This volume contains refereed manuscripts prepared from
presentations made at the 2ih annual meeting of the International
Society on Oxygen Transport to Tissue (ISOTT). The meeting was held
in Hanover, NH, USA, at Dartmouth Medical School, the 3rd oldest
medical school in the USA. ISOTT attempts to produce high quality
pUblications on cutting edge topics relating to oxygen in living
systerns. The goal is to allow contributors to contribute original
data, as with a main-stream journal article, but also to voice
individual opinions and ideas in a more relaxed scientific forum.
The meeting brought together an international group of scientists
who share a common interest in the measurement and role of oxygen
in living systems. The organizers of ISOTT99 made a special effort
to bring together people from industry, medicine, and basic
sciences in order to improve the links in the chain of discovery
through to application. As a result, this volume contains
publications on a range of subjects. There are contributions from
companies on modifiers of oxygen carrying capacity (allosteric
modifiers of hemoglobin and infusible oxygen carriers or blood
substitutes); technical reports on oxygen measurement devices
including advances in near-infrared spectroscopy and imaging,
oxygen electrodes, magnetic resonance spectroscopy and imaging, and
fluorescence based measurements. There are medically related
sections on modifying and measuring tumor oxygenation in order to
improve therapy, assessment and interpretation of oxygenation in
the central nervous system, and general issues relating oxygen to
pathological conditions.
In this book, Jeff is sharing from some of his own adversities in
hopes that you will see through scripture how God's grace and mercy
helped people in the Bible, helped in Jeff's life and how God's
grace and mercy is sufficient to help you today no matter where you
are in life. The hope is that by the time you are done reading this
book, you will start to see how the Lord's grace, mercy and love is
what will help you through your situation no matter how small or
big you think it is. No matter how bad we think it is, it doesn't
matter to Him. He has already paid the ultimate sacrifice and still
wants you to come to Him, just as you are, so He can help and show
you the way through it. Jeffrey Dunn and his wife Tammy have three
young children. Jeff was born in the Milwaukee area and still
resides there today. Jeff is the youngest of four siblings. He is a
Navy veteran, serving from 1987 - 1991. He is also an avid fan of
all Wisconsin's sport teams. Jeff is an ordained deacon and also a
certified Joy Restoration/Grief Coach and Steven's Minister. By
going through these trainings, it has helped him in his own life
and in his walk with Lord, allowing him to help others by coming
alongside them.

An important issue in epistemology concerns the source of epistemic
normativity. Epistemic consequentialism maintains that epistemic
norms are genuine norms in virtue of the way in which they are
conducive to epistemic value, whatever epistemic value may be. So,
for example, the epistemic consequentialist might say that it is a
norm that beliefs should be consistent, in that holding consistent
beliefs is the best way to achieve the epistemic value of accuracy.
Thus epistemic consequentialism is structurally similar to the
family of consequentialist views in ethics. Recently, philosophers
from both formal epistemology and traditional epistemology have
shown interest in such a view. In formal epistemology, there has
been particular interest in thinking of epistemology as a kind of
decision theory where instead of maximizing expected utility one
maximizes expected epistemic utility. In traditional epistemology,
there has been particular interest in various forms of reliabilism
about justification and whether such views are analogous to-and so
face similar problems to-versions of consequentialism in ethics.
This volume presents some of the most recent work on these topics
as well as others related to epistemic consequentialism, by authors
that are sympathetic to the view and those who are critical of it.
