Puzzles in contemporary political philosophy - An introduction for South African students (Paperback): L. Vincent, J.... Puzzles in contemporary political philosophy - An introduction for South African students (Paperback)
L. Vincent, J. Steyn-Kotze, L. Hamilton
R455 R421 Discovery Miles 4 210 Save R34 (7%) Ships in 7 - 10 working days

Political philosophy is a field of study which aims to clarify our most fundamental ethical questions as human beings living in societies under conditions of scarce resources and unequal power: How should we live? What does a good life look like? What kind of social and political arrangements are most conducive to living good lives? Puzzles in contemporary political philosophy shows the relevance of classical and contemporary thinkers to our own lives and the world we live in today. This introduction uses a wealth of real-world examples drawn from the South African context to explore some of these questions: We value freedom but where should the limits to our freedom lie? What do we mean by equality? Do we mean that we want people to be equally happy, or equally successful, or equally well fed? We think of democracies as places where citizens can enjoy a certain measure of justice, but what is meant by "justice"? Is it a particular form of distribution of goods, of services, of opportunities? Is justice the same as "equality" or is there a difference? Are some forms of inequality "just"? Is justness the same as "fairness"? Written in simple, jargon-free language, this introduction to some of the most important debates in contemporary politics is an essential guide for undergraduate South African students of political philosophy.

A Guide to Weight Loss Surgery - Professional and Personal Views (Hardcover): Rhonda L. Hamilton A Guide to Weight Loss Surgery - Professional and Personal Views (Hardcover)
Rhonda L. Hamilton
R2,818 Discovery Miles 28 180 Ships in 10 - 15 working days

With obesity rising at alarming rates in the U.S., UK, and developed countries around the world--so much that the U.S. Department of Health has officially classified obesity as an "illness" and the World Health Organization has dubbed it a "pandemic"--weight-loss surgery is also on the rise. Traditional weight-loss programs such as diet, exercise, and pharmaceuticals, are only effective for significant and sustained weight loss for about 10 percent of all people who try. The results are even more dismal for the obese aiming to lose not just a few pounds, but 50, 75, or more. Yet, the health of these individuals lies in the balance, because obesity or morbid obesity (100 pounds or more overweight by medical standards) increases by 50 to 100 percent their risk of developing heart disease, high blood pressure, diabetes, and certain cancers. Weight-loss surgery, however, is effective in bringing 80 percent of obese people to or close to average weight for their height, explains Dr. Hamilton, an Instructor at Harvard Medical School. Even more impressive, most sustain that weight loss for at least 10 years. Hamilton doesn't perform such surgeries, but this Tufts-educated doctor has more than general medical insight. She had the surgery herself six years ago, reducing from the size 20 she was then to the size 8 she is now. "Surgical weight loss is unequivocally more effective than any other method," she says. Certainly there are complexities, risks, and some "grueling decisions" involved. But life as an obese person can be more risky to health and more grueling to mental health, she adds. The National Institutes of Health apparently agree, as NIH has issued recommendations for morbidly obesepeople to have weight-loss surgery. In the United States alone weight-loss surgeries have risen from 12,700 in 1988 to more than 78,000 in 2005. "Still, fewer than one percent of the patients who fit the requirements for weight-loss surgery are ever referred to such a specialist," says Hamilton. "And in blacks, where the prevalence of obesity is even higher, the referral rates are even lower," she adds. Hamilton makes clear the rewards, and the risks, of surgery that reduces stomach size or removes a piece of the intestine so calories cannot be absorbed. This book includes interviews with previously obese males and females who've had the surgery, as well as descriptions of the procedures, recovery times, costs, and insurance issues.

The Oxford Handbook of Maritime Archaeology (Hardcover): Alexis Catsambis, Benford, Donny L. Hamilton The Oxford Handbook of Maritime Archaeology (Hardcover)
Alexis Catsambis, Benford, Donny L. Hamilton
R6,617 Discovery Miles 66 170 Ships in 12 - 17 working days

The Oxford Handbook of Maritime Archaeology is a comprehensive survey of the field as seen through the eyes of nearly fifty scholars at a time when maritime archaeology has established itself as a mature branch of archaeology. This volume draws on many of the distinct and universal aspects of maritime archaeology, bringing them together under four main themes: the research process, ships and shipwrecks, maritime and nautical culture, and issues of preservation and management.
The first section of the book deals with the best practices for locating, documenting, excavating, and analyzing submerged sites. This methodological foundation is followed by a sample of shipwreck studies from around the world as scholars trace the regional development of ships and seafaring. Chosen to balance the traditional core regions of maritime archaeology with important but lesser-studied areas, it aims at offering an international account of the study of submerged sites. Reflecting the growing number of scholars who study past maritime cultures, but not shipwrecks, the third section of the book addresses various aspects of the maritime landscape and ethnography above and below the water. The final chapters then approach maritime archaeology in a broader context, moving beyond archaeological sites to discuss the archaeological record in general within legal, preservation, and management frameworks.
Taken together, these individual and original articles provide a valuable resource that summarizes the current state of the field of maritime archaeology and offers insight into the future of this established and growing discipline.

Affect, Cognition and Stereotyping - Interactive Processes in Group Perception (Hardcover): Diane M. Mackie, David L. Hamilton Affect, Cognition and Stereotyping - Interactive Processes in Group Perception (Hardcover)
Diane M. Mackie, David L. Hamilton
R1,780 Discovery Miles 17 800 Ships in 12 - 17 working days

This volume presents a collection of chapters exploring the interface of cognitive and affective processes in stereotyping. Stereotypes and prejudice have long been topics of interest in social psychology, but early literature and research in this area focused on affect alone, while later studies focused primarily on cognitive factors associated with information processing strategies. This volume integrates the roles of both affect and cognition with regard to the formation, representation, and modification of stereotypes and the implications of these processes for the escalation or amelioration of intergroup tensions.
Key Features
* Reviewed Development, maintenance, and change of stereotypes and prejudice
* Interaction of affective and cognitive processes as antecendents of stereotyping and prejudice
* Affect and cognitive consequences of group categorization, preception, and interaction
* The interaction of cognitive and affective processes in social perception
* Award Winning Chapter "The Esses et al," was the 1992 winner of the Otto Klineberg award given by the Society for the Psychological Study of Social Issues, which cited the chapter as having offered, "a substantial advance in our understanding of basic psychological processes, underlying racism, stereotyping, and prejudice."

Foreword by Maurice McInerney

Create a new reality by guiding your team to successful changes in special education!

Meeting the challenge of teaching a child with a disability?optimizing the potential of a classroom of troubled students...seeing the look of understanding on a child?s face?these are the ideals of special education. Making these ideals reality often requires change. As an educator, you realize this, and you would like to make a difference in your school. But how?

Guiding Change in Special Education offers a case study to illustrate the seven stages of school change. Then, stage by stage, Havelock and Hamilton provide explanations and advice for incorporating each stage into your change process. At the core of the process are these change agents:

  • Local educators trying to ensure that no child with a disability is left behind
  • Parents advocating change because they care deeply about the cause
  • Consultants available to help people act more effectively as a team
  • Academics able to efficiently pinpoint needs within special education
  • Experts with specialized knowledge to offer solutions to problems
  • Informal marketing and sales people to help get the word out
  • The "Linker"?an important player who connects people and resources, finds support, and helps organize the group

Making changes can turn ideals into reality?applying the right process and building a team of dedicated people will yield success.

Graph Representation Learning (Paperback): William L. Hamilton Graph Representation Learning (Paperback)
William L. Hamilton
R1,637 Discovery Miles 16 370 Ships in 10 - 15 working days

Graph-structured data is ubiquitous throughout the natural and social sciences, from telecommunication networks to quantum chemistry. Building relational inductive biases into deep learning architectures is crucial for creating systems that can learn, reason, and generalize from this kind of data. Recent years have seen a surge in research on graph representation learning, including techniques for deep graph embeddings, generalizations of convolutional neural networks to graph-structured data, and neural message-passing approaches inspired by belief propagation. These advances in graph representation learning have led to new state-of-the-art results in numerous domains, including chemical synthesis, 3D vision, recommender systems, question answering, and social network analysis. This book provides a synthesis and overview of graph representation learning. It begins with a discussion of the goals of graph representation learning as well as key methodological foundations in graph theory and network analysis. Following this, the book introduces and reviews methods for learning node embeddings, including random-walk-based methods and applications to knowledge graphs. It then provides a technical synthesis and introduction to the highly successful graph neural network (GNN) formalism, which has become a dominant and fast-growing paradigm for deep learning with graph data. The book concludes with a synthesis of recent advancements in deep generative models for graphs-a nascent but quickly growing subset of graph representation learning.

Wagner, one of our most distinguished wildlife biologists, is a strong critic of ecological practices in the national parks. This book provides an assessment of the ecological history of Yellowstone's northern range, since before the park existed, showing the impact of US Park Service policies on the health of the areas they oversee. He demonstrates that elk had been historically rare throughout the region and that overgrazing by elk has seriously degraded the landscape and altered the structure of the area. This is a major contribution to reconstructing the ecology of this region over the course of the past 500 years. It is also a critique of US Park Service management policies and their stewardship of the nation's most cherished natural areas. Wagner's book will generate substantial attention and debate both in the scientific and policy/management communities.
