"She, This in Blak" takes a fresh look at Chaucer's great Trojan
romance, Troilus and Criseyde, in light of recent scholarship on
late scholastic discourses on representation and causality as they
pertain to human perception and judgment. This study also
contributes to a growing literature on the impact of scholastic
psychological theory upon contemporary cultural forms by examining
the way in which late medieval accounts of perception and cognition
can illuminate the construction of the poem's subjects, including
one of the most compelling and controversial figures in medieval
literature, Chaucer's Criseyde. By examining Chaucer's depiction of
Troilus, Pandarus, and Criseyde within this contemporary cultural
context, "She, This in Blak" offers a better grounded and more
historically illuminating view of the poem than is provided by
psychological readings based on modern constructions of
intentionality.

Practical Data Analytics for Innovation in Medicine: Building Real
Predictive and Prescriptive Models in Personalized Healthcare and
Medical Research Using AI, ML, and Related Technologies, Second
Edition discusses the needs of healthcare and medicine in the 21st
century, explaining how data analytics play an important and
revolutionary role. With healthcare effectiveness and economics
facing growing challenges, there is a rapidly emerging movement to
fortify medical treatment and administration by tapping the
predictive power of big data, such as predictive analytics, which
can bolster patient care, reduce costs, and deliver greater
efficiencies across a wide range of operational functions. Sections
bring a historical perspective, highlight the importance of using
predictive analytics to help solve health crisis such as the
COVID-19 pandemic, provide access to practical step-by-step
tutorials and case studies online, and use exercises based on
real-world examples of successful predictive and prescriptive tools
and systems. The final part of the book focuses on specific
technical operations related to quality, cost-effective medical and
nursing care delivery and administration brought by practical
predictive analytics.
The New Public Library is an in-depth design study of an exemplary
collection of recent public libraries, and the historical
precedents that have informed and inspired their development. An
introductory overview presents seven critical themes that
characterize public library design, past and present, highlighting
the expressive architectural potential of this unique and important
building type. A survey of over 40 historically significant
libraries traces the development of the building type over time,
with a primary focus on precedents from the US and northern Europe,
where the modern public library originated, and its design has been
most comprehensively developed. A selection of nearly 50
contemporary projects from the past 30 years focuses on the most
current developments in public library design, with a diverse and
varied collection of work by over 35 regional, national, and
international design firms. Highly visual in its presentation, the
study includes 885 color photographs and illustrations, and 195
scale drawings.
