Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not
used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad
quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are
images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to
keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the
original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain
imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made
available for future generations to enjoy.

• Concretely addresses what happens when new teachers try to
enact inquiry-based and dialogical pedagogy within standardized
schools • Provides realistic access and insight into the
professional lives of novice teachers in ways that invite
preservice and other novice teachers to reflect on the complexities
of classroom engagement • Unpacks tension between the
standardization of education and the advocates for pedagogy that
supports individual inquiries and dialogues within literacy
classrooms • Demonstrates methods for prospective and novice ELA
and English teachers to “wobble,” or enact inquiry-based or
dialogic pedagogy in the context of structured and inflexible
schooling systems.
An intelligent machine built to study methods of social warfare
struggles to understand and communicate the lived experience of
race In a narrative full of social significance and poetically
decorated with monks, vampires, and mythical statistics, Race in
the Machine presents a world where the stories we use to explain
race all simultaneously exist, within and around us, dictating our
interactions and innermost beliefs. The nameless protagonist, an
enigmatic social mechanic at Nearbay Institute, living in a
population of socially connected intelligent machines, encounters a
simple query in the context of an introductory lecture: "What
exactly is race? And what is it in the context of the social
machine?" This prompt guides the protagonist along a twisting
intellectual tale surrounding a series of experiments which
explore: How many racists does it take to create systems of
inequality? What role do non-racists actors play in upholding them?
How is bias learned? How does it spread? The narrator develops a
distinct understanding of race through the figurative bending of
time, dreams of a "race code" and by confronting a series of
mysterious communications that remain just outside comprehension.
Over the course of this journey, the answers to important questions
about racial inequality quietly emerge for the protagonist.
Scholarly encounters with both antagonistic colleagues and
unexpected allies, culminate when the hero is forced to reach a
devastating conclusion about themself and the world. Stirring and
luminous, Race in the Machine deftly oscillates between the
allegorically simplified and the impossibly complex to weave an
utterly unique and nuanced portrait of race in the modern world.
There is a relatively high use of complementary and alternative
medicine (CAM), especially dietary supplements, among people with
multiple sclerosis (MS). Health professionals with CAM information
can improve the quality of patient care by guiding patients away
from possibly harmful therapies and, if appropriate, towards
low-risk, possibly effective therapies.
"Dietary Supplements and Multiple Sclerosis" is meant to be
referred to when people with MS ask a question about a particular
dietary supplement. Supplements are arranged in alphabetical order
under the most commonly used name. In addition, the index contains
a listing of these common names as well as less common names that
may be encountered. The main information about the supplements is
written in a concise summary form that usually discusses only the
MS relevance of the supplement.
The supplements selected for inclusion are those with specific
MS relevance, such as those that are known to be used by people
with MS, have claimed efficacy for slowing disease progression or
relieving MS symptoms, interact with drugs commonly used to treat
MS, and potentially worsen MS or its symptoms. Also, supplements
are reviewed that are popular in the general population or are
known to have serious adverse effects.
