Abstract:

Intuitively there are many things that non-derivatively contribute to well-being: pleasure, desire satisfaction, knowledge, friendship, love, rationality, freedom, moral virtue, and appreciation of beauty. According to pluralism, at least two different types of things non-derivatively contribute to well-being. Lopsided lives score very low in terms of some types of things that putatively non-derivatively contribute to well-being, but very high in terms of other such types of things. This chapter argues that pluralists essentially face a trilemma about lopsided lives: they must either make impl

Abstract:

Rebecca’s music offers the strongest argument for the style of musical collaboration Selznick fostered. Although earlier scholarship has focused on Hitchcock and Waxman, this chapter provides an alternative perspective informed by production records: how ideas and decisions flowed from producer, music director Forbes, and composer Franz Waxman to intermingle in one of the most compelling scores of the studio era. This chapter shows the extent to which Selznick and Forbes shaped the score’s formation and the degree to which non-original music from the preview score works in dialogue with Waxman

With all of the changes in the workforce, there is increasing strain on the delicate balance between work time and personal time. Work–family issues have also been impacted by trends such as an increase in expectations for work hours, rising numbers of women in managerial and executive positions, changes in family structures, and decisions about balancing career and life. Both researchers and organizations recognized the narrow scope of work–family balance, and have expanded the focus to include the employee’s life outside of work.

As they balanced the rights of individuals with the power of the state, Florida judges acted independently of public opinion and based their rulings on precedent and

There are several characteristics of Stölzel's Passion that demonstrate the composer's unusual approach to the genre, including a lack of named protagonists, texts couched in the present tense to heighten the immed

This chapter discusses the need for cooperation (or collaboration) to be balanced with competition, including between research groups, within a university or laboratory and between the academic research sector and industry. Healthy competition is a great motivator but unhealthy competition can be disastrous. While it is still possible for an individual scientist working alone or with a couple of graduate students or postdocs to make ground-breaking discoveries, today much experimental science requires large teams working collaboratively on a common goal or set of goals.

The chapter sets Brexit against the age-old trade-off between cooperation and control. As Nicolaïdis argues, the European order has undergone a number of important transformations -accentuated since Maastricht- which have increasingly altered the balance between these two poles, fostering greater calls to ‘take back control’—the political mantra of the Brexiteers. Accordingly, Britain’s predicament lies in the tension between different meanings of ‘control’, which can be explored through Kant’s three categories of law.

The rationale for the selected corpus of song settings is then outlined (focus on an important time period for transmission of Baudelaire’s poetry across Europe; analysis of groups of Baudelaire poems set to music by a given composer; focus on scores which converge around the mélodie genre).

To say that a patient has a ‘right’ is to say both that the patient has a ‘claim’ against the clinician for X and that the clinician owes a correlative ‘duty’ to X to the patient.

Overriding a right can be either justified (an ‘infringement’) or unjustified (a ‘violation’).

The best proxy for the end of epilepsy is the complete cessation of seizures and the permanent ending of the need for further treatment.

Unfortunately, though, not all patients can reach this point, and it is for these patients that we seek improvements in the future. The end of epilepsy is not always easy to predict at the beginning.
