Full text
Abstract:
As one of the sustainable forms of energy production, wind farms are becoming increasingly prevalent, changing the global landscapes and seascapes. They are often met with resistance, primarily because of their presumed ‘eyesore’ effect. This chapter reviews several arguments based upon imagination and comparison to art that are intended to mitigate the negative aesthetic impact of wind farms. It concludes that the most promising aesthetic argument in support of wind farms must be a part of a larger aesthetics of sustainability informed by life values, sometimes referred to as the ‘thick’ sense of aesthetics. At the same time, life values, such as sustainability, cannot by themselves determine the aesthetic values, since purely sensuous, ‘thin,’ considerations, such as colors, shapes, and spatial arrangements, constitute the core of aesthetic values. Most importantly, aesthetic disputes involving public space call for civic environmentalism: empowerment and inclusion of those whose aesthetic lives are affected.

Full text
Abstract:
Substantial problems attach to both of the fundamental criteria that need to be met for involuntary treatment in conventional mental health legislation—the presence of a ‘mental disorder’ and a risk of harm to self or others. The boundaries of ‘mental disorder’ are of necessity loosely drawn, with substantial blurring at the edges and contested views about where these should lie. ‘Values’—for example, when does ‘sadness’ become a ‘depressive illness’—play a significant role in determining when a diagnosis of a ‘disorder’ is warranted. Precision in the assessment of ‘risk’ is poor, especially for those infrequent or rare harms that we are most concerned to prevent. In general psychiatric practice, the prediction of suicide or serious acts of violence to others is of severely limited value. Even with ‘state-of-the-art’ risk assessment measures, ‘false positives’ overwhelm ‘true positives’. Significant costs attach to an emphasis on risk assessment.

Full text
Abstract:
In this chapter, the meaning of ‘decision-making capacity’ is examined. A ‘procedural’, ‘value-free’ notion of its assessment is inadequate, especially in difficult cases where a consideration of a person’s ‘values’ may be unavoidable. An approach influenced by Davidson’s ‘radical interpretation’ is proposed, in which, under the ‘Principle of Charity’, a person’s system of beliefs and values is presumed to be, by and large, ‘coherent’. It asks how coherent are the present beliefs underlying a person’s apparently unwise treatment decision—how well do they fit with their previously deeply held beliefs and value commitments? A disruption of coherence may suggest an undermining of a person’s decision-making ability. The meaning of ‘best interests’ is also clarified in this context; it may mean giving effect to the person’s deep value commitments. Problematic situations are examined where questions arise concerning whether changes in a person’s values are of a nature that undermine decision-making or not. Dementia is an example.

Full text
Abstract:
This chapter seeks to answer the question: how much should we pay for a public health program? We often have to decide how to allocate funds to different public health programs or decide whether a new medical test or treatment is worth the cost. How can we make such decisions fairly? The author first works through some examples of commonly used decision trees to make these judgments in a rigorous and fair way. Some decision trees are used to solve value of information problems, which are used to perform cost-benefit analysis to determine whether we want to pay for a new service, test, or treatment if we are focused on lowering the costs of operations. The reader will then understand how to perform cost-effectiveness analysis to identify under what circumstances a more expensive new service, test, or treatment might be worth the cost because it meaningfully improves health outcomes.

Abstract:
Echocardiography is the gold-standard investigation for assessing replacement valve function and detecting pathology. Transthoracic echocardiography (TTE) is sufficient for assessing patients routinely with no evidence of pathology. However, in patients with suspected dysfunction, the addition of transoesophageal echocardiography is usually necessary. Stress echocardiography may also be necessary in patients with exertional symptoms unexplained by the resting TTE.There are comprehensive International Guidelines for the echocardiographic assessment of prosthetic valves1 and the management of clinical problems.2,3 Stented valves placed using transcatheter techniques are rapidly becoming established.4 The aim of this chapter is to summarize the normal appearance of replacement valves by position and also to describe the diagnosis of pathology.

Abstract:
Chapter 2 is devoted to identifying value judgments in pharmacy and separating ethical from other evaluations. It first focuses on separating questions of fact from value judgments, focusing on a pair of cases. One involves a woman contemplating use of over-the-counter diet pills, which the pharmacist recognized as containing herbs that might lead to weight loss but could also present significant side effects. Among the claims, the pharmacist discovers a number of value judgments—that the drug should be used on a short-term basis, that certain effects are “bad,” and that it is bad to weigh more than a specified norm. The second case involves the treatment of dental pain and the question of whether pain is a fact or a value judgment. The second half of the chapter distinguishes between ethical and nonethical value judgments. It takes up a case of a patient needing a prescription refill when the prescribing physician is unavailable to authorize it.

Abstract:
Psychiatry belongs to both science and the humanities, but it has often been more concerned with being evidence based than value based. One consequence has been the unacknowledged acceptance of values prevailing in the culture. Another, despite growing attention to ethical concerns, has been the lack of a clearly articulated set of values with which to approach the complexities of clinical work. Four core values—prevention and treatment of disease, patient centeredness, relief of suffering, and enhancement of functioning—can be seen to emerge from psychiatry’s roots in humanistic medicine. Each of these values needs to be counterbalanced by the others and interpreted from the perspective of the clinician’s and the patient’s spiritual or religious worldview. Together, they offer a rationale for assessing the patient’s disorder, chief concern, and prerequisites for flourishing. In this chapter, three vignettes illustrate the utility of these core values in approaching challenging clinical cases.

Abstract:
This book develops a theory of extraterritorial human rights obligations in international law. It links debates on human rights theory with those relating to extraterritoriality and merges accounts of economic social and cultural rights with those of civil and political rights. It advances four main arguments aimed at changing the way we think about extraterritoriality of human rights. First, it is argued that the questions regarding extraterritoriality are really about justifying the allocation of human rights obligations to specific states. Second, the book shows that human rights as found in international human rights treaties are underpinned by the values of integrity and equality. Third, it is argued that these same values justify the allocation of human rights obligations towards specific individuals to public institutions—including states—that hold political power over said individuals. And fourth, the book argues that title to territory is best captured by the value of stability, as opposed to integrity and equality. If these arguments are successful, their consequence is a major shift in how we view extraterritorial human rights obligations. Namely, the upshot is that all standards in international human rights treaties that count as human rights require that a threshold of jurisdiction, understood as political power, is met. However, on the present account, this threshold is not just a conceptual necessity but a normative one as well. It is needed because it not only describes, but also justifies the allocation of obligations.

Abstract:
The fourth chapter addresses Brahminism. Against contemporary understandings of Brahminism as completely antagonistic to (and antagonized by) Vīraśaivas, I read the relevant stories in the Ragaḷegaḷu as accommodating Brahmins who are also avid devotees of Śiva. In my approach I use a basic distinction between “Brahminness”—a birth-given condition that allows for the ceding of some Brahminical practices for maintaining devotional values when a social context generates conflict—and “Brahminism,” which stands for the set of traditional and orthodox Brahminical values of social difference and separation. While Brahminism is met with staunch resistance in the stories of the Ragaḷegaḷu, Brahminness is accommodated under certain conditions. Read with this distinction in mind, I argue, the Ragaḷegaḷu points to the wish of Harihara, himself a Brahmin, to guide the traditional Brahmin in the unorthodox social terrain of Bhakti while allowing him to maintain his traditional religious and social identity as a Brahmin.

Abstract:
The American South: A Very Short Introduction explores the American South, a distinctive place with a dramatic history. It is a cultural crossroads, where Western Europe met West Africa in a colonial slave society. The Civil War and civil rights movement transformed the South and remain a part of a vibrant and contested public memory. Moreover, the South's pronounced traditionalism in customs and values have always contended with the forces of modernization and the continuing challenges of racial tension. This VSI looks at Southerners' diverse creative responses to these experiences, in literature, film, music, and cuisine, which have had worldwide influence.

Abstract:
Questions about artistic value are not nicely uniform or all raised at the same level of inquiry. In this article they are divided up into three groups of issues: meta-aesthetic, ontological, and normative. The first of these concern the nature of a judgement of artistic value. The second concerns the nature of such value itself. The last concerns the core question of what is artistically valuable about art, and how one brings the various valuable features of a work to bear in arriving at an evaluation of the work. Though these are different questions, there are not sharp boundaries between them. The article begins with the latter two issues, saving meta-aesthetics for last.

Abstract:
This chapter explores the methods for valuing health, sometimes known as preference elicitation techniques. It begins by describing and reviewing the main cardinal techniques used in the health economics literature for valuing health states (i.e. those methods that produce responses that are already on some interval scale). Different techniques can generate different values, and so this chapter also addresses the advantages and disadvantages of each technique. It goes on to examine the variants of each technique and the resulting implications of these for the values obtained. Finally, this chapter addresses the question of who should be asked to value health states, and considers whether values should be based on preferences (as is usually the case in economics) or experiences.

Full text
Abstract:
Posterior urethral valves is the most common congenital cause of lower urinary tract obstruction in males, and a common cause (15–17%) for end-stage renal disease in childhood. Most commonly, posterior urethral valves is suspected on basis of a screening antenatal ultrasound. Ultrasound will not detect posterior urethral valves itself, but recognizes the consequences of lower urinary tract obstruction with a dilated thick-walled bladder and dilation of the prostatic portion of the urethra. After birth, urine drainage has to be secured by placement of a bladder catheter, and imaging is needed to confirm the presence of the urethral valves and estimate the degree of damage to the kidney. Consequences of posterior urethral valves depend on the degree of renal dysplasia and bladder dysfunction. Prevention or minimization of such consequences by intrauterine urine drainage has not definitively shown a benefit of early vesico-amniotic shunting.

Abstract:
The arterial valves guarding the entrances to the aorta and pulmonary trunk have many similarities to the mitral and tricuspid valves in the atrioventricular region of the heart. Despite these similarities, there are significant differences in the formation and structure of the arterial and atrioventricular valves. The most fundamental of these relate to the lineage origins of the cells forming the primitive cushions. Although the fate of the different lineages remains unclear, each makes a permanent contribution to the mature valve. Arterial valve formation is intrinsically linked to cushion formation and outflow tract septation; therefore abnormalities in these processes have a profound impact on development of the valve leaflets. In this chapter we highlight the main differences in the development and structure of the arterial valves, compared with the atrioventricular valves, show how abnormalities in these developmental processes can result in arterial valve anomalies, and discuss controversies within the literature.

Full text
Abstract:
This chapter argues that the need to be recognized and to be accepted, respected, forgiven, and loved is a fundamental disposition in human existence. My existence is conditioned by the value of social recognition alongside the organic values of my biological life. Yet, the need for recognition can even be stronger than other needs rooted in my organic values. We as human persons can choose to renounce, at least in part, our material gains (e.g. a part of one’s salary) in order to achieve social recognition (e.g. the acknowledgement of one’s capacities). There are three paradigmatic forms of recognition: Love, whereby the person experiences the recognition of his particular needful nature in order to attain that affective security that allows him to articulate his needs; Law, the subject experiences that juridical institutions guarantee the recognition of his autonomy; and Solidarity, the subject experiences the recognition of the value of his capacities.
