Abstract:

By the mid-1950s, a linear accelerator suitable for treating deep-seated tumors was built in the Stanford Microwave Laboratory and installed at Stanford Hospital. It served as a prototype for commercial units that were built later. Since that time, medical linear accelerators gained in popularity as major radiation therapy devices, but few basic training materials on their operation had been produced for use by medical professionals. C.J. Karzmark, a radiological physicist at Stanford University, was involved with medical linacs since their development, and he agreed to collaborate with Robert

Abstract:

The introductory chapter explains some basic mechanisms of financial markets and how they were traditionally justified by economic theory. It introduces some of the questions about financial markets that can be asked from a perspective of justice. Financial markets have often been treated as the prototype of well-functioning markets, but they deviate from textbook models in a number of ways: their products are legal artifices often at some distance from the real economy; their participants often do not carry the full risk of their behavior and instead of always tending toward an equilibrium th

Abstract:

Inheritance plays several distinct but crucial roles in the representation of linguistic information in Head-Driven Phrase Structure Grammar and other constraint-based frameworks. The primary use of inheritance is in the definition of the type signature, a specification of what counts as a well-formed linguistic object. In more recent developments of the theory, inheritance is also used to express substantive linguistic generalizations. This latter use is quite different from the original problem that inheritance was introduced into HPSG to solve, and there are other knowledge representation d

I review developments in theory and methodology that may allow us to begin creating innovative forms of organizing, rather than rest content with studying them after they have emerged. We now have the conceptual and technical apparatus to prototype organization designs at small scale, cheaply and fast. The process of organization re-design can be seen in terms of multiple stages. It begins with careful observation of phenomena. Qualitative or indeed quantitative induction (i.e. data mining) can play a critical role here.

Abstract:

At the core of Emerson’s philosophy is his view as a naturalist that we are “made of the same atoms as the world is.” In counterpoint to this identity, he noted the fluid evolution and diversity of combinations and configurations of those atoms. Thus, he argued, our “relation and connection” to the world are not occasional or recreational, but “everywhere and always,” and also reciprocal, ongoing, and creative. He declared he would be a naturalist, which for him meant being a knowledgeable “lover of nature.” Emerson’s famous insistence on an “original relation to the universe” centered on mora

Abstract:

The concept of relation, first defined by Aristotle and then treated by the Neoplatonist commentators on his Categories, serves as a basic notion in Theodore’s defence of the icons. The chapter treats different terms for the relation between image and prototype and certain illustrations that Theodore adduces in order to highlight his position. He argues that if there is such a thing as a human being, then there must also be an image of it, since every entity is the prototype of its image. He has to modify this position, however, and says eventually that an entity is at least potentially a para

Abstract:

Axial spondyloarthritis (axSpA) is an inflammatory arthritis of the sacroiliac joints and spine. The prototype is ankylosing spondylitis, the radiographic form of the disease; however, more recently, an earlier or less-differentiated presentation has been described termed non-radiographic axial spondyloarthritis (nr-axSpA). Extra-articular manifestations commonly include anterior uveitis, inflammatory bowel disease, and psoriasis. There is a strong association with the human leukocyte antigen B27 (HLA-B27) allele, and the prevalence of the disease tends to follow the frequency of the allele. E

The chapter also addresses teaching as the responsible conveyance of purpose and meaning.

The ideal musical body also possesses healing powers, restoring order to sonic dysfunction. The exemplary performer of this therapeutic music was David, and his most notorious patient w

Even the most ordinary people become artists when they try to create proofs of love: be it to a beloved adult person, or a child, a grandmother, or some close relative or friend.

Many features of the gift, therefore, reappear in the artwork: its exemption from the everyday use (i.e. its typical lack of usefulness), the stroke of genius, and the subtle uncanniness that makes it difficult to establish and maintain a non-ambivalent, entirely benign relationship with the artwork just as with the gi

The dispositif recognises the distribution of the pulse – the force of intensities in the body of the spectator and in the image – in terms of an energetic exchange and expenditure.
