When Your Spouse Has a Stroke

When Your Spouse Has a Stroke

Sara Palmer; Jeffrey B. Palmer

Johns Hopkins University Press
2011
pokkari
A stroke can alter two people's lives in an instant. For the person who has had a stroke, simple tasks suddenly become difficult or impossible. For that person's partner, life seems to revolve mostly around the stroke survivor's needs. Such a drastic change naturally requires making many, sometimes taxing, adjustments. In this book, two experts in stroke recovery help couples deal with the impact of stroke on their lives and their relationship. Drs. Sara and Jeffrey Palmer explain how to overcome three major challenges: * providing quality care for your partner* maintaining or rebuilding your relationship* caring for yourself as an individual The book invites you into the lives of real couples who are themselves coping with these challenges. Their experiences model how you can improve essential aspects of your relationship, including communication, roles and responsibilities, and sexuality. A list of practical tips summarizes each chapter, providing a handy reference guide to meeting each day's challenges. More than just a discussion of the medical and practical aspects of stroke and stroke recovery, this book focuses on the emotional, psychological, and social consequences of stroke and the deeply personal side of caregiving. When Your Spouse Has a Stroke will relieve your burden and strengthen your partnership.

Drug Discovery and Development

Drug Discovery and Development

Michael Williams; Malick Jeffrey B.

Humana Press Inc.
1987
sidottu
The conceptual process of drug discovery is one that is often the result of an identified need in a defined disease area. This need represents a mandate from the marketing department of a phar- maceutical company or a breakthrough at the research level that has agreed applicability in response to a valid therapeutic demand. Although the intelligent design and development of new thera- peutic entities, as evidenced by Sir James Black's H -receptor an- 2 tagonist cimetidine (Tagamet), is intellectually satisfying, many novel drugs arise from serendipity, from the chance observation of the research scientist or the clinician, that a compound has unex- pected actions of use for the treatment of human disease states. Drugs that have been identified by this route include the antipsy- chotic chlorpromazine and the putative anxiolytic buspirone. The events surrounding the process of drug discovery and de- velopment are the theme of the present volume, which attempts to present, in a logical and lucid manner, the complexity of a process that is often naively assumed to represent nothing more than the identification of a new compound and its rapid introduction into humans, free of such complications as efficacy, selectivity, safety, bioavailability, toxicity, and need.

A Revised Recruiting Resource Model for Achieving the Army Personnel Strategy

A Revised Recruiting Resource Model for Achieving the Army Personnel Strategy

Jason M Ward; Jeffrey B Wenger; Irineo Cabreros; Daniel Schwam; Craig A Bond; Samuel Absher

RAND Corporation
2023
pokkari
Using an updated version of RAND's Recruiting Resource Model, the authors analyze the relationship between observed and alternative mixes of Army spending on recruiting resources (advertising, recruiters, and bonuses) and recruiting outcomes, particularly contracts and accessions. Results indicate that TV advertising and, to a lesser extent, recruiters are more cost-effective than bonuses at increasing enlistments.

Fulfilling the Export Potential of Small and Medium Firms

Fulfilling the Export Potential of Small and Medium Firms

Brian Levy; Albert Berry; Jeffrey B. Nugent

Springer
1999
sidottu
Fulfilling the Export Potential of Small and Medium Firms addresses the question, `How can economic policy contribute to a strong export performance by small and medium enterprises (SMEs) in developing countries?' In today's increasingly integrated world economy, such a performance can make a significant difference to the growth, employment creation and income distribution of many developing countries. The study uses information from specifically designed surveys of SME exporters in Japan, Indonesia, Korea and Colombia, together with a range of evidence from other sources, to ascertain what types of support within the areas of technology, marketing and finance are most useful to SME exporters and how such support can best be provided to them. The quality of the support systems is found to vary widely among the four countries. Finally, a number of policy conclusions are put forward.

Tunisia's Economic Development

Tunisia's Economic Development

Mustapha K. Nabli; Jeffrey B. Nugent

TAYLOR FRANCIS LTD
2022
sidottu
This book identifies the differences in growth and development, and the various factors lying behind them, across both Middle East and North African (MENA) and East Asian countries over the 1960-2020 period. It considers a very wide range of factors, compares initial situations, institutions, and government policies, the dynamic responses to changing circumstances, and discusses the inability of the governments of the MENA region to achieve not only political reform, but also the kinds of economic reform that would allow their citizens to prosper in an increasingly globalized world. The book focuses on Tunisia. Since its independence in 1956 until 2010, Tunisia had considerable success relative to many other MENA countries, but was somewhat less successful relative to East Asian countries. Since 2010, however, while transitioning away from autocracy to democracy, it has been in rather serious economic decline. The book highlights how both the factors identified as enabling Tunisia’s initial success and those leading to its subsequent decline can provide many useful insights for improving the management of economic development across the whole MENA region and perhaps also to developing countries throughout the world.

There Is More Than One Way To Lead

There Is More Than One Way To Lead

Samuel T. Hunter; Jeffrey B. Lovelace

Cambridge University Press
2022
pokkari
The charismatic, ideological, and pragmatic (CIP) theory of leadership has emerged as a novel framework for thinking about the varying ways leaders can influence followers. The theory is based on the principle of equifinality, or the notion that there are multiple pathways to the same outcome. Researchers of the CIP theory have proposed that leaders are effective by engaging in one, or a mix of, three leader pathways: the charismatic approach focused on an emotionally evocative vision, an ideological approach focused on core beliefs and values, or a pragmatic approach focused on an appeal of rationality and problem solving. Formation of pathways and unique follower responses are described. The more than 15 years of empirical work investigating the theory are summarized, and the theory is compared and contrasted to other commonly studied and popular frameworks of leadership. Strengths, weaknesses, and avenues for future investigation of the CIP theory are discussed.

Speaking with Substance

Speaking with Substance

Kathryn M. de Luna; Jeffrey B. Fleisher

Springer International Publishing AG
2018
nidottu
This volume proposes a supplemental approach to interdisciplinary historical reconstructions that draw on archaeological and linguistic data. The introduction lays out the supplemental approach, situating it in the broader context of similar interdisciplinary research methods in other world regions. Reflecting the arguments of the volume and its goal to document the process rather than the outcome of interdisciplinary collaboration, the volume is organized into two two-chapter case studies. Within each case study, the non-specialist develops an historical interpretation using their own research findings and published data from the other discipline.This chapter is followed by critical commentary from the specialist, a dialogue clarifying the commentary and specialists’ methods, and a second short historical interpretation that deploys insights from the supplemental approach. The conclusion reflects on the challenges of disciplinary conventions to interdisciplinary research and the contribution of the supplemental approach to efforts to know the history of oral societies in Africa and beyond

Institutet för utbildningsrätt – IfU – höll i november 2016 en nationell konferens på temat likvärdig utbildning. Detta är den andra antologin med bidrag på det temat. I antologin diskuteras vad likvärdig utbildning, en likvärdig skola och en skola för alla betyder. Analyserna spänner över stora områden såsom vad människors lika värde har med likvärdighet i skolan att göra, till den motsättning som kan ses mellan en likvärdig skola för alla och skolans kompensatoriska uppdrag. Historiska, filosofiska och rättsvetenskapliga analyser blandas på ett intressant och givande sätt. Juridiska fakulteten har inrättat IfU, som har till syfte att på bredast möjliga sätt inspirera till och stödja forskning och utbildning inom det utbildningsrättsliga området. Med utbildningsrätt menar IfU insikt i och analys av - alla de regler som styr målen för, innehållet i, organisationen av, styrningen av, tillsynen över och ansvaret för utbildning, - de bevekelsegrunder och uppfattningar som ligger bakom dessa regler och - de bevekelsegrunder och uppfattningar inom utbildningsområdet som inte vunnit gehör eller av andra skäl inte kommit till uttryck i skriftliga regler.
