This unique volume teaches those in the medical fields about the scientific value of neuropsychology in assessing cognition, the 6th vital sign, as part of well integrated collaborative care. It offers physicians a comprehensive tour of the many dimensions neuropsychology can add to primary and specialized medical care across the lifespan. Noted experts examine cognitive ramifications of a wide range of medical, psychological, and neuropsychological conditions, among them brain tumors, stroke, epilepsy, pediatric and adult TBI, schizophrenia, and adult ADHD. The book’s generous selection of case examples demonstrates the benefits of cognitive assessment in building accurate diagnoses, better understanding of patient needs, and more appropriate treatment and management strategies, as well as other neuropsychologist roles in consulting, referral, and forensic areas. In addition, tables, callout boxes, review questions, and other features are included throughout the text for ease in comprehension and retention. A sampling of the coverage:· The value of neuropsychological evaluation in medical practice. · A model of collaboration between primary care and neuropsychology. · Neuropsychological assessment of extremely preterm children. · Alzheimer’s Disease and overview of dementia. · Deep brain stimulation for Parkinson’s Disease. · Neuropsychology in the 21st century: the rise of multicultural assessment. · Neuropsychological interventions for individuals with brain injury.

In November 1974, a young woman called Sylvia Tredwin goes missing. Nobody has the faintest idea where she's gone. She was wearing only a light skirt and T-shirt, didn't take anything with her, no suitcase, nothing. Simply went out one dark evening and never returned.Some say she went off with another man, because there'd already been talk in the small Somerset village of Petheram that she's that type of woman - attractive, flirty with it, dressed too provocatively. But her husband, Bruce Tredwin, doesn't believe a word of the callous whisperings of the locals as they gossip about his outsider wife. So he never gives up searching for her.A fortnight later on a stormy winter's night he finds her. She's naked in a place called Flinder's Field, wandering aimlessly, badly bruised and in total shock. But what she says to him will astound everyone. She says she's been abducted by aliens, and she was never to be the same again, with tragic consequences...Forty years later and George Lee is coming back to Petheram, the village of his birth. His estranged father has died and there are things his mother would like him to sort out. George hates the village, couldn't wait to get out and make a life for himself as a writer of cheap and gory thrillers. He notices that Adam Tredwin, Sylvia Tredwin's son, has also returned to Petheram. As children, the two used to be friends, briefly, before Adam's father was killed in the 1980s by a hit-and-run driver and Sylvia took him away from the village.But it's when George begins to tidy out his father's loft and slowly begins to learn more details about Sylvia Tredwin's disappearance that he starts to uncover dark secrets and hidden truths - discoveries that will peel back the decades to reveal a labyrinthine world of madness, jealousies, deceit, lies and murder. He little knows his idle quest to find out the truth behind Sylvia Tredwin's abduction will have profound and dangerous consequences for all concerned.D. M. Mitchell pens yet anther taut psychological thriller and murder mystery, set in the claustrophobic world of a small Somerset village, with a bevy of believable characters and a plot that twists and turns in Mitchell's inimitable style to a deliciously shocking and unexpected conclusion.

Is the U.S. Army Field Artillery Prepared to Support the Next Major Combat Operation

Is the U.S. Army Field Artillery Prepared to Support the Next Major Combat Operation

U. S. Army Command and General Staff Col

In 2007, three former brigade combat team commanders authored a white paper and sent it to the Army Chief of Staff entitled The King and I: The Impending Crisis in the Field Artillery's Ability to Provide Fire Support to Maneuver Commanders. The paper details the authors' concerns as maneuver commanders with the ability of the field artillery to support maneuver operations. This book examines Operation COBRA to determine how the corps commanders employed field artillery when conducting offensive operations and identifies key concepts that were used to ensure success.The three areas that were seen as crucial to the success of offensive operations were the ability to mass artillery fires, integrate close air support into the ground maneuver plan, and how logistics supported artillery units. For the future of the field artillery, those three areas must be maintained in order to prevail in the next major combat operation.

The Government Leader’s Field Guide to Organizational Agility

The Government Leader’s Field Guide to Organizational Agility

Sarah Miller; Shelley Kirkpatrick

Berrett-Koehler Publishers
2021
nidottu
This book is the first to fully adapt the principles of agility for government leaders who want to make their organizations more effective and nimbler while better serving their public mission. This practical resource will equip government leaders with evidence-based, hands-on guidance for transforming their organizations, enabling them to better serve the public and their customers. While many books on organizational agility are available for leaders in for-profit companies, this is the first one tailored to the unique limitations and requirements government leaders face. Public servants are increasingly asked to do more with less and must also find a way to accomplish their mission while balancing constant change. New laws are passed that impact their agencies, new technologies are introduced, and unexpected events occur. Government leaders at all levels are often in a position for only two to four years, rotating within and across agencies as they gain experience. They have a relatively short amount of time to learn a new role, make changes, and then begin seeking out their next opportunity. This guide will help leaders weather the storm of that constant change so they can help their agencies realize their missions to provide services and be better stewards of taxpayer or donor dollars.

McCarthy's Field Guide to Grammar

McCarthy's Field Guide to Grammar

Michael McCarthy

You ain't gonna like it: bad grammar's not so bad. - The TimesRemember all those grammar rules from school? No? Most of us don't. Mike McCarthy, renowned corpus linguist and co-author of the 900-page Cambridge Grammar of English answers the awkward questions that regularly bother us about English grammar. In this helpful A-Z field guide, McCarthy tells us what the conventional rules are as well as shows us what people are writing or saying now and gives simple reasons why you might choose one or the other so that you can speak and write with confidence.Through witty and entertaining examples pulled from 50 years of teaching, 40 years of field notes picked from books, newspapers, letters, radio and TV, etc., and shamelessly eavesdropping on people's conversations in public spaces, and a British and American English computer database, McCarthy has created a book to browse and enjoy, as well as a useful reference to keep on your bookshelf.Why a Field Guide to grammar?- A to Z format makes it easy to access and to find what you're looking for- Presents solutions to a host of common, everyday grammatical problems- References current events to bring relevance to the grammar (fronted adverbials anyone?)- Looks at historical usage to illustrate how the English language has evolved, and continues to evolve- Gives guidance on appropriate usage where more than one way of saying something exists- Distinguishes between spoken and written grammar where appropriate- includes advice on vocabulary, spelling, pronunciation, punctuation and style- Compares North American and British grammar, and includes Englishes from around the world- Charming drawings to illustrate the playfulness in the English language- Grammar guide backed by data and researchTrue to the Chambers name, this field guide is as much quirky as it is informative. It is the perfect gift for any language lover, student, teacher, struggling parent or carer supporting their child's schooling, the grammar purist or the grammar descriptivist.

Einstein's Inertial Field: How it accounts for the Pioneer anomaly, MOND, Hubble redshift, cosmic 'acceleration' and Schrodinger equation

Einstein's Inertial Field: How it accounts for the Pioneer anomaly, MOND, Hubble redshift, cosmic 'acceleration' and Schrodinger equation

Einstein's Inertial Field presents for the first time anywhere new exact solutions of Einstein's equation of general relativity. The new solutions confirm Einstein's long-held belief that the foundations of inertia are already embedded in his theory of gravitation. The solutions reveal a wealth of information about our universe and seem to account for a wide variety of anomalous phenomena that have been observed over the past several decades. These phenomena range in scale from our solar system to the farthest reaches of the cosmos. Remarkably, the new solutions suggest that Einstein's inertial field accounts for these diverse phenomena in an Einstein static universe, one that is neither expanding nor contracting. The book is written clearly with lots of exposition supporting the mathematical development and with equations developed step-by-step. The hope is that you will come to appreciate that Einstein's century-old masterpiece, his original theory of general relativity with no modifications, still has a world of new insights to offer into our understanding of our universe. ABSTRACT: New exact solutions of Einstein's equation for a static universe with discrete masses reveal the existence of an inertial field. The new solutions feature an inertial time dilation that results in an event horizon in a static, nearly flat universe at a radius of 13.8+/-1.2 billion light-years. Associated with the inertial field is a 4-vector inertial-drag force proportional to an invariant scalar acceleration. The inertial field accounts for anomalies at the scale of our solar system and at galactic and cosmological scales. Inertial time dilation accounts for the constant component of the Pioneer anomaly, but has no discernible effect on the precession rate of planetary orbits. In clusters and galaxies, the inertial field accounts indirectly for such effects as flat rotation curves, the Tully-Fisher relation, and the limit on mean surface brightness of spiral galaxies. The effect of the inertial drag force on hot plasmas offers an alternative interpretation of the Bullet cluster. The inertial field also accounts for the Hubble redshift and the appearance of cosmic acceleration in a static Einstein universe. With no adjustable parameters, inertial time dilation and inertial drag account completely for Type Ia supernova pulse data in a static universe. Acceleration of a mass produces dipole inertial radiation. Fluctuations of the cosmic inertial radiation background can account for all the quantum mechanical effects described by the Schr dinger wave equation. The power spectral density of inertial noise is calculated. The possibility that the inertial field is quantized and might be mediated by a massless spin-1 boson is discussed.
