This updated second edition of Cochlear Implant Patient Assessment is an instrumental reference for clinicians working with cochlear implant recipients and graduate students in the fields of speech-language pathology and audiology. The content of the text is logically organized, and begins with necessary background information for cochlear implant candidacy and the selection process. Later chapters provide information on assessment of implant candidacy, postoperative assessment of performance over the long term, and possibilities for future research and understanding. Though Cochlear Implant Patient Assessment contains useful information for even the most seasoned clinicians, it will serve an especially important role in the education and training of students and clinicians being introduced to cochlear implant clinical practice. Having an experienced audiologist and speech-language pathologist authoring this work unites the inter-disciplinary nature of this practice. New to the second edition: 1. Up-to-date research guiding candidacy and outcomes assessment—particularly relevant for cases of hearing preservation, determining bilateral CI candidacy, bimodal hearing, and assessment of the nontraditional cochlear implant candidate. 2. Assessment of candidacy and postoperative outcomes for individuals with unilateral deafness Assessment of non-English speaking patients. 3. Role of imaging in device selection and postoperative assessment. 4. Access to a PluralPlus companion website with interactive files and printable forms.
What is hatred? What is baseless hatred? And how does this basic human emotion affect our relationships, our communities, and our world? In this fascinating study, pharmacological researcher Rene H. Levy looks through a scientific, sociological, and religious lens at the causes and effects of baseless hatred, and offers a prescription for preventing and repairing its damaging consequences. Levy examines the psychological and neurobiological bases of baseless hatred, and shows how it destroys interpersonal relationships. Baseless hatred is understood within Jewish tradition to have been the cause of the longest exile of the Jewish people from the Land of Israel; Levy discusses the impact of baseless hatred - both from without and from within - on the State of Israel, including an analysis of Islamist anti-Zionist hostility and the more recent Western antisemitic opposition as well as the new existential questions posed by the post-Zionist movement. Finally, Levy shows how the cement that has kept the Jewish people united as a nation, known as arevut, "mutual responsibility," proves to be the remedy for the devastating problem of baseless hatred.

A cochlear implant is a surgically implanted electronic device that provides a sense of sound to a person who has a severe or profound hearing loss. A cochlear implant does not cure deafness or hearing impairment, but is a prosthetic substitute which directly stimulates the cochlea. There are over 250,000 users worldwide with 12,000 in the UK. This book is a multidisciplinary guide to cochlear implantation in children and adults with sensorineural hearing loss (where the root cause lies in the inner ear or sensory organ, ie the cochlear and associated organs). Beginning with discussion on the aetiology of hearing loss and assessment of cochlear implant candidacy, the next chapter discusses preoperative cochlear implant imaging. Each of the following sections provides in depth coverage of different types of cochlear implantation and their potential outcomes. The final sections examine miscellaneous topics such as music perception in cochlear implantation, drug eluting electrodes, cost effectiveness, and reliability reporting. Authored by internationally recognised, US-based specialists, the text is further enhanced by clinical and surgical photographs and illustrations.

The second edition of this widely acclaimed book considers the extent to which the Baltic states have succeeded politically and economically in their aspirations to emulate Western institutions since independence. The book has been completely revised since the first edition to account for the rapid changes in the countries themselves, and in the theories that attempt to generalize the patterns of development in post-communist countries.The Baltic States after Independence, Second Edition provides a thorough analysis of the political and economic systems of Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania. It sheds new light on the processes and obstacles which have characterized the Baltic transition from the Soviet system. The authors examine the history of these countries and the movements towards democracy, institutional change and economic development during the post-communist era. In addition, they analyse other issues including national identity, security and Western integration, and have included a new chapter on international relations, reflecting the changing issues faced by the Baltic states.This book offers a unique insight into political, economic and social life in the three independent Baltic states which will be welcomed by academics and students working in the areas of political science, economic development and transition studies.

Financial Interdependence, Digitalization and Technological Rivalries

Springer International Publishing AG
2023
sidottu
This Palgrave Pivot investigates how the Chinese and United States financial systems are becoming increasingly interdependent, in spite of a simultaneous technological rivalry and ‘decoupling’ between the two nations. The book offers a comparative analysis of Sino-US financial systems before and after the global financial crisis of 2008-2009, demonstrating the deepening integration of China into global financial markets and its move from an indirect bank-based system towards a direct market-oriented system. It discusses the economic and technological competition that has arisen between the US and China, the two largest financial centers based on financial technology, and demonstrates the differences in national interest driving processes of digitalization and FinTech applications. At the same time, the book points to ways in which a market-oriented global financial system and the rapid international growth of financial technology make future cooperation inevitable and necessary. This book places Sino-US financial relations in a broader financial-economic perspective and will be of interest to academics, consultants and students working in banking and finance, international financial markets, comparative economics, monetary theory and Chinese business studies.
Sino-EU Economic Relations
René W.H. van der Linden; Piotr Lasak
Springer International Publishing AG
2024
sidottu
This Palgrave Pivot book analyses the current state of economic and financial relations between China and the European Union. It illustrates the ‘de-risking’ strategy that informs much of financial policy between China and the EU and argues that this differs from the policy of ‘decoupling’ that characterizes the US approach towards China. Exploring how the EU positions itself in the context of a trade and tech race between the US and China, the book sketches out a range of geopolitical challenges for Europe as it navigates current and future scenarios in global economic cooperation and competition. It discusses the concept of ‘strategic autonomy’ for the EU and explores barriers to achieving this as well as options for re-shaping relations with China. The book provides an excellent overview for researchers and policy-makers of Sino-EU economic relations today and sets them firmly in the contexts of the post-pandemic world with new global value chains, rapid technological development, and evolving environmental challenges.
The Financial Implications of China’s Belt and Road Initiative

Springer Nature Switzerland AG
2019
sidottu
This book systematically discusses the contribution of the Belt and Road Initiative (BRI) to China’s transition from an emerging to an advanced economic and financial system after more than five years. From a historical perspective, it explains to what extent the BRI plan is effective enough to help China bounce back from its economic slowdown and the financial implications in a policy trilemma context. Further, it investigates both the rationale of the BRI and its pitfalls, focusing on the various options for financing the project based on the Mundell & Fleming model. The book also analyses the impact of the BRI as well as possible policy options to deal with China’s policy trilemma in a structurally more balanced “new normal” economic growth model. Lastly, it reviews the financial stability issues concerning liberalization policies in China.
Public Environmental Law in the European Union and the United States

Kluwer Law International
2002

This volume presents an overview of public environmental law in the EU and the US. It focuses on constitutional and administrative environmental law but also includes other areas of law such as criminal and private law (in as far as these are relevant to the understanding of public environmental law). The book offers a comparative introduction, by editors and native authors, to the most important aspects of environmental law (prevention of pollution). It thus aspires to contribute to both "transboundary" understanding of different regimes for Environmental Law and to a greater co-operation between different international and European partners in their strive towards more adequate (legal) modes of protection and improvement of the environment.

Elfriede H La Femme aux épingles: De la névrose obsessionnelle à la mélancolie

Having taken our support on Jacques Lacan's theory about melancoly, this takes us to the heart of the whirlwind of the case dElfriede Hirschfeld. Freud, not receding about his oedip's theory, he is required to undergo in his theory of topological deformation to account for this case. An example among other, for example by extending it by a stadium sadique-anal. If the notion of negative therapeutic reaction reflects the failure of this concept, the texts of Freud, his correspondence with his colleagues, the medical record of the clinic of Bellevue in Switzerland, led by Ludwig Binswanger, also indicate us, that he was teached in his clinic by the subject. What will testify Elfriede Hirschfeld during his second stay in psychiatric institution.This patient of Freud whose name is known and disclosed since 1994, as well as some passages from the inventor of psychoanalysis which evoked her, is here the objet of a broader search which motivates the present publication. This research allowed the identification of all the passages where Freud mention implicitly this patient, without ever naming her. The present work integrates also consultation of the medical record established during the four Mrs. Hirschfeld stays at the Bellevue clinic directed by Dr. Ludwig Binswanger. Notes recorded daily by nurses have enabled us to ensure the clinical perspective that gives coherence to these fragments scattered in the work of Freud, in his correspondence, and meetings of the Vienna Psychoanalytical Society. This clinical perspective is melancholy. Begun in 1999, our research ended in 2013 with the identification of the year of death of Ms. H and access to the knowledge of the surname of its parents, which is not without importance, as we shall see. L'appui pris sur l'apport de Jacques Lacan en ce qui concerne la m lancolie nous entra ne au coeur du tourbillon du cas d"Elfriede Hirschfeld. Freud, ne d mordant pas de sa th orie sur l'oedipe, est dans la n cessit de revisiter la cat gorie de n vrose obsessionnelle qu'il avait cr . Ne c dant pas sur la clinique du sujet, il est amen faire subir sa th orie des d formations topologiques pour rendre compte de ce cas. Comme par exemple de la prolonger par un stade dit sadique-anal. Si la notion de r action th rapeutique n gative rend compte du ratage de ce concept, les textes de Freud, sa correspondance avec ses coll gues, le dossier m dical de la clinique de Bellevue en Suisse, dirig e par Ludwig Binswanger, nous indiquent aussi qu'il se laissait enseigner dans sa clinique par le sujet. Ce dont t moignera Elfriede Hirschfeld lors de son second s jour dans l' tablissement psychiatrique.Cette patiente de Freud dont le nom est connu et divulgu depuis 1994, ainsi que quelques passages de l'inventeur de la psychanalyse qui l' voquaient, a fait l'objet de notre part d'une recherche plus ample qui motive le pr sent propos Cette recherche a permis l'identification de tous les passages o Freud voque implicitement cette patiente, sans jamais la nommer - Ainsi notre propos int gre-t-il la consultation du dossier m dical tabli lors des quatre s jours de Mme H la clinique de Bellevue dirig e alors par le Dr Ludwig Binswanger. Les notes qui y sont consign es journellement par les infirmi res nous ont permis d'assurer la perspective clinique qui donne sa coh rence ces fragments diss min s dans l'oeuvre de Freud, dans sa correspondance, et dans les s ances de la Soci t Psychanalytique de Vienne. Cette perspective clinique est celle de la m lancolie. Commenc e en 1999, notre recherche s'est termin e en 2013 avec l'identification de l'ann e de d c s de Mme H et l'acc s la connaissance du nom de famille de ses g niteurs, ce qui n'est pas sans importance, comme nous le verrons.

In the middle of a brutal divorce from his wife of nearly forty years, Shawn finds comfort in this new affair. He has met Ren under special circumstances, and he throws himself into helping her. She is a German American journalist of Chinese descent who is on a quest to find her true identity. They travel through Hong Kong and Taiwan in search of her biological parents, whom Ren never got the chance to meet. Along the way, they fall hopelessly in love. Then they discover that Ren 's parents died tragically in a plane crash when she was a baby. When they rifle through files looking for more information, the lovers soon learn the most shocking detail of all: an incident from Shawn's past has jeopardized their chances for a happy future together. Although their lives will never be the same, the lesson learned about genuine love will follow them forever.
