Beschreibung

In "Afloat in the Forest; Or, A Voyage among the Tree-Tops," Mayne Reid invites readers into an exhilarating adventure that melds elements of Gothic romanticism with the thrilling escapism characteristic of Victorian-era literature. The narrative chronicles the journey of young explorers navigating a lush, primordial forest where tree-dwelling creatures and perilous encounters abound. Reid's vivid imagery and a dynamic prose style complement his engaging storytelling, placing the reader amidst the verdant canopy, thereby transcending mere descriptions of nature to evoke a profound sense of the sublime. Mayne Reid, an Anglo-Irish author known for his fascination with natural landscapes and the great outdoors, draws on his own experiences as a traveler and naturalist. His life, marked by travel and a keen observation of nature, imbues his writing with authenticity and zeal, reflecting the broader fascination of the 19th-century Victorian society with exploration, discovery, and the natural world. Reid'Äôs unique ability to weave adventure with moral lessons speaks to the cultural ethos of his time and signifies a yearning for escapism amidst the industrial age. For readers who cherish adventure tales rich in nature and imbued with thrilling encounters, Reid's "Afloat in the Forest" is an essential addition to the canon of classic literature. The book's intricate descriptions and captivating narrative structure invite both young adult readers and seasoned literary adventurers to lose themselves in a world where nature reigns supreme and the spirit of exploration is ever-present.

    As a healthcare provider, do you feel frustrated and fatigued with an impersonal, administrative-heavy system where you don’t feel your opinion matters? Do you feel powerless to effect change? You’re not alone! Provider burnout is rampant due to bureaucratic overload, long work hours, and the lack of community, respect, and autonomy at work. But these issues can be addressed without significant expense or a major system overhaul. Dr. John McB. Hodgson’s approach to healthcare change re-empowers healthcare providers to do what they love to do—care for patients, solve problems, and influence the delivery system. In Healing the System, Dr. Hodgson draws on his experience as a seasoned cardiologist to suggest easy-to-implement changes that healthcare providers and administrators can make to combat the increasingly dysfunctional environment typical of current practice. These simple changes can bring a sense of fulfillment, joy, and satisfaction back to the practice of medicine, and the entire system will be energized. Hodgson’s solutions includegetting back to missional purpose, rather than focusing solely on the numbers;empowering teams and community;encouraging equity in the place where providers practice;involving providers in administrative functions and decision making; andhonoring one another, no matter the position or the department.The message in this book encourages physicians and other healthcare delivery professionals to create an environment and culture in which everyone can thrive.

    “Fascinating case studies” of scientific controversies and misconduct—with valuable insights on how to identify, avoid, and prevent fraud (Leonardo). 
     
    In David Goodstein’s varied experience—as a physicist and educator, and as vice provost at Caltech, a job in which he was responsible for investigating all allegations of scientific misconduct—a deceptively simple question has come up time and again: What constitutes fraud in science? Here, Goodstein takes us on a tour of real controversies from the front lines of science and helps readers determine for themselves whether or not fraud occurred. Cases include, among others, those of Robert A. Millikan, whose historic measurement of the electron’s charge has been maligned by accusations of fraud; Martin Fleischmann and Stanley Pons and their “discovery” of cold fusion; Victor Ninov and the supposed discovery of element 118; Jan Hendrik Schön from Bell Labs and his work in semiconductors; and J. Georg Bednorz and Karl Müller’s discovery of high-temperature superconductivity, a seemingly impossible accomplishment that turned out to be real. 
     
    Fraud in science is not as easy to identify as one might think. When accusations of scientific misconduct occur, truth can be elusive, and the cause of a scientist’s ethical misstep isn’t always clear. On Fact and Fraud looks at actual cases in which fraud was committed or alleged, explaining what constitutes scientific misconduct and what doesn’t—and providing readers with the ethical foundations needed to discern and avoid fraud wherever it may arise.
