ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Ruse, Michael / Wilson, Edward Osborne, PUBLISHER: ABC-CLIO, A thought-provoking series that chronicles the discussions, disputes, and debates that have divided scientists and advanced science through the ages. The origins of humanity? The causes of homosexuality? Experimentation on humans and animals? In both theory and practice, science is riven by controversy. Always has been, always will be.

Edited by top scientists, philosophers, and historians, the titles explore fields as diverse as cosmology, genetics, evolution, psychiatry, and the fascinating and speculative study of extraterrestrial biology.

What routes should we take? Controversies in Science offers a road map.

Mark Twain in the Margins: The Quarry Farm Marginalia and a

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Fulton, Joe B., PUBLISHER: University of Alabama Press, The common characterization of Mark Twain as an uneducated and improvisational writer took hold largely because of the novelist's own frequent claims about his ong>writingong> practices. But using recently discovered evidence -- Twain's marginal notes in books he consulted as he worked on A Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur's Court -- Joe Fulton argues for a reconsideration of scholarly views about Twain's ong>writingong> process, showing that this great American author crafted his novels with careful research and calculated design. Fulton analyzes Twain's voluminous marginalia in the copies of Macaulay's History of England, Carlyle's History of the French Revolution, and Lecky's History of the Rise of Rationalism and England in the Eighteenth Century available to Twain in the library of Quarry Farm, the ong>Newong> York farm where the novelist and his family routinely spent their summers. Comparing these marginal notes to entries in Twain's ong>writingong> journal, the manuscript of Connecticut Yankee, and the book as published in , Fulton establishes that Twain's research decisively influenced the novel. Fulton reveals Twain to be both the writer from experience he claimed to be and the careful craftsman that he attempted to downplay. By redefining Twain's aesthetic, Fulton reinvigorates current debates about what constitutes literary realism. Fulton's transcriptions of the marginalia appear in an appendix; together with his analysis, they provide a valuable ong>newong> resource for Twain scholars.

Writing about Patients: Responsibilities, Risks, and

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Kantrowitz, Judy Leopold, PUBLISHER: Other Press (NY), An important ong>newong> study of the clinical conundrum surrounding the publication of patient material. The publication, presentation, and discussion of case studies are essential to the dialogue of psychoanalysis. However, presenting patient material to the public by either disguising the patient's identity or asking for the patient's consent presents a clinical dilemma. In a series of interviews, Judy Leopold Kantrowitz asks 141 analysts not only to describe their thoughts about disguising a patient versus asking a patient's consent to appear in a paper, but also their perceptions of the clinical ramifications of a patient reading the material, whether by accident or design. In first-hand accounts, both analysts-as-patients and patients who are not themselves analysts relate the experience of reading about themselves, and reflect on the impact that reading had on their view of their analysts, themselves, and the analytic work. Ethical concerns about confidentiality and decision making are examined both in theory and in the context of their clinical effect. Throughout the book, Kantrowitz examines the conscious and unconscious motives for analysts in ong>writingong> about a patient, ultimately demonstrating that the conflict between the need to preserve patient privacy and the need for a literature including clinical material is not easily resolved.

This text will be especially useful to composition instructors who wish to provide students with both a general overview of academic discourse and an introduction to the purposes, audiences, and genres of ong>writingong> across disciplines.

The book provides instructors and students sequences of engaging and exploratory "ong>Writingong> to Learn" and "Learn by Doing" activities and formal, extended ong>writingong> projects that ask students to interview professors, analyze ong>writingong> assignments, and reflect on their own reading, ong>writingong>, and researching processes and histories. These ong>writingong> projects connect to students' interests, experiences, and goals and provide them with a sense of purpose and audience for ong>writingong>. The organization of Exploring College ong>Writingong> moves students from reflection to investigation. Part I of the book provides a broad introduction to academic reading, ong>writingong>, and researching and introduces students to the rhetorical situations, genres, and common college thinking and ong>writingong> strategies. Part I presents students with prompts that ask them to explore the similarities and differences between high school and college literacy and reflect on their own literacy histories. Part II asks students to think critically about their reading, ong>writingong>, and researching processes and to explore strategies for college reading, ong>writingong>, and researching processes. Part II includes prompts that ask students to explore college reading, ong>writingong>, and researching processes and practice academic research and making academic arguments. Part III introduces students to ong>writingong> across the curriculum and the idea of disciplines and discourse communities. Part IV asks students to investigate the reading, ong>writingong>, and researching assigned in the General Education and major courses at their campus and to consider discipline-specific ways of ong>writingong> and thinking. Unlike other textbooks Exploring College ong>Writingong> uses authentic student and professional texts from across disciplines in a variety of genres such as lab reports, scholarly book reviews, ethnographies and case studies to guide and inspire the ong>writingong> process.
