Blood and Home in Early Modern Drama Domestic Identity on the Renaissance Stage

Blood and Home in Early Modern Drama Domestic Identity on the Renaissance Stage

In this volume the author argues that blood was crucially a means by which dramatists negotiated shifting contours of domesticity in 16th and 17th century England. Early modern English drama vividly addressed contemporary debates over an expanding idea of the domestic which encompassed the domus as well as sex parenthood household order the relationship between home and state and the connections between family honor and national identity. The author contends that the domestic ideology expressed by theatrical depictions of marriage and household order is one built on the simultaneous familiarity and violence inherent to blood. The theatrical relation between blood and home is far more intricate than the idealized language of the familial bloodline; the home was itself a bloody place with domestic bloodstains signifying a range of experiences including religious worship sex murder birth healing and holy justice. Focusing on four bleeding figures—the Bleeding Bride Bleeding Husband Bleeding Child and Bleeding Patient—the author argues that the household blood of the early modern stage not only expressed the violence and conflict occasioned by domestic ideology but also established the home as a site that alternately reified and challenged patriarchal authority. | Blood and Home in Early Modern Drama Domestic Identity on the Renaissance Stage

Nonparametric Statistical Tests A Computational Approach

Nonparametric Statistical Tests A Computational Approach

Nonparametric Statistical Tests: A Computational Approach describes classical nonparametric tests as well as novel and little-known methods such as the Baumgartner-Weiss-Schindler and the Cucconi tests. The book presents SAS and R programs allowing readers to carry out the different statistical methods such as permutation and bootstrap tests. The author considers example data sets in each chapter to illustrate methods. Numerous real-life data from various areas including the bible and their analyses provide for greatly diversified reading. The book covers: Nonparametric two-sample tests for the location-shift model specifically the Fisher-Pitman permutation test the Wilcoxon rank sum test and the Baumgartner-Weiss-Schindler test Permutation tests location-scale tests tests for the nonparametric Behrens-Fisher problem and tests for a difference in variability Tests for the general alternative including the (Kolmogorov-)Smirnov test ordered categorical and discrete numerical data Well-known one-sample tests such as the sign test and Wilcoxon’s signed rank test a modification suggested by Pratt (1959) a permutation test with original observations and a one-sample bootstrap test are presented. Tests for more than two groups the following tests are described in detail: the Kruskal-Wallis test the permutation F test the Jonckheere-Terpstra trend test tests for umbrella alternatives and the Friedman and Page tests for multiple dependent groups The concepts of independence and correlation and stratified tests such as the van Elteren test and combination tests The applicability of computer-intensive methods such as bootstrap and permutation tests for non-standard situations and complex designs Although the major development of nonparametric methods came to a certain end in the 1970s their importance undoubtedly persists. What is still needed is a computer assisted evaluation of their main properties. This book closes that gap. | Nonparametric Statistical Tests A Computational Approach

The Blood-Cerebrospinal Fluid Barrier

The Blood-Cerebrospinal Fluid Barrier

Despite the existence of two barrier systems in the brain research over the last century has mostly focused on the blood-brain barrier rather than on the blood-CSF barrier. Today there is a greater understanding of the function of the blood-CSF barrier and of the choroid plexus a tissue that is the primary site of this barrier. With the growing number of studies that focus on the role of the blood-CSF barrier in CNS homeostasis and neurological disorders a modern overview of the blood-CSF barrier is long overdue. The Blood-Cerebrospinal Fluid Barrier is exclusively devoted to the blood-CSF barrier. Internationally renowned experts discuss the most recent progress in the field of choroid plexus physiology and update our knowledge of the function of the blood-CSF barrier. The book begins with an overview of the development and morphology of the choroid plexus and then covers various aspects of its function such as the regulation of choroidal blood flow ion transport and the production and transport of polypeptides. Following an extensive section on the role of the choroid plexus in CNS disorders the final section discusses in vitro in vivo and in situ models of the blood-CSF barrier. This unique book analyzes a wealth of new research on the proven and potential roles of the choroid plexus/blood-CSF barrier in the brain. It is a valuable resource that will foster future studies in neuroscience pharmacology and toxicology.

Red Blood Cell Aggregation

Red Blood Cell Aggregation

Red blood cells in humans—and most other mammals—have a tendency to form aggregates with a characteristic face-to-face morphology similar to a stack of coins. Known as rouleaux these aggregates are a normally occurring phenomenon and have a major impact on blood rheology. What is the underlying mechanism that produces this pattern? Does this really happen in blood circulation? And do these rouleaux formations have a useful function? The first book to offer a comprehensive review of the subject Red Blood Cell Aggregation tackles these and other questions related to red blood cell (RBC) aggregates. The book covers basic clinical and physiological aspects of this important biophysical phenomenon and integrates these areas with concepts in bioengineering. It brings together state-of-the-art research on the determinants mechanisms and measurement and effects of RBC aggregation as well as on variations and comparative aspects. After an introductory overview the book outlines factors and conditions that affect RBC aggregation. It presents the two hypotheses—the bridging model and the depletion model—that provide potential mechanisms for the adhesive forces that lead to the regular packing of the cells in rouleaux formations. The book also reviews the methods used to quantify RBC aggregation in vitro focusing on their importance in clinical practice. Chapters discuss the effect of RBC aggregation on the in vitro rheology of blood as well as on tube flow. The book also looks at what happens in the circulation when red blood cells aggregate and examines variations due to physiological and pathophysiological challenges. The concluding chapter explores the formation of red blood cell aggregates in other mammals. Written by leading researchers in the field this is an invaluable resource for basic science medical and clinical researchers; graduate stu

Blood Libel and Its Derivatives The Scourge of Anti-Semitism

Blood Libel and Its Derivatives The Scourge of Anti-Semitism

At the doorstep of the twenty-first century one would expect that medieval concepts such as blood libel the accusation that Jews kill children to use their blood in religious ritual would have been discarded by any civilized human being. Certainly in the Christian world where the story originated and endured for centuries modern attitudes have nearly erased these barbaric accusations. But in Arab and Islamic worlds where enmity towards Israel and Zionism has conditioned beliefs attitudes positions and fantasies blood libel and similar charges are still part of life. Most people are unaware of the history of blood libel and do not perceive links between it and many of the false accusations currently hurled against the state of Israel. Raphael Israeli argues that individuals and organizations guilty of human rights crimes project crimes onto Israel to avoid awareness of their own guilt. Certainly when countries ruled by dictators set the agenda of the UN Council for human rights Israel is consistently censured and condemned. Accusations of apartheid and charges of discrimination against Muslims are frequently made. Israel is accused of plots against Muslims in order to harm their productive sectors of using weapons of mass destruction to commit genocide against Arabs of injecting poisonous substances into Palestinian children of poisoning Arab lands under the guise of agricultural aid and of laying siege to peaceful citizens. All of these charges are derivatives of blood libel and have been adopted by Middle East Jihadists in their struggle against Israel. This volume aims to explain the origins of the charge of blood libel and define the ways its derivatives have achieved acceptance in certain parts of the world today. | Blood Libel and Its Derivatives The Scourge of Anti-Semitism

Social Policy Reform in China Views from Home and Abroad

Social Policy Reform in China Views from Home and Abroad

This title was first published in 2003. The People’s Republic of China (PRC) is a timely example of social policy reform in a socialist market economy. This important and topical edited collection brings together leading Chinese and Western experts to introduce and integrate policy issues of the PRC into the mainstream of cross-national social policy debate. Drawing upon comparativist expertise in relevant aspects of social policy the book explores the ways in which the PRC has or has not taken lessons from abroad in key social policy respects and illustrates policy-relevant relations between Chinese and Western perspectives. The contributors identify those aspects of China’s recent social policy reforms that seem the most and least likely to appeal to Western societies. The collection therefore represents a substantial advance in two-way East-West lesson learning in social and public policy. | Social Policy Reform in China Views from Home and Abroad

Prostitution Pornography and Trafficking in Women Israel's Blood Money

Prostitution Pornography and Trafficking in Women Israel's Blood Money

This book critically analyzes the sex industry in Israel using feminist concepts and scholarship to elaborate on the power of prostitution to shape a world in which women are objects for fulfilling men's desires. A comprehensive collection of research-based articles that examine prostitution trafficking in women and pornography from divergent disciplinary angles it reveals the interconnectedness of these three aspects of the sex trade which objectifies commercializes and exploits human – and in particular women’s – sexuality. Showing these practices to be embedded in a capitalist and patriarchal oppressive context that is accommodated by state institutions this volume rejects the argument that it is possible to choose prostitution and that feminist pornography is possible. With case studies including the conspicuous context of migration that attracts sex traffickers the liberal discourse introduced by cinema the media and the arts that serve to legitimate prostitution and pornography the chauvinist-macho culture that perceives and treats women as sex objects and the issues of male prostitution and men as clients Prostitution Pornography and Trafficking in Women: Israel’s Blood Money constitutes a study of Israel as a unique context in which the sex trade can prosper in spite of geographical religious and institutional constraints. As such it will be of interest to scholars of sociology anthropology history cultural studies and gender and women’s studies. | Prostitution Pornography and Trafficking in Women Israel's Blood Money

Statistical Power Analysis A Simple and General Model for Traditional and Modern Hypothesis Tests Fifth Edition

Statistical Power Analysis A Simple and General Model for Traditional and Modern Hypothesis Tests Fifth Edition

Statistical Power Analysis explains the key concepts in statistical power analysis and illustrates their application in both tests of traditional null hypotheses (that treatments or interventions have no effect in the population) and in tests of the minimum-effect hypotheses (that the population effects of treatments or interventions are so small that they can be safely treated as unimportant). It provides readers with the tools to understand and perform power analyses for virtually all the statistical methods used in the social and behavioral sciences. Brett Myors and Kevin Murphy apply the latest approaches of power analysis to both null hypothesis and minimum-effect testing using the same basic unified model. This book starts with a review of the key concepts that underly statistical power. It goes on to show how to perform and interpret power analyses and the ways to use them to diagnose and plan research. We discuss the uses of power analysis in correlation and regression in the analysis of experimental data and in multilevel studies. This edition includes new material and new power software. The programs used for power analysis in this book have been re-written in R a language that is widely used and freely available. The authors include R codes for all programs and we have also provided a web-based app that allows users who are not comfortable with R to perform a wide range of analyses using any computer or device that provides access to the web. Statistical Power Analysis helps readers design studies diagnose existing studies and understand why hypothesis tests come out the way they do. The fifth edition includes updates to all chapters to accommodate the most current scholarship as well as recalculations of all examples. This book is intended for graduate students and faculty in the behavioral and social sciences; researchers in other fields will find the concepts and methods laid out here valuable and applicable to studies in many domains. | Statistical Power Analysis A Simple and General Model for Traditional and Modern Hypothesis Tests Fifth Edition

Historicising Heritage and Emotions The Affective Histories of Blood Stone and Land

Historicising Heritage and Emotions The Affective Histories of Blood Stone and Land

Historicising Heritage and Emotions examines how heritage is connected to and between people and places through emotion both in the past and today. Discussion is focused on the overlapping categories of blood (families and bloodlines) stone (monuments and memorials) and land (landscape and places imbued with memories) with the contributing authors exploring the ways in which emotions invest heritage with affective power and the transformative effects of this power in individual community and cultural contexts. The 13 chapters that make up the volume take examples from the premodern and modern eras and from two connected geographical regions the United Kingdom and Australia and the Pacific. Each chapter seeks to identify historicise and contextualise the processes of heritage and the emotional regimes at play locating the processes within longer historical and transnational genealogies and critically appraising them as part of broader cultural currents. Theoretically grounded in new approaches to the history of emotions and critical heritage studies the analysis challenges the traditional scholarly focus on heritage in its modern forms offering multifaceted premodern and modern case studies that demonstrate heritage and emotion to have complex and vibrant histories. Offering transhistorical and multidisciplinary discussion around the ways in which we can talk about discuss categorise and theorise heritage and emotion in different historical contexts Historicising Heritage and Emotions is a valuable resource for students and scholars interested in heritage emotions and history. | Historicising Heritage and Emotions The Affective Histories of Blood Stone and Land
