Museums and Interactive Virtual Learning
Museums and Interactive Virtual Learning provides informal educators with practical resources that will help them to build dynamic digital engagement experiences within their own cultural organizations. Presenting vignettes from experienced museum educators and end users, as well as scientific data and practical resources, the book highlights the mutual benefits that Interactive Virtual Learning (IVL) programs offer to the museum and those visiting from a distance.Chapters mirror the step-by-step process of developing reputable IVL programs and emphasize how important it is for cultural organizations to encourage cross-departmental collaboration, if they wish to ensure that their programs align with the overall goals of the organization.Providing a thorough overview of the technologies, budget, marketing and staff requirements, the authors offer a realistic depiction of the work involved in building content for digital engagement.Emphasizing the importance of assessing existing programming, the book shows how institutions can adapt content to fit a virtual format and create inclusive digital engagement opportunities that reach local, national, and international audiences. Museums and Interactive Virtual Learning is an essential guide for professionals who are tasked with interpreting the content of a cultural organization and building lasting digital engagement opportunities.It will be particularly useful to those looking to reach diverse audiences.

Determining Death by Neurological Criteria : Current Practice and Ethics
The neurological criteria for the determination of death remain controversial within secular and Catholic circles, even though they are widely accepted within the medical community.In Determining Death by Neurological Criteria, Matthew Hanley offers both a practical and a philosophical defense.Hanley shows that the criteria are often misapplied in clinical settings, leading to cases where persons declared dead apparently spontaneously revive.These instances are often connected to a rushed decision to retrieve donated organs, thus undermining the trust of the public in organ donation.Hanley calls on health care institutions to take seriously their obligation to establish strict protocols for the determination of death, including who may conduct the examinations. From a broader perspective, Hanley considers how the criteria rely on a philosophical conception of the person as a living organism whose unity disintegrates at death.This view, he notes, corresponds to the Catholic conviction that the soul is the life-principle of the body, which departs at death, bringing about the destruction of the body-soul composite.The Vatican, recognizing that death is a medical judgment, has generally given its approval to the criteria.Hanley also reviews the many and various objections offered by detractors, including against the use of the apnea test, which is faulted as a practice that sometimes hastens death.The problem of the continued presence of certain vital functions within the deceased body of the brain dead is explored in detail, with reference to particular cases and to solutions proposed by leading physicians and bioethicists.Hanley likewise addresses the dilemma of having two separate standards for death, one neurological and the other cardiopulmonary.Given the possibility of resuscitation following loss of the cardio-circulatory system, he concludes that the neurological criteria must be the true standard.Stoppage of the heart leads swiftly to the final necrosis of the brain.

Caesar Versus Pompey : Determining Rome's Greatest General, Statesman & Nation-Builder
Who was Rome’s greatest general, statesman, and nation-builder:Caesar or Pompey?Few people have had as many words written about them down throughthe centuries as Julius Caesar—the brilliant general who made Queen Cleopatraof Egypt his mistress.He has captured the imagination of playwrights,historians, soldiers, and emperors. Little has been written about his ally, son-in-law, and eventualenemy Pompey the Great, who crashed onto the Roman scene as a victorioustwenty-three-year-old general and who, at the height of his career, was arguablymore famous, more popular, and more successful than Caesar. Caesar Versus Pompey tells the parallel life stories ofJulius Caesar and Pompey the Great, as their lives and loves became intertwined andinterdependent, as they grew from rivals to partners, then from joint rulers towarring foes.One strove to preserve the Roman Republic, the other destroyedit.

What Kind of Death : The Ethics of Determining One’s Own Death
Many books have been published about physician-assisted death.This book offers a comprehensive and in-depth examination of that subject, but it also extends the discussion to a broader range of end-of-life decisions including suicide, palliative care and sedation until death.In every jurisdiction that has laws permitting some kind of physician-assisted death, a central point of controversy is whether such assistance should only be available to dying patients, or to everyone who wants to end his life.The right to determine the manner and time of one’s own death, however, does not necessarily mean that physicians should be permitted to cooperate in ensuring a quick and peaceful death.In this book, Govert den Hartogh considers the fundamental and practical matters – including concrete issues of legal regulation – related to end-of life decision making.He proposes a two-tiered system. Everyone should have access to humane means of ending his life, if his decision to end it is voluntary, well-considered and durable.But doctors should only participate in a joint action of ending the patient’s life on his request if they also are convinced of acting in the patient’s best interests, in particular by ending intolerable and unrelievable suffering. And perhaps there is reason to restrict that second service to dying patients.The whole argument, however, depends on the extent to which, in both tiers of the system, we can design legal safeguards that will enable us to trust judgments about the requesting person’s request and about his suffering.The book considers much new evidence in regard to this issue. What Kind of Death will appeal to researchers and advanced students working in bioethics, applied ethics, philosophy of law and health law.

Determining Sample Size and Power in Research Studies : A Manual for Researchers
This book addresses sample size and power in the context of research, offering valuable insights for graduate and doctoral students as well as researchers in any discipline where data is generated to investigate research questions.It explains how to enhance the authenticity of research by estimating the sample size and reporting the power of the tests used.Further, it discusses the issue of sample size determination in survey studies as well as in hypothesis testing experiments so that readers can grasp the concept of statistical errors, minimum detectable difference, effect size, one-tail and two-tail tests and the power of the test.The book also highlights the importance of fixing these boundary conditions in enhancing the authenticity of research findings and improving the chances of research papers being accepted by respected journals.Further, it explores the significance of sample size by showing the power achieved in selected doctoral studies.Procedure has been discussed to fix power in the hypothesis testing experiment.One should usually have power at least 0.8 in the study because having power less than this will have the issue of practical significance of findings.If the power in any study is less than 0.5 then it would be better to test the hypothesis by tossing a coin instead of organizing the experiment.It also discusses determining sample size and power using the freeware G*Power software, based on twenty-one examples using different analyses, like t-test, parametric and non-parametric correlations, multivariate regression, logistic regression, independent and repeated measures ANOVA, mixed design, MANOVA and chi-square.
