Within most disciplines there are those who are recognized by their colleagues as being exceptionally competent practitioners. These people are sometimes called "expert," "unusually competent," or "extraordinary." Their commonality is that they do their work in a remarkable way and their actions and interpersonal interactions are regarded by others as highly successful. This book is based on a recent study of the beliefs, actions, and interactions of a group of unusually competent oncology nurses. These are nurses their peers would choose to have care for them if they were diagnosed with cancer. The weaving together of the nurses’ narratives and comments, field notes, and poetry, give a very personal and unique perspective on nursing that leaves the reader with a greater understanding of the experience and rewards of caring for others.

Right now I’m feeling much pain, so much so that if I don’t write this story I promised my kids would soon be done and always and never materialized, which has to be done, if only for my own sanity and to ultimately free us all up, I will feel lost. Now. What I didn’t expect to write is this other story. But that must be told to give a better understanding of why this whole mess happened anyway. My dupey heads might come up with better reasons, and then maybe someday they’ll write their books with fond memories and less pain. A bestseller will be yours, I’m sure. If not in the bookstores, it will be in your hearts. I started writing my book over thirty years ago and some. (Smile.)

Historical film has been an important genre since the earliest silent films. The French Revolution, the American Civil War, the conquest of the New World, World War II--all have been repeatedly represented in film. But how do we distinguish between fictionalized spectacle and authentic historical representation? Writing History in Film sets out the narratological, semiological, rhetorical, and philosophical bases for understanding how film can function as a form of historical interpretation and representation. With case studies and an interdisciplinary approach, William Guynn examines the key issues facing film students and scholars, historians, and anyone interested in how we see our historical past.

As a growing area of research, the philosophy of time is increasingly relevant to different areas of philosophy and even other disciplines. This book describes and evaluates the most important debates in philosophy of time, under several subject areas: metaphysics, epistemology, physics, philosophy of language, philosophy of mind, cognitive science, rationality, and art. Questions this book investigates include the following. Can we know what time really is? Is time possible, especially given modern physics? Must there be time because we cannot think without it? What do we experience of time? How might philosophy of time be relevant to understanding the mind–body relationship or evidence in cognitive science? Can the philosophy of time help us understand biases toward the future and the fear of death? How is time relevant to art—and is art relevant to philosophical debates about time? Finally, what exactly could time travel be? And could time travel satisfy emotions such as nostalgia and regret? Through asking such questions, and showing how they might be best answered, the book demonstrates the importance philosophy of time has in contemporary thought. Each of the book’s ten chapters begins with a helpful introduction and ends with study questions and an annotated list of further reading. This and a comprehensive bibliography at the end of the book prepare the reader to go further in their study of the philosophy of time.
