    Abstract: This volume is the result of a conference sponsored by the Medical Alumni Association of the University of California, Davis and held in Sacramento, California, in January, 2000, The purpose of this conference was to examine the impact ofvarious health care structures on the ability of health care professionals to practice in an ethically acceptable manner. One of the ground assumptions made is that ethical practice in medicine and its related fields is difficult in a setting that pays only lip service to ethical principles. The limits of ethical possibility are created by the system within which health care professionals must practice. When, for example, ethical practice necessitates—as it generally does—that health care professionals spend sufficient time to come to know and understand their patients’ goals and values but the system mandates that only a short time be spent with each patient, ethical practice is made virtually impossible. One of our chief frustrations in teaching health care ethics at medical colleges is that we essentially teach students to do something they are most likely to find impossible to do: that is, get to know and appreciate their patients’ goals and values. There are other ways in which systems alter ethical possibilities. In a system in which patients have a different physician outside the hospital than they will inside, ethical problems have a different shape than if the treating physician is the same person.

    Abstract: This book consists of 14 chapters. Chapters 2 and 3 are devoted to the dynamics of active structures; the open loop transfer functions are derived from the constitutive equations; the discussion includes active trusses with piezoelectric struts, and beams and shells with embedded laminar piezoelectric actuators and sensors. Chapters 4 and 5 discuss the virtues of collocated actuator/sensor configurations and how they can be exploited to develop active damping with guaranteed stability. Chapter 6 addresses vibration isolation for one and 6 d.o.f. Chapter 7 discusses optimal control for SISO systems with symmetric root locus. Chapter 8 discusses the design tradeoffs for SISO systems in the frequency domain, including the Bode amplitude/phase relationship. Chapter 9 provides a more general discussion of optimal control using of optimal control using the Riccati equation; spillover is examined. Chapters 10 and 11 review briefly the concepts of controllability, observability and stability. Chapter 12 discusses the semi-active control, including some materials on magneto-rheological fluids. Chapter 13 describes various practical applications to active damping, precision positioning and vibroacoustics, and chapter 14 discusses the active damping of cable- structures

    Abstract: This book deals with problems of multiple repeated analyses (reanalysis) of structures. It introduces various concepts and methods, and presents them in a unified approach. This should prove useful to students, researchers, consultants, and practising engineers involved in analysis and design of structures. Reanalysis is common to numerous analysis and design tasks, and it is needed in such areas as structural optimisation, damage analysis, non-linear analysis, and probabilistic analysis. The material presented in the text is related to a wide range of applications in such fields as aerospace engineering, civil engineering, mechanical engineering, and naval architecture. The book discusses various analysis models, including linear and non-linear analysis, static and dynamic analysis, and design sensitivity analysis. It presents direct as well as approximate methods, and demonstrates how various concepts and methods are integrated to achieve effective solution procedures. Previous books on structural analysis do not cover most of the material presented in the book. To clarify the presentation, many illustrative examples and numerical results are demonstrated

    Abstract: Case Presentations and Standard Analyses -- Dewey’s Methodology, Purpose and Central Assumptions -- Re-assessing Some Traditional Presuppositions about Persons -- Re-assessing the Cases Presented in Chapter Two from a Bio/psycho/social Perspective.
    Abstract: This text examines the dominant ways of looking at patient/clinician relationships in healthcare. By challenging these dominant views the author can explore presuppositions that are defective. She further explains how they come to be so readily and uncritically held and reinforced; and, why their implications can have such a profound affect on how we think and act. Using the methodology of philosopher, John Dewey, the author proposes an alternative bio/psycho/social approach to understanding the patient/clinician relationship and for resolving increasingly common bioethical issues that arise in healthcare settings.

    Abstract: Dying, Death and Attitudes -- Questions, Methods and the Problem of Autonomy -- The Concept of Orchestrating Death -- Sudden Death and the End of Life -- Suicide, Assisted Suicide and Euthanasia -- Hospice and the End of Life -- Challenges for Tomorrow: Where Do We Go from Here?.
    Abstract: Today we have more control over how we live and how we die than we ever had before. This fact has produced many ethical problems. While much about life is biologically determined, much else is determined by the social circumstances surrounding it. Unfortunately, little energy is spent dealing with the social and psychological factors within which the medical/biological factors are imbedded. In this volume the authors examine some of the medical social and psychological conditions which affect the way we die. Important topics covered include attitudes toward death; suicide, assisted suicide and euthanasia; hospice and pain management. This volume will be of interest to all who work with terminally ill patients.
