the play and interpreting, when reading the play, the narrator’s text tells you exactly what is happening. However, unlike most plays, I actually understood the play as a whole a little better after watching the live production. This is because the advanced illustration that I discussed previously, allowed me to actually see and feel how Christopher’s mind worked. Simply reading the play, I was just reading words and left to interpret it myself. However, watching the play I was able to witness…

Ways of Knowing All professions endeavor to develop a body of knowledge that guides and defines their particular profession, nursing as a profession is no exception.

In the following excerpt from “Sociopath Divine” by Richard King Perkins II, the speaker, describes himself: I’m not known for caring. I’m starved by empathy, friends, the light of dusk. You never noticed me until I switched on; an optic nerve black out waiting for the orange trucks and moments of sacrilege; a wind stream where the night sweeps away like Jägermeister and Grand Marnier.

Section II will consist of my objection to this point in effort to counter it. Section III will include a possible response Singer would give for this raised objection. My main argument for Singer’s argument against speciesism considers…

Throughout the 20th century, and especially since the 1960s and 70s, more and more women have entered the wage-labour-market, rapidly increasing their participation in paid employment. However, women came to the market on unequal terms, and despite some progress, are still face significant inequality compared to men at work. Women’s experience of work has been marred by both vertical and horizontal occupational segregation. Vertical segregation refers to the ways in which women have been…

Introduction “A few weeks ago, I had the privilege of conducting my first subjective interview for my Advanced Injury Management class. During this time I was tested on my interaction with the patient and how information from the consultation was charted. Reflection is important to recapture an experience, evaluate it, and learn from it (Boud, et al.1985).

Journey’s End provides a very well-constructed set of examples to help the viewer understand the plight of military…
