collection of events and perceptions. Each perception has the potential to change in an instant, but only if the individual is emotionally involved. In “One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest” by Ken Kesey, Kesey demonstrates that life remains an illusion until traumatic life events alter this self-perception--providing the individual is capable of experiencing empathy. In the cases of Bromden and McMurphy during their time in the mental institution, their view of reality alters drastically by…

statement, or word even, can have a lasting impact on your life. It can stay with you forever, and sit there in your mind, taunting. The sword can kill; you’re here one minute and gone the next.

Addressing public perceptions of climate-change risk can be challenging, due to the socio-cultural construction of risk and its multi-dimensional complexity (Etkin and Ho, 2007). Thus, differing perspectives on climate…
