In the matter of Stalker, the Chernobyl nuclear accident in 1986 was what had not yet occurred.

The reality that was now being faced included an exclusion zone in Chernobyl with infiltrators who…

Often times scholars focus on the integration of newly arrived immigrants into American society; while other scholars focus on the enforcement and regulation of laws for immigrants entering the United States.

There are many factors that contribute to the decisions that are made as part of nursing clinical practice. Different types of knowledge are a large part of why novice nurses make the decisions they do. But there is something deep down inside that is really inexplicable, some say even impossible that is part of decision making too. Intuition, that urge to act a certain way without really knowing why, is an important part of why nurses, even the newest ones do the things they do. Robert, Tilley,…

They use the same phrase, “being in the world” over…
