Comfort Care as Denial of Personhood
It is 2 a.m. I am very sick. I am not sure how long I have been hospitalized. The last two or three days have been a blur, a parade of procedures and people.

Their respective associations with different political groups illustrate the intense infighting …

These publications have failed to address adequately the broader cultural traditions within which Childe and other archaeologists had to operate, specifically social, political, and economic assumptions. In this paper I focus on these broader issues, particularly cont…
