“Growing daisies through the slabs”
Place-based community resilience projects are increasingly harnessing creativity to promote local resilience in response to social and environmental risks. To achieve this, co-production methods have become a popular way to develop the necessary relationships between communities and local governing institutions for equitable transformation. This paper investigated a co-produced community resilience initiative commissioned in North Lanarkshire, Sc…

Towards representative resilience
Community resilience policies continue to grow in popularity as a strategy to prepare for the local impact of forecasted environmental uncertainty, however, criticisms of community resilience discourse remain. This paper takes forward these criticisms, specifically addressing the issue of representative power over key natural resources, using Gaventa’s [Gaventa, J. 2006. “Finding the Spaces for Change: A Power Analysis.” IDS Bulletin 37 (6): 23–3…

Assessing the Impact of Housing Features and Environmental Factors on Home Indoor Radon Concentration Levels on the Navajo Nation
Uranium is naturally found in the environment as a radioactive metal element with high concentrations in the Southwestern US. In this region is the Navajo Nation, which spans approximately 69,930 square kilometers. A decay product of uranium is radon gas, a lung carcinogen that has no color, odor, or taste. Radon gas may pass from soil into homes; and, indoor accumulation has been associated with geographical location, seasonality, home construct…
Renewing America’s Infrastructure
Federal infrastructure investment is receiving a great deal of attention, largely about money: how to finance capital investment, operations, and maintenance. Less discussed but very important is modernizing federal policy to support the mature and urban-centered economy of the United States—rather than the economy it had when most of the terms of federal engagement were set. This article summarizes a RAND Corporation report which addresses recen…
Apocrypha and Literary Rhetoric of the Han, Wei, and Six Dynasty Periods
Since the Qing dynasty, the relationship between the apocrypha and literature has concerned scholars working on the Wenxuan 文選 (Selections of Refined Writings) and Wenxin diaolong 文心雕龍 (The Literary Mind and the Carving of Dragons). Apocryphal texts emerged in the Han dynasty under the guise of the Six Classics authored by Confucius, as a body of sacred documents explaining the mandates of former rulers or the induction between the celestial and …
The Ancient Qin 琴, Musical Instrument of Cultured Chinese Gentlemen
What does music convey to people living within a culture? How is it understood? How should we approach the study of music when we want to attain a synthetic and comprehensive view of musical activities in human culture? This article explores the cultural interface of the traditional Chinese musical instrument, the guqin. It brings to light the interconnections of ideas and images of this instrument with the expressive resources of Chinese culture…
Trends in Childhood Leukemia in Basrah, Iraq, 1993–2007
Objectives. Through a sister-university relationship between the University of Basrah and the University of Washington, we analyzed Ibn Ghazwan Hospital's leukemia registry data to evaluate trends in childhood leukemia since 1993. Methods. We documented leukemia cases among children aged 0 to 14 years for each of the last 15 years. Population data were obtained from a 1997 census and various subsequent estimates to calculate rates. Results. We ob…
Hagopian Et Al. Respond
We thank our German colleagues for their interest in our work to measure the changing rates of pediatric leukemia in Basrah, Iraq, over the last 15 years. We appreciate their efforts before ours to measure cancer rates in the region, and their work to support the development of an Iraqi cancer registry, including valuable training for Iraqi epidemiologists. We would be interested in hearing more about their efforts to design a case–control study …

Concepts of Health, Disease, and Vitality In Traditional Chinese Society
Irony and Argument in Dialogues , XII
Toward the end of Hume's Dialogues concerning Natural Religion , Philo catalogues the ‘frivolous observances’, ‘rapturous ecstasies’ and ‘bigotted credulity’ of ‘vulgar superstition’, concluding that ‘true religion, I allow, has no such pernicious consequences: But we must treat of religion, as it has com monly been found in the world’ (Hume, 1947: 222–3). This would be a mild enough sort of caveat were it not nigh on impossible to determine exac…
