Intelligent Design
The emergence of a serious literature on design corresponds, as well it should, to developments within professional practice itself. Until recently, designers were concerned primarily with the fashioning of objects for industrial, graphical, or decorative purposes. The available literature, not surprisingly, tilted toward superficial aesthetics (the coffee-table annuals), monographs on and sometimes by celebrity designers, and a smattering of sur…

Reyner Banham: Historian of the Immediate Future (review)
The historiography of twentieth-century design has been dominated by the remarkable dynasty of Nikolaus Pevsner, champion of the high modernists of the "first machine age," his student Reyner Banham, the perceptive and often acerbic interpreter of the popularizing second, and Banham's student Charles Jencks, who has positioned himself as the chronicler of the postmodern. Of the three, Banham is far and away the most complex thinker—he was known t…
Design and Feminism: Re-Visioning Spaces, Places, and Everyday Things (review)
Almost every professional field has had to confront the challenges posed by feminist scholarship, and they have done so on a number of different levels. In the sciences the issues have mostly concerned the history and sociology of the disciplines per se, although researchers have also investigated the possibility that the concepts of science themselves are gendered. In the engineering disciplines, where knowledge is typically generated with a mor…
Machiavellianism and Tolerance of Ambiguity
The relationship of Machiavellianism and Tolerance of Ambiguity was studied in 47 African-American college and university administrators. The mean score on Machiavellianism in the youngest group (30–40 yr.) of administrators was significantly higher on Machiavellianism than the mean of the oldest group (50 yr. and older) of administrators
Surgical Residents' Scores on Measures of Machiavellianism and Physicians' Uncertainty
51 self-reported scores on the Mach V Scale and 56 scores on Physician's Reactions to Uncertainty Constructs from surgical residents in three different specialties (30 general, 14 orthopedics, 9 urology, and 3 other) showed no significant difference between means on the two measures
Psychiatric Residents' Scores on Machiavellianism
For self-reports by 21 psychiatric residents on measures of Machiavellianism and Uncertainty no significant difference was noted by year in residency program, education, age, or gender
Machiavellian Scores of Nursing Faculty and Students
The purpose of the research was to identify differences in scores on Machiavellianism between nursing faculty and students. Measurement of Machiavellianism was on the Mach V Scale completed by 33 nursing faculty, 47 RN students completing the nursing baccalaureate, and 58 senior generic students in one baccalaureate nursing program. Each subject received a research packet coded for retrieval of the nonrespondents and reducing selection bias assoc…
Machiavellianism and Medical Career Choices
Medical career choices and Machiavellianism of 36 junior and 37 senior medical students at one private midwestern medical school were studied. Machiavellianism was measured by the Mach V Scale. Students choosing psychiatry did not score significantly higher on Machiavellianism than those choosing medicine, surgery, or other clinical medical specialties. This is contrary to previous research which indicated those medical students choosing psychiat…

Techniques of the Observer: On Vision and Modernity in the Nineteenth Century by Jonathan Crary
206 Book Reviews TECHNOLOGY AND CULTURE at the difficulty of imagining unmediated metaphors, and most will not share Limon’s worry that it will be all up for literature if science should arrive at a unified theory of reality before modern literary theory can destroy the possibility. Indeed, provocative as some of Limon’s remarks about mechanization are, historians of technology may wonder whether the defense of literature requires such anguish. J…
Administrative Role and Educational Administration Program Effectiveness: Perception by Principals
A survey of 85 graduates from 14 midwestern universities offering doctoral degrees in educational administration was carried out to assess perceptions of graduates regarding their training program. The emphasis of the survey was on how closely their training corresponded to current perceptions of their roles as educational administrators. Most indicated emphasis in graduate training should more closely match the roles of administrators

Herbert Marcuse and the Art of Liberation: An Intellectual Biography
Exploring the abortion problem in Canada
No one knows my country, neither the stranger nor its own sons. My country is hidden in the dark and teeming brains of youth upon the eve of its manhood. My country has not found itself nor felt its power nor learned its true place. It is all visions, and doubts and hopes and dreams. It is strength and weakness, despair and joy, and the wild confusions and restless strivings of a boy who has passed his boyhood, but is not yet a man. The Unknown C…
