Comparison of crude-oil induced cardiotoxicity between Pacific herring stocks
Pacific herring, a forage fish species widely distributed throughout the North Pacific, are known to be highly sensitive to crude oil toxicity during early development. Embryonic exposure produces a well-characterized syndrome initiated by cardiovascular pathology, attributable to uptake of crude-oil derived polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs). While this syndrome is documented in multiple fish species, a direct comparison between herring sto…

Soviet-American Strategic Arms Limitation and the Limits of Co-operative Competition
The United States and the Soviet Union concluded two sets of strategic arms limitation talks – SALT I and II – during the 1970s. Drawing on recent revisionist scholarship, this analysis assesses the success of SALT I and SALT II’s relative failure and I by framing Soviet-American strategic arms control in the 1970s as an exercise in co-operative competition, the pursuit of competitive strategies through nominally co-operative means. Whilst SALT I…
Who is Eligible for Voluntary Assisted Dying: Nine Medical Conditions Assessed against Five Legal Frameworks
Eligibility criteria in voluntary assisted dying legislation determine access to assistance to die. This article undertakes the practical exercise of analysing whether each of the following nine medical conditions can provide an individual with access to voluntary assisted dying: cancer, motor neurone disease, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, chronic kidney disease, Alzheimer’s disease, anorexia, frailty, spinal cord injury and Huntington’s…
Is withdrawing treatment really more problematic than withholding treatment
There is a concern that as a result of COVID-19 there will be a shortage of ventilators for patients requiring respiratory support. This concern has resulted in significant debate about whether it is appropriate to withdraw ventilation from one patient in order to provide it to another patient who may benefit more. The current advice available to doctors appears to be inconsistent, with some suggesting withdrawal of treatment is more serious than…
Ethics of selective restriction of liberty in a pandemic
Liberty-restricting measures have been implemented for centuries to limit the spread of infectious diseases. This article considers if and when it may be ethically acceptable to impose selective liberty-restricting measures in order to reduce the negative impacts of a pandemic by preventing particularly vulnerable groups of the community from contracting the disease. We argue that the commonly accepted explanation—that liberty restrictions may be…
Comparative and Critical Analysis of Key Eligibility Criteria for Voluntary Assisted Dying under Five Legal Frameworks
Eligibility criteria determine a crucial question for all voluntary assisted dying frameworks: who can access assistance to die? This article undertakes a critical and comparative analysis of these criteria across five legal frameworks: existing laws in Victoria, Western Australia, Oregon and Canada, along with a model Bill for reform. Key aspects of these criteria analysed are capacity requirements; the nature of the medical condition that will …
Why lockdown of the elderly is not ageist and why levelling down equality is wrong
In order to prevent the rapid spread of COVID-19, governments have placed significant restrictions on liberty, including preventing all non-essential travel. These restrictions were justified on the basis the health system may be overwhelmed by COVID-19 cases and in order to prevent deaths. Governments are now considering how they may de-escalate these restrictions. This article argues that an appropriate approach may be to lift the general lockd…
What History Can Teach
Most analyses of arms control during the Cold War focus on its role in maintaining strategic stability between the United States and the Soviet Union. However, history shows that the superpowers' search for strategic stability is insufficient to explain the roots and course of negotiations. This essay argues that arms control was used as one tool in a broader strategy of war prevention, designed to contain a series of challenges to U.S. and Sovie…
Technology, politics, and development: Domestic criticism of the 1975 Brazilian-West German nuclear agreement
The article analyzes the domestic debate regarding the Brazil-West Germany nuclear agreement of 1975. A number of scientists and opposition politicians sought to use the apparent failings of the agreement to critique the military’s claims regarding the deal’s contribution to Brazilian economic development and nuclear status. While limited in its immediate impact, the opposition outlined major themes that would come to the fore later in the decade…
The Double Game
This book tracks the development of the United States’ first antiballistic missile system from the beginning of the John F. Kennedy administration through its almost total prohibition with the Antiballistic Missile (ABM) Treaty, which the United States and Soviet Union signed in May 1972. Historians generally interpret the Strategic Arms Limitation Talks that led to the ABM Treaty as signaling the United States’ acceptance of strategic stability …
First Steps toward Salt, 1966–1969
The chapter analyzes the Johnson administration’s failure to begin substantive strategic arms limitation talks with the Soviet Union. Johnson and McNamara were overly optimistic regarding the USSR’s willingness to concede nuclear superiority to the United States, believing that the strain of an arms race on the Soviet economy would be too great. The chapter argues that this economic determinism based on a US-centric model of modernization that pr…
Reconciliation with Necessity and the Race to the Summit, 1971–1972: The Demise of America's First Missile Defense System and the Rise of Strategic Arms Limitation
This chapter agues that Nixon and Kissinger reconciled themselves to their weak hand during the final eighteen months of the Strategic Arms Limitation Talks. With negotiations on Vietnam dragging on and no US–China breakthrough in prospect, Nixon and Kissinger effectively adopted US–Soviet détente based on strategic arms limitation as the central fulfilment of Nixon’s promise to open “an era of negotiation” with the communist world. With eroding …
Eight Lost Years? Nixon, Ford, Kissinger and the Non-Proliferation Regime, 1969–1977
The years following the signature of the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT) of 1968 have generally been seen as a period of neglect in US non-proliferation policy. While joining recent scholarship questioning this, the article also shows that the policies that emerged from the Nixon–Ford years were the product of a broad range of factors that constrained both the United States’ ability and willingness to build an effective non-proliferation r…
Putting Nuclear Security in Historical Perspective
From the Grass Roots to the Summit: The Impact of US Suburban Protest on US Missile-Defence Policy, 1968–72
Whilst most historians have focused on the importance of the nuclear balance and triangular diplomacy in shaping the progress of the Strategic Arms Limitation Talks (SALT), this paper argues that the Nixon administration was also significantly constrained by strong suburban opposition to the emplacement of anti-ballistic missile (ABM) batteries on the periphery of US cities such as Boston, Chicago, and Seattle. This groundswell of opposition incr…
Childhood Temperament‐based Anticipatory Guidance in an Hmo Setting: A Longitudinal Study
This study investigates whether individualized, anticipatory temperament guidance could benefit the parent‐child relationship and improve children's mental health over time. Parents of preschoolers in a health management organization completed a temperament questionnaire, received written parenting information tailored to their child's temperament, and were asked to complete a program evaluation questionnaire. The numbers of subsequent visits to …
An Economic Bridgehead: Weimar Germany's Attempt to Mediate Between Soviet Russia and the United States
Between 1919 and 1926 Weimar Germany pursued a foreign policy that sought to place Germany in a position to mediate between Soviet Russia and the United States. In particular, Berlin was eager to act as a mediator in the economic and commercial relations between these two powers. Germany hoped that such a policy would align it with two Powers that, like itself, were hostile to the Versailles order. Berlin also hoped that such a relationship would…
To Transform the Revolution into an Evolution: Underlying Assumptions of German Foreign Policy toward Soviet Russia, 1919-27
During the 1920s, the German Foreign Office looked to Russia as an important diplomatic partner in its efforts to revise the Versailles settlement. The radical nature of the Bolshevik regime, however, complicated Berlin’s efforts to build a close relationship with Moscow. Ultimately, Berlin believed that Soviet Russia would evolve away from Bolshevism and that through a policy of economic engagement Berlin could promote this process. This article…

On the Idea of a University
Starting from Newman's concept of the university as a place of liberal education, Professor Cameron examines how today's university functions, what its aims should be and what its strengths and deficiencies are, and presents some proposals for reform. He argues that liberal education, in which knowledge is pursued for its own sake as well as for the advantages it may bring, should remain the core of university studies, although he emphasizes that…
An Indian Summer
Parental treatment, children’s temperament, and the risk of childhood behavioral problems: 1. Relationships between parental characteristics and changes in children's temperament over time
Preschool children's temperament scores, correlated with eight parental domains, revealed that parental intolerance, inconsistency, and conflict were associated with negative temperament changes; strictness and maternal concern/protectiveness with both positive and negative changes, depending on age and sex. Implications with respect to the etiology of children's behavioral problems are explored
Parental treatment, children's temperament, and the risk of childhood behavioral problems: 2. Initial temperament, parental attitudes, and the incidence and form of behavioral problems
Childhood behavioral problems are found to be related to both early temperament and parental behavior, in that first-year temperament scores predicted mild (but not more severe) problems. A parental pathology scale discriminated more severe cases among girls only; more severe cases among boys were accompanied by negative temperament changes. For both sexes, the form of subsequent behavioral problems was associated with first-year temperament patt…
