Health care is a service that solely sustains many individuals living with short or lifelong ailments. Notably, people may have different or similar health issues. In recent years, technology has been greatly induced in the medical world for various purposes, such as x-rays, Computed Tomography (CT) scan, and MRI (Magnetic Resonance Imaging) scans among others. However, medical practitioners have taken up the instruments because a new problem has emerged, which is overtesting whereby patients undergo a series of tests before doctors give their diagnosis. Although each different test done reveals a medical condition that needs treatment, they aim at giving medication to illnesses that would never have caused harm to patients. Health administration and caregiving is a matter that binds every individual to the same eventual circumstance. Gawande, the author, reads an article concerning unnecessary care and it draws his attention since it claims that much of the mortality is caused due to inadequate care. When he seeks proof of that, he finds out that the same thing was happening in his vicinity. Out of the eight patients that were at his clinic, seven of them had been victims of overtesting (Gawande, par 5). During that day, the last patient…

Framework for Analysis Techniques of Moral Reasoning There are various situations that require an individual to apply morally sound and reprehensible aspects. A morally sound state involves applying principles of the dangers or benefits of a situation (Bench-Capon & Modgil, 2017). A morally reprehensible state, on the other hand, involves an individual imposing a censure or rebuke based on the situation (Bench-Capon & Modgil, 2017). According to the techniques of moral reasoning and argumentation, both morally sound and reprehensible states acknowledge that an action is either wrong or right (Van Eemeren & Grootendorst, 2016). However, morally sound state focuses on the consequences of a situation, whereas morally reprehensible state focuses on the individual’s reaction towards the situation. Criteria for Assessing the Attributes Through Baird’s Four Lenses Every individual in the world has different views regarding various issues affecting the world. According to Baird’s theory, every individual view the world through any of the following four different ethical lenses, which include rights or responsibilities, results, relationship, and reputation lens (Baird & Calvard, 2018). The rights lens involves relying on rational thoughts to make decisions through application of individual rights (Baird & Calvard, 2018). The individuals who rely on this perspective value…

Thesis Statement The purpose of this thesis is to investigate the consequences of being Palestinian during the conflict that has taken place there since 1948. The trauma of living in such extreme circumstances has led to suffering and trauma for many Palestinians. Authors who lived through the conflict have channeled their pain into works based around the incidents they witnessed. So, this paper will investigate the human trauma that results from living in a war-torn country and the way this alters lives forever. The paper will analyses the trauma evident in various works of fiction which rely heavily on experience for their content. It also aims to dissect the identity of those who live as Palestinians, whether in their homeland or forced to live elsewhere. There is a plethora of relevant literature based around the conflict in Palestine. Novels abound from authors who have firsthand experience of life in Palestine and they have used this experience to convey the challenges that inhabitants face as they attempt to live a normal life in an abnormal environment. From studying that literature and researching the effects of trauma on human beings who live through extraordinary violence and restrictions. This information will be related…

Introduction The relationships that are formed between families have always remained a source of controversy. For most families, having either of their children get together in marriage comes as a welcomed resolution that strengthens their relations. However, there are instances where the dysfunctions that exist between two married couples affect the next generation in a manner that the parents did not anticipate. Discussing some of these nuances continues to be of social importance especially because they are recurrent in society. The novels that discuss such issues often become prime selections for movie adaptation as the themes that are presented in them are relatable and often timeless. Additionally, these films often have the potential of having their merits and in rare instances inspire sequels. Adaptation Film adaptations have continued to receive a great deal of criticism because of the differences that are often realized between the original source materials and the finished film. One challenge that the screenplay writer encounters when developing film adaptations is defining the narrative structure of the film (Coppieters). This can be very difficult given the difference in the structure and literary styles of novels and screenplays. Often, the writers must ensure that they are able to…

Summary The issue of refugees has been a global concern which needs to be addressed by finding its main course and the strategies to help the oppressed. There exist different definitions of the terminology, but Katarina Mozetič prefers a unique approach of described refugees as victims of the conflict. Further, she refers to them as people who are out of their social, personal, and political histories. Sweden is described as having a few domestic doctors based on minimal training programs and high population growth. Thus, this is outlined as the primary cause for the recruitment of foreign professionals. The thesis contributes significantly to the understanding of refugees and foreign physicians, hence massively adding to the theoretical debate in migration studies. Mainly, Katarina Mozetič’s thesis is aimed at exploring the experiences of non-European physicians who travelled to Sweden as refugees. The study also accounts for spatial and social movement as well as the refugee’s subjective perceptions about their wellbeing. The research questions which were being focused on Mozetič’s thesis were based on professional trajectories of refugees and how the use of non-European union doctors affects each other. Moreover, the relationship between refugees and the professional identities of non-European Union doctors was…

Introduction Although many people try to fight for their identity, the identity of a person is solely dependent on the behavior or personality of that person, and this behavior is influenced by both external and internal environment of the named individual. Different people respond differently to the environment they live in. This is depicted in the two books; “The Man Who Was Almost a Man” by Dave Sanders in and “Barn Burning” by Sarty Snopes. Dave Sanders is a protagonist who at his young age felt that he was not being recognized as a man. He gets irritated by the way he is treated at the workplace by the rest of the workers and tries, by all means, to identify himself as a man and change the perspective of the other people towards him. He goes ahead and purchases a gun as a way of trying to prove that he is a grown-up. Sarty, on the other hand, is a boy who portrays himself as a mature boy and has a sense of dignity, justice, peace, and loyalty. These stories bring us to the evaluation of human behavior and his or her environment and the effect they have on their…

Harlem Renaissance students are all familiar with the poet Langston Hughes, yet the singer Gladys Bentley is not even a footnote in most accounts of the period. For many years, although Hughes’ sexual orientation was sometimes questioned, it was not the focus of most criticism of him or his body of work. However, Bentley did not even become known to modern audiences and readers until it was revealed by LGBTQ researchers that she was not only a contemporary of “Ma” Rainey, Ethel Waters and other Harlem Renaissance divas, but was also a cross-dressing lesbian (Phillipson 2011). With the flourishing of art in Harlem, Langston Hughes and others saw the birth of “the dream of racial equality” that was later quashed by the economic devastation of the Great Depression (Standish 2018, p. 45). Famously in his poem, “Harlem” Hughes wondered what would happen to that dream. “Will it decay or evolve? Will it fade or be reborn?” (Standish 2018, p. 45). The black and queer activism that came later, particularly after the AIDS epidemic, answers that question. But at the time, Harlem was a powder keg of black and queer creativity. Hughes’ works have been dissected to determine proof of his…

Profitability with Sustainability Practices Going green in the modern era benefits not only the environment but also the companies. Being environmental-friendly must not necessarily carry cost implications as it is an avenue for new market opportunities, a catalyst for innovation, and a potential revenue stream. A good section of businesses in the hospitality sector have been motivated to pursue sustainability out of idealism and pragmatism (Haanaes, Michael, Jurgens, & Rangan, 2013). However, some of them have consistently recorded growth and generated profit margins from sustainable undertakings. These gains are clear demonstrations that the trade-offs between sustainability and profitability are not necessary. Rather, entities in the hospitality sectors can pursue sustainability for its benefits while still exploiting the powerful path it offers to reinvent key business aspects, such as scalability.

Chapter 1: Abstract The jury system can be traced from the ancient English system. The jury system was introduced in the United Kingdom in the 12th century by Henry II. During this period, the jury system was meant to hear and determine land disputes. The jury was initially made up of about twelve free men. The jury system practice is now common in the United States of America. The Kingdom of Saudi Arabia is an Islamic state. The country’s judicial system is based on Islamic laws, popularly known as Sharia laws. At the apex of the country’s legal system is the king. The system grants the king the powers of a court of appeal and a source of pardon. Furthermore, the kingdom’s legal system is divided into three main parts, that is, the Sharia courts, Board of Grievances, and the third part is the various governmental committees within the ministries. The three main components of the kingdom’s judicial system are further divided into sub-groups. The Kingdom of Saudi Arabia does not practice the modern law because its form of the legal system does not adhere to Montesquieu theory and spirit of separation of power. The kingdom does not promote separation…

Rocket 88 by Jackie Breston and his Delta Cats Rocket 88 by Jackie Breston and his Delta Cats (1951) is the first song I listened to. This record was recognized in 1991 by the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, and the first ever Rock music to be recorded. The signature sound of a distorted guitar was what qualified it as the first Rock and Roll song. The interesting fact about this song is that the distorted guitar sound happened accidentally after the amp of the guitar got ruined as the band was traveling to record the song (Esmonde par. 3). I found this recording surprising and confusing with regards to whom it was attributed to. Some people attribute the song to Ike Turner and his Kings of Rhythm and others to Jackie Breston. However, further research revealed that Jackie Breston was a member of Ike Turner’s band as a saxophonist.
