The Force of Destiny - Christopher Duggan

The greatness of Italy''s culture and way of life have had a powerful attraction for many generations of visitors. This has created an overwhelming sense that Italy is a fundamentally benign and easy going country. The Force of Destiny, Christopher Duggan''s immensely enjoyable new book, lays waste to this idea. While sharing everyone''s enthusiasm for Italy as a place, he strongly distinguishes this from its political role over the past two centuries, which has been both vicious and ruinous for Europe as a whole.

Fašistické hlasy - Christopher Duggan

Kniha nabízí neotřelý a zneklidňující pohled na zemi v područí charismatického vůdce. Christopher Duggan sleduje vývoj fašismu od samých počátků až po jeho dopad na současnost a zkoumá, proč se toto hnutí těšilo takové podpoře většiny obyvatel Itálie. Zaměřuje se na to, jak mimořádnou moc měl duce nad Itálií a jak došlo k tomu, že se stal přímo zosobněním fašismu. Autor vychází ze zřídka zkoumaných pramenů, jako jsou dopisy a deníky, novinové zprávy, spisy tajné policie, populární písně a rozhlasové pořady, a zabývá se tím, jaké zkušenosti s fašismem měli obyčejní lidé, jak tato ideologie ovlivňovala politiku, náboženství a každodenní život do té míry, že Mussoliniho odkaz přetrvává v Itálii až do dnešních dnů.

The Lais of Marie De France - Marie France

Marie de France (fl. late twelfth century) is the earliest known French woman poet and her lais - stories in verse based on Breton tales of chivalry and romance - are among the finest of the genre. Recounting the trials and tribulations of lovers, the lais inhabit a powerfully realized world where very real human protagonists act out their lives against fairy-tale elements of magical beings, potions and beasts. De France takes a subtle and complex view of courtly love, whether telling the story of the knight who betrays his fairy mistress or describing the noblewoman who embroiders her sad tale on the shroud for a nightingale killed by a jealous and suspicious husband.For more than seventy years, Penguin has been the leading publisher of classic literature in the English-speaking world. With more than 1,700 titles, Penguin Classics represents a global bookshelf of the best works throughout history and across genres and disciplines.

Actionable Intelligence in Healthcare

Actionable intelligence can take many forms, from informing health policymakers on effective strategies for the population to providing direct and predictive insights on patients to healthcare providers so they can achieve positive outcomes. It can assist those performing clinical research where relevant statistical methods are applied to both identify the efficacy of treatments and improve clinical trial design. It also benefits healthcare data standards groups through which pertinent data governance policies are implemented to ensure quality data are obtained, measured, and evaluated for the benefit of all involved.

Improving Quality in Healthcare - Murray Anderson-Wallace, Nick Downham

This book is for anyone who is interested in improving quality in healthcare. It will appeal to those who are traditionally responsible for quality matters, as well as practicing clinicians and leaders. Unusually, it will also be as relevant to those who have the keenest interest in the quality of care - interested citizens. It is a deliberate antidote to the anti-intellectual, QI tool driven, mechanistic approach that still dominates much of healthcare quality improvement work. The authors - both of whom have extensive experience of working in and around quality issues in healthcare at a national, regional and local level - challenge such approaches, which they believe fail to take account of patient and organisational context and invite reductionism, cherry picking, atomisation of complex issues, leading ultimately to simplistic and unsustainable outcomes. Key features of the book: ·      An exploration of some of the often-overlooked and misunderstood core concepts of quality; their history and meaning in a contemporary context. ·      A framework to "question the work" using four interconnected conceptual domains as a valuable framework to consider improving quality and reducing failure demand. ·      ...
