Angus L. Macdonald
by T. Stephen HendersonPerhaps one of the most influential Canadian premiers of the Twentieth Century and one of the leading political intellectuals of his generation, Angus L. Macdonald dominated politics in Nova Scotia for more than twenty years, serving as premier from 1933 to 1940 and again from 1945 until his death in 1954. One rival referred to him as "the pope" out of respect for his political infallibility. From 1940 to 1945 Macdonald guided Canada's war effort at sea as Minister of National Defence for Naval Services; under his watch, the Royal Canadian Navy expanded faster than any other navy in the world.This new work by T. Stephen Henderson is the first academic biography of Macdonald, whose life provides a framework for the study of Canada's pre- and post-war transformation, and a rare opportunity to compare the political history of the two periods. Generally, Macdonald's political thinking reflected a progressive, interwar liberalism that found its clearest expression in the 1940 Rowell-Sirois report on federal-provincial relations. The report proposed a redistribution of responsibilities and resources that would allow poorer provinces greater autonomy and reduce overlapping jurisdictions in the federal system. Ottawa abandoned Rowell-Sirois in the postwar period, and Macdonald fell out of step with the national Liberal party that he had once seemed destined to lead. Within Nova Scotia, however, his ardent defence of provincial powers and his commitment to building a modern infrastructure enabled him to win election after election and transform the face and identity of his province.
Angustias de un pez-volador
by Pedro MarangoniEl más patético de los animales, el Hombre-pez-volador, en este salto de un segundo de consciencia transitoria colecciona todo lo que puede acopiar, plumas al viento, granos de polvo, alguna hoja que quizás esté flotando en la superficie. Se tropieza con el pez que salta al lado, toma la iniciativa. Y después se disuelve en el agua con algunas salpicaduras que rápidamente desaparecen. Si en el micro momento antes de tocar con la cabeza el océano de la Nada, preguntáramos el color del maravilloso cielo que acababa de recorrer, no sabría la respuesta... ... Transitoriedad es la palabra que mejor definía a Arturo, porque así se sentía: un ser pasando de una forma a otra. Viajando como un pez-volador que había nacido cuando comenzaba a salir del agua para su salto y que, momentos después, caería nuevamente en la inconsciencia cuando volviera a tocar la superficie límpida, tranquila, indiferente de un mar infinito llamado Universo. Sabía que en esta reentrada por más que se agitara, sólo provocaría algunas salpicaduras que pronto desaparecerían.
Angustie di un pesce volante
by Pedro Marangoni Federico JorioIl più patetico tra gli animali, l’Uomo-pesce volante, in questo salto di un secondo di coscienza transitoria colleziona tutto quanto può racimolare, piume di penna al vento, granelli di polvere, foglie che, casualmente, galleggiasse sulla superficie. Si lancia sul pesce che salta al suo fianco, prendendo l’iniziativa. E dopo scompare in mare, creando schizzi che rapidamente si dissolvono. Se, nel micro momento prima che la testa impatti con l’oceano del Nulla, gli domandassimo il colore del meraviglioso cielo che ha appena terminato di percorrere, non conoscerebbe la risposta…Transitorietà è la parola che ben definiva Arthur, perché si sentiva così: un essere che passava da una forma all’altra. Si vedeva come un pesce volante che nacque quando cominciò ad uscire dall’acqua per il suo salto e che, dopo alcuni istanti, sarebbe ricaduto nuovamente nell’incoscienza, allorché tornava a toccare la superficie limpida, tranquilla, indifferente di un mare infinito chiamato Universo. Sapeva che in questo rientro, per quanto si agitasse, avrebbe creato degli schizzi, che si sarebbero dissolti subito dopo. Sapeva di essere tutto e nulla allo stesso tempo, giacché era fatto di Arthur, di pietre, d’alberi, d’acqua e di tutto il resto di cui era composto il Tutto, pezzi intercambiabili che costruivano il caso. E il caso dotò Arthur di una qualità dubbiosa, quella di far uso di una coscienza transitoria, di vedersi e sentirsi, di osservare, in questo salto millimetrico ed effimero. Era un povero essere umano, il più inutile delle creature in una realtà ugualmente inutile.
Angélique
by Lorena Gale"And in seventeen thirty-four a Negro slave set fire to the City of Montreal and was hanged..." With this bald statement of history as a basis, Lorena Gale constructs a vivid portrait of a time when captive people had no say in the outcome of their lives. A rich, poetic evocation of a graceful yet cruel time—a time when “civilized” citizens still bought and sold slaves. This is a time when the thoughts and feelings of these captive people had no bearing on the outcome of their lives, unless they were outraged and brave enough to try and shake their bonds. Angélique is the winner of the du Maurier National Playwriting Competition and was nominated Outstanding New Play in Calgary’s Betty Mitchell Awards, 1998.
Anh's Anger: An Anh's Anger Story (Anh's Anger Story)
by Christiane Krömer Gail SilverChildren experience anger on a regular basis, but lack the coping skills to guide them through these difficult moments. In Anh's Anger, five-year-old Anh becomes enraged when his grandfather interrupts playtime with a summons to the dinner table. When Anh's grandfather takes the time to help Anh fully experience his anger by suggesting he go to his room and "sit with his anger," Anh discovers a positive method by which to work through his feelings. This remarkable book teaches children to both acknowledge and resolve their difficult emotions, making it an invaluable tool for parents and teachers alike.
Anhedonia: Conceptual Issues And Neurobiological Advances
by Michael S. RitsnerThis is the first comprehensive two-volume collection on anhedonia, a disorder that played an important role in psychopathology theories at the beginning of the twentieth century. Anhedonia is a condition in which the capacity of pleasure is partially or completely lost, and it refers to both a personality trait, and a "state symptom" in various neuropsychiatric and physical disorders. It has a putative neural substrate, originating in the dopaminergic mesolimbic and mesocortical reward circuit. Over the past three decades cognitive psychology and behavioral neuroscience have expanded our understanding of anhedonia and other reward-related processes. The aim of this new two-volume collection on anhedonia is to highlight the contributions of eminent scientists in this field as well as to provide readers with comprehensive accounts of recent developments as perceived by the authors. This monograph is divided into five parts. Volume I contains parts one and two (Conceptual Issues and Neurobiological Advances) including 14 chapters that serve as an introduction and overview of conceptual issues. Volume II contains three parts (Anhedonia in Psychotic Disorders, Anhedonia in Mood and Personality Disorders, and Anhedonia in Neurological and Physical Disorders) including 15 chapters that provide an overview of the construct, measurement of anhedonia in schizophrenia spectrum disorders, hedonic capacity and related factors in schizophrenia and schizoaffective disorder, anhedonia as an indicator of genetic liability for schizophrenia, and as a trait marker for depression, the role of an anhedonia in trauma-related disorders, anorexia nervosa, stress-induced eating disorders, schizotypal traits and risk of suicide. This book will be of interest to a broad spectrum of readers including psychiatrists, psychologists, neurologists, neuroscientists, endocrinologists, pharmacologists, general practitioners, geriatricians, graduate students, and health care providers in the fields of mental health.
Anhedonia: Preclinical, Translational, and Clinical Integration (Current Topics in Behavioral Neurosciences #58)
by Diego A. PizzagalliAnhedonia is a key symptom (and often risk factor) for various neuropsychiatric disorders, including depression, schizophrenia, substance use disorders, post-traumatic stress disorders, and Parkinson's Disease, among others. Across disorders, anhedonia has been associated with worse disease course, including poor response to pharmacological, psychological and neurostimulation treatments as well as completed suicide. Mounting evidence emerging from preclinical and translational sciences has clarified that "anhedonia" can be parsed into partially independent subcomponents, including incentive motivation, consummatory pleasure, reward learning, and effort-based decision making, pointing to distinct neurobiological substrates that could underlie anhedonic phenotypes. Taking an integrative approach that emphasizes cross-species integration and dimensional conceptualization of mental illnesses (e.g., Research Domain Criteria (RDoC)), this book represents the most comprehensive evaluation, synthesis and integration of theories and empirical findings focused on anhedonia.Organized across five parts, the handbook starts with chapters on the history, etiology, and assessments of anhedonia (Part I), followed by a section on the role of anhedonia in psychiatric and neurological disorders (Part II). Using the RDoC Matrix as a guide, Part III presents chapters synthetizing preclinical and clinical findings on different reward processing subdomains (e.g., reward responsiveness, reward valuation, reward learning). Part IV is focused on selected special topics, including historical and current perspectives on the transdiagnostic nature and importance of social anhedonia, the role of inflammation in the pathophysiology of anhedonia, the use of computational modeling to “dissect” anhedonia and improve its understanding, and links between anhedonia and suicide. Finally, Part V includes chapters on pharmacological, psychological and neurostimulation treatments for anhedonia.

Anheuser-Busch and Campbell Taggart
by Erik Sirri Jonathan ShakesIn 1984, the SEC accused Paul Thayer and eight others of insider trading. Some of Thayer's inside information came from his position on the board of Anheuser-Busch, where he had learned about Busch's 1982 merger with Campbell Taggart before the merger was publicly announced. The case deals with Busch's reaction after learning about the SEC suit. In considering possible actions by Busch, students may explore the workings of capital markets and attempt to estimate the amount of financial damage done to Busch by the insider trading. Other issues involve ethics, the allocation of management resources on costly legal battles, and the differing objectives of board members and managers.

Anima Mundi: The Rise Of The World Soul Theory In Modern German Philosophy (International Archives of the History of Ideas Archives internationales d'histoire des idées #202)
by Miklós VassányiThis work presents and philosophically analyzes the early modern and modern history of the theory concerning the soul of the world, anima mundi. The initial question of the investigation is why there was a revival of this theory in the time of the early German Romanticism, whereas the concept of the anima mundi had been rejected in the earlier, classical period of European philosophy (early and mature Enlightenment). The presentation and analysis starts from the Leibnizian-Wolffian school, generally hostile to the theory, and covers classical eighteenth-century physico-theology, also reluctant to accept an anima mundi. Next, it discusses early modern and modern Christian philosophical Cabbala (Böhme and Ötinger), an intellectual tradition which to some extent tolerated the idea of a soul of the world. The philosophical relationship between Spinoza and Spinozism on the one hand, and the anima mundi theory on the other is also examined. An analysis of Giordano Bruno's utilization of the concept anima del mondo is the last step before we give an account of how and why German Romanticism, especially Baader and Schelling asserted and applied the theory of the Weltseele. The purpose of the work is to prove that the philosophical insufficiency of a concept of God as an ens extramundanum instigated the Romantics to think an anima mundi that can act as a divine and quasi-infinite intermediary between God and Nature, as a locum tenens of God in physical reality.
