Multi-Regional Input–Output Analysis of the Japanese Economy
by Mitsuo YamadaThis book presents multi-regional input-output tables from the prefectural level as well as non-survey methods for creating the tables that divide a prefecture into sub-regions—into municipalities, for instance. In this book, the reader will find a survey of Japan's multilayered input–output tables and the research employing them, with an explanation of how to compile and apply a multi-regional input–output table for the country’s economy. Also included is research on currently important topics in municipal economies, carried out by municipality-based input–output analysis. Many input–output tables already have been compiled for each of the 47 prefectures of Japan as well as for major municipalities such as ordinance-designated cities, i.e., with populations greater than 500,000. The input–output table, or “benchmark table”, for the entire country, which is jointly compiled by 10 ministries and agencies including the Ministry of Internal Affairs and Communications, provides the essential information for the compilation of regional input-output tables. In recent years, there has been a great deal of interest in the estimation of municipality-based input–output tables to help provide perspective for regional economic revitalization and evidence-based policymaking. This book, with its information on how to create and apply multiregional input–output tables, is useful for graduate students, researchers, and local government officials who are concerned with this field.

The Logic of Mysticism (Historical-Analytical Studies on Nature, Mind and Action #16)
by Ermanno BencivengaThis book reconciles the worlds of mysticism and logic, building on the author’s previous groundbreaking work in oceanic logic. Historically, the seemingly distinct domains of mysticism and logic have been viewed through a narrow lens through which logic and mysticism have been considered fundamentally separate from each other. The author expands on this concept and argues that logic can be understood in a broader sense. The book reveals that mystics engage in rigorous reasoning, and their writings provide fertile ground for the advancement of logical discourse. The text references insights from the fifth century B.C. through the Middle Ages to the present day, offering a compelling argument for the harmonious integration of logic and mysticism. It challenges conventional wisdom and opens new avenues for understanding the depths of human thought, making it of great interest to those interested in philosophical logic as well as history of science.

Academic Promotion for Clinicians: A Practical Guide to Promotion and Tenure in Medical Schools
by Anne WallingThis book is a practical guide to the appointment, promotion, and tenure (APT) process for clinical faculty members of medical schools. It provides insights and recommendations on career planning and academic promotion for clinical faculty members. It also addresses much of the “mythology” surrounding the APT process and demonstrates how academic promotion should be approached as a career-building process rather than a daunting high-risk event. Topics discussed in the first edition include concepts and processes within academic promotion; navigating the academic promotion and tenure process; and managing the outcome of the APT application. Academic Promotion for Clinicians is a valuable resource for clinical medicine faculty members as they engage in and successfully address the challenges of the APT process to realize their career goals. The biggest change for the new edition is the incorporation of the growing literature and many recent developments regarding career development and promotion for non-tenure track faculty including new chapters addressing the specific concerns of the largest groups, clinician-educators and those heavily involved in research or patient care. Since the previous edition, the faculty of US medical schools has grown by 25% to over 200,000 individuals, 75% of whom are physicians. Only 21% of faculty members have achieved professorial rank. This book aims to encourage interest in academic promotion and provide practical assistance to the 96,000 assistant professors and 42,000 associate professors in US medical schools. Women and members of groups historically underrepresented in medicine (URM) face unique issues in navigating academic promotion systems. These issues have received greater attention from institutions and in the literature since the first edition. The revision includes a summary of national and institutional efforts to make academic careers and promotion more desirable and feasible for women and faculty members from URM and other disadvantaged backgrounds, including discussion of outcomes and future directions for such programs. The sections on faculty perceptions and attitudes towards promotion have also been heavily revised to include consideration of the influence of important events and trends since the previous edition such as the COVID pandemic, transition of the last cohort of baby boomers into retirement age groups, and developments in literature on professional identity and career motivation. The update also addresses the influence of the growing “feminization of medicine” on academic careers. Since 2013, the number of female faculty members has risen from 61,000 (38% of total) to 85,000 (44%). Currently, 59% of instructors, 48% of assistant professors, and 41% of associate professors are women. The accelerating “flight from tenure” in clinical departments is also addressed. Updated data and graphs demonstrate the dramatic changes in tenure-related appointments of clinicians and the substantial differences across specialties. In 2023 only 19% of fulltime clinical faculty hold tenure-related appointments but this ranged from around 11% in family medicine to over 33% in public health and preventive medicine. The new edition expands the discussion of the implications of these trends on expectations for career development, and on the criteria and systems for academic promotion for clinicians. Finally, the book provides updated information on external and internal changes in the medical school environment that impact faculty careers and academic promotion. These include significant revision of the process and requirements for LCME accreditation; the demands and consequence of the “medical education revolution” and widespread curricular reforms; growing significance of team science, translational, applied and other non-traditional research; financial and other pressures on academic health centers; the continuing blurring of the distinctions between academic and other clinical institutions; and initiatives to recruit and retain non-traditio
Mahanadi River: The Environmental Challenges and Way Forward
by Jay Prakash Bhatt Ajay Kumar MishraThis book covers an overview of the Mahanadi River basin, spanning a total area of 141,581 square kilometers and extending across the states of Chhattisgarh (52.42%), Odisha (47.14%), Maharashtra (0.23%), Madhya Pradesh (0.11%), and Jharkhand (0.1%). It delves into the basin's hydro-development scenario, biodiversity, water quality, and sand mining, elucidating the pivotal role of the river in economic, social, and environmental viability of the eastern region of India.

Trial by Media: Participatory Justice in a Networked World (Palgrave Studies in Crime, Media and Culture)
by Lieve GiesThis edited collection brings together scholars from criminology, law, media and communication studies, politics and linguistics to consider the different meanings and dimensions of trial by media. Trial by media remains an under-researched and under-conceptualised phenomenon. This book sheds new light on the complex and evolving interfaces between courts, media and justice. It features original analysis of high-profile cases of media trials including Nicola Bulley (UK), Lindy Chamberlain (Australia), Chris Dawson (Australia), Sanda Dia (Belgium), Dragan Vasiljković (Australia) and Roman Zadorov (Israel). Acknowledging the risks and benefits of heightened media scrutiny of the criminal justice system, the book challenges the notion that trial by media is invariably incompatible with the requirements of natural justice. It also foregrounds ways in which media trials routinely occur in the absence of a legal trial, arguing that there is a need to broaden and rethink the concept of trial by media. The book reflects on the enduring significance of legacy media for public perceptions of the law and the disruptive impact associated with digital media. Furthermore, the collection considers the implications of trial by media for the integrity of court proceedings and the protection of human rights. It offers an assessment of the potential demise of court reporting and its traditional bridging function between courts and public opinion.

Empowering Indian Women Through Resilience: Recent Developments and Future Perspective
by Abha Singh Rahul Bhadouria Sachchidanand Tripathi Ritu Modi Shashidhar GuptaThe book examines various aspects of women empowerment in South Asia, particularly in India. The term “empowerment” refers to women’s liberation from social-economic restraints of reliance. Women worldwide actively work as leaders and establish new dimensions in all fields. Yet, in India, although women comprise around 50% of India’s population, most stay economically dependent, and in most Indian villages and towns, women are still denied fundamental education. After more than 75 years of independence as a country, we need to take a long-overdue in-depth look at empowering women in India and how women empowerment should be a powerful tool for national development. This book aims to discuss the empowerment of women through examining the social and personal challenges faced by women, as well as evaluating areas such as gender discrimination, education opportunity, and employment opportunity.
