Antitumor Drug Radiation Interactions

By: Bridget T. Hill

This volume reviews the experimental data on drug-radiation interactions. Special emphasis is placed on clinically-useful antitumor drugs. Particular reference is made to appropriate timing, concentration and sequencing of drug-radiation combinations. It includes discussions on the relative merits of experimental data derived from animal versus human tumors. This book also presents a section on the potential for new model systems or alternative test procedures for evaluating therapeutic benefits and cytotoxicities. Results of randomized clinical studies are reviewed with emphasis on recent studies involving protocols specifically designed to test the benefits from optimal integration of chemotherapy with radiotherapy. This book is intended for laboratory researchers in the field and clinicians interested in using the combined modality approach. It is also a useful resource for radiologists, oncologists, and all those interested in cancer research.

The Human Rights of Older Persons

A Human Rights-Based Approach to Elder Law

By: Bridget Lewis,Kelly Purser,Kirsty Mackie

This book provides a comprehensive human rights analysis of key areas of law affecting older persons, including legal capacity; elder abuse; accommodation and aged care; healthcare; employment; financial security, retirement, and estate planning; and social and cultural participation. The research identifies individual autonomy and participation in decision-making as fundamental to a human rights-based approach to elder law. The book argues that a paradigm shift must occur away from traditional medical and charity-based understandings of ‘old age’ to instead acknowledge older persons as active holders of enforceable rights. The book argues that a Convention on the Rights of Older Persons is an essential tool in achieving this, but that even without a dedicated treaty there is much to be gained from a human rights-based approach. Significantly, because the issues arising in ‘old age’ are often the culmination of experiences occurring throughout the life course, a human rights-based approach to elder law must begin with a commitment to human rights for people of all ages.

The Story of Australian Commercial Radio

By: Bridget Griffen-Foley

Following the development of the most pervasive medium in Australia, this is the first full-scale, national history of the country's commercial radio. From the experiments and schemes of the 1920s through the introduction of digital radio in 2009, this sweeping study moves from Sydney to Adelaide, Launceston to Cairns, Broken Hill to Albany. Exploring the varied programming genres of drama, music, quiz shows, sports, and politics, the in-depth research traces the engagement of commercial radio with various communities of Australian listeners. In addition, many of the iconic names of Australian radio are featured, including George Edwards, Grace Gibson, Jack Davey, Bob Dyer, Bob Rogers, Norman Banks, Andrea, Brian White, John Laws, and Alan Jones.

The No-gossip Zone

A No-nonsense Guide to a Healthy, High-performing Work Environment

By: Sam Chapman,Bridget Sharkey

The first business guide to address the leading challenge to workplace productivity and employee retention: gossip Business leaders routinely cite gossip as one of the top problems their companies face in terms of productivity and employee retention. According to a recent study performed by Equisys, the average employee spends 65 hours a year gossiping at the office. Luckily, there is a way to turn the tide and create a positive, productive work place...and it all begins with The No Gossip Zone. Sam Chapman, the owner of one of Chicago's top public relations firms, has found a way to curb the corrosive chatter and create an environment of fun, acceptance, and empowerment at work. The No Gossip program was created and honed in Chapman's firm, where employees rave about the results. From clients to coworkers, gossip is outlawed and authentic communication is encouraged...and it feels great!
