The Color of Success

Asian Americans and the Origins of the Model Minority

By: Ellen D. Wu

The Color of Success tells of the astonishing transformation of Asians in the United States from the "yellow peril" to "model minorities"--peoples distinct from the white majority but lauded as well-assimilated, upwardly mobile, and exemplars of traditional family values--in the middle decades of the twentieth century. As Ellen Wu shows, liberals argued for the acceptance of these immigrant communities into the national fold, charging that the failure of America to live in accordance with its democratic ideals endangered the country's aspirations to world leadership. Weaving together myriad perspectives, Wu provides an unprecedented view of racial reform and the contradictions of national belonging in the civil rights era. She highlights the contests for power and authority within Japanese and Chinese America alongside the designs of those external to these populations, including government officials, social scientists, journalists, and others. And she demonstrates that the invention of the model minority took place in multiple arenas, such as battles over zoot suiters leaving wartime internment camps, the juvenile delinquency panic of the 1950s, Hawaii statehood, and the African American freedom movement. Together, these illuminate the impact of foreign relations on the domestic racial order and how the nation accepted Asians as legitimate citizens while continuing to perceive them as indelible outsiders. By charting the emergence of the model minority stereotype, The Color of Success reveals that this far-reaching, politically charged process continues to have profound implications for how Americans understand race, opportunity, and nationhood.

DNP Role Development for Doctoral Advanced Nursing Practice

By: H. Michael Dreher, PhD, RN, FAAN, ANEF,Mary Ellen Smith Glasgow, PhD, RN, ACNS-BC, ANEF, FAAN,Michael D. Dahnke, PhD,Valerie T. Cotter, DNP, AGPCNP-BC, FAANP, FAAN

Provides important new content on specific ethical, leadership, and advocacy capabilities that advance the DNP role in nursing practice This core text for the DNP curriculum encompasses all facets of the evolving advanced practice role including diverse professional opportunities and options for career advancement. With ten completely new chapters, the third edition conveys the latest developments in doctoral-level capabilities, including the specific ethical, leadership, and advocacy components that advance these roles. New content addresses health equity, role negotiation, ethical and leadership dilemmas for the clinician, and the preceptor role in relation to doctoral-level advanced practice. Considering the predominance of students seeking the Nurse Practitioner role, the book emphasizes the clinical context for the DNP along with the new AACN Domain of Professionalism. There also are contributions from Nurse Midwives, Nurse Anesthetists, Clinical Nurse Specialists, and DNPs in the Nurse Educator role. The text is distinguished by distinctive Reflective Responses to the authors of all chapters. These may be characterized as a Point-Counterpoint feature—consisting of commentaries by scholars of varying points of view—that stimulates substantive critical dialogue. It examines the role of evidence—both practice-based evidence and evidence-based practice—in the context of clinical problems and policy formation and focuses on how the doctoral advanced prepared nurse can discriminate, translate, and sometimes generate new nursing evidence. The text addresses the need for both forms of evidence and underscores the importance of innovative healthcare intervention models. Included is practical information illustrated with examples geared for both BSN-DNP students and MSN-DNP students. Content on the DNP/PhD double doctorate and the impact of DNP leadership on organizations further examines the relationship between nursing practice, education, and science. New to the Third Edition: Ten new chapters, including coverage of: COVID-19; BSN-DNP Trajectories; Practice-Based Evidence and Evidence-Based Practice; Health Equity; Role Negotiation, Ethical, Leadership, and Advocacy Roles; and 2021 AACN Essentials Expanded roles and content for students of varying experience levels Emphasis on the new AACN Domain of Professionalism throughout Key Features: Focuses on DNP role development with extensive contributions by leading DNP scholars and clinicians Delivers Reflective Responses in a Point-Counterpoint format to stimulate vigorous class discussion Provides critical thinking questions throughout including Reflective Response

Oncology Informatics

Using Health Information Technology to Improve Processes and Outcomes in Cancer

By: Bradford W. Hesse,David Ahern,Ellen Beckjord

Oncology Informatics: Using Health Information Technology to Improve Processes and Outcomes in Cancer Care encapsulates National Cancer Institute-collected evidence into a format that is optimally useful for hospital planners, physicians, researcher, and informaticians alike as they collectively strive to accelerate progress against cancer using informatics tools. This book is a formational guide for turning clinical systems into engines of discovery as well as a translational guide for moving evidence into practice. It meets recommendations from the National Academies of Science to "reorient the research portfolio" toward providing greater "cognitive support for physicians, patients, and their caregivers" to "improve patient outcomes." Data from systems studies have suggested that oncology and primary care systems are prone to errors of omission, which can lead to fatal consequences downstream. By infusing the best science across disciplines, this book creates new environments of "Smart and Connected Health." Oncology Informatics is also a policy guide in an era of extensive reform in healthcare settings, including new incentives for healthcare providers to demonstrate "meaningful use" of these technologies to improve system safety, engage patients, ensure continuity of care, enable population health, and protect privacy. Oncology Informatics acknowledges this extraordinary turn of events and offers practical guidance for meeting meaningful use requirements in the service of improved cancer care. Anyone who wishes to take full advantage of the health information revolution in oncology to accelerate successes against cancer will find the information in this book valuable. Presents a pragmatic perspective for practitioners and allied health care professionals on how to implement Health I.T. solutions in a way that will minimize disruption while optimizing practice goals Proposes evidence-based guidelines for designers on how to create system interfaces that are easy to use, efficacious, and timesaving Offers insight for researchers into the ways in which informatics tools in oncology can be utilized to shorten the distance between discovery and practice

Bioactive Polyphenols from Wine Grapes

By: Jeffrey A Stuart,Ellen L Robb

Is red wine good for you? And if so, why? How much? And what are the actual benefits? This addition to the SpringerBriefs in Cell Biology series thoroughly but succinctly answers these questions. It covers the biochemistry, health benefits and therapeutic potential of wine grapes. It begins with an overview of phytoalexin production in Vitis vinifera (Common Grape Vine), detailing the relationship of resveratrol to analogues such as pterostilbene, piceid and the viniferins (resveratrol oligomers). The discussion then turns to the hundreds of reports linking resveratrol and related grape vine polyphenols to various beneficial health effects especially cardio- and cerebro- vascular, metabolic, anti-inflammatory and more. Also addressed are the numerous intracellular mechanisms that have been shown to mediate the effects of these compounds in mammalian cells and tissues. Finally, the authors discuss aspects of polyphenol bioavailability and how this will influence choices taken for delivering these compounds as nutritional supplements. A brief chapter containing general conclusions and prospectus rounds out the information.
