The Ethics of Gender-Specific Disease

The Ethics of Gender-Specific Disease

Our understanding of gender carries significant bioethical implications. An errant account of gender-specific disease can lead to overgeneralizations undergeneralizations and misdiagnoses. It can also lead to problems in the structure of health-care delivery the creation of policy and the development of clinical curricula. In this volume Cutter argues that gender-specific disease and related bioethical discourses are philosophically integrative. Gender-specific disease is integrative because the descriptive roles of gender disease and their relation are inextricably tied to their prescriptive roles within frames of reference. An integrative account of gender-specific disease carries ethical implications because our understanding of gender-specific disease is evaluative and our evaluations of gender-specific disease entail judgments concerning the praiseworthiness and blameworthiness of a clinical event. Cutter supports a both/and emphasis on context and integration in relation to gender-specific disease and bioethical analyses. While the text mainly focuses on gender-specific diseases that affect women Cutter also includes examples involving men children and members of the LGBT community. | The Ethics of Gender-Specific Disease

Full Circle A Memoir

Full Circle A Memoir

This is a personal history of the twentieth century as seen through the eyes of Edith Kurzweil author teacher editor of Partisan Review and a recent recipient of the National Medal of Humanities. The book opens with Kurzweil early adolescence in Vienna during the Nazi takeover. It ends with the author finding herself in the new century. In between she kept moving on and interrogating the world around her. The reader follows Kurzweil on her perilous journey at the age of fourteen to Belgium through France Spain and Portugal alone with her younger brother. Her fantasies of reunion with her parents in New York kept her going but came to naught: she had not expected to fall from a wealthy childhood into the life of the working-class poor as a millinery apprentice or a diamond cutter. Instead of entering college life she eventually became a conventional American housewife. Unhappy and anxious she anticipated the social changes in America and returned to Europe with her second husband and her two children. She arrived at the beginning of the Italian miracle-its post-war revitalization. In Milan she met many Americans as an active member of its community and of the British-American club. After personal tragedy she returned to New York and only then pursued her early intellectual ambitions. The author eventually became a professor of sociology and quickly climbed up the academic ladder. Just as she had been as a little girl she still wanted to know everything beginning with her study of Italian entrepreneurs and going on to European history and French thought to psychoanalysis and anti-Semitism. Her early writings prompted William Phillips co-founder and editor of Partisan Review to invite her into the elite circle of New York intellectuals. She worked alongside him first as a reader then as executive editor and took over the editorship of the legendary journal during its final period. Kurzweil's journey was one of courage and of emotional and intellectual growth. Full Circle will be of interest to intellectual and cultural historians literary and Holocaust scholars and American studies specialists. | Full Circle A Memoir

Virtual Machining Using CAMWorks 2021 CAMWorks as a SOLIDWORKS Module

Virtual Machining Using CAMWorks 2021 CAMWorks as a SOLIDWORKS Module

This book is written to help you learn the core concepts and steps used to conduct virtual machining using CAMWorks. CAMWorks is a virtual machining tool designed to increase your productivity and efficiency by simulating machining operations on a computer before creating a physical product. CAMWorks is embedded in SOLIDWORKS as a fully integrated module. CAMWorks provides excellent capabilities for machining simulations in a virtual environment. Capabilities in CAMWorks allow you to select CNC machines and tools extract or create machinable features define machining operations and simulate and visualize machining toolpaths. In addition the machining time estimated in CAMWorks provides an important piece of information for estimating product manufacturing cost without physically manufacturing the product. The book covers the basic concepts and frequently used commands and options you’ll need to know to advance from a novice to an intermediate level CAMWorks user. Basic concepts and commands introduced include extracting machinable features (such as 2. 5 axis features) selecting machine and tools defining machining parameters (such as feed rate) generating and simulating toolpaths and post processing CL data to output G-codes for support of CNC machining. The concepts and commands are introduced in a tutorial style presentation using simple but realistic examples. Both milling and turning operations are included. One of the unique features of this book is the incorporation of the CL (cutter location) data verification by reviewing the G-codes generated from the toolpaths. This helps you understand how the G-codes are generated by using the respective post processors which is an important step and an ultimate way to confirm that the toolpaths and G-codes generated are accurate and useful. This book is intentionally kept simple. It primarily serves the purpose of helping you become familiar with CAMWorks in conducting virtual machining for practical applications. This is not a reference manual of CAMWorks. You may not find everything you need in this book for learning CAMWorks. But this book provides you with basic concepts and steps in using the software as well as discussions on the G-codes generated. After going over this book you will develop a clear understanding in using CAMWorks for virtual machining simulations and should be able to apply the knowledge and skills acquired to carry out machining assignments and bring machining consideration into product design in general. | Virtual Machining Using CAMWorks 2021 CAMWorks as a SOLIDWORKS Module

Who this book is for This book should serve well for self-learners. A self-learner should have a basic physics and mathematics background. We assume that you are familiar with basic manufacturing processes especially milling and turning. In addition we assume you are familiar with G-codes. A self-learner should be able to complete the ten lessons of this book in about forty hours. This book also serves well for class instructions. Most likely it will be used as a supplemental reference for courses like CNC Machining Design and Manufacturing Computer-Aided Manufacturing or Computer-Integrated Manufacturing. This book should cover four to five weeks of class instructions depending on the course arrangement and the technical background of the students. What is virtual machining? Virtual machining is the use of simulation-based technology in particular computer-aided manufacturing (CAM) software to aid engineers in defining simulating and visualizing machining operations for parts or assembly in a computer or virtual environment. By using virtual machining the machining process can be defined and verified early in the product design stage. Some if not all of the less desirable design features in the context of part manufacturing such as deep pockets holes or fillets of different sizes or cutting on multiple sides can be detected and addressed while the product design is still being finalized. In addition machining-related problems such as undesirable surface finish surface gouging and tool or tool holder colliding with stock or fixtures can be identified and eliminated before mounting a stock on a CNC machine at shop floor. In addition manufacturing cost which constitutes a significant portion of the product cost can be estimated using the machining time estimated in the virtual machining simulation. Virtual machining allows engineers to conduct machining process planning generate machining toolpaths visualize and simulate machining operations and estimate machining time. Moreover the toolpaths generated can be converted into NC codes to machine functional parts as well as die or mold for part production. In most cases the toolpath is generated in a so-called CL data format and then converted to G-codes using respective post processors. | Virtual Machining Using CAMWorks 2023 CAMWorks as a SOLIDWORKS Module
