Numerical Cognition describes the processes that one uses to assimilate, ascribe andmanipulate numerical information. This chapter is organised into two sections. The firstdraws heavily on data from Developmental and Experimental Psychology. We use this tooutline core findings related to processing numerical information in humans. In particular, wedescribe the trajectory of the acquisition of basic numerical skills. Starting in early infancy,we outline the processes that are believed to underlie non-symbolic representation. Next, wesummarise core studies that examine the representation of symbolic quantities (Arabicsystem). Lastly, we briefly report the relationship between basic numerical processing andmathematical achievement. The second part of the chapter explores evidence fromNeuropsychology and Neuroscience. The core methodological approaches used are brieflyoutlined with sign-posting to relevant literature. Next, we examine data from early lesionstudies, followed by a short review of one of the most influential models in the study ofNumerical Cognition, the Triple Code Model. Lastly, we look at the neurocognitive featuresof number, such as different modes of representation and the processing of quantity.Throughout, the core literature plus recent advances are summarised, giving the reader athorough grounding in the Neurocognitive Bases of Numerical Cognition.This preprint outlines a forthcoming chapter on the subject of ‘Numerical Cognition’ for inclusion in the forthcoming work tentatively entitled Stevens' Handbook of Experimental Psychology, Fourth Edition, Volume Three: Language & Thought (the “Work”), authored/edited by Sharon L. Thompson-Schill, due to be published by JOHN WILEY and SONS in 2017

This chapter is a review of the relevant literature on effecting changes in attitudes and behaviors toward people with disabilities. It begins with a discussion of the goals of the book and the activities in the book. There is discussion of the relationship between attitudes and behaviors, and whether a change in one is followed by a change in the other. The core research about the bases of attitudes toward disability and attitude change is reviewed. The move in the past few decades from attention to implicit bias to focus on explicit bias is highlighted. The rationale for not using simulation exercises is provided, as well as the social underpinnings of the activities.

Historical Origins

Titles in the Core Text series take the reader straight to the heart of the subject, providing focused, concise, and reliable guides for students at all levels. This chapter traces the historical roots of the trust. The law of trusts is the offspring of a certain English legal creature known as ‘equity’. Equity arose out of the administrative power of the medieval Chancellor, who was at the time the King’s most powerful minister. The nature of equity’s jurisdiction and its ability to provide remedies unavailable at common law, the relationship between equity and the common law and the ‘fusion’ of law and equity, and equity’s creation of the use, and then the trust, are discussed.

Titles in the Core Text series take the reader straight to the heart of the subject, providing focused, concise, and reliable guides for students at all levels. This chapter introduces a number of concepts that are fundamental to an understanding of the contemporary law of land in England and Wales. It discusses: definition of ‘land’ as physical reality; the notion of abstract ‘estates’ in land as the medium of ownership; the relationship between law and equity; the meaning of ‘property’ in land; the impact of human rights on property concepts; the ambivalence of common law perspectives on ‘land’; the statutory organisation of proprietary rights in land; and the underlying policy motivations that drive the contemporary law of land.

Materialist Dialectic

This article examines the relationship between materialism, dialectics, and theology in Alain Badiou's work. The first three sections of the article focus on Badiou's reading of Hegelian dialectics in his 1982 work, Theory of the Subject. The first section accounts for Badiou's splitting of Hegel into an idealist and materialist dialectic, and presents an exposition of the latter. The second section outlines Badiou's critical analysis of the theological model implicit in Hegel's dialectics. The third section investigates the core of this criticism through a discussion of Badiou's reading of the “negation of the negation.” The remaining four sections examine the anti-dialectical interpretation of the Christ-event that Badiou presents in his book Saint Paul. Here the article illustrates how Badiou's insistence on separating the death of Christ from the resurrection is linked to his rejection of the doctrines of Trinity and Incarnation, and how this drives Badiou towards idealism.

For organizations, communication is one of the most critical factors affecting their continuity, goals, and success levels. Organizational communication directs the relationship between internal and external stakeholders of the organization by taking a role in all organizational action and managerial processes. In this context, it also affects organizational outcomes. Effectively and efficiently channelling intra-organizational communication for organizational success is also effective in employees' understanding of their duties and responsibilities within the organization and activating their knowledge skills and abilities in line with the organisation's goals. At this point, it can be said that organizational communication adds mobility to businesses through self-expression. From this perspective, it understands the communication subject's development processes that play a crucial role for organizations in the literature and revealing its relationship with other variables will bring a systematic and holistic perspective to the relevant literature. With the bibliometric analysis method made for this purpose, it is aimed to create a perspective on how organizational communication offers mobility to businesses, the development, quality and quantity of the process.

The Way

The question of truth stands at the core of Foucault's philosophy. He was interested in how different pieces of knowledge had attained truth status over the course of history, how power had legitimated itself through truth, how people had shaped themselves via producing truth. The multivolume History of Sexuality, conceived in the 1970s, was originally intended as a study of the relationship between sex and truth. This project that spread over almost ten years constituted Foucault's main laboratory of the history of truth, where he could test new concepts, ideas, and materials. The project went through a very important transformation in time: while in 1970s, Foucault was primarily interested in the relations between truth, sex and power, in the 1980s he mainly studies the relations between truth, sex and the subject. Looking back at the evolution of his thought in the second volume of his History of Sexuality, Foucault admits to realising that all of his work has in fact been dealing with the history of truth: “I seem to have gained a better perspective on the way I worked – gropingly, and by means of different or successive fragments – on this project, whose goal is a history of truth.”

The Way

In the first part I focus on the issue of progress, in particular progress in philosophy. Philosophical progress has a special property that it shares with the process of becoming a better person. It is constantly finding yourself “on the way”. This path is not only anchored in the Absolutely Perfect but it conditions and stimulates the reflection towards the truth about the relationship between Him and us. We can assume that the core of this reflection is philosophy. The second part is devoted to the paradoxical nature of the most generally understood memory. I assume that the condition of awareness of a certain content is its outdatedness, that is, its transfer to the sphere of memory. Memory is a constantly updated and constantly re-ordered picture of everything that the subject has ever relegated from being, so that it can be replaced by something else. The foundation of this order is a certain axiology. In the third part I show how the sketched concept of memory is used to describe the mechanism of the evolution of philosophical thought. The “on the way” philosophy would consist of two constantly repeated activities: on reconstructing what is to be denied, and thus on the recognition of the previous philosophical achievements in its totality, and on its negation. This denial would concern the whole of this achievement as an axiologically reconstructed unity. The new system is only realized as a series of consequences of the negation of the current state. The vast majority of philosophical reflection focuses on the constitution of this current state, its supposed unity. In the short part of the fourth, I draw up prospects for further deliberations.

As the NCTM was publishing its 1972 yearbook. The Slow Learner in Mathematics, teachers at Glenbrook South High School, Glenview. Illinois, were engaged in the design of a curriculum for slow learners in all major academic subjects. After a study of relevant literature, the teachers determined that their efforts should be interdisciplinary. The Core Learning Project (CORE) reflects this decision. Two freshmen courses were prepared—Communication Arts (English, Social Studies, Art and Music) and MATHSCI 153 (Mathematics and Science). The subject integration was continued at the sophomore level with American Studies and MATHSCI 253.

Human Neuroimaging

The cognitive and neural mechanisms that enable humans to encode and manipulate numerical information have been subject to an increasing number of experimental studies over the past 25 years or so. Here, I highlight recent findings about how numerical information is neurally coded, focusing on the theoretical implications derived from the most influential theoretical framework in numerical cognition—the Triple Code Model. At the core of this model is the assumption that bilateral parietal cortex hosts an approximate number system that codes for the cardinal value of perceived numerals. I will review studies that ask whether or not the numerical coding within this system is invariant to varying input notation, format, or modality, and whether or not the observed parietal activity is number-specific over and above the parietal involvement in response-related processes. Extant computational models of numerosity (the number of objects in a set) perception are summarized and related to empirical data from human neuroimaging and monkey neurophysiology.
