This editorial asserts that caring and nursing are not synonymous and that all practitioners of the helping and healing profession, with their humanness and disciplinary training, are experts in human and professional caring. Their distinctive disciplinary perspective on caring reflects the notion that our understanding of caring is always imperfect, and its concept is continuously co-evolving with humanity. No discipline or profession owns the restrictive privilege of caring knowledge or the sole expertise in caring expression, not even nursing

AbstractThe concept of anormis found widely across fields including artificial intelligence, biology, computer security, cultural studies, economics, law, organizational behaviour and psychology. The concept is studied with different terminology and perspectives, including individual, social, legal and philosophical. If a norm is an expected behaviour in a social setting, then this article considers how it can be determined whether an individual is adhering to this expected behaviour. We call this processmonitoring, and again it is a concept known with different terminology in different fields. Monitoring of norms is foundational for processes of accountability, enforcement, regulation and sanctioning. Starting with a broad focus and narrowing to the multi-agent systems literature, this survey addresses four key questions: what is monitoring, what is monitored, who does the monitoring and how the monitoring is accomplished.

In Near Edge X-ray Absorption Fine Structure (NEXAFS) microscopy, excitations of core electrons into unoccupied molecular orbitals or electronic states provide sensitivity to a wide variety of chemical functionalities in molecules and solids. This sensitivity complements infrared (IR) spectroscopy, although the NEXAFS spectra are not quite as specific and “rich” as IR spectra. The sensitivity of NEXAFS to distinguish chemical bonds and electronic structures covers a wide variety of samples: from metals to inorganics and organics. (There is a tendency in the community to use the term NEXAFS for soft x-ray spectroscopy of organic materials, while for inorganic materials or at higher energies X-ray Absorption Near Edge Spectroscopy (XANES) is utilized, even though the fundamental physics is the same.) The sensitivity of NEXAFS is particularly high to distinguish saturated from unsaturated bonds. NEXAFS can also detect conjugation in a molecule, as well as chemical shifts due to heteroatoms.

From a wider disciplinary perspective, modern conflict archaeology is now a thoroughly established and mature sub-discipline. However, a significant problem conflict archaeologists in the Netherlands face is that modern eras, including both World Wars, have so far not received serious attention. Although both World Wars appeal strongly to the popular imagination, until recently Dutch researchers had not approached modern conflict from an academic archaeological perspective to any great extent. This is partly the result of problematic legislation on archaeological activity in the Netherlands. When applied and interpreted appropriately, archaeology can play an important role in the preservation, contemporary experience and historical reconstruction of recent conflicts. However, as this book argues, research methods other than excavations will be needed in order to conduct conflict archaeology in the Netherlands effectively. This study aims to develop a Dutch approach to conflict archaeology, integrating archaeology, heritage research and history at a landscape scale.

Conspiracy theories spread more widely and faster than ever before. Fear and uncertainty prompt people to believe false narratives of danger and hidden plots, but are not sufficient without considering the role and ideological bias of the media. This timely book focuses on making sense of how and why some people respond to their fear of a threat by creating or believing conspiracy stories. It integrates insights from psychology, political science, communication, and information sciences to provide a complete overview and theory of how conspiracy beliefs manifest. Through this multi-disciplinary perspective, rigoros research develops and tests a practical, simple way to frame and understand conspiracy theories. The book supplies unprecedented amounts of new data from six empirical studies and unpicks the complexity of the process that leads to the empowerment of conspiracy beliefs.
