Osler's Web by Hillary Johnson (1996, Hardcover)

“A relentless, meticulous, and highly persuasive exposé by a journalist who spent nine years investigating the medical research establishment’s failure to take seriously chronic fatigue syndrome… In a chronology that runs from 1984 to 1994, Johnson crams in fact after telling fact, building up a dismaying picture of a rigid and haughty biomedical research establishment unwilling or unable to respond to the challenge of a multifaceted disease for which a causative agent has yet to be found… A compelling, well-documented account…” —Kirkus Reviews

Written for students and researchers already familiar with the basics of Web-page construction, uploading, and maintenance at the level presented in, for example, Fraley's How to Conduct Behavioral Research Over the Internet: A Beginner's Guide to HTML and CGI/Perl (2004), Gosling (psychology, U. of Texas) and Johnson (psychology, Pennsylvania State U.) have aimed this book one level above the Fraley text, for those who want more information on more specific topics and on new methods of online behavioral research (such as text analysis) They present 16 self-contained tutorial chapters, organized into sections providing an overview of major techniques; discussing considerations when designing Web pages; describing methods for studying Internet behavior; describing how to transport traditional methodologies to the Web; and examining cross-cutting issues such as the use of incentives, ethical issues, and security and data protection.

Upwardly mobile Christians facing radically diverse ethnic, religious, economic and social conditions. The church divided over issues of leadership and authority, sexual morality, gender and worship, marriage and divorce. Sound familiar? First-century Corinth and its challenges were not so different from our own. Yet in the midst of this detailed, practical letter to a church in crisis is found one of the greatest paeans to love ever written. And, of course, love is just what is needed to address these complex human issues whether in the first century or the twenty-first.

These papers were presented at the November 2002 ASTM symposium on Probabilistic Aspects of Life Prediction. Grouped into sections on probabilistic modeling, material variability, and application, the papers assess the state-of-the-art in incorporating uncertainties and inherent scatter into systematic probabilistic methods for conducting life assessment. Specific topics include modeling variability in service loading spectra; mechanism-based variability in fatigue life of Ti-6A1-2Sn-4Zr-6Mo; preliminary results of the US nuclear regulatory commission pressurized thermal shock rule reevaluation project; and the effect of individual component life distribution on engine life prediction.
