Western medicine—especially in contrast with non-Western traditions of medical practice—is widely thought of as a coherent and unified field in which beliefs, definitions, and judgments are shared. Marc Berg and Annemarie Mol debunk this myth with an interdisciplinary and intercultural collection of essays that reveals the significantly varied ways practitioners of “conventional” Western medicine handle bodies, study test results, configure statistics, and converse with patients .Combining theoretical work with interviews and direct observation of the activities and interactions of doctors, nurses, technicians, and patients, the contributors to this volume provide comparative studies of specific cases. Individual chapters explore topics such as the contested domain of fetal surgery in a California hospital, the construction of gender identity before transsexual surgery in Germany, and differences in the treatment and definition of pain by two clinics in France. Differences in Medicine advances earlier studies on medicine’s social diversity and regional variations to expose significant differences in the presumptions and decisions that affect patients’ lives, and marks a dramatic development in both the study of medicine and in science studies generally. Revealing the ways in which the bodies and lives of people are constructed as medical objects by practitioners, technologies, and textbooks, this collection calls for and initiates new, more textured investigations and theories of the body in medicine and the practice of science. It will open new discussions among medical and healthcare professionals as well as scholars in medical anthropology, science studies, sociology, philosophy, and the history of medicine.Contributors.

An invaluable text in language and linguistics because it has a unique scope: a one-volume description of the Spanish language and its differences from English, and ranges from pronunciation and grammar to word meaning, language use, and social and dialectical variation. Designed for survey courses in Spanish linguistics with technical concepts explained in context for beginners in the field, Spanish/English Contrasts brings out the ways in which insights into the two languages have evolved as scholars have built on the work and research of others in the field. A bilingual glossary of linguistic terms is provided to facilitate discussion in either language.This second edition is thoroughly updated to incorporate insights and issues that have come to the fore from the explosion of research in the past twenty-five years in all of the areas covered by the book. It includes an expanded bibliography and index, and adds new exercises for student application and class discussion. Its approach remains broadly based however, in order to accommodate a range of areas and data rather than focusing narrowly on one single theory or research area, and it continues to emphasize implications for language teaching, translation, and other practical applications.

While designed for universal application, this 2" Variable Polarizing Filter features a 2" filter thread, making it an essential tool for photographers and astronomers alike. The filter allows for continuous adjustment of image brightness, a feature that proves invaluable when dealing with strong contrast differences in various observation objects. This variable polarizing filter is particularly effective during lunar and planetary observation, as well as solar observation, where it prevents the blooming of the finest details. However, it's important to note that solar observation should only be conducted in conjunction with a suitable sun protection filter. The filter's versatility shines when used with a Herschel wedge or large lens openings, as it can reduce the brightness of the objects to be observed to a comfortable level. With a wide control range of 40% to 1% light transmission and a neutral gray filter effect, it delivers a pleasant and unadulterated image. Operating this 2" Variable Polarizing Filter is straightforward. By simply turning the two halves of the housing, you can set the desired strength of the filter effect. The filter also features a two-sided 2" filter thread (inside/outside), allowing for the simultaneous use of other color filters. This feature enhances its functionality, making it a valuable addition to any photography or astronomy equipment collection.
