    Reading for Recovery (R4R): Bibliotherapy for addictions

    No full text
    The Rutgers Center of Alcohol Studies received a Carnegie-Whitney grant from the American Library Association to build a tool with the purpose of facilitating library resources for creative and informal bibliotherapy. This paper complements the authors’ presentation and workshop at the 2016 conference, where they experimented with a novel interactive format of sharing knowledge to inspire substance abuse librarians to promote bibliotherapy as a potential treatment modality. The two-year project has made a lot of progress to date, such as formulating selection criteria, determining target audiences and choosing the appropriate platforms, designing a vetting process, and compiling a preliminary bibliography. The paper also summarizes a mock bibliotherapy session drawing upon evidence-based practices as the second part of the presentation. Participants read a short text and were encouraged to analyze it based on prefabricated questions and talking points similar to a book club discussion. The authors have benefited tremendously from the conference by building on the collective expertise of the SALIS members.Peer reviewe

    Reintroducing Bunky at 125: E.M. Jellinek’s life and contributions to Alcohol Studies

    No full text
    Objective: Elvin Morton Jellinek (1890–1963) was one of the founders of modern addiction science. This overview is a brief survey of his life and achievements, intended to re-introduce alcohol scholars to his contributions (and possible failings) as well as stimulate interest and historical research in the field. Method: The article draws largely from the archival collection of the Rutgers Center of Alcohol Studies (CAS) Library and the Jellinek memorial issue of the CAS Information Services Newsletter. Scholarly works and personal and institutional records by or about E. M. Jellinek were assembled and, when necessary, translated into English. Results: Born in 1890 in New York and raised in Hungary, Jellinek studied at several European universities and worked for various institutions and organizations in Budapest (1914–1920), Sierra Leone, Honduras, and at the Worcester State Hospital, in Massachusetts. In 1941 he became an associate professor of applied physiology at Yale University, where he directed the Yale Summer School of Alcohol Studies from 1941 to 1950. After more than a decade of work with the World Health Organization and several Canadian institutions, he taught and conducted research at the Institute for the Study of Human Problems at Stanford University until his death in 1963. Jellinek was a pioneer in research on the nature and causes of alcoholism and was an early proponent of the disease theory of alcoholism. Conclusions: With the help of E. M. Jellinek, the modern era of addiction science was launched with an international outlook that included critical attention to the physical infrastructure and intellectual capital needed to form an interdisciplinary field of basic research, applied science, and clinical practice.Peer reviewe

    Bounds and Conditions: A Kolob in Our Solar System?

    No full text
    In 2003, Dialogue ran adjacent essays by two scientists, David Tolman and David Allred. The two Davids had been students together at Princeton, attending the same student ward. Decades after Princeton, Tolman had left Mormonism and Allred had stayed. Their essays are a fascinating juxtaposition. In the course of his piece, David Allred ventured for a few paragraphs into a discussion of the planet Jupiter and its role as a governor and protector in our solar system—a type of Kolob. Although the other author dismissed the topic as “fanciful physics,” my own interest was piqued. I asked Dr. Allred, who is now a professor of physics and astronomy at BYU, how he’d feel about fleshing out those paragraphs into a full column. He accepted the invitation and produced the following essay. It’s a fascinating piece that demonstrates how the gospel can illuminate the heavens and the heavens can illuminate back

    • 89 Kevin Allred -Some carbonate erosion rates of southeast

    Southeastern Alaska, also known as the Panhandle, contains one of the few temperate rain forests in the world. Annual precipitation in the areas of this study average 1752 mm on Chichagof Island and over 2540 mm on Prince of Wales Island. The extent of karst development is still unknown, because some regions have been poorly mapped geologically or not at all. Exploration and inventory of the caves and karst topography of the Alaska Panhandle has intensified since 1988. This study was inspired, in part, by use of the more precise Micro-Erosion Meter (MEM) by METHODS AND PROVISIONS The Rock Erosion Meter (REM) was designed by the author to measure the lowering of rock surfaces adjacent to 7.94 mm × 38.10 mm (5/16 inch by 1 1/2 inches) stainless steel bolts that were epoxied into drilled holes in the bedrock SOME CARBONATE EROSION RATE

    Detective Fiction: The story within the story

    No full text
    Deanna Allred Detective Fiction Abstract In Sir Arthur Conan Doyle\u27s small story, How Watson Learned the Trick, Watson tries to size up Holmes\u27 situation one morning by using the same methods of deduction that Sherlock uses on others. Watson turns out to be wrong on all accounts and Holmes sets him straight. The trick, as the title implies, has Doyle as omniscient author, giving Holmes all the answers. While there may be many possible ways to assess the clues that Holmes finds in his adventures, the fact remains that Doyle creates the story. There can only be one end and Holmes will always be right about his deductions. Watson and audience usually have all the information, but it is only Holmes that is able to deduce the right answer. Watson and reader are made to stand aside, smack our foreheads and marvel at the reasoning skills of Sherlock. The way Sherlock combines and assesses the clues is always the right way because that is how Doyle plans the stories. Equifinality means there are many possible ways to an end and Doyle creates an illusion that there is only one way to assess the clues Sherlock finds. There is no equifinality in the world of Sherlock Holmes. In How Watson Learned the Trick , we are reminded again, that Holmes skills are oracular. It is ironic How Watson Learned the Trick is housed in a dollhouse. A dollhouse is a representation of reality. Doyle\u27s story is an imitation, even a parody, of reality. We, as readers, want desperately to buy into the reality, but it is just a façade. This small book, placed in a small library in a dollhouse, is a story within a story. It\u27s all fantasy, just as the deductive reasoning skills of Sherlock Holmes are fantasy
