    Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis

    Full text link
    The present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed

    Handshakes and Heartaches: Who Owns the Oil After Rogers v. Ricane

    Full text link
    The Supreme Court of Texas recently denied rehearing Rogers v. Ricane Enterprises, Inc., thereby reaffirming their restriction of the Davis doctrine, a 70-year-old principle that allowed a mineral lease to terminate when the operator completely abandoned the purpose of the mineral lease. Although the Davis doctrine itself is a narrow rule of Texas oil and gas law, and rarely applied today, the questions raised in Rogers v. Ricane expose the tenuous foundation of oil and gas law built in large measure on handshake deals3 and good will. The law of oil and gas is based on the uncomfortable marriage of contract and property law. Rogers v. Ricane illustrates the confusion that can arise when a court applies these principles. This comment examines the difficulty Texas courts have intrepreting oil and gas partial assignments, which they may do by looking at the writing itself against the backdrop of common industry practice. First, the article reviews Texas law in this area and then looks at the Rogers v. Ricane Enterprises, Inc. decisions

    Setting the Standards for Medical Negligence: The 'Bolam' test post 'Rogers v Whitaker'

    No full text
    The High Court, in 'Rogers v Whitaker', rejected the 'Bolam' test of medical negligence, at least with respect to the giving of information and obtaining consent to medical treatment. This decision caused concern among the medical profession who felt that they were now to be judged by lawyers rather than their medical peers. The "Retrospectoscope" was to be turned upon them by people with no experience of their profession. In this paper I will look at the judgment in 'Rogers v Whitaker' and consider some cases that have had to consider how the standard of care in medical negligence cases is to be determined

    Variations on the Author

    Full text link
    “Variations on the Author” discusses two of Eduardo Coutinho’s recent films (Um Dia na Vida, from 2010, and Últimas Conversas, posthumously released in 2015) and their contribution to the general question of documentary authorship. The director’s filmography is characterized by a consistent yet self-effacing form of authorial self-inscription: Coutinho often features as an interviewer that rather than express opinions propels discourses; an interviewer that is good at listening. This mode of self-inscription characterizes him as an author who is not expressive but who is nonetheless markedly present on the screen. In Um Dia na Vida, however, Coutinho is completely absent form the image, while Últimas Conversas, on the contrary, includes a confessional prologue that moves the director from the margins to the center of his films. This article examines the ways in which these works stand out in the filmography of a director who offers new insights into the notion of cinematic authorship
