The only physicians the author interviews in his book involve the topic of genetic doping. How could you write a book on steroids and not interview Harrison Pope, M.D. from Harvard, the leading expert on anabolic steroids? Jendrick dismisses the medical consequences of steroid use, blaming the media for sensationalizing and spreading misinformation about steroids. While I agree that the media uses scare tactics to alarm the public and grab more ratings, his claim that 99% of testicular shrinkage returns to previous size after discontinuation of steroids is more irresponsible.
Jill Quadango takes notice of this and reiterates that the United States is the only western industrialized nation that has been slow to develop universal coverage for its constituents for many reasons. According to one of the many theories Quadagno poses, national public healthcare assumes the power of the state must be limited. This suggests an anti-state perspective upon the issue yet neglects the political policymaking processes. Quadago suggests that scholars who argue in favor of the antistatist ideology are vague about the processes which influence policy making. More government, according to this value theory equates to limited liberties of the public which is further explicated in continuing theories of the stakeholder mobilization efforts.
MDMA should be reviewed and rescheduled due to the fact that the initial scheduling reports were flawed, there are vast medical uses for MDMA in treating patients who have shown no improvements with other psychological treatments, and there is a very low possibility of death amongst users of unadulterated MDMA. Why must we withhold a drug that can be so very useful for the treatment of extreme mental conditions and possibly cure thousands of Americans of their
The result of the 1945 election was a shock to not only the people of Britain but also the parliamentary parties, one of the main reasons thought to have led to Labour’s victory, was Churchill’s radio broadcast, in which he stated socialism could not be established without a ‘Gestapo’. Source one, an extract from Margaret Thatcher’s book, explains her thoughts when listening to Churchill’s 1945 radio broadcast. Thatcher believes Churchill said was correct in what he said, but his use of the word ‘Gestapo’ was inappropriate, and wasn’t particularly helpful for post-war Britain. However it could be argued Thatcher knew that what Churchill said was a mistake, but as she was part of the same conservative party as he was, she couldn’t admit it. Although, she does admit even she was shocked when listening to the speech, as she explains “the line was not believable”.
The source is from a modern book named ‘Britain and Ireland, from Home Rule to Independence’ and so you could argue the source is to be given some validity however given that it is a modern text you could question some of the information it presents as it is not a primary source of information. The source suggests that Asquith’s policy and attitude was not proactive enough, therefore criticising his methods. The source states that this as well as his ‘blunder’ of including Ulster in the Home Rule Bill of 1912, which subsequently caused the first and immediate threat of Civil War in Ireland was just some of the error. This source therefore supports this view to a great extent because of this evidence. Source 8 does not support this view, however the only evidence supporting it being that tensions between Nationalists and Unionists was high and that because of their differences Ireland was preparing for a Civil War, as suggested by source 7.
Amin Zoud Anthropology 4311 – Medical Anthropology Dr. Margaret A. Graham January 30th, 2012 Critical Summary: Why Genes Don’t Count (for Racial Differences in Health) – MAR #5 In the article, “Why Genes Don’t Count (for Racial Differences in Health), the author Alan Goodman explains how using the term “race”, when clarifying biological similarities and differences, is inadequate. It depicts race as non-useful biological concept since there is no clear distinction between racial groups. “Race” was created culturally to explain biological variation in humans, but inevitably are just factors of racism and racialization. The article explains that since there is more variation in genetics within groups than between groups, that it is wrong to attribute health inequalities to genes. The profound message throughout this section is that race is not a scientifically effective biological category, and yet it remains as a socially constructed category.
In the context of his hierarchy an individual without the fulfilment of the self-esteem need, won't be able to progress and obtain self-actualization. Criticism: This relatively early psychological theory of human needs and motivation has received a lot of criticism over the last five decades. The hierarchy itself is questioned as well as the concept of self esteem as a result of an internal self evaluation. The theory in the tradition of “Humanistic psychology” is also questioned as being too subjective and that it is therefore difficult to apply to objectively measure humanistic phenomena. Maslows studies are based on individual people like Albert Einstein or Eleanor Roosevelt.
I learned that there is a shocking number of children that are homeless and do not have an income or even food as a guarantee and this is right here in America. I consider this information reliable but not to the extent of my first because there are some strong opinions on this topic which makes it harder for this one topic to be seen as 100% reliable on a factual standpoint. I believe the goal of this source is to inform its reader of the more unusual facts about homelessness and show the true statistics and make people realize it isn’t as uncommon as people may think it is. I chose this source because it covers my must know which stated that homelessness is not subject to just adults but rather children and quite a few of them for that
(News-Item) In a poll, that has been taken by Public Agenda on the subject of drug testing for welfare recipients show that 68% said yes, 27% said no and 5% not sure. Even, though, there are some people that are out raged and call this unconstitutional for an example Kimberley Davis, Director of Social Services for Operation Breakthrough, said this sends a damaging message. "All this does is perpetuating the stereotype that low-income people are lazy, and if all they did was pick themselves up from the bootstraps then the country would not be in the mess it is in.” (Service)That is not true it is that tax payers work hard for their money. It should be certain that the money going to help the needy not support drug
If that happened in the US, the policies would not work to the advantage of the State for a number of reasons: the USA is not suffering from overpopulation, strategies to control the population have failed in a number of countries which have tried to impose it, and using birth control or abortion is unethical. This essay will discuss issue of population control and explain why the U.S. government should not limit the number of children a family should have. The total fertility rate (defined as the total number of children a woman is likely to have during her lifetime) in the USA in the last decade has been decreasing (Newman, B. & Newman, P., 2008). As many women concentrate on their educational goals and careers rather than on marriage and children, the growth rate of the American population has slowed significantly.
