Creative Arts in Social Work Education
Authors: Power Lori 
Published: February 2024

Abstract
This chapter offers theory and examples of “four good ideas” that contribute to developing a classroom environment for art-based social work education. These ideas are historically contextualized, and examples of their applications highlight how they have been used by educators, activists, and organizers over time to amplify social justice and advocacy. It is observed in the chapter that using the expressive arts in teaching assists students to think critically and reflexively and enhances affective learning skills commensurate with the values of the social work profession. The chapter describes four specific domains of arts-based activities for the classroom: kinesthetic movement/dance, theater, music, and writing. Each of these is illustrated for the reader at micro, mezzo, and macro levels of practice. This chapter offers insight for those new to the arts in social work and affirms the work of those already engaged in innovative ways that students can extend into their professional careers.
Introduction
Authors: McQueen Paddy 
Published: February 2024

Abstract
This chapter explains the value of examining the nature of regret and the role that it plays in decision-making. It outlines the focus and structure of the book, along with the main issues and arguments that it covers. These are wide-ranging, including debates about the nature of reasons and justification, their relationship with time, and how beliefs about the self and the world influence our understanding of regret. It also highlights some of the ways that people’s experiences of regret are shaped by social discourses, especially those about gender and motherhood, and how these discourses impact people’s decision-making and agency.
On the “Fittingness” of Regret
Authors: McQueen Paddy 
Published: February 2024

Abstract
This chapter sets out what it means for regret to be “fitting”, that is, an appropriate emotion to feel, given the situation. Following D’Arms and Jacobson, it asserts that this is a matter of whether the situation “warrants” or “calls for” regret, rather than, for example, whether experiencing regret is morally praiseworthy or blameworthy. It argues that regret is only fitting when one has made a mistake. Contrary to what a lot of philosophers have said, this means that it is only fitting to regret something one did, which one intended to do. It then discusses how intense the feeling of regret should be. This, it is claimed, is determined by how much one cares about the mistake one made: the more one cares about it, the more intense one’s regret should be.
Trans Regret
Authors: McQueen Paddy 
Published: February 2024

Abstract
This chapter provides a critical assessment of concerns about trans regret (i.e., people who regret transitioning) and arguments against gender confirmation treatment. It shows that the worry that many people regret transitioning is unfounded. Research shows that few people regret transitioning and it is argued that people ought to be allowed to make decisions that they may regret. Furthermore, it is shown that it cannot be known, or even reliably predicted, whether someone might regret transitioning, because the process of transitioning is a transformative experience. How a person will feel about transitioning, and thus whether they might regret it, cannot be known until they have transitioned. Thus, regret should not be a part of medical decision-making about gender confirmation treatment. The chapter concludes by showing how the concepts of authenticity and gender performativity structure the way that trans regret is understood and whether understands it to be problematic.
Introduction
Authors: Freeman Lauren , Stewart Heather 
Published: February 2024

Abstract
Microaggressions are prevalent in medicine, yet often go unnoticed by those who commit them. This chapter outlines the main problem with which the book engages: that there are subtle things that healthcare professionals commonly say and do to patients that don’t register as serious, yet that cause major harms to patients. To set the stage to unpack this problem, this chapter introduces readers to microaggressions, provides examples of microaggressions in medical contexts, outlines the aims and goals of the book, and explains key concepts (e.g., harm, structural oppression) that are necessary for understanding the book’s arguments. It shows how this discussion is valuable to marginalized patients who want to better understand their own experiences interacting with healthcare institutions. It also demonstrates its value for healthcare professionals who want to improve their clinical interactions with marginalized patients and strategize about how to make their practices more inclusive, welcoming, and just.
Conclusion
Authors: Freeman Lauren , Stewart Heather 
Published: February 2024

Abstract
The concluding chapter accomplishes three aims. First, it summarizes the main argument presented in the book, revisiting some of the key cases discussed and highlighting the moral dimensions of the project. Whereas the previous chapter provided strategies for avoiding microaggressions in healthcare settings, this chapter provides practical tips for healthcare professionals (or anyone) when they realize that they have committed a microaggression. Finally, it outlines a number of areas in microaggression research that have received little or no attention in academic literature (e.g., microaggressions against people with disabilities, elderly people, and children) and on the basis of this discussion, outlines some further areas for research on microaggressions in medicine.
Respectful Care and Reproductive Justice as Foundations for Maternal Health Innovation
Authors: Clark Aja , Wescott Phoebe , Ushry Amy , Cruz Kiara , Allen Christie , Mahdi Inas-Khalidah 
Published: February 2024

Abstract
This chapter focuses on a framework created by a group of reproductive justice leaders, maternal and child health experts, and reproductive health researchers and practitioners. The Reproductive and Sexual Health Equity Framework is an approach to achieving the highest level of health for all people and addressing inequities in health outcomes by centering people’s reproductive and sexual health needs. Principles of the framework include centering the needs of, and redistributing power to, communities; having clinical and public health systems acknowledge historical and ongoing harms related to reproductive and sexual health; and addressing root causes of inequities. Although the framework is written for the direct use of traditionally/academically trained medical professionals, it can be used by any healthcare professional who serves Black birthing people and has a vested interest in improving maternal health experiences and outcomes.
Ida B. Wells
Authors: Wright Almeda M. 
Published: February 2024

Abstract
Chapter 3 centers Ida B. Wells’s revolutionary educational activism within the classroom, in the press, and in the church. The deaths of Wells’s parents resulted in the stunting of her own education. Wells taught out of necessity even though the classroom was the birthplace of her contributions to educational activism. This chapter also shows how Wells utilized her voice in the press as a means of radical education, as she wrote in a way that was legible and informative to Black communities. She did so through her contributions to the Evening Star, The Living Way, and Free Speech and Headlight. Chapter 3 highlights her participation in and struggles with Black activist organizations, such as the NAACP. Lastly, this chapter foregrounds and recenters Wells’s contributions to her church community: as a Sunday school teacher bringing awareness to the young men in her class of the injustices plaguing the Black community.
Septima Poinsette Clark
Authors: Wright Almeda M. 
Published: February 2024

Abstract
Chapter 5 centers Septima Poinsette Clark’s educational activism and innovation during and long before the civil rights movement. Illustrated in her collection of published and unpublished writings is the intersection of faith, teaching, and activism. Clark demonstrated this intersection through her resourceful method of education, that is, her improvisational pedagogy. Chapter 5 gives insight into Clark’s passion for activism, highlighting the effects of her experiences with classism and colorism, as well as her early career as a teacher. Most importantly, it describes the journey of Clark’s exposure to leadership within her church to her participation in a myriad of activist organizations, including the NAACP, South Carolina’s Federation of Colored Women’s Club, and Palmetto State Teachers Association. Finally, chapter 5 defines Clark’s pedagogy as one that is communal, student centered, and aimed toward love. Clark accomplished such a mission through citizenship training, leader cultivation, and faith in God.
Introduction
Authors: Liberman Anatoly 
Published: February 2024

Abstract
In this book, every chapter is the product of the author’s individual research. Hence its nontrivial results and an approach that accounts for the book’s main attraction. The stories of word origins address the reader who has never studied the history of English or any other language. The introduction explains what it takes to discover the etymology of a word (old or recent) and why, after many centuries of work, the origin of some words is still disputed or even unknown. It thus provides, among other things, a brief sketch of the state of the art. Several especially typical examples illustrate the last point. Examples are also given of two types of words: those that reveal their history through digging more and more into a remote past and those that are sound-imitative or sound-symbolic and that could therefore be coined at any time and in any place. Both situations will be explored in minute detail in the chapters that follow.
In the Air, on the Ground, and in the Sea
Authors: Liberman Anatoly 
Published: February 2024

Abstract
The subject of this chapter is the names of flowers, insects, and animals. People often try to explain the origin of words by simply looking at them. Yet butterfly hardly has any connection with butter, while foxglove has nothing to do with foxes. Both “derivations” are classic cases of folk etymology. Shrimp and shrew seem to be partly sound-symbolic (both names once began with scr-), and the history of shrew is especially interesting because of the many superstitions connected with the animal and the later application of the word to a cantankerous woman, immortalized by Shakespeare. Here historical linguistics meets the history of folklore and literature.
Some of Our Greats
Authors: Liberman Anatoly 
Published: February 2024

Abstract
Someone opening a dictionary, even a detailed etymological dictionary, rarely knows anything about the people who put together those huge volumes. James A. H. Murray, the first editor of the Oxford English Dictionary, is featured in nearly every chapter of this book, with multiple passages from his letters quoted in the text (this will be made obvious from the name index). Also, several books have been written about him. Therefore, no special chapter deals with Murray here. But the essays on Walter W. Skeat (the author of the greatest dictionary of English etymology) and Joseph Wright (the compiler of English Dialect Dictionary) celebrate their achievements. The public seldom hears about John Thoms, the founder of Notes and Queries and the man who coined the word folklore. He deserves our gratitude and recognition. The book concludes with an essay about him.
The Candidates
Authors: Ollion Étienne 
Published: February 2024

Abstract
In 2017, the French political class experienced a small revolution. After decades marked by the ever more pronounced presence of career politicians in positions of power, the country elected a new president with limited experience. And in the aftermath of Emmanuel Macron’s victory, an unusual legislature was elected. Rejuvenated, feminized, it was also made up of more than a hundred complete political novices. This unprecedented situation is the starting point of this book. Have these newcomers transformed politics, as claimed by the antiprofessional discourses that had been flourishing in the recent years? Or did they simply adapt to it? How have these novices adjusted to their new life? And what does this rare social experiment tell us about the contemporary political condition? Based on an ethnographic journey among these new MPs, while drawing on massive digital data analyzed with artificial intelligence methods, the book offers responses to these classic questions. It also yields a theoretical reflection on what the process of waiting does, in politics and beyond. It finally outlines fruitful avenues for thinking about the role of political experience in democracies.
The Passion for Politics
Authors: Ollion Étienne 
Published: February 2024

Abstract
While politics is an ill-reputed trade, it suffers no shortage of applicants. This last chapter tries to solve this apparent paradox. It first calls into question common-sense explanations, which emphasize either money or prestige as the main drivers of the interest of politicians. It then offers an alternative explanation, based less on interest and more on the long socialization to politics, which makes the hardships of the activity invisible to those who have been in the field as a whole. By so doing, the chapter offers an exploration of the political illusio, this belief in the importance of the stakes at play in this very peculiar space.
How the Old World Came to the New
Authors: Schulz Raimund J. 
Published: February 2024

Abstract
In the third century ce, global connections weakened and the driving forces behind exploration dissipated, especially in the Roman west. The Later Han Empire collapsed, and the Roman Empire was gripped by a near-fatal military and economic crisis. Nevertheless, the western Latin world preserved the essential knowledge and achievements of ancient expansion. Many geographical concepts like the spherical earth and methods for calculating the circumference of the globe, as well as the quest for marvellous places at the edge of the world, now reconceived as an earthly paradise, were inherited and developed by the Christian tradition. Transmitted through the Middle Ages and into the early-modern period, these became important preconditions for the great exploratory voyages of the Portuguese and Columbus.
Epilogue
Authors: Schulz Raimund J. 
Published: February 2024

Abstract
Antiquity was the first ‘hot’ phase of discovery in historical times. It began with the search for precious metals and luxuries for the great powers of the Bronze Age. Then came the trade and colonizing voyages of the Greeks, Phoenicians, and Carthaginians. From the fifth century bce, large empires such as Persia, Macedonia under Alexander the Great and the Hellenistic kingdoms, and, finally, Rome in the west and the Han Empire in the east encouraged long-distance trade and sent envoys on faraway missions. This led to a first globalization of the Eurasian world. It was fuelled by competitive rivalry and a mentality that combined the quest for riches with the expansion of political and military power. The constant stream of new knowledge and experiences promoted the development and evolution of various sciences, from ethnography and geography to astronomy and cosmology. Our world still draws on this legacy.
Introduction
Authors: Nakra Teresa M. 
Published: February 2024

Abstract
The Introduction presents multiple reasons why the contents of the book are vitally important. A personal story about early childhood musical experiences results in questions about the mysterious effects of music on our emotions, thoughts, and movements. Section I.1 explains that the book’s primary goal is to use creative coding practices to visualize, simulate, and experiment with the basic building blocks of musical structure. Section I.2 presents a motivating principle: to foster inclusion in music study by reducing barriers, bypassing notation literacy requirements, and embracing a plurality of musical styles. Section I.3 begins by reframing music theory as a creative activity of constructing sound and describes several ways to use the book. Section I.4 presents the general approach of constructing coherent groupings of tonal music from basic sonic elements, comparing that method with existing practices of breaking down musical forms into their constituent parts. It proposes the idea of a shared tonal framework used by different music traditions, referencing Philip Tagg’s term “everyday tonality.” It explains useful concepts from STEM fields, introduces the Max coding environment, and reviews its properties in detail. Section I.5 suggests that readers use the book by first reading the short lessons, then running the code examples, and finally, creatively remixing and modifying the code to make it “your own.” Contents include basic instructions on how to install Max, access the sample code files, and set up a computer workspace with audio playback, electronic keyboards, and other hardware devices.
Reflections
Authors: Nakra Teresa M. 
Published: February 2024

Abstract
Chapter 6 reflects on what was learned in the previous chapters, encouraging readers to explore new possibilities in music and coding and continue to develop their skills. It then reviews a broad sweep of historical, scientific, and conceptual ideas, placing Max in the context of a continuum of musical and technological innovation. It discusses how creative technologies can enable access and inclusion in music, and presents a broad definition of music as one of the best ways to learn about what it means to be human. It proposes the idea of music as a form of proto-AI, and introduces Constructionist learning theory as a framework for how coding processes can be used to better understand how music is put together. Readers are encouraged to build upon their new skills with future creative work.
Philosophical Perspective: The Challenge of Role Morality
Authors: Wendel W. Bradley 
Published: February 2024

Abstract
The deep structure underlying the criticism of lawyers in moral terms is known as the problem of role-differentiated morality. Lawyers claim to have distinctive obligations and permissions that follow from their professional role. However, without the right kind of relationship between these role-specific duties and the concerns of background “ordinary folks” morality, a profession risks losing legitimacy in the eyes of the society it is intended to serve. For example, it is possible to give too much or too little weight to a professional role. Role morality must always confront the “Eichmann problem”—that is, it is no defense to moral culpability that one was just following orders or being obedient to an authority. Paying attention to the personal dimension of acting in a professional role can help avoid the Eichmann problem.
Practicing Courage in My Sneakers
Authors: Little Sabrina B. 
Published: February 2024

Abstract
This chapter investigates how to use distance running as a laboratory for virtue. It first addresses virtue’s bad reputation and defends why we should care about virtue development, both for the sake of athletic performance and for the sake of a good life, running aside. Next, it evaluates how we can use running to grow in both virtue and in freedom, learning to choose well and self-govern effectively. This chapter examines how we might set character goals alongside performance goals in training. Finally, it addresses several critiques of using athletics for virtue development, including a concern about being imbalanced people, and the limitations of using sport to improve our characters.
Feeling Good
Authors: Little Sabrina B. 
Published: February 2024

Abstract
A perennial question in athletics is whether there is such a thing as virtuous competition. Can we compete well and aim to win without compromising our characters? This chapter answers that question in the affirmative: We can compete well and above reproach, but it is often difficult to do so. In part, our ability to compete well depends on which emotions mediate our relationships to competitors—envy, admiration, or something else. This chapter argues for the importance of caring about competing with excellence, in ways that do not undermine community, and it does a deep dive into emotions relevant to competition. It first defines emotions, as opposed to moods and feelings, and describes their relevance for virtue. Next, it introduces a set of emotions especially important for discussions of competition. Finally, it describes ways in which we might diffuse the presence of envy in our sport.
Bad Competition
Authors: Little Sabrina B. 
Published: February 2024

Abstract
What if there are certain vices that support peak performance? Should we permit high-level athletes to be bad people, in certain respects, if it means they will get more out of themselves on race day? This chapter introduces the concept of performance-enhancing vices—defects of character that assist us to perform well as runners. These vices result from a misalignment between a good life and good running, and they are a difficult set of vices to root out because of their beneficial impact on performance. Having a good character may have a performance cost. This puts athletes and coaches in an odd position. In this chapter, we examine four candidates for performance-enhancing vices—selfishness, intransigence, pride, and envy. We investigate whether high-level athletes should be excused from virtue in these respects. We also explore how the media and fame culture surrounding sport contributes to the presence of vices in athletics.
Limitless
Authors: Little Sabrina B. 
Published: February 2024

Abstract
Maybe the “limitless” language we often use in sports is misguided. This chapter places limitlessness in conversation with considerations of nature and community. It investigates what it means to be human. It explores the Faustian bargains we often make with our health for the sake of performance and the dangers of overstepping our natural limits in sport. This chapter also critiques how suffering is often regarded in endurance sports, such as with the lionizing of physical damages that follows from phrases like “No pain, no gain” and “Pain is weakness leaving the body.” It argues that not all forms of elective suffering are equally productive or part of a good life.
Conclusion
Authors: Little Sabrina B. 
Published: February 2024

Abstract
The conclusion reflects on what this book has aimed to do. This book has placed running in conversation with the classical tradition of inquiry about character and the good life. In doing so, it has described the process of developing virtues and how we might learn from athletes. It has also explored emotions and competition, natural limits, happiness, and the nature of suffering. There are two new classes of traits relevant to sport: performance-enhancing virtues, the carbon-plated shoes of the soul; and performance-enhancing vices, traits that make us successful performers but otherwise detract from a good life. The hope is that this book will start a new conversation about how to take our happiness seriously and live good lives in and out of the sport.
