Paperback. Condición: New. Delivering safe, high-quality care needs a competent and capable workforce, particularly as clinical practices change with scientific and technical advances. Structured learning opportunities are a central approach to building and maintaining competencies, but ineffective training wastes the scarce resources and staff time. This Element provides a review of education and training design, implementation, and evaluation methods used in healthcare improvement. Drawing from the general learning sciences and healthcare education and training literatures, the authors describe five pillars of effective training. For each pillar, they provide actionable guidance based on the best available evidence. Three examples of quality and safety programmes are given to illustrate the positive impact of well-designed training, and the challenges of good training design in healthcare improvement. This title is also available as open access on Cambridge Core.

Soft cover. Condición: Very Good. 1st Edition. First edition, journal issue, of this famous paper introducing the concept of the 'Einstein-Rosen bridge', now known as a 'wormhole'. "In the last decades of his life, Albert Einstein tried endlessly to unify electromagnetism with his own theory of gravity, general relativity. These efforts are mostly now regarded as quixotic, but a short proposal written in 1935 with a colleague has survived in unlikely fashion as the source of science-fiction ideas for speeding across the universe by means of 'wormholes' through spacetime. From the modern perspective, the paper also illustrates how general relativity posed mathematical and conceptual difficulties that foxed even its creator. Einstein and Nathan Rosen, both at the Institute for Advanced Study in Princeton, wanted to rid physics of singularities - points where mathematical quantities become infinite or otherwise ill-defined such as the concept of a particle that has all its mass concentrated into an infinitely small geometrical point. In general relativity, a point mass curves spacetime around it in a way that was calculated by Karl Schwarzschild in 1916. The Schwarzschild solution has mathematical singularities both at zero and at the so-called Schwarzschild radius. Reinterpretation of the Schwarzschild solution avoids these singularities, Einstein and Rosen argued in their 1935 Phys. Rev. paper. They imagined a path tracing radially inward. Instead of trying to cross the imaginary spherical shell at the singular radius and proceeding down to the center, Einstein and Rosen showed how to match the path onto another track that emerges outward again but into a separate section of spacetime. Imagine funnel shapes pulled out of two adjacent rubber sheets and connected at their necks, providing a continuous, tube-shaped path from one surface to the other. This construction makes a smooth connection or bridge between two distinct pieces of spacetime. Viewed from afar, either part of this solution represents the gravitational effect of a mass because spacetime is strongly curved, but no physical body is present . They hoped their construction would offer a starting point for a unified theory of gravity and electromagnetism based purely on fields, avoiding point particles and the singularities that came with them. Not until 1939 was the modern idea of a black hole broached [Oppenheimer, Phys. Rev. 56, p. 455], and only later were the subtleties of the Schwarzschild solution fully understood. The singular radius that Einstein and Rosen worked hard to avoid became the black hole's event horizon. Although it is a one-way surface light can pass across it going inward, but cannot come out all physical quantities remain well defined at the event horizon. No true singularities arise there. Further theoretical work showed that the Einstein-Rosen 'wormhole' is not, contrary to outward appearances, a stable structure. For an observer trying to pass through, the wormhole opens up and closes too quickly for even a photon to get through. Later work suggested that exotic forms of energy threaded through a wormhole might keep it open but it remains unclear whether such arrangements are physically feasible" (Lindley, "The Birth of Wormholes", Phys. Rev. Focus, 15:11). Wormholes have recently become of greater interest because of the 'ER = EPR' conjecture, proposed by Leonard Susskind and Juan Maldacena in 2013. Six weeks before the present paper, Einstein, Boris Podolsky and Rosen published the famous 'EPR' paper which introduced the idea of 'quantum entanglement'. ER = EPR states that two entangled particles are connected by a wormhole. It is thought by some to be a basis for unifying general relativity and quantum mechanics into a theory of everything.

Includes the retort by Einstein and Rosen (originators of speculation on the existence of "worm-holes" in spacetime) to objections made to the general theory of relativity. According to Galina Weinstein: "Between 1935 and 1936, Einstein was occupied with the Schwarzschild solution and the singularity within it while working in Princeton on the unified field theory and with his assistant Nathan Rosen, on the theory of the Einstein-Rosen bridges. He was also occupied with quantum theory. He believed that quantum theory was an incomplete representation of real things. Together with Rosen and Boris Podolsky he invented the EPR paradox. I demonstrate that the two-body problem in general relativity was a heuristic guide in Einstein's and collaborators' 1935 work on the Einstein-Rosen bridge and EPR paradox."Also articles by notable physicists on radioactivity, electron mobility, quantum-mechanical measurement, and so on.

With small photographs of the "Modern Daylight Factory," union, showing material, cutting, laundry and stitching. About 8 x 9 inches, publisher's embossed cloth portfolio enclosing 38 leaves of inset samples and text on one side, and many samples of dress shirt fabrics with prices on the other. There are a few spots of discoloration to just a few of the samples. It appears as though three small shirt fabric samples are missing from the verso of one of the stiff cards on which they were mounted. Otherwise, fine and extremely attractive.
