BECOMING A REFLECTIVE PRACTITIONER In the newly revised sixth edition of Becoming a Reflective Practitioner , expert researcher and nurse Christopher Johns delivers a rich and incisive resource on reflective practice in healthcare that offers readers a diverse and expansive range of contributions. It explores the value of using models of reflection, with a focus on John’s own model of structured reflection, to inform and enhance the practice of professional nursing. This book is an essential guide for everyone using reflection in everyday clinical practice or required to demonstrate reflection for professional registration. Students will acquire new insights into how they interact with their colleagues and their environment, and how those things shape their own behaviours, both positively and negatively. Readers will learn to “look in” on their thoughts and emotions and “look out” at the situations they experience to inform how they understand the circumstances they find themselves in. Readers will also benefit from: Thorough introductions to reflective practice, writing the Self and engaging in the reflective spiral Comprehensive explorations of how to frame and deepen insights, weave and perform narratives Practical discussions of how to move towards more poetic form of expression and reflecting through art and storyboard In-depth examinations of the reflective curriculum, touch and the environment and reflective teaching as ethical practice Perfect for nurses in clinical practice, conducting research or developing their practice, the latest edition of Becoming a Reflective Practitioner is also an indispensable resource for mentors and clinical supervisors, post-registration nursing and healthcare students and other healthcare practitioners.

Ein Schwerpunkt des Stahlbau-Kalenders 2022 ist der Brandschutz, der existenziell für die Stahlbauweise ist. Die ganzheitliche Betrachtung des vorbeugenden Brandschutzes unter Berücksichtigung der nutzungsbedingten Gefährdungspotentiale und Schutzziele spielt bei der Planung und Errichtung von Bauwerken eine wesentliche Rolle. Planung und Entwurf mithilfe von Brandschutzkonzepten und Naturbrandmodellen können vorteilhafte, wirtschaftliche Konstruktionen hervorbringen.<br> Mit dem zweiten Schwerpunktthema Türme und Maste behandelt dieser Kalender ein Spezialthema des Stahlbaus mit seinen spezifischen Konstruktionsformen und Einwirkungen, insbesondere aus Wind.<br> Der Stahlbau-Kalender dokumentiert verlässlich und aus erster Hand den aktuellen Stand der Stahlbau-Regelwerke. In diesem Sinne werden, neben der Aktualisierung des Kommentars zu Eurocode 3 Teil 1-1 «Bemessungsregeln für den Hochbau», die neuen Entwicklungen zur Regelung der «Brandeinwirkungen auf Tragwerke» in prEN 1991-1-2 und der «Tragwerksbemessung für den Brandfall» in prEN 1993-1-2 dargestellt und erläutert.<br> Wie immer bewegen sich alle Kapitel nahe an der Ingenieurpraxis und enthalten zahlreiche Beispiele. Das Buch ist ein Wegweiser für die richtige Berechnung und Konstruktion im gesamten Stahlbau mit neuen Themen in jeder Ausgabe. Herausragende Autoren aus der Industrie, aus Ingenieurbüros und aus der Forschung vermitteln Grundlagen und geben praktische Hinweise.<br>

It has become axiomatic to contend that U.S. foreign policy must adapt to an era of renewed “great-power competition.” The United States went on a quarter-century strategic detour after the Cold War, the argument goes, basking in triumphalism and getting bogged down in the Middle East. Now China and Russia are increasingly challenging its influence and undercutting the order it has led since 1945. How should it respond to these two formidable authoritarian powers? In this timely intervention, Ali Wyne offers the first detailed critique of great-power competition as a foreign policy framework, warning that it could render the United States defensive and reactive. He exhorts Washington to find a middle ground between complacence and consternation, selectively contesting Beijing and Moscow but not allowing their decisions to determine its own course. Analyzing a resurgent China, a disruptive Russia, and a deepening Sino-Russian entente, Wyne explains how the United States can seize the «great-power opportunity» at hand: to manage all three of those phenomena confidently while renewing itself at home and abroad.
