A 66-year-old male with no pertinent medical or family history presents to outpatient neurology clinic with 1 year of progressive weakness in his left arm and hand, and 6 months of weakness in his right arm and hand. He also reports he has fallen multiple times over the past few months and has noticed it is becoming more difficult to swallow solid foods. Denies neck or limb pain, poor appetite, or bowel/bladder symptoms.

This chapter addresses systemic challenges and opportunities within the mental health professions related to the inclusion, support, and empowerment of multiply marginalized practitioners, particularly practitioners of color with dis/abilities. In the context of increasing global mental health needs and an insufficiently diverse workforce, the chapter uses Critical Race Theory (CRT), Disability Justice, and Disability Critical Race Theory (DisCrit) to explore how systemic oppression, ableism, and racism are embedded in professional structures, such as training, education, and workplace contexts. Despite these barriers, marginalized practitioners bring vital lived experience and culturally grounded insight that improve client outcomes and enrich the field. The chapter concludes with best practices and guidance for transforming professional cultures to promote equity, belonging, and sustainability in mental health work. It emphasizes the urgency of moving beyond token inclusion toward systemic change that values and supports marginalized identities as assets rather than liabilities.

In the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, much of the rest of northwestern Europe joined Britain on the path of sustained economic growth. Several other economies began to grow as well, among them the United States and Japan. But many others lagged behind. Chapter 7 explains these divergent outcomes. It does so not by analyzing worldwide data on economic growth, but by examining telling examples of rapid economic progress and of stagnation and even impoverishment: France and Russia, the United States and Mexico, Japan and China, and – last but not least – Africa. These examples lead to important conclusions about economic growth in general and about how widely its rewards are shared. As we have seen, political institutions will matter, and so will religion. But inequality will make a big difference too. It may keep people from using their talents or create perverse political incentives that stifle education and the accumulation of human capital. The resulting differences in economic performance can persist for decades.

In Chapter 7 we focused our attention on particular solutions of the problem of three bodies, namely relative equilibria and homographic orbits. In this chapter we extend our study to a more general framework, in the light of the theories of Tullio Levi-Civita on regularization and of Karl Frithiof Sundman on the search of general solutions.

Given the flooding risks emerging from climate change, the chapter explores the amphibious transformation through counterproposals to terra-centric urbanization. It addresses how and why cybernetics-based designs for Tokyo Bay in the 1960s experienced long-lasting marginalization but shaped the present ecomodernist approach to climate-resilient sea surface urbanization, like the United Nations’ “sustainable floating city” project. Ecomodernism is an environmentalist “school” and focuses on technologically decoupling socio-economic development from resource use and environmental degradation. The chapter argues that these 1960s’ cybernetic designs were counterproposals to the “tools of terrestrialization,” like dams, seawalls, and industrial-scale land reclamation, which the Age of Coal’s access to affordable energy had globally enabled. Architect Tange Kenzō’s and designer Buckminster Fuller’s teams devised artificial communication systems that replicated biological processes, returning urbanization’s attention to the adaption to aquatic conditions. The cybernetic designs sought to decouple urban growth from pressure on ecosystems, turning them into forms of proto-ecomodernism.

The Cambridge Edition of the Complete Fiction of Henry James provides, for the first time, a scholarly edition of a major writer whose work continues to be read, quoted, adapted and studied. This is the first full critical edition of James’s first major novel after his unhappy venture into commercial theatre. The Spoils of Poynton marks a shift towards the representation of complex psychological states characteristic of his later fiction, telling a dramatic story about the fate of the beautiful artefacts lovingly collected by the widow Adela Gereth and her late husband. Who do they, should they, belong to? The novel describes with extraordinary delicacy an intense family feud arising from the competing claims of those close to Mrs Gereth, and the ordeal endured by the young and intelligent Fleda Vetch as she tries to resolve it. This edition features a substantial introduction, explanatory notes, textual variants, bibliography and appendices.

A 63-year-old Caucasian woman with history of tobacco use and chronic joint pain presents to the emergency department with 3 weeks of progressively worsening episodes of left headache. She states the pain is primarily lateral to her left eye, and occasionally spreads into her left jaw when she chews. Over the past week the headaches have become more frequent and almost constant. She reports 10 pounds of weight loss since her headaches started and has been feeling much more fatigued than usual. This morning, she woke up with a headache and noticed the vision in her left eye was blurry. She denies other numbness or weakness.

A 31-year-old, otherwise healthy female presents to the emergency room with 2 days of progressive shortness of breath and difficulty swallowing. She reports over the past year that she gets tired much more easily through the day, to the point where it is difficult to keep her eyes open or head up, but this improves with rest. Recently she developed difficulty chewing solid foods, primarily at dinner. Her vision gets blurry at the end of the day, and she sometimes sees two of the same object when both her eyes are open.

The miscellany was a crucially important mode of literature in this period, and particular reasons for this are set out in an early segment of the chapter. This was also the case for Swift and for Curll, although it served very different purposes over the duration of their lives. In fact, Swift founded his career (especially as a poet) largely on his presence in miscellanies, a form in which much of Curll’s output lay. His Miscellanies (1711) made up the earliest collection of his writings, but it had to displace a smaller grouping that Curll had assembled in the previous year. Soon afterwards the bookseller embarked on a long series of similar items, including fresh raids on Swift’s oeuvre. The form proved well suited to Curll’s needs, most of all in his efforts to cover up the sources of his material. The various interactions of the two men in this mode are analysed, and a section devoted to the question raised by Stephen Karian as to whether Curll’s activity can reasonably be considered as literary piracy.

A 62-year-old man with history of hypertension and migraine presents to the emergency room with confusion, joined by his wife. She reports that approximately 6 hours ago he was outside on the back porch talking with his brother about the death of their mother yesterday, when he came back into her room and started asking questions about things he should know about, such as what they had done that day, what the plans were. He seemed shocked when reminded that he had just spoken to his brother. When she told him these things, he would ask again moments later. She denied that he had experienced any previous similar events or had any recent head trauma. She says he never lost consciousness and was never confused about his own identity; however, anything she said he seemed to immediately forget about. He was able to remember who she was, and distant past events well. At no point did she see any weakness, slurred speech, or abnormal movement, nor did he complain of a headache. Symptoms have been persistent, though his confusion has started to improve over the past hour. When asked, he has no recollection of the day’s events and is frustrated she brought him to the hospital.
