Computer-Assisted Research in the Humanities describes various computer-assisted research in the humanities and related social sciences. It is a compendium of data collected between November 1966 and May 1972 and published in Computer and the Humanities. The book begins with an analysis of language teaching texts including the DOVACK system, a program used for remedial reading instruction. It then discusses the objectives, types of computer used, and status of the Bibliographic On-line Display (BOLD), semiotic systems, augmented human intellect program, automatic indexing, and similar research. The remaining chapters present computer-assisted research on language and literature, philosophy, social sciences, and visual arts. Students who seek a single reference work for computer-assisted research in the humanities will find this book useful.
For over two decades, Theresa S. Betancourt researched former child soldiers from Sierra Leone’s civil war to find out if they could reintegrate into communities where they had been forced to commit atrocities. She found that the key to resilience after trauma was not just their individual capacities, but the layers of support and care around them.
É possível viver a academia na segurança e no conforto do óbvio. É seguro e cômodo. Melhor será, contudo, se o pensador se dispuser a ir às fronteiras epistemológicas de seus domínios para trabalhar sobre o que é novo e, quiçá, oferecer referências para que a sociedade evolua positivamente, certo que há momentos em que nos punimos com regressão. Empresas e Direitos Humanos é uma excursão de brilhantes intelectuais, de múltiplos cantos e instituições brasileiras, somados à gentil colaboração estrangeira do melhor quilate, a bem de examinar áreas incomuns, mas de extrema importância.

Daydreaming On A Train to Canada (On My Way) represents musings running through a modern immigrant passenger’s mind aboard a train ride to Canada; a modern immigrant passenger who has been around the world and has finally decided to settle down in Canada. His tapestry of thoughts are penned in the form of poems throughout his long train ride during which he fluctuates between a dream state and reality. What begins as a metaphorical train ride eventually becomes a real one. This anthology pays tribute to contemporary and sometimes controversial issues that plague our world today. There are many introspective moments from the passenger’s subliminal mind intimately weaved into the collection. After all, the immigrant passenger is an allegory of the modern human condition. Many of us are at some point in a journey towards a destination. Along the way, there may be obstacles encountered and lessons learnt. Likewise, in this collection there are many checkpoints and stations along the way, reflecting the chapters in the chronology of life. The question remains if the immigrant passenger does reach the final destination; everyone hopes he does but does he eventually?
