Trump Fiction

Trump Fiction:Essays on Donald Trump in Literature, Film, and Television examines depictions of Donald Trump and his fictional avatars in literature, film, and television, including works that took up the subject of Trump before his successful presidential campaign (in terms that often uncannily prefigure his presidency) as well as those that have appeared since he took office. Covering a range of texts and approaches, the essays in this collection analyze the place Trump has assumed in literary and popular culture. By investigating how authors including Bret Easton Ellis, Amy Waldman, Thomas Pynchon, Howard Jacobson, Mark Doten, Olivia Laing, and Salman Rushdie, along with films and television programs like The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air, Sesame Street, Sex and the City, Two Weeks Notice, Our Cartoon President, and Pose have approached and shaped the discourse surrounding Trump, the contributors collectively demonstrate the ways these cultural artifacts serve as sites through which the culture both resists and abets Trump and his rise to power.

Parkinson’s Disease and Movement Disorders

The field of movement disorders is relatively broad, encompassing disorders of increased movement, such as tremors, dystonia, and tics, to disorders characterized by a paucity of movement, such as Parkinson's disease. Our understanding of the pathogenic mechanisms and our treatment options are expanding at a rapid pace. This expansion ranges from the medical and surgical advances in treating Parkinson's disease to the flood of genetic abnormalities that have now been found to cause various movement disorders.

Aphasiology

Frederic L. Darley was the consummate clinical scientist. One cannot peruse the literature on neurogenic communication disorders without constantly encountering his name, his work, his influence. His work was monumental. The contributors of the seven papers in this issue of Aphasiology have long and impressive track records as researchers and clinicians. Their papers are important because not only do they reflect how Darley's work has influenced diagnostic and patient management decisions, but in some cases the contributors take issue with and/or expand on his work. This ability to question existing evidence was a trait that Fred Darley instilled in his students. Equally important is that each paper tells us something about him as a person, as a mentor who shaped careers, and about the love and respect his students and colleagues had for him.
