The nursing process generally is understood as key element of professional nursing care in Germany. This study follows this argument back to the introduction of the nursing process in the 1970s and 1980s. At that time, the German healthcare system underwent dramatic changes and economic reorganization, which can be understood as the emergence of the neoliberal rationale in Germany. The argument of cost explosion was used to restructure hospitals into enterprises that were to operate based on the logic of the market. Its cybernetic logic made the nursing process an ideal instrument to restructure nursing care. Perspectives of governmentality and critical accounting reveal the nursing process as an accounting tool which has made nursing calculable. And while German nurses valued its potential for professionalization, the findings suggest that a newly constituted accountable nursing vocation can instead be considered as de-professionalizing.

Vernetzung und sektorenubergreifende Kommunikation mittels moderner Informations- und Kommunikationstechnologien erfahren im deutschen Gesundheitswesen eine kontinuierlich wachsende Bedeutung: 85 % der Entscheidungstrager der Leistungsanbieter betrachten "eHealth" als wichtigen Wettbewerbsfaktor, 73 % sehen darin sogar einen Erfolgsfaktor fur den Standort Deutschland. Das vorliegende Buch stellt den Status Quo dar und wagt zugleich einen Blick in die Zukunft. Verschiedene Autoren aus Forschung, Lehre und Praxis beleuchten in ihren Beitragen jeweils unterschiedliche Aspekte des Themengebietes und bieten Praktikern und Fuhrungskraften fundierte Informationen uber die Anwendungsgebiete, die technische Durchfuhrung und die datenschutzrechtlichen Implikationen dieser neuen Technologie sowie Hilfen zur Entscheidungsfindung; mehrere Anwendungsbeispiele aus der Telemedizin (Radiologie, Kardiologie), auch aus dem europaischen Ausland, veranschaulichen die vielfaltigen Moglichkeiten einer vernetzten, medizinischen Versorgung.
Performance practice is the study of how music was performed over the centuries, both by its originators (the composers and performers who introduced the works) and, later, by revivalists. This first of its kind Dictionary offers entries on composers, musiciansperformers, technical terms, performance centers, musical instruments, and genres, all aimed at elucidating issues in performance practice. This A-Z guide will help students, scholars, and listeners understand how musical works were originally performed and subsequently changed over the centuries. Compiled by a leading scholar in the field, this work will serve as both a point-of-entry for beginners as well as a roadmap for advanced scholarship in the field.
Ornaments play an enormous role in the music of the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries, and ambiguities in their notation (as well as their frequent omission in the score) have left doubt as to how composers intended them to be interpreted. Frederick Neumann, himself a violinist and conductor, questions the validity of the rigid principles applied to their performance. In this controversial work, available for the first time in paperback, he argues that strict constraints are inconsistent with the freedom enjoyed by musicians of the period. The author takes an entirely new look at ornamentation, and particularly that of J. S. Bach. He draws on extensive research in England, France, Germany, Italy, and the United States to show that prevailing interpretations are based on inadequate evidence. These restrictive interpretations have been far-reaching in their effect on style. By questioning them, this work continues to stimulate a reorientation in our understandiing of Baroque and post-Baroque music.
