Book Description
While many effective interventions have been developed with the potential to significantly reduce morbidity and mortality from cancer, they are of no benefit to the health of populations if they cannot be delivered. In response to this challenge, Advancing the Science of Implementation across the Cancer Continuum provides an overview of research that can improve the delivery of evidence-based interventions in cancer prevention, early detection, treatment, and survivorship. Chapters explore the field of implementation science and its application to practice, a broad synthesis of relevant research and case studies illustrating each cancer-focused topic area, and emerging issues at the intersection of research and practice in cancer. Both comprehensive and accessible, this book is an ideal resource for researchers, clinical and public health practitioners, medical and public health students, and health policymakers.

Book Description
"America's preeminent law firms, investment banks, and management consultant firms are known for being difficult workplaces. Between long, stressful hours on the job, low odds of promotions, often-unrewarding work assignments, and "up-or-out" personnel practices, most people who begin their careers in these institutions leave within several years of starting. But life in these firms is especially difficult for Black professionals, who leave elite firms more quickly and receive far fewer promotions than their white counterparts. As a result, they remain highly underrepresented in senior positions. Amid increasing calls for diversity in many workplaces, why are these institutions still so bad at maintaining, cultivating, and promoting Black employees? Author Kevin Woodson is a sociologist and JD, one who knows firsthand what life at an elite law firm feels like as a Black man. By examining the experiences of more than 100 Black professionals in elite corporate law firms, investment banks, and management consulting firms, Woodson offers a revelatory new assessment of workplace inequality in high-status jobs. Black professionals say their biggest obstacle in the workplace is not explicit bias. What they identify instead is "racial discomfort"-social alienation and stigma anxiety. Woodson shows how this country's larger history of segregation and discrimination influence the micro-interactions between individual workers, generating firm-level patterns of inequality, with far-reaching implications for efforts to understand and overcome racial inequality in the workplace. In calling attention to the racialized nature and impact of many seemingly innocuous and insignificant aspects of professional life, Woodson illuminates the impact of certain everyday practices and arrangements in reproducing racial hierarchy. The project helps explain the inadequacy of unconscious bias training and other current approaches to take on workplace inequities. Racial inequality in the workforce is not just a matter of racial bias. To more fully understand and address the dynamics that so consistently undermine equality and inclusiveness in elite firms and other employment contexts, we must look beyond bias, to a broader set of challenges"--

Book Description
Winner, 2019 ATHE Outstanding Book Award, given by the Association for Theatre in Higher Education Winner, 2018 Errol Hill Award in African American theater, drama, and/or performance studies, presented by the American Society for Theatre Research A new manifesto for performance studies on the art of queer of color worldmaking. After the Party tells the stories of minoritarian artists who mobilize performance to produce freedom and sustain life in the face of subordination, exploitation, and annihilation. Through the exemplary work of Nina Simone, Jorge Ignacio Cortiñas, Danh Vō, Felix Gonzalez-Torres, Eiko, and Tseng Kwong Chi, and with additional appearances by Nao Bustamante, Audre Lorde, Martin Wong, Assata Shakur, and Nona Faustine, After the Party considers performance as it is produced within and against overlapping histories of US colonialism, white supremacy, and heteropatriarchy. Building upon the thought of José Esteban Muñoz alongside prominent scholarship in queer of color critique, black studies, and Marxist aesthetic criticism, Joshua Chambers-Letson maps a portrait of performance’s capacity to produce what he calls a communism of incommensurability, a practice of being together in difference. Describing performance as a rehearsal for new ways of living together, After the Party moves between slavery, the Civil Rights Movement, the first wave of the AIDS crisis, the Vietnam War, and the catastrophe-riddled horizon of the early twenty-first century to consider this worldmaking practice as it is born of the tension between freedom and its negation. With urgency and pathos, Chambers-Letson argues that it is through minoritarian performance that we keep our dead alive and with us as we struggle to survive an increasingly precarious present.

Book Description
This book, part of the Stanford Law School research project on the future of the legal profession, thoroughly examines the future of “big law,” defined as the large and mid-size multiservice highly specialized law firms that provide sophisticated, complex and generally costly legal work to multinationals, large and mid-size domestic corporations, and other business clients. By systematically gathering, assessing, and analyzing the best available quantitative and qualitative data on the first tier of the corporate legal services market of Latin America and Spain, and interviewing a broadly representative sample of corporate legal officers, law firm partners, and other stakeholders in each of the countries covered, this book provides a nuanced perspective on changes in “big law” during the last two decades until the present. It also explores the factors that are driving these changes, and the implications for the future of legal profession, legal education and its relationship with the corporate sector and society in general.
