Abstract
In the 21st century, James Bond has become synonymous with fast cars, stiff drinks, high stakes and beautiful women. He is the quintessential British hero - men want to be him, and women want to be with him. This paper looks at how upon closer examination of Ian Fleming's 1958 novel, "Doctor No", it appears that Bond is not the perfect embodiment of the Alpha Male as we have come to regard him. It discusses how "Doctor No" shows thinly veiled homosexual anxieties in the relationship between Bond and Honeychile Rider.
From the Paper
"James Bond is illustrated as a product of the British Public School system. Tony Bennett and Janet Woolacott, writers of Bond and Beyond, determine this from 'Bond's relationship to M [which] carries with it some of the nuances of public school 'fagging', fear, respect and admiration.' Ian Fleming's own education at Eton hints at the source of homosexual anxieties implicit in Doctor No. In Hugo Williams' commentary on Fleming, Williams remembers his own Eton days, 'having to cook sausages over an open fireplace for some older boy.' This insinuation at the same sex domesticity between the boys at Eton - where the younger boy is presumably the wife, the older boy the husband - is rehearsed throughout Doctor No."

Abstract
This paper provides both a summary and an analysis of Thomas Fleming's book 'The Louisiana Purchase', a book detailing the history of the purchase of Louisiana by the United States. According to this paper, Fleming examines the process that led to the purchase of the Louisiana territory from its inception to the very end.
From the Paper
"The Louisiana Purchase added over 830,000 square miles of land to the territory possessed by the United States, virtually doubling the country's size. The land that was added would eventually be divided into a number of the current southern, Midwestern, and western states. Such an extensive addition to a country does not happen overnight, nor can it happen without collaboration between many people. The Louisiana Purchase was no exception. Thomas Fleming's book, 'The Louisiana Purchase', looks at many, if not all, of the factors that went into this massive undertaking."

From the Paper
"In an increasingly globalized marketplace, understanding the forces at play has become more challenging that ever before. Fortunately, economists have some useful tools at their disposal to help them make sense of things, with one of these being the Mundell-Fleming model. All of the models share in common the fact that they are better suited for some purposes than others, and the Mundell-Fleming model is no exception."

Thomas Fleming's "The Purchase of Louisiana", 2007.
This paper is a book report describing Thomas Fleming's "The Purchase of Louisiana", which details the diplomacy and rivalry surrounding President Thomas Jefferson's success in obtaining the Louisiana territory.

Abstract
This paper states that Thomas Fleming's strong research in preparation to writing "The Louisiana Purchase" indicated that the United States wanted to gain control over access to the Mississippi River to be able to ship goods through to Spain and to provide safe harbor for American ships servicing the southern states. The author points out that Fleming argues that possibly Napoleon was willing to sell the Louisiana territory because he was more interested in diverting his attention to the unconquered areas of Egypt and India rather than the undeveloped areas of Louisiana. The paper stresses that the Louisiana Purchase was a victory with the rival French, established the U.S. as a world power and gave Americans a vast new and different land in which to acquire new lifestyles.
From the Paper
"It is obvious from the book that after the "Quasi War" or the undeclared war with France, relations were at a definite strain. These battles fought only at sea and lasted from 1798 to 1800. The tensions manifested themselves with France when they began seizing American ships and goods that were trading with the British. The hostilities between the U.S. and France became a major cause of frictions and physical confrontations primarily due to the greed over land and power that permeated the world at the time."

"REVIEW OF BENJAMIN FRANKLIN: A BIOGRAPHY IN HIS OWN WORDS
BY THOMAS FLEMING
About Benjamin Franklin
When Benjamin Frankilin was 22 years old, in 1728, he wrote his own epitaph: "The body of Benjamin Franklin, Printer (like the cover of an old book, its contents torn out and stripped of its lettering and gilding), lies here, food for worms; but the work shall not be lost, for it will (as he believed) appear once more in a new and more elegant edition, revised and corrected by the Author" (Bartletts 117).

He was born in Boston in 1706 and when he was 17, moved to Philadelphia to work as a printer. In the course of ..."

The Wizard Of Oz ( Victor Fleming ), 1988.

From the Paper
" The Wizard of Oz, which made at MGM in 1939, is still on of the world?s favorite films. It has remained special because it visualizes its own unique world. It inspired many films that followed, from Star Wars to Close Encounters of the Third Kind, because it constructed its own universe: one that could be enjoyed by adults and children alike.
Others films have borrowed more noticeably and directly from The Wizard of Oz. The opening sequence of Martin Scorsese?s Alice Doesn?t Live Here Anymore shows the young Alice in a setting very much like Dorothy in the Kansas opener of Oz. The sci-fi epic Zardoz, directed by John Boorman, also borrows from the classic, starting with its title and the play (...)"

The Depiction of Women in Three Escapist Fictions, 2001.
A comparison of the depiction of women in Geoffrey Chaucer?s "The Tale of the Wife of Bath", Ian Fleming?s "From Russia with Love" and Sheri Tepper?s "Beauty".

Abstract
This essay explores how three influential writers, Geoffrey Chaucer, Ian Flemming and Sheri Tepper, from three different eras have depicted women in their writing. The portrayal of females by each writer is explored separately and then contrasted with that of the other writers. Specific examples and characters from these literary masterpieces are used to support the author?s argument. The author provides an analysis of the different ways in which women have been depicted throughout the history of literature
From the Paper
"The representation of women in literature has been the focus of much research conducted by both feminists and literature critics, particularly over the last thirty years. Sheri Tepper?s Beauty, Geoffrey Chaucer?s The Wife of Bath and Ian Fleming?s From Russia with Love, are all examples of escapist fiction in which the attitudes towards women play a key role in the theme of the story. Despite the claim that escapist fiction is isolated from the world in which its author lives, the values of both the author and the society in which he or she lives are reflected in their writing. The Wife of Bath, written in the fourteenth century, represents females as identical member of one group, all possessing the same faults and desires. Fleming, writing in 1957, depicts women differently again, categorising them into two extreme stereotypes ? the dominant, aggressive female and the submissive, naive female."

From the Paper
"This study will present a critical analysis of "The Nazi Doctors", by Robert Jay Lifton. The sub-title of the book, "Medical Killing and the Psychology of Genocide," describes the author's viewpoint and intentions.
The main theme of the book is, indeed, the mind of the Nazi doctor, in general, who committed the most inhumane crimes against helpless victims in the name of "science" or "medicine." From documents available at conferences on the Holocaust, the author "began to realize the extraordinary importance of doctors in general for the Nazi killing project".
The author recognized that he was dealing not only with barely speakable horrors, but also that he was running the risk, with his psychological study, of giving the impression that such ghastly evil could somehow be "understood.""

From the Paper
"The case of Bobby Keller and Ed Maupin was especially interesting because of the further implications of their story. Ed and Bobby lived in a small town about 60 miles from the doctor's office in Johnson City. They came to him because they were afraid to be treated or tested in their own town. They had lived together for about 10 years, and both had been married before and fathered children. Both of them tried to deny their homosexuality by marrying, but both of them found they could not live a lie. Having practiced unsafe sex with multiple partners, they both had contracted HIV."

Abstract
This paper looks at John Updike's treatment of racism in his book, "The Doctor's Wife". The discussion between the doctor's wife and Ralph and Eve is examined, and examples from it are used to demonstrate the division between Caucasian Americans and African Americans. Also examined are the meanings associated with some of the symbolic words Updike uses in his story.
From the Paper
"John Updike?s short story ?The Doctor?s Wife?, illustrates the division between African Americans and white people shortly after the end of segregation. In Updike?s story, a doctor and his wife are visiting a family in the Caribbean. The doctor?s wife carries on a conversation at the beach with a married couple, Ralph and Eve. The conversation between the couple and the doctor?s wife is sought with powerful symbolism, which relates to racism. The use of the word white is consistently used throughout the short story to show superiority."

Abstract
In this article, the writer notes that an e-health doctor-patient relationship is formed when communication begins. The writer maintains that online communication between doctors and patients can save time, money and be very satisfying to both parties if the process is structured well. The writer looks at issues, such as e-mail communication viewed as "treatment" and medicine practiced online by physicians who communicate via the Internet with patients. This paper discusses some ethical issues focusing on online communication and the doctor-patient relationship. The writer concludes that health care providers who provide specific or personal medical care or advice online must practice the principle of professionalism and should abide by their ethical codes of their profession just as they do for face-to-face interactions.
Outline:
Reasons Consumers/Providers use the Web for Medical Information
e-Health Ethics Organizations
Three Types of Web Sites
The Doctor Patient Relationship and e-Health
Conclusions
From the Paper
"A provider that responds to email may face ethical and legal obligation. When physicians provide telephone consultations payment does not seem to be a factor in a doctor-patient relationship, but payment of a fee for online education or advice may be seen as acceptance of a doctor-patient relationship
"An important issue for a physician to avoid is a patient claim of abandonment. There is a protocol that a physician must follow to successfully terminate the patient-doctor relationship. Abandonment is defined as the act of a physician terminating a relationship at an unreasonable time and without giving the patient the chance to find an equally qualified replacement."

Abstract
This paper is a report from a medical supply company regarding the responsibility of physicians who work in close association with pharmaceutical companies to put the well being of their patients at the forefront of their professional work. The paper states, that whilst cooperation between doctors and pharmaceutical companies is essential for the development of new treatments, the doctor's prime consideration is, and must always be, the well being of his patient. The writer states that there have been cases where doctors have put their association with a pharmaceutical company before the good of their patients but, in the vast majority of cases, the exact opposite is true.
From the Paper
"There have been exceptions to the above, where physicians have, in the opinion of their peers, overstepped their boundaries and represented the medical suppliers' interest more than their patients or the value of their science. A recent case, involving Dr. Martin Leon of Columbia, was particularly egregious. Dr. Leon revealed evidence from a clinical trial prior to its 'unveiling' date, which caused a significant movement in the stocks of several medical device companies. The response of the medical community was immediate and severe. Dr. Leon was suspended from editorial boards of the Journal of the American Cardiology Society and the New England Journal of Medicine for at least five years (Wood 2007). Dr. Leon's reputation as a clinical trials clinical investigator and participant was therefore permanently disadvantaged."

The Doctorate of Nursing Practice, 2008.
A discussion of the upcoming addition of doctoral studies to nursing education.
2,435 words (approx. 9.7 pages), 10 sources, APA, AU$ 108.95
»
Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract
This paper takes a look at the implementation of the Practice Doctorate in nursing by the year 2015. The paper asserts that this degree in nursing education is presently in a position to facilitate an extraordinary vision in advanced practice nursing. It holds that due to an increase in service demand, a growth in the complexity of care, ongoing incongruities in health care and changing demographics, there is a charge for health care reformation. The paper refers to several journal writings and commentaries that articulate the importance of health care workers who have better preparation both clinically and educationally. In conclusion, the paper claims that the Doctor of Nursing Practice will provide an elevated bridge between advanced practice nursing and research-based practice and will allow the graduates who matriculate to become empowered and armed with the knowledge base to implement change toward an evolving health care system.
From the Paper
"The growing intricacies of health care, an exuberant growth in scientific knowledge, and increasing advancements in technology have necessitated master's degree programs that prepare advanced practice nurses to expand the number of academic and clinical clock hours significantly. From 1995 to 2000, the average quantity of semester credit hours required for the Nurse Practitioner master's degree remained constant, however, the academic and supervised clinical practice hours increased by 72 and 36 clock hours. Many Nurse Practitioner master's programs now exceed 60 credit hours. Most are not capable of being completed in less than three years time. Based on this information, two challenges are evident. "Master's prepared advanced practice nurses have identified additional knowledge that is required for a higher level of advanced and the time spent in master's level nursing education is not congruent with the degree earned"(Position Statement on the Practice Doctorate in Nursing, 2004 p. 7-8)."

Doctor - Patient Communications, 2005.
This paper discusses the communications between doctor and patient and looks at related problems.
1,125 words (approx. 4.5 pages), 8 sources, AU$ 64.95
»
Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract
This paper focuses on the doctor/patient communication. It speaks of the ideas of the past in relation to this issue and how they have affected modern day medicine. The writer discusses the problems that exist when patients attempt communication with doctors, as well as problems that physicians face when addressing patients' concerns. The writer further offers suggestions for improvement and professional advice for resolving issues.
From the Paper
"Traditionally patients have been accustomed to trusting in the services of doctors, and in accepting only the information given during a consultation. In years past, (especially in the days of the town doctor who made house calls) doctors often provided patients with only the details that the doctor felt the patient needed to know. Specifics of illnesses (mostly terminal cases) were only verbally provided when the doctor decided that it was appropriate to do so. Although patients generally knew that this occurred, it appeared to be acceptable to the general population for many years. This is not to insist that patients demanded medical information. Many patients believed that to query a physician was to disrespect his or her profession. More often than not this resulted in patients needlessly suffering with illnesses that might have been detected if the lines of communication between doctors and patients had been more open."
