Redline 05/12/2008 http://videos.med.wisc.edu/videoInfo.php?videoid=2999 Listen to Casey Nagy read from and discuss his book, <i>Imagined Glories</i>. About the Book: Public order in rural, politically divided Port Townsend, Washington, has been shattered by a series of bombings made to appear as though Native American activists are responsible. Henry Ivers, an aging county sheriff already struggling with family and professional challenges, soon finds himself thrust into escalating ethnic and retaliatory violence. <i>Imagined Glories</i> realistically demonstrates the power of an ordinary man's triumphant spirit through hope and perseverance as he overcomes anguish and loss.

Towbin 05/08/2008 http://videos.med.wisc.edu/videoInfo.php?videoid=2842 In 1990, Dr. Linnea Smith began practicing medicine in Peru, on the edge of the Amazon River, and she continues to work there caring for the local people. She talks of life in the rainforest, the evolution of her small clinic and the challenges of attempting to provide medical care in an area lacking basic services, let alone advanced medical technology.

Joe 05/02/2008 http://videos.med.wisc.edu/videoInfo.php?videoid=2478 Concerns about the safety and quality of health care have created the 'patient safety movement' and led to a wide variety of activity. Although many may not have realized it, there is a great debate about the best strategy for effecting improvement that carries over into debates about the quality of 'evidence' and what constitutes scientific activity. This debate is rooted in underlying and often unrecognized differences in the philosophies of science and additionally is divided along social and professional lines, with healthcare researchers tending to assuming one side, and human factors professionals taking the other. We will explore these competing approaches, using the problems associated with handoffs in clinical work as an exemplar. Presented by R.
