The Reluctant Hero 46 T V R e v i e w Dr Oh Jen Jen, Editorial Board Member The Reluctant Hero “Treating illnesses is why we became doctors. Treating patients is what makes most doctors miserable.” Certainly, there is no one-size-fits-all remedy for pain therapy and prevention, even for a single type of pain. eet Dr Gregory House: self-proclaimed “9 times out of 10 there’s no reason to “bored, certified diagnostician”, talk to a patient,” he declares. When M unwitting poster boy of pain asked “How can you treat someone (physical/emotional/professional), and without without seeing him?”, he calmly replies, a doubt, the most beloved doctor ever to hit the “It’s easy if you don’t get crap about it.” small screen. His surliness and sarcasm mirror great predecessors like Jeffrey Geiger (Chicago Rounds are conducted in his office, Hope), Peter Benton (ER) and Perry Cox (Scrubs); symptoms and differential diagnoses scribbled characters who raged and railed at injustice and on a white board, treatments discussed then authority, yet won unanimous respect from all dispensed by his team of residents (who, corners with their brilliance. ironically, are his polar opposites where bedside House, however, takes the Art of manners are concerned).

Title: A Different Kind of Fatigue: A Cross-cultural Analysis of the Etiology of Burnout in Medical Literature Abstract approved: _____________________________________________________ Raymond Malewitz The rate of physician dissatisfaction is steadily rising. Between 2011 and 2012, the number of physicians that would not choose a career in medicine if given the opportunity to decide again increased by 15% (Adams). This discontentment has major repercussions in the midst of the rising need for physicians: it is estimated that by 2025, there will be a physician deficit of 90,000 (Bernstein). One reason for the increasing dissatisfaction is burnout, which physician Richard Gunderman defines as “emotional exhaustion, depersonalization, and a diminished sense of accomplishment.” Although Gunderman identifies the etiology of dissatisfaction, he fails to characterize burnout and explain where and why this phenomenon occurs. In this paper, I use Raymond Williams’ theory on “structures of feeling” as a lens to identify the characteristics and etiology of burnout.

  • Convenient Fictions
    CONVENIENT FICTIONS: THE SCRIPT OF LESBIAN DESIRE IN THE POST-ELLEN ERA. A NEW ZEALAND PERSPECTIVE By Alison Julie Hopkins A thesis submitted to Victoria University of Wellington in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Victoria University of Wellington 2009 Acknowledgements I would like to acknowledge those people who have supported me in my endeavour to complete this thesis. In particular, I would like to thank Dr Alison Laurie and Dr Lesley Hall, for their guidance and expertise, and Dr Tony Schirato for his insights, all of which were instrumental in the completion of my study. I would also like to express my gratitude to all of those people who participated in the research, in particular Mark Pope, facilitator of the ‘School’s Out’ programme, the staff at LAGANZ, and the staff at the photographic archive of The Alexander Turnbull Library. I would also like to acknowledge the support of The Chief Censor, Bill Hastings, and The Office of Film and Literature Classification, throughout this study. Finally, I would like to thank my most ardent supporters, Virginia, Darcy, and Mo. ii Abstract Little has been published about the ascending trajectory of lesbian characters in prime-time television texts. Rarer still are analyses of lesbian fictions on New Zealand television. This study offers a robust and critical interrogation of Sapphic expression found in the New Zealand television landscape. More specifically, this thesis analyses fictional lesbian representation found in New Zealand’s prime-time, free-to-air television environment. It argues that television’s script of lesbian desire is more about illusion than inclusion, and that lesbian representation is a misnomer, both qualitatively and quantitively.
