  • 'The Double Game: the Demise of America's First Missile Defense System and the Rise of Strategic Arms Limitation'
    H-War Allison on Cameron, 'The Double Game: The Demise of America's First Missile Defense System and the Rise of Strategic Arms Limitation' Review published on Thursday, January 24, 2019 James Cameron. The Double Game: The Demise of America's First Missile Defense System and the Rise of Strategic Arms Limitation. New York: Oxford University Press, 2017. 248 pp. $74.00 (cloth), ISBN 978-0-19-045992-5. Reviewed by Rusty Allison (Air University, Air War College) Published on H-War (January, 2019) Commissioned by Margaret Sankey (Air War College) Printable Version: http://www.h-net.org/reviews/showpdf.php?id=53591 The Cold War ended twenty-seven years ago, but the scars of nuclear brinksmanship are tattooed across the fabric of the American plains and etched in the minds of the American psyche. Despite the 1991 collapse of the Soviet Union, the United States still retains an enormous arsenal of nuclear weapons—an arsenal that has parity with Russia—capable of annihilating cities and civilizations. The massive arsenal of today in many ways stems from the fall of America’s first ballistic missile defense (BMD) system that refocused attention away from survival of a nuclear attack toward strategic arms limitations and acceptance of mutually assured destruction (MAD). In essence, it was BMD that transferred an ill-fated feeling of security for the American population to a geopolitical bargaining chip to arrest the rise of Soviet nuclear weapons capability. America’s first missile defense system may serve as a Cold War relic, but it should inform policymakers of the domestic and foreign tensions and implications as they seek to develop a coherent, executable nuclear strategy.

    PHILOSOPHY/POP CULTURE IRWIN Is being nice overrated? Are we really just selfi sh, base animals crawling HOUSE across Earth in a meaningless existence? Would reading less and watching more television be good for you? Is House a master of Eastern philosophy or just plain rude? Dr. Gregory House is arguably the most complex and challenging antihero in the history of television, but is there more to this self-important genius than AND gray matter and ego? This book takes a deeper look at House to reveal the PHILOSOPHY philosophical underpinnings of this popular medical drama and its cane-waving curmudgeon’s most outrageous behavior. What emerges is a remarkable character who is part Sherlock Holmes, part Socratic philosopher, part Nietzschean superman, part Taoist rhetorician, and not at all as screwed up as you might think. With everything from Aristotle to Zen, House and Philosophy takes an engaging look at everyone’s favorite misanthropic genius and his team at Princeton-Plainsboro Hospital.

  • (In)Visibility of Intersexuality in House, MD
    “The Ultimate Woman Is a Man”: An Analysis of Medical Authority and the (In)Visibility of Intersexuality in House, M.D. Simon Daniel Whybrew Marburg, Germany Abstract: The medical drama House, M.D. has been the subject of numerous publications and has even been used to teach medicine to university students. This paper asserts that the discourses of medical authenticity that surround House, M.D. impart an aura of medical authority to the show that is further enhanced by its performative enactment of medical professionalism. As a result of this, the series is shown to be emboldened with the discursive power of modern biomedicine. Accordingly, this paper argues that the depiction of intersex people as a socially marginalized and medically stigmatized group gains special significance, as the show has the power to either reaffirm or challenge their marginalized status, and, along with that, the underlying heteronormative gender system. Hence, this paper utilizes the concept of heteronormativity in conjunction with Judith Butler’s conception of gender performativity and Michel Foucault’s theory of the medical gaze to analyze the portrayal of intersexuality in the episode “Skin Deep.” The paper demonstrates that rather than unfolding the deconstructive potential of intersexuality, the show reinforces heteronormative standards as it represents intersexuality as a pathological aberration. he immensely popular medical drama House, M.D. has not only attracted considerable critical attention during the course of its eight-year run from T2004 to 2012 but has also been the subject of numerous publications regarding its medical accuracy. Interestingly, it has even been used to teach medicine to university students (“Neues”).
