Human Rights Constitutionalism in Japan and Asia
Page 1 Human Rights Constitutionalism in Japan and Asia The Writings of Lawrence W. Beer Lawrence Ward Beer was born in Portland, Oregon on May 11, 1932. In 1966 he received the Ph.D. degree from the University of Washington, Seattle. In over fifty years of studying the constitutional law and politics of Japan and other Asian countries, he has written and lectured extensively on human rights law (e.g., Freedom of Expression in Japan, 1984). He taught at the University of Colorado, Boulder, 1966–1982, and was F.M. Kirby Professor of Civil Rights, Lafayette College, 1982–1997. Lawrence W. Beer has chaired the Committee on Asian Law of the Association for Asian Studies and the World Association of Law Professors of the World Peace through Law Center. He received the Distinguished Asianist Award of the Mid-Atlantic Association for Asian Studies in 2003. In retirement, he lives with his wife Keiko in Boulder, Colorado, USA. Less noticed in the West than wars, terrorism and economic trends has been the historic develop- ment since World War II of constitutional government and law in Asia. Lawrence W. Beer has been a close observer of Asian linkages among law, politics, culture, and national security issues for over fifty years. His perspectives have been refined during long residence in Asia, especially Japan, by substantial friendly interactions with Asian legal scholars, judges and attorneys involved in the world of human rights constitutional law. This volume, which will be widely welcomed by students and researchers, brings together a selection of Lawrence W. Beer’s many works previously published in diverse venues, but no longer easily accessible. -

AHRQ Publication No. 19(20)-EHC022-EF October 2019 Key Messages Purpose of review The purpose of this evidence map is to provide a high-level overview of the current guidelines and systematic reviews on pharmacologic and nonpharmacologic treatments for acute pain. We map the evidence for several acute pain conditions including postoperative pain, dental pain, neck pain, back pain, renal colic, acute migraine, and sickle cell crisis. Improved understanding of the interventions studied for each of these acute pain conditions will provide insight on which topics are ready for comprehensive comparative effectiveness review. Key messages • Few systematic reviews provide a comprehensive rigorous assessment of all potential interventions, including nondrug interventions, to treat pain attributable to each acute pain condition. Acute pain conditions that may need a comprehensive systematic review or overview of systematic reviews include postoperative postdischarge pain, acute back pain, acute neck pain, renal colic, and acute migraine. -

Without the communal involvement I wouldn’t have started and submitted this thesis. I thank God All Mighty, the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ. He is big, and I am small. It reminds me of a trip of an elephant and mouse crossing the bridge. After crossing the bridge the mouse commented, “Did you hear how we shake that bridge?” The elephant agreed that they did shake the bridge, while the real shaking was done by the elephant. In this project God is the one that did the real shaking. “Soli Deo Gloria!” My thanks go to my promoter Dr. M.E. Hestenes. He gave me encouragement from the first day. As I keep on writing and rewriting he was reading and rereading with encouraging comments. -

Coping Or Acceptance: What to Do About Chronic Pain?
Pain 105 (2003) 197–204 www.elsevier.com/locate/pain Coping or acceptance: what to do about chronic pain? Lance M. McCracken*, Chris Eccleston Pain Management Unit, Royal National Hospital for Rheumatic Diseases and University of Bath, Bath BA1 1RL, UK Received 9 January 2003; received in revised form 5 March 2003; accepted 5 May 2003 Abstract Research and treatment of chronic pain over the past 20 or more years have tended to focus on patient coping as the primary behavioral contribution to adjustment. The purpose of the present study was to compare a coping approach to chronic pain with a different behavioral approach referred to as acceptance of chronic pain. These approaches were compared in terms of their ability to predict distress and disability in a sample of patients seeking treatment for chronic pain. Subjects were 230 adults assessed at a university pain management center. All patients completed the coping strategies questionnaire and the chronic pain acceptance questionnaire among other standard measures. Results showed that coping variables were relatively weakly related to acceptance of pain and relatively unreliably related to pain adjustment variables. On the other hand, acceptance of chronic pain was associated with less pain, disability, depression and pain-related anxiety, higher daily uptime, and better work status. Regression analyses examined the independent contributions of coping and acceptance to key adjustment indicators in relation to chronic pain. Results from these analyses demonstrated that acceptance of pain repeatedly accounted for more variance than coping variables. q 2003 International Association for the Study of Pain.
