Streips, Ph.D. Editor-in-Chief Hello all JIAMSE readers! We are now in the second issue of volume 19 of the Journal. As we have started this year, all publications are represented in this issue. I hope the information will be useful for you at your school and in the job you do. I always pick up something I can do better in the course I direct from reading the material submitted to JIAMSE. I urge you all to think about educational research. Many medical schools are utilizing educators extensively, whose tenure and promotion depends on a portfolio of publication and presentation. Our journal review system is very user-friendly and lots of help is available for the authors from our tireless editorial board. Our production editor, Marshall Anderson, is also superb and your work will be published in the best format possible. All our published material, including Letters to the Editor is peer- reviewed thoroughly. So, I wish you all good reading, good application of the ideas you read about, and I look forward to the manuscripts you will be sending my way. Uldis N. Streips, Ph.D. Editor-in-Chief JIAMSE © IAMSE 2009 Volume 19 2 35 LETTER TO THE EDITOR Response to “Between God and Man: A Student’s Dilemma” Edward C. Halperin, M.D, M.A. Dean University of Louisville School of Medicine Louisville, KY 40292 USA Phone: (+)1-502-852-1499 Fax: (+)1- Email: [email protected] There are multiple interesting ways where religion and medicine intersect. These range from the role of faith traditions in medical decision-making, theological medical ethics, randomized clinical trials of intercessory prayer, and the religious needs of healthcare providers and students. The case before us concerns accommodation and advocating for a Muslim medical student who seeks to observe his faith traditions including religious holidays, fasts, and daily prayer. In my opinion, it is important for medical students to learn to address problems such as the one described in “Between God and Man” in a thoughtful and respectful fashion. To this end, we have created a new mandatory course for second-year medical students at the University of Louisville entitled “At the Intersection of Religion and Medicine.” Through case presentations, panel discussions, and correlative readings, we address issues such as the one raised in this case. There are, of course, many examples of the “student’s dilemma” beyond that of the Muslim student. These include observant Jewish students who wish to wear a skull cap, the wearing of head coverings by Muslim female medical students, practical difficulties related to the desire of Muslim or Jewish students to have Halal or Kosher food, the need of students of various faith traditions to observe their religious holidays (the differing dates for Christmas, for example, between the Roman Catholic and Protestant traditions and the Eastern Orthodox traditions). One must, or course, be respectful of the diverse faith traditions of medical students. Ultimately, however, our young Muslim student will come to appreciate the primacy of the patient’s needs and will have to adapt his faith observation to patient care. In the same way that some religious-based hospitals have sought in the past to attract house officers by accommodating their religious needs, I think it is very likely as the United States becomes an increasingly diverse society that we will see internship and residency programs designed to meet the needs of the observant Muslim student. JIAMSE © IAMSE 2009 Volume 19 2 36 The Medical Educator’s Resource Guide John R. Cotter, Ph.D. This issue of the Medical Educator’s Resource Guide introduces us to websites concerned with embryology, the inner ear, radiology and eponyms. Besides providing mini lessons on several aspects of embryological development, the developer of Human Embryology Animations, Dr. Valerie O’Loughlin, uses pre- and posts-tests to measure learning and a survey to evaluate the effectiveness of the instructional content and the animations used in the lessons. Participation in the practice tests, the post-tests and the survey is entirely anonymous and not required by the author. It should be noted that the use of Lieberman’s eRadiology is strictly limited by the terms and conditions set forth by the author. The restrictions serve as a reminder that a website cannot always be used freely even when the user only wishes to use the site or some aspect of the site for educational purposes. The intent of Who Named It? is to provide background information on the men and women in science and medicine for which diseases, anatomical structures, tests and so on are named. Thus far, the website reports having over eight thousand eponyms, and with time, the number of entries is expected to nearly double. Dr. Dennis Freeman has produced an outstanding and Human Embryology Animations.

    THE ROMANCE OF BIBLE CHRONOLOGY Rev. Martin Anstey, BA, MA An Exposition of the Meaning, and a Demonstration of the Truth, of Every Chronological Statement Contained in the Hebrew Text of the Old Testament Marshall Brothers, Ltd., London, Edinburgh and New York 1913. DEDICATION To my dear Friend Rev. G. Campbell Morgan, D.D. to whose inspiring Lectures on “The Divine Library in Human History” I trace the inception of these pages, and whose intimate knowledge and unrivalled exposition of the Written Word makes audible in human ears the Living Voice of the Living God, I dedicate this book. The Author October 3rd, 1913 FOREWORD BY REV. G. CAMPBELL MORGAN, D. D. It is with pleasure, and yet with reluctance, that I have consented to preface this book with any words of mine. The reluctance is due to the fact that the work is so lucidly done, that any setting forth of the method or purpose by way of introduction would be a work of supererogation. The pleasure results from the fact that the book is the outcome of our survey of the Historic move- ment in the redeeming activity of God as seen in the Old Testament, in the Westminster Bible School. While I was giving lectures on that subject, it was my good fortune to have the co—operation of Mr. Mar- tin Anstey, in a series of lectures on these dates. My work was that of sweeping over large areas, and largely ignoring dates. He gave his attention to these, and the result is the present volume, which is in- valuable to the Bible Teacher, on account of its completeness and detailed accuracy.

Powell III, Jamie Beavers, and Emmanuelle Monte Arkansas State University A rank-ordered list was constructed that reports the first 99 of the 100 most eminent psychologists of the 20th century. Eminence was measured by scores on 3 quantitative variables and 3 qualitative variables. The quantitative variables were journal citation frequency, introductory psychology textbook citation frequency, and survey response frequency. The qualitative variables were National Academy of Sciences membership, election as American Psychological Association (APA) president or receipt of the APA Distinguished Scientific Contributions Award, and surname used as an eponym. The qualitative variables were quantified and combined with the other 3 quantitative variables to produce a composite score that was then used to construct a rank-ordered list of the most eminent psychologists of the 20th century.

    YOUR BROTHERS, THE CHILDREN OF ISRAEL: ANCIENT NEAR EASTERN POLITICAL DISCCOURSE AND THE PROCESS OF BIBLICAL COMPOSITION A Dissertation Presented to the Faculty of the Graduate School of Cornell University In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy by Dustin Dale Nash January 2015 © 2015 Dustin Dale Nash YOUR BROTHERS, THE CHILDREN OF ISRAEL: ANCIENT NEAR EASTERN POLITICAL DISCOURSE AND THE PROCESS OF BIBLICAL COMPOSITION Dustin Dale Nash, Ph. D. Cornell University 2015 The Hebrew Bible contains seventeen isolated passages, scattered from Genesis to 2 brother”) to define an inter-group“) אח Samuel, that use the Hebrew term relationship between two or more Israelite tribes. For over a century, biblical scholars have interpreted this terminology as conceptually dependent on the birth narratives and genealogies of Gen 29-50, reiterated in stories and lists elsewhere in the biblical corpus. However, examination of the Bible’s depiction of the Israelite tribes as “brothers” outside these seventeen passages indicates that the static genealogical structure of the twelve-tribe system constitutes a late ideological framework that harmonizes dissonant descriptions of Israel as an association of “brother” tribes. Significantly, references to particular tribal groups as “brothers” in the Mari archives yields a new paradigm for understanding the origins of Israelite tribal “brotherhood” that sets aside this ideological structure. Additionally, it reveals the ways in which biblical scribes exploited particular terms and ideas as the fulcrums for editorial intervention in the Hebrew Bible’s composition. More specifically, close analysis of these Akkadian texts reveals the existence of an ancient Near Eastern political discourse of “brotherhood” that identified tribal groups as independent peer polities, bound together through obligations of reciprocal peaceful relations and supportive behavior.

DESCRIPTORS Class Activities; *Diachronic Linguistics; Elementary Education; *English; *Etymology; Language Patterns; Linguistic Borrowing; Linguistics; Orthographic Symbols; teaching Methods; Theory Practice Relationship ABSTRACT acknowledging that to study the development of a language is to study the history and culture of people and that English has been influenced by many geographic, political, economic, social, and linguistic forces, this booklet provides a ready reference for elementary and middle school/junior high school teachers confronted with students' questions about the characteristics of the language they speak and are learning to read and write. Since most questions are directed toward words and their spellings, the first section of the booklet emphasizes selected historical aspects of vocabulary growth and orthographic change. The second section of the booklet peesents exercises designed a-ound actual student questions, providing not only initial suggestions for vocabulary study activities, but also a rationale for the incongruities of English with an eye toward putting modern usage into a historical perspective.
