Abstract Silvestri interviews McCloskey about her forthcoming book, ‘Beyond Behaviorism, Positivism, and Neo-Institutionalism in Economics’, critical of recent economics, especially neo-institutionalism. Neo-institutionalism uses the ugly character ‘Herr Max U’ as its central idea: elevation Prudence to only virtue. Institutions are mainly intermediate, not ultimate, causes society. Ethics, rhe...

A multidominance (MD) structure is a structure where at least one node has more than one mother node. Sentences that involve Right-Node Raising (RNR), like (1), have been proposed to have an MD representation in (2), where the object DP an article on Barack Obama is simultaneously dominated by two mother nodes: VP1 and VP2 (Bachrach and Katzir 2006; Levine 1985; McCawley 1982; McCloskey 1986; M...

medical practice. Ultrasonography can confirm endotracheal intubation, assess vocal cord function, detect endobronchial intubation and diagnose pneumothorax. We present a novel use of real time ultrasound to guide tracheal intubation in a series of 25 children. This new technique is called Ultrasound Guided Tracheal Intubation (UGTI). It is kinesthetically similar to the lighted stylet techniqu...

Young agricultural economists learn about publishing in a variety of ways, often by trial and error. McCloskey (p. 188) argues that, even though many veteran authors could help younger professionals with their writing, they rarely do. A widely available set of guidelines could help young authors improve their success rate and reduce wasted effort. The purpose of this paper is to meet this need ...

In this paper Robert Leeson offers what he calls a ‘dynamic framework’ for policy analysis. He uses the term ‘dynamic’ not in any technical sense but, in a sense akin to what McCloskey (1994) called the ‘rhetoric of economics’ – the battle for the hearts and minds of fellow economists and policy-makers. We are introduced to a world of cynical, campaigning and revolutionary scholars, who study s...

A patient undergoing left ventricular assist had a complicated post-operative course due to a patent foramen ovale. This presented as a right to left shunt with desaturation of the arterial blood, and possibly contributed to paradoxical embolization resulting in neurological complications and death. A method is presented to determine the presence of a patent foramen ovale during left ventricula...
