Contrary to Somerville’s prediction, the art of television has proven to be able to stand the test of time, achieving this by spawning channels, networks, movies, and actors. This extremely brief list does not even begin to scratch the surface of the prolific world that television has created since ...

Xenophon, one of Socrates' students, is arguably one of the most pragmatic scholars ever.

In his book Cyropaedia “The Education of Cyrus”, Xenophon gives an account of an imaginary life of Cyrus the great. Though the book does not give accurate information about the real life of Cyrus the great, it helps inform various qualities that ...

The theory of operant conditioning created by behaviorist B.F. Skinner explains that a behavior can be understood by looking at the external apparent causes of an action and the related consequences resulting from that action.

Reinforcement is of four types - positive reinforcement, negative reinforcement, punishment and extinction. According to Skinner, behavior can be reinforced through rewards and punishment.

Comparison of two poems, “The Indian to His Love” and “The Hosting of the Sidhe”, written by the same poet.

Introduction
“The Indian to His Love” demonstrates an appealing movement that makes the poem to appear unexciting and lifeless as compared to the highly exciting atmosphere that is created by the poem “The Hosting of the Sidhe.” The two poems by William Yeats are completely different. For each poem, Yeats views the world from different perspectives. This therefore makes it impossible for the poet to successfully deal with the theme in “The Indian to His Love” in the same manner as in “The Hosting of the Sidhe".
The relationship between the characters of the two poems is ...

The 1950’s in America were a tumultuous time, and McCullers could clearly feel the tension and strain of the changing societal tides when he wrote “The Jockey.” “The Jockey” tells the story of three characters: first, Bitsy Barlow, the titular jockey, but also Sylvester the trainer, Simmons the bookie, and finally, the “rich man” who funds the horse racing outfit. The interactions between these four characters are very symbolic, and are demonstrative of the divide between the ...

Answer for no. 1: Attempting to change the behavior of your friends

The problem has become more apparent with the increase of natural disasters like hurricanes, tornados, and earthquakes. Images of polar bears trapped on tiny ice caps show us that the large glaciers that used to be in the arctic and Antarctic areas are melting. Though some people ...

A Critical Analysis of the Social Work Intervention Process

The term ‘empowerment’ is one which is used to designate the idea of giving control to an individual: if someone feels empowered, it means that they feel as though they can do something.

Put succinctly, the empowerment process is “the process by which individuals and groups gain power, access to resources and control over their own lives. In doing so, they gain the ability to ...
