Uri Margolin’s assertion that “an individual's appearance, gestures, mannerism, dress, and natural and human-made environment are indicators for inferences about his or her mental and moral features” essentially claims that readers pick up on who a character is through their outside features as described in the prose (2012, p. 77). However, this assertion ignores the possibility of contrasts, societal pressures, and other factors that can provide needed context for further understanding of their true character. Tess in Tess of the d’Urburvilles, for instance, is a quintessential contradiction – somewhere between rich and poor, sophisticated and simple, strong and weak, etc. While ...

Interview Techniques

Introduction Law enforcement officers use interviews and interrogations to get information from criminal suspects. The two aspects of communication are important in deriving needed information. The two techniques are may be different in a number of ways. Interrogations are characterized by verbal aggressiveness while interviews engage a non-aggressive dialogue. Both the parties in an interview contribute to the conversation without prejudice. However, it seems that, in an interrogation, the verdict is already determined before the questioning begins. Sometimes officers engage in unorthodox tactics of eliciting information from suspects. Concerns have been raised about officers bullying suspects during interrogations. Interrogations may ...

Annotated Bibliography on Boullee’

Boullée & visionary architecture ed. Helen Rosenau, Pub. Harmony Books, New York, 1976 ISBN 0-85670-157-2.

Abstract

Biology has occupied a place of honor in the forensic laboratories, and such an easy task as a personal identification is now impossible without the usage of methods of this science. This research is focused on the most promising direction of forensics – the evidence of identification on DNA analysis results. This method is a revolutionary one, preceded by fingerprinting, but much more accurate and correct. Unless it needs a small amount of any tissue with a cell, the DNA analysis is a complicated process because even a small laboratory error may put an unguilty person into prison as it was many years ago before the discovery ...

Peter A. Facione talks about a basic definition of critical thinking. “At one level we all know what “critical thinking” means – it means good thinking, almost the opposite of illogical, irrational thinking” (Peter A. Facione). Developing from this definition we may say that critical thinking is a logical and rational way of thinking. It is what every human being should strive to. However, this is not a full definition of the term as it may relate to other terms as well; for example, creative thinking. Critical thinking is more than just logical. It is a way to solve problems, to find solutions and ...
