For too long, animals that are non-humans have not been accorded the dignity they deserve. The practice is wrong because, chimpanzees do have unique qualities that are essential to the world, if not the society. Take the case of chimpanzees, for instance.

What many people fail to understand is that chimpanzees have emotions, consciousness, abstract thought and political behaviour. Humans are treated with dignity and respect because of more or less the same qualities and, therefore, the same ...

In William Shakespeare’s play King Lear, the relationships between King Lear and his three daughters play a critical role in the events of the play.

The manifestation of Josephine’s attitude is a lack of trust. She is self-sheltered, comfortable in her own company. And she is apathetic, unresponsive to the humanness of others. The natural way to treat this is by inviting her to get-togethers but it is highly unlikely she will commit to them—and may possibly be overwhelmed by it, and so, disappear. Smaller parties will be necessary, talking specifically to her is necessary. This way, Josephine being present for gatherings will not be missed, and she will feel empowered. The only way to unpeel Josephine’s lack of expression is to ...

Female sexual problem is one of the most challenging topics for health care providers as the patient may feel discomfort in discussing the topic or misattribute sexual dysfunction to depression (Nurnberg, Hensley, Lauriello, Parker, & Keith, 1999).

It's kind of like that outsider plant in the Little Shop of Horrors - it simply needs to develop, and it says, "Food me, bolster me." Every enterprise has one reason, and that is to give esteem and ...
