Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The McGill University Magazine, Vol. 1: Dec., 1901 Our statements are not intended to refer to history or literature merely they are equally applicable to science. Personally, we con fess to knowing but little of the work that is being done by the scientific societies of the university; however, an echo of it reaches our ears now and then from our colleagues. We have not the faintest sympathy with scorn of science any more than with scorn of litera ture. The methods of scientific research and of true literary criticism coincide at more points than one; indeed, we quite agree with the modern critic who says that the proposition which seems to stand most in need of assertion at the present moment, is that there is an inductive science of literary criticism. To turn elsewhere, the brilliant discoveries of which Philology can boast have been made by the appli cation of strict scientific method, and by minds in no wise inferior to those regarded with honour by men of science. This is not the place to dwell on these questions, and we may leave them in remarking that some whose pursuits are not now scientific, are thankful for having read in youth John Stuart Mill's statement that no man who did not know one science well could be said to be properly educated. To those whose chief concern is literature, the summary of a paper on some purely scientific matter of general interest ought, if couched in suficiently popular terms, to prove acceptable. Again, the proceed ings of the Medical Society, if they happen to touch on matters that bear on the life of the ordinary citizen as a member of a civic com munity, might very well find a place in our pages. Briefly, we are convinced that there are many undergraduates who would prefer to have the more serious diversions of the undergraduate world recorded.

This book was released on 2017-10-24 with total page 402 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The McGill University Magazine, 1905, Vol. 4 Speaking of universities, there are some questions at least which might very well be discussed by their representatives in conference, questions which bear vitally on the emciency of their teaching, inasmuch as they concern means accessible to the lecturer. Take, for instance, the procuring of new works written by recognized authorities. If such happen to be in French or English and are not of strictly technical character they are submitted to a duty of 10 per cent. Of their value. Could they be bought exempt from duty by professors, they would be procured in many instances, whereas at present the duty is felt to be a burden too heavy to be borne by those whose salaries can scarcely do more than furnish the means of respectable living. It is true that works cited as text-books in the calendar of any university in Canada are admitted without duty, but it would be obviously utterly impossible to make such a regulation apply to the case in point. A protest from any single university weighs lightly with the government for the simple reason that no political force lies behind it, whereas a conjoint protest might be made effective, especially if it were felt that universities were throwing themselves seriously into an endeavour to remove an iniqui tous, if legal, grievance, and were using all the influence that widely scattered and numerous graduates could be made to exert. There is, perhaps, something unacademic in turning to the mere calculation. Of votes and parading it, but that seems to be the only effective method of bringing about a change that would certainly affect the higher edu cation of the country for the better. And then there is the unanswerable argument that the reform suggested has nothing to do with the pub liebere, because the mere attempt to publish large works of an advanced and sometimes abstract character would result in insolvency. If it be claimed that popular or elementary academic literature has to be pro tected by an enactment which bears heavily on a small but highly responsible class, so much the worse for the argument.

The essays focus on well-known publications and introduce those as yet obscure and understudied - including middlebrow and popular magazines, movement-based, radical papers, avant-garde titles and classic Little Magazines. Examining neglected figures and shining new light on familiar ones, the collection enriches our understanding of the role women played in the print culture of this transformative period.Key FeaturesHelps recover neglected women writers and cast new light on canonical onesHighlights the geographical diversity of modern British print cultureEmphasises the interdisciplinary nature of modernism, including essays on modernist dance, music, cinema, drama and architecture Includes a section on social movement periodicals
Download or read book New Public Management in Africa written by Benon C. Basheka and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-08-25 with total page 184 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The administrative sciences have been dominated by a turn to managerial perspectives in the late 20th and early 21st centuries, and in the spirit of this turn, 'New Public Management' (or NPM) promises to produce efficient, responsible and client-oriented public services. The reforms carried out in the pursuit of New Public Management are often accompanied by great optimism and rapid, enthusiastic steps toward implementation. Even in highly developed industrial countries, however, these fundamental reforms often overlook the political and cultural contexts of the implementing country. New Public Management in Africa: Emerging Issues and Lessons provides much-needed theoretical foundations for NPM reforms in the African context and reflects on the success of existing reforms in the development of several African states. The individual contributions in this timely volume provide important analyses of academic discourse, practical policy, achievements, and desiderata. The book as a whole, however, provides a valuable impetus for public administration research in and on African states, sharing findings on the results of reforms to date and adjustments required for these reforms to succeed. For public administration researchers outside of Africa, this book offers a review of New Public Management case studies that are unavailable or difficult to find elsewhere, contributing much to the exchange between African and Western administration science research, and demonstrating that African administrative research is well-prepared to help resolve global challenges.
