Robotic surgery is the method through which a surgeon carries out surgical procedures using a computer distantly controlling very minute instruments linked to the robot. The purpose of this paper is to provide an elaborated insight into the robotic surgery. Since its invention, the technique has been advantageous because it minimizes the movements of the surgeon. For instance, the surgeon will move about a half an inch for each one inch he or she was supposed to move. Besides, this is important in decreasing some of the hand trembles and actions that could otherwise make the process less accurate. In addition, robotic instruments can be able to access regions of the body that are hard-to-reach, very easily and through lesser surgical cuts as compared to outmoded exposed and laparoscopic surgery. This paper discusses several issues surrounding robotic surgery such as historical advancement and framework of the technology, political and lawful influences, economical issues and reflections, psychological contemplations and sociological impacts, moral and virtuous inferences, consequences on the environment and technology in its societal framework.

In “Plato’s Republic” book one, Socrates argues against Thrasymachus’s argument, “justice is the advantage to the stronger”. Thrasymachus’ claim was that full injustice is more beneficial than full justice is because it enables the unjust obtain enough. He claims that unjust individuals are always prudent and good. His claim on the just individuals is that they are naive and stupid. In his characterization of the just individuals, Thrasymachus uses three claims.

Detroit was first settled by the French in the seventeenth century, who gave it its name. The city has undergone many transformations over the centuries as it developed from a small French fur trapping settlement into first the Paris of the West, and then into a booming metropolitan center that dominated the automobile industry. Over the years Detroit has been the home of many championship sports teams, host to important cultural events, and is the location of a number of beautiful and historically significant buildings. The city has been going through dramatic changes in the last several decades. It is no longer considered the Paris of the West; it is now considered one of the worst places to live in America. “Detroit is America’s most dangerous city, with 1,220 violent crimes per 100,000 people, according to violent crime statistics from the FBI’s uniform crime report, issued in 2008. Detroit or Motown, also boasts the highest foreclosure and unemployment rates in the country” (In, 1). People are leaving Detroit to find a safer place to live and better chances of employment.

This paper intends to address the importance of having a well written and enforceable information technology security policy. Continue reading →

My bioregional are is Chile. It is an area whose landscape consists of valleys and flat regions. It is a tropical area, experiences scarce rainfall. The area has arid, semiarid areas and the Atacama Desert. The area also has the Pacific coast ridges that are frequently covered in fog, which is caused by low decks of marine stratocumulus blown by the wind onshore. The area experiences shortage of water, which is caused by low levels of rainfall. The situation is made worse by the water code of 1981, which issues water rights to individuals. These means that an individual has access to water which they have rights to (Budds, 4). This mainly consists of the large scale commercial farmers, who have political connections enabling them to acquire water rights even in areas occupied by the peasant farmers. Politicization of access to water rights has led to the decline in the availability of water for peasant farmers. Similarly, large scale commercial farmers contribute to the inadequate water as they use pipes to divert water to their farmers for irrigation. Another issue that affects the availability of water is low temperatures, which leads to the low levels of rainfall and hence low water levels in wells and rivers (Garreaud, 193). Continue reading →
