Arts and crafts is cactus : the collection since 1945
\"The terms 'arts and crafts' poses as many questions as there are preconceived opinions about it. It is associated with individuality, uniqueness, a multi-perspectival nature, decorative potential, artistic quality and a high experiential value. This publication examines the developments in arts and crafts from the second half of the twentieth century, as exemplified by the collection of the Museum Angewandte Kunst. Scale reproductions of plates, furniture, cutlery, jewellery and vases highlight their surprising variegation in form. In their essays, the nine authors take diverse approaches to the broad terrain of arts and crafts: from the relationship between East Asia and Western ceramics, via the handicrafts of the Romantic period to the adventure that is arts and crafts\"--Back cover.

When a study doesn’t show what you hoped for
One of the arguments often made for eliminating (or at least reducing) the length of time admitted patients spend in the ED waiting for an inpatient bed is that these ‘boarded’ patients are likely, among other undesirable outcomes, to have longer hospital lengths of stay. Longer lengths of stay mean fewer patients coming in and out, and this can threaten bottom lines, waiting lists, and targets. [...]one may read the article by Lane and colleagues1 with high hopes for additional evidence on the harms of boarding psychiatric patients. Lane et al allude to this in their discussion pointing out that ‘The small absolute effect may be a positive sign of the resilience of healthcare providers finding ways to initiate treatment for patients with acute psychiatric illnesses whey they are boarded in the ED.’

Are we preaching to the choir? Where should studies on frequent users of EDs be published?
The COVID-19 pandemic has surely demonstrated that the capacity of EDs to handle surges of patients is a concern for all members of the healthcare community: the multifactorial causes of frequent use, most of which are outside the realm of the ED, need to be concertedly addressed by those who are in the best position to do so. [...]we call on journals in all fields, and particularly those few ‘general medical’ journals remaining, to look beyond the keywords (and the myths) to recognise when the implications of a study suggest that the proper audience is their own readership. Analysis of costs, length of stay, and utilization of emergency department services by frequent users: implications for health policy. Frequent attenders to an emergency department: a study of primary health care use, medical profile, and psychosocial characteristics.
