In the ‘olden days’ many medical journals did not include abbreviations in the abstracts of the reports they published. That ceased to be the case decades ago, but inexplicably a huge number of journals’ ‘Instructions for Authors’ still include an erroneous directive instructing authors that abbreviations are not permitted in abstracts. All of these journals do now include abbreviations in the abstracts they publish—and have done for years—in blatant contradiction of their own directive in this regard. The people most adversely affected by this blatantly contradictory yet easily rectifiable situation are confused prospective non-native English speaking authors, and the ‘pre-submission’ manuscript editors they are now actively advised to engage the services of by these very same journals prior to submission. In my capacity as one such freelance medical manuscript editor I recently contacted many of these journals via the relevant email addresses indicated on their websites urging them to address this situation. With the exception of the staff of one single journal who to their great credit corrected the problem almost immediately, the silence was deafening.

This brief and unpretentiously written text has as it s main propose to warn on occurrence of new trends within recent croatian administrative science. It´ s a fact that ever more female colleuge on Cathedra of administrative sciences of Faculty of Law University of Zagreb emerged as employees in scientific-educational vocation, which was once predominantly „male“ discipline. Therefore, their autoritative and professional engagement in each aspect oft he discipline should be welcomed, from substantially traditional aspects to efforts on opening new thematic areas. Especially great credit of female teachers of administrative science lies in process of europeization of croatian public administration and their endeavour to point out deficiencies in actual state and recomendations for their avoidance. In this way croatian administrative science catches connection on contemporary processes, within discipline in european context. With it´ s width and coverage of themes, both ancient and new ones Croatian administrative science testifies it´ s vitality and displays it can handle with corpus of positive law discipline et least on equall level

The late Patricia Crone (d. 2015) was one of the most provocative scholars ofearly Islam. She is infamous for Hagarism: The Making of the Islamic World(1977), which she co-authored with Michael Cook. That she has disavowedsome of its more skeptical conclusions may surprise many of her fiercest critics,as well as those revisionists who still invoke them. This current volume,however, demonstrates that while she has not disavowed any of her skepticalapproaches to the study of this field, to her great credit she remained open torevising her views as new evidence presented itself. Reprints comprise mostof this volume, although two chapters have not previously been published.Even the reprints, however, were selected, arranged, and in some cases revisedby Crone herself. All of the articles are tied together by subject matter and methodology.They focus on the mushrikūn (lit. associators), whom she calls “Qur’ānic pagans,”and for the most part seeks to reconstruct their religion, particularlyduring the Makkan period. She takes as her point of departure G. R. Hawting’sThe Idea of Idolatry and the Emergence of Islam (1999), which argues thatthe mushrikūn were monotheists and not idolaters (another common translationof the term). In hoping to show that he was mistaken, Crone was promptedto read the Qur’an systematically and, in so doing, discovered that these peoplewere not the pagans depicted in the Hadith, sīrah, tafsīr, or Ibn al-Kalbi’sBook of Idols ...

AbstractThis article considers the late Georgian church and argues that this huge group of buildings, involving almost all the country's major architects, has never been properly assessed by historians. This is principally a result of the opprobrium heaped on these churches by the Ecclesiologists who needed them to be marginalised in order to promote their own agenda of church design and worship, and the view that they are largely worthless lives on in places, even today. The article proposes their re-evaluation, suggesting that judging them by the standards the Ecclesiologists applied retrospectively is both illogical and inevitably destined to produce verdicts of failure. Instead, it seeks to place these buildings within the context of late Georgian society, religious attitudes and especially the period's building world. It argues that the best of them, especially the big ‘town’ churches, display a high degree of intelligent, functional planning and a fascinating exploitation of new materials and structural innovations that do great credit to their designers.
