SUMMARY:STAT303Lect: Karen Thornber
DESCRIPTION:Literature and Health: Statistics, Stigmas, StrugglesKaren Thornber, Professor and Chair of the Department of Comparative Literature, Professor of East Asian Languages and Civilizations"Drawing from my current book project - Global World Literature and Health: Moderating Expectations, Generating Possibilities - I explore in this presentation some ways in which literature from Asia, Africa, and the Americas has grappled with the fraught relationships societies have had with the data surrounding disease, everything from ignoring data when embracing it would alleviate suffering, and embracing data when putting it into greater perspective would alleviate suffering."Here is more information on STAT 303, The Art and Practice of Teaching Statistics.
