The thesis is divided into two parts. In the first part, Mark Rowlands’ Neo-Rawlsianism is outlined and discussed as an application of social contract theory to animal ethics. It is shown that we can make a social contract with animals, and that there is nothing ridiculous about the idea. It is even shown that animals should (in principle) participate in negotiating a social contract (if we make one). Rowlands’ argument for vegetarianism is outlined as an example of how his Neo-Rawlsianism is applied. This argument relies to some extent on the claim that animals are harmed by a painless death, and an attempt is made to support this claim. But it is ultimately argued that Rowlands’ Neo-Rawlsianism falls foul of a reductio ad absurdum that puts it out of contention, thus implying that we should not make a social contract with animals.

Aims: The aim of this study was to investigate the impact of positron-emission tomography (PET) with 18F-labelled fluoro-2- deoxy-D-glucose (FDG) in the management of occult primary head and neck tumours. Materials and methods: We reviewed 16 patients with squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) and one patient with undifferentiated carcinoma of cervical lymph nodes (N1-4; N2a-9; N2b-2; N3-2). All patients had full clinical assessment, including examination under anaesthesia (EUA), with biopsy of all suspicious areas and random biopsies of sites likely to harbour an occult primary site. Nine patients underwent magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the head and neck, three underwent computed tomography (CT) and five underwent both CT and MRI. None of these studies were able to locate a primary tumour. Patients received 350 MBq FDG intravenously. Em...
This paper commences with an overview of trust and mistrust, focusing on the debate about whether these are two ends of a continuum or distinct but interrelated concepts. Building on this review, the relationship between employees’ perceptions of organisational justice and their self categorized feelings of trust and mistrust is considered. It is suggested that organisational justice offers a useful means through which to explain and understand employees’ feelings of trust and mistrust. Using case study data drawn from a United Kingdom public sector organisation, the relationship between employees’ feelings of trust and mistrust is explored within a change context. The data suggest that, while some employees perceive trust and mistrust as two ends of a continuum, others see them as distinct concepts. These findings are conceptualised a...
