Early studies of health information system failures identified the central role of the human, social and organizational contexts in which information systems operate. They set the challenge for researchers to understand how to obtain the best fit between the technical systems (e.g. the information systems and associated work practices) and the social systems (e.g. organizational culture, social practices and behaviors, and political milieu), resulting in a socio-technical approach towards health information systems. It has been six years since the first conference and the quality of the resear

"When my mother died, my father let his yard go to rack and ruin. Two years later he picked up a shovel to remove a climbing rose that had died with Mom and had been an anniversary gift Mom and Dad gave each other. To his surprise, he found a single leaf on the barren stem, and so he let it be. It soon flourished again and he was amazed to find a single rose growing out of the heart of another rose." Graffiti on My Soul is a memoir by Johanna, a retired clinical psychologist. It is a touching portrait of a Canadian mother of five, who at age 17, became a nun. Born on the cusp of World War I

Through the analysis of narratives, paintings and objets surrealistes by Breton, Aragon, Dali, and others, Malt examines how the object emerges as psychologically and historically marked in the surrealist context, functioning as both fetish and fetishized commodity. Responding to recent debates about the role of the uncanny and the representation of the body in surrealist art and literature, Malt’s study offers new perspectives on familiar works such as the paintings of Salvador Dali as well as illuminating relatively neglected ones such as Breton’s poemes-objets.
