The paper describes and illustrates the potential of using pictorial artistic images in supporting teaching scientific concepts and the nature of science. In the first part, the case of Giotto’s fresco of stigmatization of St. Francis is described within the interpretation of relationship between the figures as between an object and its mirror image. Educational implications of this case study are suggested. The second part presents several pictorial images that can be used in classroom teaching of science for facilitation of hermeneutic discussion in science classes addressing the nature of scientific knowledge changed in the course of history.

Microfinance: A tool for financial access, poverty alleviation or gender empowerment? -- Empirical findings from Pakistan

Microfinance institutions have acquired experience operating certain types of insurance (Balkenhol and Churchill, chapter 4, this volume). Often, microfinance lenders sell life or crop insurance as security for loans in lieu of traditional collateral. Such an arrangement, making the lender both beneficiary and insurer, protects the lender instead of the insured. The basic difference between this type of insurance and health insurance is in the definition of beneficiary or principal. Because health insurance is not a necessary condition for access to credit or other resources, the agent cannot easily impose affiliation on its principals. For that reason, the principal-agent relationship in health insurance is significantly different from the relationship under other forms of community-level insurance. This chapter deals only with community-funded health insurance.
