This textbook is an outstanding addition to the world of Alternative Medicine in general and the world of acupuncture in particular. The acupuncture Microsystems have proven to be some of the most sophisticated tools used in acupuncture today. The hand acupuncture microsystem was introduced in the 1970s and has since gained wide popularity as an effective approach to pain and to other medical problems. While Koryo Hand Acupuncture (KHT) has presented practitioners with a simple somatotopy of the body organs and structures, this textbook presents the discovery of additional projections of the body organs and structures. This textbook provides a comprehensive comprehension to the inherit sophistication of the hand acupuncture microsystem. The three-phase system offers a new paradigm for understanding the patho-physiology of the living system.  This new discovery will provide exciting and sophisticated ways to deal with all aspects of the pathology regardless of the duration and the intensity.

This is the first book (2 in 1) for me. The book has a section in the back explaining the disease in a simple way to the great grandchild.  It can work for any small child with questions about a person with Alzheimer's.

This book is about a modern day subject, a growing disease called Alzheimer's.  There are 4.5 million people with this disease now and it is growing rapidly.

A lot of people have had to learn about this sad disease the hard way as did I.  There is a need for more people to learn as much as they can.  You will either have a family member get this disease or will know someone with it.

It is not a disease to be afraid of but it will help you and them if you know how to respond to certain responses, statements or subjects of their choosing.

There comes a time when you need to get help from an assisted living.  It may even be necessary to put them in a nursing  home.  This book takes you through both facilities and when Peggy thought it was time for each.

Each case is different, but each has a lot of similarities.  Support groups are a lot of help.  This book tells about my case and what I learned.  There is so much more to learn and situations which I did not have to face.  Your case will be different. 

I only hope this book helps you in some way.  I have added some helpful hints at the end of some chapters.  I learned a lot of my hints from people in my support group who care for loved ones with this disease.

May God bless each caregiver.  You are a VIP in their life.

In 1971 Norma Guthkelch, retired neurosurgeon, published the first description of the Shaken Baby Syndrome (SBS). Within the next several years John Caffey, pediatric radiologist, wrote several articles supporting the SBS theory. Very soon after, when infants were brought into hospital emergency rooms in the U.S.A. with brain hemorrhages without known accidental explanations such as auto accidents or high distance falls, almost routinely the hemorrhages have been attributed to SBS or related diagnoses resulting in criminal conviction of parents or caretakers. These and other issues such as inflicted child abuse, non-accidental trauma, failure to protect, and other diagnoses are reviewed in this book “Since the original introduction of the SBS theory, conclusive evidence has emerged proving that these prosecutions have been founded upon tainted medical opinions and fundamentally flawed scientific methodology (i.e. junk science). It requires little imagination to understand the significant mental pain which parents undergo while grieving over the death of a child, as frequently occurs in these cases. Accusing this parent of murdering their child (with no real evidence) and putting the entire strength of the state behind this accusation is monstrous, when the entire accusation pivots upon facts which are now known to be false. Loss of job, loss of family and community ties follow the accusation. Moreover, the general public, the grand and petite juries, the states and the parties, all have an overwhelmingly strong interest in knowing if these prosecutions are founded upon reasonable interpretation of the facts – or – if the accusations are built around falsehoods and scientific impossibilities.” Quoted from the writings of Kent Holcomb.

Dr. Lunde takes us behind the scenes in some of the most celebrated and controversial criminal and civil trials of the past fifty years.

As one of the pioneers in the field now known as forensic psychiatry, he interviewed people like Patty Hearst and the Hillside Strangler and consulted with judges and attorneys in hundreds of cases in his illustrious career.

After reviewing extensive evidence and interviewing witnesses, Dr. Lunde often served as a key witness in trials involving people like Howard Hughes, who were the subjects of much speculation but few actual factual investigations. 

As a well-known Stanford psychiatrist, he was able to uncover the reasons why people committed outrageous and sometimes unspeakable acts which shocked their communities and even the world.

This book reveals previously unpublished details of the way in which doctors and other professionals go about trying to understand an event and then see that justice is served.  One such event discussed is the mass murder/suicide of almost one thousand Americans in a remote South American jungle clearing called Jonestown.

This memoir contains stories which are stranger than fiction but that actually happened.  They are told by someone who was in a unique position to learn about them and who now shares the experience with the reader.

& n b s p ; & nbsp;          This book provides a global introduction to Medical Writing for health professions students and for practicing health professionals who are just starting to do some writing.  At the same time, it is sufficiently sophisticated to offer valuable tips to experienced writers.

 

& n b s p ; & nbsp;          Besides scientific articles, students and residents need help for their practical needs:  writing histories, progress notes and case summaries.  And later, they will need the ability to write letters and prepare reports – topics included in this book.

 

& n b s p ; & nbsp;          So often, the need for such training in the other health professions is ignored – dentistry, nursing, podiatry, optometry, pharmacy, physician assistant, public health, occupational therapy and physical therapy, as examples.  Therefore, Medical Writing 101 is a practical help for all health professionals.

& n b s p ; & nbsp;          This comprehensive book can serve several purposes:  a textbook for an actual course, or a self-study manual, or a refresher for the occasional writer – or all three.  Included are important items – usually unknown o the novice and rarely offered in print – as where to find material for writing articles, formats to use, deciding where to submit an article, and knowing what happens when the manuscript or book goes to the editor or publisher.

& n b s p ; & nbsp;          Medical Writing 101 includes material on other writings:  letters, charts, reports and records – all so essential to the health professional’s career and for which he or she is rarely given guidance.

& n b s p ; & nbsp;          This is a “how-to” book, written in a lucid and informal and interesting style – actually a conversational tone.  Replete with strongly illustrative and practical examples, it emphasizes what a tutor might offer in person.  To add to the enjoyment of the book, the author uses humor from time to time – sometimes subtle and sly, sometimes overt – to help emphasize important points.

V8 ENGINE KIDS IN A 4 CYLINDER WORLD answers these questions for parents, teachers, and professionals...

-How do I know if a child has ADHD?
-How can I help an ADHD child?
-What discipline techniques will work with an ADHD child?

Dr. Brelvi, a SUNY: Optometry graduate and an 18-year veteran of Clinical Optometry, throws down the “gauntlet” to the next generation of Vision Therapy clinicians, not only in the US but also around the world. He challenges them to adopt a much-needed optometric model in the Cognitive Neurosciences, in order to effectively address the burgeoning fields of Autism, various Neurological Dysfunctions and Learning Disabilities.

According to Dr. Brelvi, the frontiers of scientific discovery are defined as much by the tools available for clinical observation and monitoring as by conceptual innovation. Optometrists or Optometric physicians have historically studied the visual system in toto to understand the subtle nuances associated with a spectrum of learning disabilities. Dr. Brelvi feels that the time is now ripe for Optometry to broaden its scientific horizons and venture into the Cognitive realm of neurological dysfunctions.

By introducing the new discipline of Cognitive Optometry, Dr. Brelvi envisions fellow clinicians to recognize the key role played by the visual system in the complex process of cognition, which gives rise to the gift of sentience in modern Homo sapiens. In his view, what marks Cognitive Optometry as an emerging discipline in the Neuro-Clinical Sciences is the study of anomalous mental activity as a visual information-processing problem.

It rests on the premise that our perceptions, thoughts and social behavior depend on the ability of the visual system to evaluate and collate sensory information correctly. Perceptual representations taking place in various regions of the brain need to be “translated” into successful goal-oriented behavior in afflicted “patients” to help lead more productive and rewarding lifestyles.
