Book Description

Clinical Ethics introduces the four-topics method of approaching ethical problems (i.e., medical indications, patient preferences, quality of life, and contextual features). Each of the four chapters represents one of the topics. In each chapter, the authors discuss cases and provide comments and recommendations. The four-topics method is an organizational process by which clinicians can begin to understand the complexities involved in ethical cases and can proceed to find a solution for each case.

Concise, yet comprehensive sytematic approach to bioethics.......1999-10-22

Dr. Jonsen is one the nation's germinal thinkers in the field of bioethics. Through his experience and associations at several of the renowned medical academic institutions in this coutnry he sets forth a clear systematic approach to problems in bioethics. This includes a review of his "4-box" method for approaching ethical problems and then reviews basic ethical principles as well as legal definitions. His approach to clincal dilemmas provides a refreshing analytical process for dilineating issues and conflicts.

This is an excellent resource for those in medical settings........1997-07-18

The authors suggest another method of evaluating ethical dilemmas. They suggest one examine the situation in light of medical indications, patient preferences, quality of life, and contextual features. Because the approach is clinical, rather than theoretical, some of the medical details presented are somewhat technical. This is a book for those working in a medical setting or otherwise engaged with medical ethics. I read the book based on the recommendation of a bioethics lecturer. It was further recommended recently by the Director of the Program in Medical Ethics for University of California, Irvine. --Mary Kay Buike, MSW, ACSW; Oncology Social Worker and member of a hospital Bioethics Committee

Customer Reviews:

Aspergers Syndrome Emotional difficulties.......2007-06-05

An excellent book, good practical advice. A must for anyone involved with teaching a child with Aspergers Syndrome. The first few chapters breakdown in simple talk what Aspergers People have the most difficulties with. It points out the areas that are considered "normal" for Aspergers syndrome, and that your child is not the only child having these difficulties. I found this particularly useful to show to teachers and principals who are either too busy or lack the inclination to learn about the Syndrome.

The next part of the book explains the rage process, what to look out for, where the teaching zones are and where it is best left until the child has calmed down.

The latter stage of the book gives solutions to the issues that result in Tantrums and meltdowns.

A must for anyone teaching Aspergers children and a great help to parents.

Best available - for adult tantrums also.......2007-03-04

For people struggling with Asperger tantrums/breakdowns/lock-ups/rage, this book offers many insights and strategies to understand, prevent and manage the behaviour. Highly recommended.

Maybe there are others but this one is great!.......2007-03-01

I love this book. For professional reasons I find myself going back to it over and over again.

I have bought over a dozen copies of this book.......2007-01-03

This is a must have book. I have purchased a cpoy for every teacher, guidance counselor & admininstrator that comes in contact with my son on a daily basis.

This book not only gives people the insite on how to work with someone with Aspergers.. it also gives them the tools to do it. All of my sons teachers photocopy the charts & use them.

I have noticed a drastic change in how school personnel deal with my son after they read the book... it makes for a much better school environment for my son & those around him.

If I could own only one book on Asperger Syndrome..........2006-10-11

Honestly, this is a must have as far as I am concerned. It is a small book, but it is full of essential information that can help parents and professionals understand how to help individuals with Asperger Syndrome reach their potential. I have recommended this book to many parents and professionals in my work as an educational specialist and find it helpful when working as a member of an IEP team. Busy professionals and parents who advocate for children with Asperger Syndrome will find themselves referring to this book again and again.

Book Description

Practical Neuroangiography, Second Edition is a complete, concise, current, practical, and richly illustrated guide to diagnostic and interventional neuroangiography and neurovascular disease. Techniques and safety chapters take readers through the actual hands-on experience in the angiography suite and specifically address issues concerning patient safety, radiation protection, complications, and outcome. Subsequent chapters describe and illustrate the entire gamut of neurovascular anatomy, anatomic variants, and pathology to help readers interpret neuroangiographic studies.

This edition's expanded section on interventional neuroradiology covers the most common elective and emergent interventional procedures. The updated artwork includes over 1,000 photographs and diagrams, some in full-color or two-color.

Customer Reviews:

Great illustrations, diagrams and labeled arteriograms.......2001-02-11

This is a great book for anyone interested in neuroangiography. The beginning chapter goes through the nuances of selective catheterisation and meticulous anti-embolic technique with each step nicely illustrated. It is difficult to get this information elsewhere. The anatomic chapters emphasize the issues that routinely arise when trying to define cerebral aneurysms. These chapters also clarify a lot of vascular nomenclature that can be otherwise confusing. I refer to this book whenever I come across an atypical vessel. If neuroangiography is part of your practice, you will find this book extremely helpful and will want a copy of it in your neuroangiography area.

Great illustrations, diagrams and labeled arteriograms.......2001-02-11

No better title for this book.......2000-09-08

This is an excellent starting point for the senior radiology resident or beginning diagnostic neuroradiology fellow who wants to learn the basics of "practical neuroangiography." It is wordier than Ann Osborn's new "Diagnostic Cerebral Angiography" and it contains a bit more statistical information and factoids than I could deal with at times but seldom do books entitled "practical" live up to there names as this one does. There are numerous excellent angiographic examples and line drawings which illustrate common normal variants. I think the greatest asset of this book is the beginning chapters on technical procedures which gives many useful (ie practical) points on performing cerebral angiography which is were it really excels over Osborn. This is a must have in the library of any newcomer to the field.

Customer Reviews:

Great book!.......2007-08-02

I haven't finished this book yet but it is basic enough to incorporate into your life to help you get through your depression and anxiety.

I have been depressed since the age of 19 and I'm now 36 so I am excited to see how much it can help me in the long run.

Helps w/ the issues (and much more).......2007-06-28

It's been about 3-4 years since I read this book. I was in a dark period after a family tragedy. I'm a very well adjusted and happy adult and this book is a big part of it.

Revolutionary? No. It's just a simple way to re-engineer self-image. What Dr. Joe advocates is 1. disrupt the negative self-talk (all depression patients know about the neg. self talk). 2. replace the negative "ST" with positive "ST." 3. practice this habit over and over until it becomes routine (perhaps the most challenging part). 4. After doing this exercise for about 6-12 months, suddenly you discover that this activity becomes habit, and you then pleasantly discover that your self image is constantly positive and you feel much-much better.

Then, you start to apply this technique to other parts of your life, and, if you're like me, you realize that all that stuff the dali lama preaches is real: you really do have control over your life!

This book requires steady work-hard work which, if practiced, becomes easy with time. Hang in there folks! Stick to the plan and you will find your way out of the dark hole!

Who else do I recommend? Check out Tal Ben-Shahar's books. He's another positive psychologist. Good stuff.

LOGICAL and Basic! Very helpful!.......2007-05-04

This book is for anyone tired of feeling like a victim of their own thoughts. After reading this book I was able to immediately incorporate his techniques successfully. For example, I had a class that always makes gives me anxiety so when I was in class and feeling awful, I looked at the clock and said to myself, "2 more hours. I can handle anything for 2 hours." After that I was fine! It's not just about telling yourself positive things that may be untrue or simply unhelpful, it's about separating fact from fiction. It was true I hated the class, but it was also true that I could handle it for 2 hours. Once you separate fact from fiction you begin to see how your self doubt doesn't need to have the upper hand. You can choose to stop feeling insecure and start LIVING. Negative thoughts stop us from action and freedom from these thought allows us to LIVE. I also recommend the book Dancing with Fear by Foxman, very good and very helpful, but if you want something more pragmatic - buy Luciani's book.

Self Coaching.......2007-03-13

To be honest this wasn't a book that I could get into. I returned it after scanning it.

even better book .......2007-03-12

this book is great. it really puts things into prespective. if give a lot of definitions an backgroud information. It offers a lot of clarity and helps one tackle the life challenging problems of anxiety and depression. i strongly recommend this book

Just finished my sub-I (AI) in medicine and this book was awesome. Small, but packed with tons of great/relavent info. Now, if u have easy, quick access to up-to-date, u probably don't need this. Up-to-date is hands-down the BEST source for students/residents/physicians. Damn, that sounds like a pitch eh? So no, I don't work for up-to-date...but god do i hope LSU offers it to the residents.
