Health Professional and Patient Interaction.......2007-08-27
This book is very insightful, to the point, a very easy read. I am a very busy person so being able to just sit down and read this book was a delightful experience!
Decent contents but in need of quality editing.......2007-06-10
I used this book for my recent healthcare communications class. While the information contained within the book was quite informative, the text itself was not well written. There were large numbers of run-on sentences and I even spotted the word 'reckon' within the text. The word 'reckon' should never be included in formal writing. In fact, the only appropriate place for the word 'reckon' is as a quote, either in fictional dialogue or as a quote of a real person. The poor writing forces the reader to glean the information from the text, hampering the ability of the reader to gain much from reading it. I hope the publisher and/or authors deal with this in future editions. It could be a great textbook once these issues are addressed.
Strong textbook for studying patient-provider interactions.......2004-08-30
This is a good, balanced textbook for anyone needing a detailed source anayzing the doctor or nurse and patient interaction.
Strengths: Balanced, objective, good references, non-critical.
Weaknesses: Long, sometimes states the obvious, choppy theoretical discussions.
Average customer rating:
- Excellent book for enhancing the skills of direct providers.

Excellent book for enhancing the skills of direct providers........1998-09-01
We are using this book to introduce future therapists to patient and professional communication issues. I especially like the focus on cultural sensitivity and competence as well as the emphasis on patient-focused communication. The section on communication in difficult circumstances is invaluable for entry-level professionals in today's hectic, cost-centered healthcare arena.

¿Qué pasó? con ¿Qué pasó?.......2000-11-01
I found this pocket sized book useless and full of gramatical mistakes (for example missing accent marks). It was hard to find what I was looking for as well.
Fair.......2000-06-11
The book has a lot of useful phrases for dealing with someone until you get a translator. It could really use a pronunciation guide. It is very basic. It is a little outdated and it does not cover any new medical terminolgy that has been in use since the 1980's. You will not find names for new technological instruments just the basic X ray and such. Also, you will not be able to find out how to ask questions that are problems for today. Example, the book tells you how to ask a parent if the child swallowed gasoline or bleach but not new questions for today like "did your child sniff glue?" However,for the price and for quick reference, the book served its purpose.
Handy.......2000-05-28
Booklet; format and content very good. No pronounciation guide. Accessible, sturdy, easy to handle, space for notes - a bargain.
Excellent, quick guide for health care workers........1998-11-03
I took this book to Bolivia, as a non-Spanish speaking medical missionary. Soon I was conversant, at least in the medical clinic. I am now buying a copy for each doctor on our staff, and an extra copy for the E.R.

Statistical Methods in Genetic Epidemiology
ASIN: 0471467812 |
Book Description
Understanding the play between heredity and environment, and relating it to disease causation, is the task of ecogenetics. Gene-Environment Interactions: Fundamentals of Ecogenetics presents the first comprehensive survey of this discipline, reflecting its relationship with toxicology, epidemiology, pharmacology, public health, and other medical and biological fields.
Divided into four sections, the text elucidates key basic and advanced topics:
* Section 1 covers fundamentals, including the history of the discipline, a discussion of the molecular laboratory tools currently available to assess genotypes, using such measurements in molecular epidemiology studies, and the statistical issues involved in their analysis.
* Section 2 focuses on a number of key genetic polymorphisms relevant for ecogenetics, including enzymes of phase I and phase II metabolism, enzymes involved in DNA repair, as well as receptors and ion channels. This highlights characteristics of selected, widely studied genotypic/phenotypic differences, and allows discussion of how given genetic variations can influence responses to exogenous chemicals.
* Section 3 examines gene-environment interactions through a disease-based approach, addressing how genetic polymorphisms can influence susceptibility to various diseases. Chapters cover important disease conditions such as various types of cancer, neurodegenerative diseases, cardiovascular disease, chronic pulmonary diseases, infectious diseases, diabetes, and obesity.
* The final section discusses the ethical, legal, and social issues that arise when investigating and evaluating genetic polymorphisms in human populations, as well as the impact of ecogenetics on risk assessment, regulatory policies, and medicine and public health.
Packed with clear examples illustrating concepts, as well as numerous tables and figures, Gene-Environment Interactions: Fundamentals of Ecogenetics is a unique resource for a wide range of physicians, students, and other specialists.

Book Description
Mesoscopic physics deals with effects at submicron and nanoscales where the conventional wisdom of macroscopic averaging is no longer applicable. A wide variety of new devices have recently evolved, all extremely promising for major novel directions in technology, including carbon nanotubes, ballistic quantum dots, hybrid mesoscopic junctions made of different type of normal, superconducting and ferromagnetic materials. This, in turn, demands a profound understanding of fundamental physical phenomena on mesoscopic scales. As a result, the forefront of fundamental research in condensed matter has been moved to the areas where the interplay between electron-electron interactions and quantum interference of phase-coherent electrons scattered by impurities and/or boundaries is the key to such understanding. An understanding of decoherence as well as other effects of the interactions is crucial for developing future electronic, photonic and spintronic devices, including the element base for quantum computation.

Excellent book.......2002-06-12
This is an excellent book for anyone working in this field. The book covers everything from the basic theory to the latest applications. Detailed descriptions of each type of interaction mechanism and detailed references on each type of application are given. The second edition has been completely revised and updated. Highest ratings by Prof. Berns and Prof. van Gemert in their own classes. A MUST for your book shelf.
Concise and Practical.......2000-07-09
This book provides a concise review of laser-tissue interaction. It begins by introducing a brief theoretical foundation in tissue optics and moves on to describing various interaction and ablation mechanisms. The chapters are very well organized, the materials are well presented, and equations are used only when necessary. A large chapter is dedicated to introducing various medical applications of lasers in different clinical fields. The materials in this book are very suitable for scientists, engineers, and physicians involved in biomedical optics. However, since the release of this book, significant progress has been made in this area, which requires the author to substantially update information and development in the next edition.

Book Description
Interest in the theory of relativistic particles with arbitrary spins is increasing. One of the reasons is that SUSY models require superpartners, i.e. additional fields of particles with higher spins. In particular, it is important to take into account particle with spin 3/2 - gravitino which appears in cosmological models based on supergravity and in the theory of inflation of the universe.
This book deals with fields which possess different spins so, that there is an additional internal symmetry of such schemes. The main feature of theories with multi-spin is that transformations of the Lorentz and internal symmetry groups do not commute each other. So, parameters of the group are tensors but not scalars as in (the more common) gauge theories. This kind of symmetry is also different from supersymmetry where group parameters are not scalars. The difference is that in this case the algebra of generators of the symmetry is closed without adding the generators of the Poincaré group. Consideration of schemes of fields with multi-spin possess some attractive features and avoid some difficulties; but the price of this is the presence of the indefinite metric. It should be noted that some quantum theories of gravity also require the introduction of an indefinite metric. The localization of parameters of the internal symmetry group leads to the gauge fields and field interactions. In Part II solutions are found for equations for particles with different spins in external classical and quantized electromagnetic fields, as well as the interaction of fields with multi-spin with external electromagnetic fields of different configurations.
