Abstract

"So what is really 'normal' when it comes to health? For all our expertise and technological sophistication, Western medicine often fails to treat the whole person, ignoring how today's culture stresses the body, burdens the immune system, and undermines emotional balance. In The Myth of Normal, co-written with his son Daniel, Maté brings his perspective to the great untangling of common myths about what makes us sick, connects the dots between the maladies of individuals and the declining soundness of society, and offers a compassionate guide for health and healing" -- Provided by publisher.

Abstract

"Diagnosketch is a visual aid to explain medical diagnoses to patients at the bedside. It uses simplified images to illustrate complicated anatomy and concepts. The title, 'Diagnosketch,' combines the term 'diagnosis,' with the term, 'sketch,' paralleling the way the book combines a medical diagnosis with a simplified sketch. It includes common pathologies seen in an acute care setting, especially ones that are easier to explain with pictures"-- Provided by publisher

Abstract

Kate Bowler believed that life was a series of unlimited choices, only to find that she was stuck in a cancerous body at age 35 ... With dry wit and unflinching honesty, she grapples with her cancer diagnosis, her ambition, and her faith and searches for some kind of peace with her limitations in a culture that says that anything is possible.In facing down cancer, Kate, -- a Christian Joan Didion -- (Glennon Doyle), searches for hope without cheap optimism, and truth with room for mystery. We are as fragile as the day we were born, and we will need each other if we're going to tell the truth: Life is beautiful and terrible, full of hope and despair and everything in between, but there's no cure for being human. -- Author's website

Abstract

Summary

"This book examines the intersections of bioethics, human rights and health equity. It does so through the contextual lenses of nation states while presenting global themes on rights, colonialism and bioethics. The book is framed by the following propositions on indigenous health: it is a human rights issue; it is located within the politics of colonization; and subjugated indigenous knowledges require restoring"-- Provided by Publisher

Abstract

This book describes the changing role of pathology in aiding reproducible and accurate patient selection for predictive cancer therapy. Particular attention is given to the clinical application of cutting-edge cancer biomarkers to accurately select patients for targeted cancer therapy and how artificial intelligence can improve the precision of treatments. The advent and basis of predictive cancer care, the role of pathologists in translational cancer research, the analysis of cancer samples, the management of biopsy results, and the accuracy of biopsy results are also discussed. Precision Cancer Medicine: Role of the Pathologist details how pathologists can use the latest biomarkers and apply artificial intelligence technology in cancer diagnosis and management. It is also relevant to oncologists and medical practitioners involved in cancer management seeking an up-to-date resource on the topic. -- Provided by publisher.
