Color, Healthcare And Bioethics

de Henk Ten Have

~~7,49€~~ 5,99€ 20% IMEDIATO

DISPONIBILIDADE IMEDIATA

 This book explores the profound, yet often overlooked, role of color in healthcare and bioethics, arguing that color is far more than a visual or aesthetic element—it actively shapes human experience, perception, and ethical reasoning. Traditionally regarded as secondary to objective medical observations or rational ethical debates, color has been marginalized in these fields, considered subjective and inconsequential. However, this book reveals that color is critical in diagnostic and therapeutic practices and that it subconsciously influences moral interpretations in bioethics. Through examples like the ‘blue hour’—a time of day associated with melancholy and creativity—readers are invited to consider color not just as a physical phenomenon explained by wavelengths and visual physiology, but as a medium rich with emotional and metaphorical meaning. From ‘feeling blue’ to seeing the world in ‘black and white’, color conveys complex messages that inform our perceptions of health, morality, and identity. By bridging the gap between science, emotion, and ethics, this book illuminates how colors impact our worldviews, urging readers to consider the subtle yet significant ways that color influences our understanding of ourselves and the world around us.

Troubled People, Troubled World - Psychotherapy, Ethics And Society

de Michael Briant

~~7,49€~~ 5,99€ 20% IMEDIATO

DISPONIBILIDADE IMEDIATA

 Ethical issues are the stuff of psychotherapy, and in fact Freud envisaged the process as one in which an unexamined, irrational and oppressive conscience gives way to one more benignly rooted in reason. Therapists endeavour to be non-judgemental and, indeed, are no more qualified to pass judgement on others than anyone else; do they nevertheless learn anything about ethics from their disciplined listening? The same question was asked after the war about the persecution of the Jews and other minorities, and it’s a very live issue again, faced as we are by movements like ISIS, or Putinism in Russia, that cause great suffering in the name of religious or moral regeneration - a bewildering paradox that David Astor, former editor of The Observer called ‘the scourge’. Can psychotherapy throw any light on it, or contribute any ideas as to how we might contain, if not prevent, the barbarism it sanctions? Can it offer any insights into a different, more inclusive kind of ethics, and if so, can we glean any guidance from it as to how we might further it? These are the questions the author explores, drawing on psychoanalytic thinking on these issues for over a century and illustrated by his work with individuals over four decades.

Dietary Handbook Without The Yo-Yo Effect

de Dorota Sawicka

~~6,00€~~ 4,80€ 20% IMEDIATO

DISPONIBILIDADE IMEDIATA

 If you are wondering how to lose weight permanently, there is a tip for that. First, you need to change your eating habits permanently. However, as you can easily guess, this is not the only thing losing weight is about. You also need to combine it with physical activity. The word &#39;diet&#39; comes from the Greek and means a sensible lifestyle combining healthy eating with exercise. There are many diets that start out on top and then recede into the background because another one comes along. All these diets have one thing in common - they are &#39;lauded&#39; as ideal, and previous ways of losing weight become useless and unnecessary methods. This is how carbohydrates, for example, have been approached, once as a cause of excess weight, and at other times as an ingredient for a slimmer figure. It was very similar with a nutrient such as fat. The enemies of fat - mainly sports people - said it was fattening, while its opponents, as the name suggests, were of a different opinion. They propounded the thesis that fat adds energy.

Chance Encounters - A Bioethics For A Damaged Planet

de Kristien Hens

~~6,99€~~ 5,59€ 20% IMEDIATO

DISPONIBILIDADE IMEDIATA

 In this rigorous and necessary book, Kristien Hens brings together bioethics and the philosophy of biology to argue that it is ethically necessary for scientific research to include a place for the philosopher. As well as ethical, their role is conceptual: they can improve the quality and coherence of scientific research by ensuring that particular concepts are used consistently and thoughtfully across interdisciplinary projects. Hens argues that chance and uncertainty play a central part in bioethics, but that these qualities can be in tension with the attempt to establish a given theory as scientific knowledge: in describing organisms and practices, in a sense we create the world. Hens contends that this is necessarily an ethical activity. Examining genetic research, biomedical ethics, autism research and the concept of risk, Hens illustrates that there is no ‘universal’ or ‘neutral’ state of scientific and clinical knowledge, and that attending to the situatedness of individual experience is essential to understand the world around us, to know its (and our) limitations, and to forge an ethical future. Chance Encounters is aimed at a broad audience of researchers in bioethics, philosophy, anthropology, sociology, as well as biomedical and environmental scientists. It will also be relevant to policymakers, and the artwork by Christina Stadlbauer and Bartaku will be of interest to artists and writers working at the intersection of art and science.

A Complete Guide To Maggot Therapy - Clinical Practice, Therapeutic Principles, Production, Distribution, And Ethics

de Frank Stadler

~~6,99€~~ 5,59€ 20% IMEDIATO

DISPONIBILIDADE IMEDIATA

 Since the revival of maggot therapy in Western wound care approximately thirty years ago, there has been no comprehensive synthesis of what is known about its clinical practice, supply chain management, and social dimensions. This edited volume fills the information vacuum and, importantly, makes the current state of knowledge freely accessible. It is the first to provide sound, evidence-based information and guidance covering the entire supply chain from production to treatment. The chapters are arranged in five parts presenting the latest on clinical practice, the principles of therapeutic action, medicinal maggot production, distribution logistics, and the ethical dimensions of maggot therapy. The contributors have paid particular attention to the challenges encountered in compromised, low-resource healthcare settings such as disasters, conflict, and poverty. There are still many barriers to the widespread uptake of maggot therapy in healthcare settings. This book will be essential reading for a global audience of doctors, nurses, allied healthcare providers, students, and entrepreneurs with an interest in maggot-assisted wound care. It will be the go-to reference for those who plan, regulate, and coordinate healthcare, and want to establish a maggot therapy program, particularly in low- and middle-income and other compromised healthcare settings where maggot therapy can provide much-needed, affordable, and efficacious wound care.

Towards An Ethics Of Autism - A Philosophical Exploration

de Kristien Hens

~~6,99€~~ 5,59€ 20% IMEDIATO

DISPONIBILIDADE IMEDIATA

 Kristien Hens succeeds in weaving together experiential expertise of both people with autism and their parents, scientific insights and ethics, and does so with great passion and affection for people with autism (with or without mental or other disabilities). In this book she not only asks pertinent questions, but also critically examines established claims that fail to take into account the criticism and experiences of people with autism. Sam Peeters, author ofAutistic Gelukkig (Garant, 2018) and Gedurfde vragen (Garant, 2020); blog @ Tistje.com What does it mean to say that someone is autistic? Towards an Ethics of Autism is an exploration of this question and many more. In this thoughtful, wide-ranging book, Kristien Hens examines a number of perspectives on autism, including psychiatric, biological, and philosophical, to consider different ways of thinking about autism, as well as its meanings to those who experience it, those who diagnose it, and those who research it.  Hens delves into the history of autism and its roots in the work of Leo Kanner and Hans Asperger to inform a contemporary ethical analysis of the models we use to understand autism today. She explores the various impacts of a diagnosis on autistic people and their families, the relevance of disability studies, the need to include autistic people fully in discussions about (and research on) autism, and the significance of epigenetics to future work on autism. Hens weaves together a variety of perspectives that guide the reader in their own ethical reflections about autism. Rich, accessible, and multi-layered, this is essential reading for philosophers, educational scientists, and psychologists who are interested in philosophical-ethical questions related to autism, but it also has much to offer to teachers, allied health professionals, and autistic people themselves.

What are Forensic Sciences? - Concepts, Scope and Future Perspectives

de Ricardo Jorge Dinis-Oliveira e Teresa Magalhães

~~13,59€~~ 10,87€ 20% IMEDIATO

DISPONIBILIDADE IMEDIATA

 The forensic sciences are, today, an attractive and a complex "new world", from their scientific point of view and the individual and social impact they have. In a broad sense, the forensic sciences refer to the application of the knowledge of various sciences to clarify facts that are - or might be - judged in a legal or judicial level and in the criminal context, as well as in other areas of law. There are various disciplines within the forensic sciences, but we focused on those that are already are robust and individualized enough. Their designations are not always clear, and the limits of the areas of intervention of each one are not always obvious. With this book we want to contribute to the explanation of these aspects, hoping to promote a better recognition and the consequent connection between the different professionals operating in this area. But, despite their great diversity, all these sciences are united by common and fundamental notions, including the object, the objectives and the general methodology of their intervention - an evidentiary activity of scientific nature as an aid in the application of justice. These commonalities should be the engine of steady and good cooperation between the various sciences, since the resolution of many cases often requires an increasingly multidisciplinary participation. This book is also a tribute to Duarte Nuno Vieira, one of the most famous forensic specialists in the world. Topics - Forensic ballistics - Forensic biomechanics - Forensic botany - Forensic palynology - Document examination - Forensic nursing - Forensic entomology - Forensic photography - Forensic genetics - DNA database - Forensic geology - Computer forensics - Bloodstain pattern analysis - Forensic investigation on explosive atmospheres and explosives - Forensic investigation in forest fires - Forensic linguistics - Lophoscopy - Forensic odontology - Forensic medicine - Clinical forensic medicine - Forensic pathology - Forensic psychology - Forensic psychiatry - Forensic chemistry - Forensic social work - Forensic toxicology Preface Aurelio Luna Maldonado Full Professor of Forensic Medicine, University of Murcia

DISPONIBILIDADE IMEDIATA

 Quantum Hypnosis Scripts is a 222 page book of 26 full length, professional Hypnosis scripts, ideal for either professional use or for Self Hypnosis. As the title suggests, this book focuses exclusively on Hypnosis scripts and instructions for their best use.In addition to the 20 individual, push-button Hypnosis scripts, Quantum Hypnosis Scripts provides 2 Master Hypnosis Inductions, which are essential to the use of the provided Hypnosis scripts, if you don't already have a favorite Hypnosis induction.Also included are 2 Hypnosis Series Programs of 3 Hypnosis scripts each, for Weight Loss and Stress Reduction. Since these applications are ideally treated with a series of progressive, sequential sessions which are frequently hard to find, I think that readers will be pleased with these session scripts.Readers of Quantum Hypnosis Scripts also receive a Bonus FREE full-length audio Hypnosis session, valued at $59, available at the book's website. Detailed information on how to access your free Hypnosis session is available in the last chapter of this book.Incidentally, if you are a user of the Instant Self Hypnosis method or a reader of Eyes Open Self Hypnosis, reading these complete and suggestion-rich scripts will work well for you.For readers of Quantum Self Hypnosis and students or graduates of NEIH, these are new scripts for you, although the now familiar script framework (the beach scene) is used in all the included scripts. There are also a few essential, duplicate Hypnosis applications featured in this book complete with new suggestions and thus different scripts from those offered in Quantum Self Hypnosis.The general approach for all of the included scripts is ego-strengthening and nurturing. These scripts are very helpful for professional use as well as for Self-Hypnotists. Also important, there are no scripts in this book that utilize negative programming or aversion therapy. These scripts are all positive, present tense, and affirmative in nature, thus very effective.This book was written as a stand alone text as well as a companion book to Quantum Self Hypnosis, so readers of that book will find many new and interesting scripts to use in this book.We decided at the 11th hour to include one of our well-known Stop Smoking Hypnosis scripts because it seemed wrong not to include a script for one of the most popular Hypnosis applications in this first volume of Quantum Hypnosis Scripts. Since this script is not brand new or unique, it is being included as a Bonus script and not being counted as one of the advertised 24 Hypnosis scripts included in this book. While the script isn't unique, it is very effective, so for readers looking for a good Stop Smoking script, enjoy your bonus script!This book is considered a cornerstone work by many practicing Hypnotherapy professionals. If you are looking for quality, time tested Hypnotherapy scripts, this is the book for you!

This cutting-edge guide to nutrition, training and lifestyle will optimise a woman's body for longevity, through menopause and beyond. Strong skeletal muscle drives healthy longevity - yet too often women neglect this important measure of fitness. Indeed, more than 70% of women experience musculoskeletal symptoms like joint pain, muscle loss and reduced bone density as they enter perimenopause and menopause. These symptoms - what Dr Vonda Wright refers to as the 'musculoskeletal syndrome of menopause' - can often set us up for osteoporosis, osteopenia, broken bones, increasingly limited mobility and reduced independence later in life. That trend stops now. Unbreakable outlines a new and direct path to protecting ourselves against this too-common fate. Drawing on her decades of experience as a pioneering orthopaedic surgeon helping women at all fitness levels to repair their bones and regain strength, Dr Wright gives clear action steps to shield us from the timebombs of aging in four critical categories: Exercise: Pinpointing the right combination of cardio and resistance training for you to aid in tissue regeneration and improve metabolic function. Nutrition: What to eat to extinguish inflammation, repopulate your gut biome, and support strong bones and muscle growth. Lifestyle: How to manage chronic stress, get more restorative sleep, and turn down systemic inflammation in your daily life. Supplements: What to take to target the elimination of 'zombie cells' and improve your cell function. Including a six-week, master exercise protocol to jumpstart skeletal and muscular strength, critical information about baseline blood and mobility tests that will help you understand your current health state, and twenty easy, anti-inflammatory recipes, Unbreakable is an invaluable guide to adding more vibrantly healthy life to your years.
