5 out of 5 stars Required Reading.......2007-09-28

It's a good book with plenty of definitions and references. If you want to know about the History of Art and the Cultures that go along with it, I suggest this book.

Of course, I am a college student at an Art school and so I didn't have much of a choice as it is a required reading for one of my classes.

                          Book Description

                          The situation is grave at the Dungeon - the eye of Biscara, that observed all the comings and goings in the dungeon, is gone and to make matters worse, the Big Dragon, who guarded the treasure, has died. The master of the Dungeon therefore recruits Herbert and friends on a perilous mission to find a replacement eye and a new fire breather-for-hire in Cochonville, a breeding ground for dragons. The combination of well-written characters, twisty and surprising plots, great pacing, very appealing art, and dialog that sparkles like a diamond makes Dungeon the must-read comic book of the year. --Sequential Tart

                          Every parent has embarrassed their teenager at least one time or another, whether it be showing too much affection in public or just wearing tight pants. Now, two sixteen-year-old boys have created this single most useful (and hysterically funny) handbook ever. Compiled with great wit and humor, over 250 helpful donts (not dos) have collected, including: dont ever get into an argument with a softball coach, dont ever wear a thong bikini to the beach, dont ask any questions after parties, dont laugh at your own jokes, dont ever go into a teens bedroom, and much more.

                          5 out of 5 stars Very funny and wise, too!.......2000-10-31

                          A book that is just as funny for adults as it is for teens. I thoroughly enjoyed reading it and could see where teens would cringe when well-meaning adults acted in what they thought were "cool" and "hip" ways. I've done it myself many times! A great, breezy read.

                          5 out of 5 stars A great mother's or father's day gift!.......1999-04-21

                          To Teenagers: these are all realistic things that embarrass you or annoy you. You'll be able to help your parents out a lot. To Parents: you can't deny that you do these things, so pick up a copy and help yourself and your kid. They'll thank you for it.

                          5 out of 5 stars This is the best one-liner handbook of the season.......1999-03-15

                          Everyone should read "How Not to Embarrass Your Kids". Parents with teens will love it. Teen agers themselves will howl. A must-read by two Huck Finn type of sixteen year olds. Simply sensational one-liners!

                                Book Description

                                The topic of professionalism has dominated the content of major academic medicine publications (e.g. Journal of the American Medical Association, New England Journal of Medicine, Academic Medicine, Annals of Internal Medicine, The Lancet) during the past decade and continues to do so. The message of this current wave of professionalism is that medical educators need to be more attentive to the moral sensibilities of trainees, to their interpersonal and affective dimensions, and to their social conscience, all to the end of skilled, humanistic physicians. Urgent calls to address professionalism from such groups as the Association of American Medical Colleges (representing the nation's 126 accredited medical schools and nearly 400 major teaching hospitals), the American Board of Internal Medicine, and the Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education, among others. In fact, at the 2004 annual meeting of the AAMC six separate presentations addressed professionalism with such titles as "Evaluating Humanism and Professionalism," Professionalism: Expectation, Education, Evaluation," or "Toward Assessing Professional Behaviors of Medical Students through Peer Observations" (note the preoccupation with assessment).

                                Professionalism, then, has become part of the current academic medicine parlance, used by administrators, clinical faculty, residency programs, and professional organizations with an expectation of shared meanings and goals. All of these stakeholders focus on what has become a consistent list of attributes deemed to be the essence of professionalism, which usually include variations on altruism, duty, excellence, honor and integrity, accountability, and respect. In fact, most of the scholarly work to date has been listing (attributes of professionalism), describing (activities that may foster it), decrying (the environment that works against it), and measuring/evaluating it.

                                In this collection of essays, we don’t argue with these attributes. Instead, we ask questions of the discourse from which they arise, how the specialized language of academic medicine disciplines has defined, organized, contained, and made seemingly immutable a group of attitudes, values, and behaviors subsumed under the label "professional" or "professionalism." This collection aims to be a critical text, one that questions the profession’s beliefs about the nature of its work and how such beliefs are enacted (or not) in medical education, particularly as they fuel the professionalism discourse. In addition, we will scrutinize how the discourse is enacted in both the formal and hidden curriculum, and in the larger medical environment.

                                  Burnout is a common metaphor for a state of extreme psychophysical exhaustion, usually work-related. This book provides an overview of the burnout syndrome from its earliest recorded occurrences to current empirical studies. It reviews perceptions that burnout is particularly prevalent among certain professional groups - police officers, social workers, teachers, financial traders - and introduces individual inter- personal, workload, occupational, organizational, social and cultural factors. Burnout deals with occurrence, measurement, assessment as well as intervention and treatment programmes.; This textbook should prove useful to occupational and organizational health and safety researchers and practitioners around the world. It should also be a valuable resource for human resources professional and related management professionals.

                                        Book Description

                                        Although the use of new health technologies in healthcare and medicine is generally seen as beneficial, there has been little analysis of the impact of such technologies on people's lives and understandings of health and illness. This book explores how new technologies not only provide hope for cure and well-being, but also introduce new ethical dilemmas and raise questions about the "natural" body. Focusing on the ways new health technologies intervene into our lives and affect our ideas about normalcy, the body and identity, New Health Technologies explores: how new health technologies are understood by lay people and patients how the outcomes of these technologies are communicated in various clinical settings how these technologies can alter our notions of health and illness and create "new illness." Written by authors with differing backgrounds in phenomenology, social psychology, social anthropology, communication studies and the nursing sciences, this book is essential reading for students andacademics of medical sociology, health and allied studies, and anyone with an interest in new health technologies.

                                              Book Description

                                              Cumulative Trauma Disorders, Second Edition is a thorough revision of Putz-Anderson's authoritative work that incorporates current research and opinion. The book provides a clear and usable guide for those actively involved in the assessment and prevention of work-related musculoskeletal disorders. It presents information that enables nonmedical personnel to recognize the dangers and risks of CTDs, also known as repetitive strain injuries or work-related upper limb disorders, and discusses up-to-date strategies for preventing their occurrence. This edition discusses indicators and identification methods and methods of prevention, and includes a new section on evaluating proposed control strategies.
