What Everyone Needs To Know®

Mental illness touches nearly every life in some capacity. More than 10% of the world's population is personally affected by a mental disorder at any given moment in time, and some estimates indicate that more than a third of us will have a diagnosable mental disorder at some point in our lives. Yet, mental illnesses impact more than just those with the disorder; they also exact a heavy toll on family, friends, colleagues, and caregivers, as well as society at large. In fact, five of the top ten most debilitating and costly diseases in the world are mental disorders. As such, mental illnesses pose an enormous and unique public health problem; to effectively combat this problem everyone needs to know the basics. Mental Illness: What Everyone Needs to Know® reflects the massive efforts being made by scientists and clinicians to better understand and treat mental disorders. In turn, more of this new knowledge must get into the hands of consumers of mental-health services and the public at large. This book bridges this gap by distilling the deep and intimate knowledge held by mental health researchers and professionals into easily digestible facts for the lay audience.

Reflective Practice in Nursing and Midwifery: A Comprehensive Guide

Mathematics and Biomedical Engineering in Medicine, Physiology and Health Sciences is a visionary book, whose purpose is to demonstrate how fundamental mathematics and biomedical engineering can be incorporated into physiology, medicine, and health sciences teaching, research, and clinical practice to make these disciplines more quantitative and computational, and hence more explanatory and informative. The book also provides more quantitative formulation of medical procedures, towards supporting the growing field of precision medicine.

It is free to read on the Oxford Academic platform and offered as a free PDF download from OUP and selected open access locations. During crises, such as pandemics or environmental disasters, governments must act swiftly to prevent disease and death, often with incomplete information. The principle of proportionality serves as the established legal and ethical standard for navigating this balance. However, during times of severe crisis and uncertainty, determining the proportionality of public health actions is extremely complex, particularly when decisions are made without conclusive evidence or uniformly applicable international standards. In Proportionality, Nikola Biller-Andorno, Julian W. März, Corine Mouton-Dorey, and Stéphanie Dagron bring together 49 scholars and practitioners from around the world to explore how proportionality can guide and shape decision-making under crisis conditions. As they argue, a fundamental challenge in this domain is reconciling the obligation to foster population health through disease prevention, detection, and intervention with the imperative to respect and protect individual rights, including autonomy and privacy. Thus, the chapters in this volume highlight the principle and the process of proportionality, in order to guide decision-making and apply proportionate measures in the face of future public health crises, whether infectious, ecological, or linked to armed conflict. This volume not only develops the key concept of proportionality from the perspectives of law, human rights, philosophy, public health ethics, and political science, but it also looks at specific proportionality issues, such as freedom of movement, gender equity, children's rights and disease prevention. Examining how governments and health authorities navigate the delicate balance between protecting public health and safeguarding individual rights in times of crisis, Proportionality provides a comprehensive analysis on the topic. Further, it aims to guide the development of public health policies that are effective, equitable, and respectful of human rights.

A Guiding Principle in Public Health Law, Ethics, and Policy

Proportionality

What is it like to become a doctor? What do you have to go through to be the person who handles sick bodies, who makes life-and-death decisions, who labours in a system with unyielding demands, who daily faces the emotional and physical traumas of others, and who at the same time must make a positive impression on both patients and colleagues? This book is about what becomes of the person who becomes a doctor. It describes one individual's experience, from 1966 onwards, of being gradually transformed from a nervous student into a professorial physician. The book is not a memoir in the ordinary sense, being less concerned with what the author did than with what education and medical practice did to him. 
Each of the book's chapters focuses on a theme, creating a narrative that is roughly chronological, beginning with the perspectives of a junior medical student and ending with reflections on a doctor's two major 'crafts': diagnosis and treatment. In reflecting on a particular span of years, the book's story is in constant conversation with its historical context, which is a dimension that medical orthodoxy scarcely notices. Reflections are shadowed by theory, but this is not an analytical essay, driving towards specific conclusions and prescriptions. It is a piece of provocative and entertaining literature about experiences and dilemmas that mater to everyone. 
A doctor's education looks at first sight like a straightforward technical training, but 're-membering' it as a personal experience creates a new and disturbing picture, a blend of joys, absurdities and frustrations. The author observes his younger self's efforts to communicate and to regulate feelings in the prescribed way and begins to see that to become a doctor is to be at the mercy of almost irresistible pressures. He picks up habits by mimicking the teachers, with sometimes disastrous results. He is vulnerable to the power of medicine's rhetoric and feels the need to be 'the right stuff'. Communication, and even empathy, are made to seem like performances in which the doctor's self need play no part. Any other way of being a doctor is unimaginable. 
Hospital medicine figures in the book as a loveable yet limited universe. Doctors in the 1960s, as now, were focused on disease and had little to say about suffering, let alone death. They were, and still are, curiously silent about healing, recovery and rehabilitation. From within the hospital, people's ordinary lives were invisible. Medicine's hold on a young doctor's imagination makes it difficult to develop a coherent concept of human nature. For their own purposes, psychiatrists, psychologists, neurologists and general physicians and surgeons create deceptive boundaries that few patients would want. Neurologists appear to be technicians of the brain, psychiatrists of the mind and other doctors of the body.

Re-Membering a Medical Education

Becoming a Doctor

Time wants you dead. Not just you, but your friends, family, pets - everyone you've ever met...

'A beautifully written book about life and death: busts myths, explores the stories of science and history, and ultimately is rich and uplifting.' Dr Adam Rutherford

With over 17,000 known diseases affecting humans, and countless poisons, carcinogens and toxins in our environment, it's a miracle that our bodies manage to keep us alive. And that is, of course, if they don't betray us themselves, whether through cancers or autoimmune conditions.

Biomedical researcher Professor John Tregoning tells the unlikely story of how, against all odds, we manage to stay alive. Taking an organ-by-organ tour of the human body, Tregoning embarks on his own experimental quest, testing 'life-extending' diets and exercise regimes to separate fact from fad. Exploring the multitude of ways our bodies can kill us, from inherited genetic conditions, through heart attacks, arrythmias and angina, onto the delicate workings of the brain, Live Forever?&nbsp;offers compelling insight into how our bodies work, how we can best look after them - and ultimately live longer, healthier lives.

'I heartily recommend this deep dive into wellness... It turns out that none of us are getting out of here alive, but John has bravely put his mind and body on the line to discover the secrets of staying healthy and happy as we get older. A funny, fascinating and educative book.' Ben Willbond, co-creator of Ghosts

'The idea that a book about death and dying could be a delightful read seems ridiculous, and yet John Tregoning has pulled off this trick with humour, flair and elegance.' Nessa Carey, author of The Epigenetics Revolution

'An enjoyable and entertaining mixture of scientific facts about ageing and completely unscientific self-experimentation... recognizing that although none of us will live forever, there are ways we can improve our chances of living well while we are still around.' Dame Sarah Gilbert

Live Forever?

Handbook of Clinical Neurology

The evolution of neuroimmunotherapies with the concurrent progress in autoimmune neurology will introduce the book, followed by an update on "non-targeted" therapies highlighting the value of immunosuppressants, plasmapheresis, IVIg or hematopoietic bone marrow transplantation and their mode of action in autoimmune neurology. The new agents in each of these categories, along with biomarkers for therapeutic monitoring and the application of reliable scales in assessing response, will be covered. Chapters will discuss how neuroimmunotherapies work when key molecules and pathways associated with CNS or PNS tissue damage are targeted or inhibited. The volume will describe the approved agents targeting: 1) T-cell intracellular signaling pathways and molecules associated with antigen presentation; 2) B cells, B-cell trophic factors, and autoantibodies; 3) Fc receptor modulation; 4) complement; and 5) cytokines, cell adhesion and transmigration molecules. Didactic schemes and illustrations on how these drugs work in autoimmune neurological diseases will be provided in each chapter. The second part of the book will discuss the latest therapeutics for each major autoimmune neurological disease, aimed to provide a reliable, comprehensive and up-to-date source of information useful for clinical practice and education. Didactic and practical algorithms, a step-by step approach on how best to apply the most suitable therapies for a given state of the disease or proceed to escalation therapies will be provided. Treatment controversies and uncertainties will be authoritatively emphasized by scholars in each field. A chapter addressing potential immunotherapeutic approaches, now on the pipeline or on early trials, as future means of treating some neurodegenerative diseases will be included. Another chapter will cover the new and popular-although controversial -concept of treating autoimmune pain. The book discusses practical therapies with¿traditional immunosuppressants, steroids and IVIg. It describes targeted therapies with monoclonal antibodies or fusion proteins against B cells , T cells, complement, and FcRn, discussing what happens when key factors related to neurological autoimmunity are inhibited. The book provides a "how- to- do" approach for each of the major autoimmune diseases with algorithms and escalation therapies. Dedicated chapters will cover current therapies on encephalitis, NMOSD, Multiple sclerosis , autoimmune neuropathies, myopathies, neuromuscular junction disorders and neuroexcitability disorders like stiff person syndrome. The book is aimed for practitioners and academicians as a reliable and comprehensive source for applying neuroimmunotherapies and understanding their mechanisms.
