Summary

Frostbite Recovery Techniques offers a practical guide to managing frostbite, focusing on both immediate care in challenging environments and long-term rehabilitation. It stresses that effective initial treatment is key to minimizing tissue loss and lasting impairment. Did you know that historical approaches to frostbite often involved early amputation, while current methods focus on rapid rewarming and preserving tissue viability? This book addresses ongoing debates about optimal rewarming rates and supplementary treatments, providing a balanced perspective based on scientific evidence and clinical experience.

 
The book emphasizes a phased, adaptive strategy that combines rapid rewarming, continuous monitoring of tissue health, and carefully adjusted rehabilitation. It uniquely integrates field management with comprehensive rehabilitation, moving beyond simple protocols to advocate for personalized treatment plans.

 
Organized into three parts, the book first covers frostbite basics and field management, then explores rewarming techniques and pain control, and concludes with tailored rehabilitation plans for mobility, wound care, and long-term complication management. This approach ensures a thorough understanding of frostbite recovery, making it a valuable resource for healthcare professionals and individuals in cold environments.

Not What the Doctor Ordered -...

Jeffrey C. Bauer

This twenty-fifth anniversary edition completely updates the powerful insights and policy recommendations of Not What the Doctor Ordered, first published in 1993 by renowned healthcare futurist and medical economist the author. It presents specific solutions to serious problems of cost, quality, access, and outcomes by allowing all Americans to purchase services directly from caregivers who provide an expanding array of medical services at least as well as physicians—at lower cost. 
 
Focusing on new realities of the twenty-first century, the author shows not only why giving consumers the right to choose advanced practitioners is the top priority for improving our overpriced, underperforming medical care delivery system, but also how to make the necessary changes. As he clearly and concisely explains from medical and economic perspectives, the key is eliminating physicians' monopoly powers over advanced practice nurses, clinical pharmacists, physical therapists, clinical psychologists, and other advanced practice (AP) health professionals who now rival physicians in scientific knowledge and caregiving skills within well-defined scopes of practice regulated by state governments.

A Very Convenient Warming - How...

Gregory Wrightstone

Learn about the enormous benefits that are accruing to humanity from modest warming and increasing carbon dioxide. By nearly every metric, Earth’s ecosystems are thriving, and the human condition is improving. This notion of a prospering planet is entirely contrary to the claims of a climate crisis and looming disaster around every corner proclaimed by the Climate Industrial Complex.
In this audiobook we will explore these benefits and learn that extreme weather events are not increasing, how we are feeding the planet’s growing population through expanded crop growth and that modest warming is saving lives.
This audiobook, A Very Convenient Warming, is separated into three sections:The first section, titled Basic Climate Facts, is an expansion and update of Inconvenient Facts’ exploration of data concerning temperature and carbon dioxide. In it, we look at both the very recent and very long-term changes in both. This review clearly exposes that claims of unusual and unprecedented warming are erroneous and that hysteria over increases in CO2 are unwarranted. We also take a close look at the relationship between CO2 and temperature and find nothing of concern.
In the second section, Humanity and Climate: Blessed Warmth, Horrific Cold, we review the strong relationship between the histories of humanity and temperature. In it, we find that past warm periods were warmer than today and correlated to the rise of great empires and civilizations. These warmer times of plenty were called “climate optima” before the rampant politization of climate science. The corollary to this were the cold periods that were horrific. Each cooling period was related to crop failure, famine, pestilence, and mass depopulation. History tells us that we should fear the cold and welcome the warmth.
In the final section, Life Is Good, And Getting Better, you will learn that the various climate crises are, in fact, simply lies created to spread fear of a nonexistent problem. In this section we explore the many benefits that are improving the human condition and leading to thriving ecosystems.
My hope is that I have presented enough material in this audiobook for you to confidently assess and evaluate the various claims made by the proponents of a climate crisis. Make up your own mind, for that is the scientific process.

The Elements of Marie Curie -...

Dava Sobel

The acclaimed Pulitzer Prize finalist and #1 New York Times bestselling author of Galileo’s Daughter crafts a luminous chronicle of the most famous woman in the history of science, and the untold story of the remarkable young women trained in her laboratory 
 
“Even now, nearly a century after her death, Marie Curie remains the only female scientist most people can name,” writes Dava Sobel at the opening of her shining portrait of the sole Nobel laureate decorated in two separate fields of science—Physics in 1903 with her husband, Pierre, and Chemistry by herself in 1911. And yet, as brilliant and creative as she was in the laboratory, Marie Curie was equally memorable outside it. Grieving Pierre’s untimely death in 1906, she took his place as professor of physics at the Sorbonne, devotedly raised two brilliant daughters, drove a van she outfitted with X-ray equipment to the front lines of World War I, befriended Albert Einstein and other luminaries of twentieth-century physics, won support from two US presidents, and inspired generations of young women to pursue science as a way of life.  
 
As Sobel did so masterfully in her portrait of Galileo through the prism of his daughter, she approaches Marie Curie from a unique angle, narrating her remarkable life of discovery and fame alongside the women who became her legacy—from France’s Marguerite Perey, who discovered the element francium, and Norway’s Ellen Gleditsch, to Mme. Curie’s elder daughter, Irène, winner of the 1935 Nobel Prize in Chemistry. For decades the only woman in the room at international scientific gatherings that probed new theories about the interior of the atom, Marie Curie traveled far and wide, despite constant illness, to share the secrets of radioactivity, a term she coined. Her two triumphant tours of the United States won her admirers for her modesty even as she was mobbed at every stop; her daughters, in Ève’s later recollection, “discovered all at once what the retiring woman with whom they had always lived meant to the world.” 
 
With the consummate skill that made bestsellers of Longitude and Galileo’s Daughter, and the appreciation for women in science at the heart of The Glass Universe, Dava Sobel has authored a radiant biography and a masterpiece of storytelling, illuminating the life and enduring influence of one of the most consequential figures of our time.
