Anal Surgery for General Surgeons - A Handbook of Benign Common Ano-Rectal Disorders

Norman A. Blumberg

Summary

The author was driven to write this book for several reasons. It is his belief, based on personal experience, that the subject matter, a common phenomenon, is largely ignored at worst or badly taught at best with predictably bad or uncertain outcomes. While this book is aimed mainly at General Surgeons who do not regularly treat or operate on these cases it may also be of interest to others such as colorectal surgeons, trainee surgeons or even medical students. It re¬flects my personal experience on three continents with several thousand such patients, over more than fifty years of surgical practice. Hopefully its message will help to fill existing gaps and many patients will bene t. Graduated MB BCh (equivalent MD) University of Witwatersrand Johannesburg S Africa 1950.

Lupus Antidote

Craig Beck

Millions of people around the world have been diagnosed with incurable autoimmune diseases like Lupus. Debilitating conditions that make us tired, ill, and miserable. The only solution the medical industry offers are side-effect riddled maintenance drugs such as steroids and painkillers.Getting a formal diagnosis of Lupus is often a lengthy and challenging process. Many never get a medical confirmation of what is happening to their mind and body at all! Countless individuals live in constant pain and discomfort because they incorrectly assume all their health problems are the natural result of aging.Unfortunately, Craig Beck joined this ill-health demographic at the age of 48. After suffering months of severe symptoms, eventually, he too got handed the autoimmunity life sentence. However, rather than accept the hand as it was dealt. He remembered that the best medicine for a long and healthy life is found at the end of your fork, not the doctor's prescription pad.Craig decided to fall back on his research into natural medicine. He designed a diet and lifestyle that made inflammation the enemy and target. A process that would show amazing success at pushing Lupus firmly into near-permanent remission.In this special SLE addition of the Autoimmune Antidote, you will gain valuable insight into the new, natural approach that can help you prevent and maybe even reverse the life-limiting symptoms of Lupus and other inflammatory health problems.www.CraigBeck.com

Owen Jones

Gout is a painful and chronic form of arthritis that affects millions of people worldwide. It is caused by the build-up of uric acid crystals in the joints, leading to inflammation and intense pain.

In this comprehensive guide, we will delve into the history of gout, its science and diagnosis, the different types of gout, and how to prevent and manage gout flares.

The Great Derangement - Climate...

Amitav Ghosh

A “concise and utterly enlightening” look at why we can’t wrap our minds around climate change (Publishers Weekly). Are we deranged? Award-winning essayist and novelist Amitav Ghosh argues that future generations may think so. How else to explain our imaginative failure in the face of global warming? The Great Derangement examines our inability—at the level of literature, history, and politics—to grasp the scale and violence of climate change. The extreme nature of today’s climate events, Ghosh asserts, make them peculiarly resistant to current modes of thinking and imagining. This is particularly true of serious literary fiction: hundred-year storms and freakish tornadoes simply feel too improbable; they are automatically consigned to genres like science fiction. In the writing of history, too, the crisis has sometimes led to gross simplifications, but the carbon economy is a tangled story with many contradictory and counterintuitive elements. Ghosh ends by suggesting that politics, much like literature, has become a matter of personal moral reckoning rather than an arena of collective action, and that limitation comes at great cost. The climate crisis asks us to imagine other forms of human existence—a task to which fiction, Ghosh argues, is the best suited of all cultural forms. His book serves as a great writer’s summons to confront the most urgent task of our time, and “makes the case that climate solutions can’t be left to scientists, technocrats, and politicians” (Los Angeles Review of Books). “Perhaps the most penetrating cultural critic of a new age defined by climate change and the strange, inadequate, and often self-deluding ways we process its transformations in our storytelling.”—New York Magazine “Resistance to the grim realities of climate change is so widespread that the crisis barely figures in literary fiction, notes writer Amitav Ghosh…The solution, he argues, lies in collective action as well as scientific and governmental involvement.”—Nature

Why Do We Have To Wear Face Masks?

Elizabeth Romanski, Ann Gadzikowski

The global COVID-19 crisis has put a lot of aspects of our daily lives on pause, but if you have a young child at home you've probably found one thing that has only escalated: all their questions! Life during a pandemic is new for us all, but this time is even more confusing for children. Their curious little minds have been internalizing and reacting to lots of big changes, wondering why you've been spending more time at home, why you're always talking to your computer screen, why they can't see their friends in person, and why oh why do they have to wear a mask outside. On our very first Raising Curious Learners episode, hosts Ann and Elizabeth discuss children and protective face coverings, and speak with expert Tara Tuchel for advice on normalizing this new situation.
