When Life Comes to a Standstill - The Surgeon Who Touches the Hearts of His Patients

Shirley Michaela Seul, Ehsan Natour

Beschreibung

For a More Human Medicine

How do we deal with people, including ourselves, who have fallen out of their normal, undamaged life? We are not prepared for that – and heart surgeon Ehsan Natour intends to change that. During his years of working in hospitals, thousands of examples have taught him to always perceive the human being rather than just a “case”. This has considerable implications for the healing process and the way in which we master a crisis. If the doctor finds such a soulful approach to the patient, they will become a team and will together take care not only of a sick organ but of the whole human being.

Using the example of a heart operation, Dr. Natour leads us through the complete process of a crisis. For this purpose, he has developed a graph in which we can “locate” ourselves. Crises, after all, usually begin long before we notice them – and often last longer than we want to believe. The author navigates us to through the phase in which life seems to come to a standstill. His approach can lead to a win-win situation for everyone: hospital personnel gaining meaningful experiences, patients getting back on their feet faster, relatives being recognized as vital support rather than being overlooked – a therapy for our sick health system. An important book in the ethical discussion of the healthcare profession.

Blue - A History of Postpartum...

Rachel Louise Moran

New motherhood is often seen as a joyful moment in a woman's life; for some women, it is also their lowest moment. For much of the twentieth century, popular and medical voices blamed women who had emotional and mental distress after childbirth for their own suffering. By the end of the century, though, women with postpartum mental illnesses sought to take charge of this narrative. In Blue: A History of Postpartum Depression in America, Rachel Louise Moran explores the history of the naming and mainstreaming of postpartum depression. Coalitions of maverick psychiatrists, psychologists, and women who themselves had survived substantial postpartum distress fought to legitimize and normalize women's experiences. They argued that postpartum depression is an objective and real illness and fought to avoid it being politicized alongside other fraught medical and political battles over women's health. 
 
 
 
Based on insightful oral histories and in-depth archival research, Blue reveals a secret history of American motherhood, women's political activism, and the rise of postpartum depression advocacy amid an often-censorious conservative culture. By breaking new ground with the first book-length history of postpartum mental illness in the twentieth century, Moran brings mothers' battles with postpartum depression out of the shadows and into the light.
