Product Description:
Fifteen to 20 years ago, physicians more or less treated everybody
the same way with two or three pills, and that's all they had to
offer. The clock was ticking while doctors waited until patients
were so sick they needed heart transplants. The medical landscape is
completely different today. Now doctors methodically dissect cases
of heart failure; they figure out the underlying issues. It's
critical to have a proper diagnosis, but it is equally important to
determine the cause of heart failure. Not all stories about patients
with heart failure have happy endings. But many do. Throughout this
book, readers will find case studies about patients who triumphed
over their diagnosis. Whether it's the patient, a family member, or
a friend confronting heart failure, this book can helps show the way
through the diagnosis and treatment. |

Product Description: These
never before published teaching stories of the yoga master Swami
Kripalu are at once down-to-earth and transcendent. The Swami was
fond of telling stories as a way of making his often subtle and
surprising points. For example, in a parable about mind control,
"The Demanding Daughter," we learn of a young spoiled woman who will
only marry on the condition that she can find a husband who will
allow her to strike him on the head seven times a day with her shoe.
Each story is set off by a particular yoga principle that the Swami
illustrates through the story. |

Product Description: The
causal point of the things that occur in our everyday experience
isn t in the actions of others, but within each of us. During our
early years, we are imprinted by the emotional condition of those
responsible for us. Their emotional state overlays the essence of
who we are, so that we learn to behave like them instead of growing
up to be ourselves. |

Product Description:
Members of the bleeding heart family, such as the well-known Chinese
bleeding heart, have long been among the best-loved flowers of the
perennial border. In recent years, however, excitement about this
group has reached fever pitch with the introduction of dozens of
stunning new discoveries, particularly among the genus Corydalis.
Super-hardy and adorned with blossoms in a spectrum of jewel-like
colors, their popularity has surged to new heights. Despite this
fame, however, and the long-standing interest in the bleeding heart
family, little has been written about these versatile and easily
grown plants until now. This thorough guide for gardeners and
botanists covers all the cultivated species, hybrids, and cultivars
of Corydalis, Dicentra, and allied genera in the bleeding
heart family. |

Product Description:
This straightforward volume examines today’s
health care picture in human and financial terms, focusing on the
three leading causes of death in America—cardiovascular
disease/stroke, diabetes, and cancer—and four debilitating
conditions that confound both patients and professionals—arthritis,
osteoporosis, fibromyalgia, and low back pain.
Morewitz applies current figures and expert
future projections to the often-vague concepts of chronically ill
patients and associated spiraling costs of care. Composite case
studies put a needed human face on these growing populations and
their needs. The book’s consistent format and the author’s lucid
style make it as accessible as it is clinically useful.
Up-to-date, real-world coverage for each disease
includes:
- Risk factors, including socioeconomic status,
race/ethnicity, gender, and age
- Typical disease processes and psychosocial
symptoms
- Treatment options and rehabilitation outcomes
- Stress, quality of life issues, and coping
strategies
- The impact of health care disparities on
illness and disability
- Patient education and self-management
techniques
Chronic Disease and Health Care describes the
realities of diseases and their treatment with great clarity and
insight, to give practitioners better understanding of patient
populations and researchers access to critical health areas. In
addition, the book is imperative reading for health care
administrators involved in resource allocation, program planning,
and cost reduction. |
