Ophthalmology Made Easy
Eye emergencies may present in the GP surgery, A&E or an outpatient clinic, but few people outside of ophthalmology are confident about the management of eye problems. This book will give you the essential skills to: * perform an initial assessment * understand what you can manage yourself and how to do the basics * decide when you need to refer to ophthalmology. In addition, the book provides: * a glossary of common ophthalmic terminology and medications which will be invaluable when reviewing ophthalmology letters * a triage ready reckoner to help you sort the symptoms and decide how quickly you need to refer * a systems-based approach to highlight common conditions and then describes how to assess, investigate and manage each of them * a guide to the most common investigations and how to interpret the results. At all stages, symbols are used to highlight what can safely be undertaken in general practice and A&E, and when ophthalmologists should take over. Red flag boxes highlight

Bound By Words - ?? ????? ????
'Bound By Words' is a powerful collection of essays that offers a thought-provoking perspective on some of the most contentious issues of our time. Written by a passionate and insightful author, this book delves into topics ranging from politics and human rights to religion and society. Through a series of literary analysis essays, the author draws connections to issues from stories and poems discussed in class. The book also focuses on discussing lessons from Kalila wa Dimna as they relate to political leaders who are the intended audience of the book. What sets this book apart is the author's bold and unapologetic stance on the issues of Palestine and the United States. In her essays on Palestine, the author condemns the human rights violations and war crimes carried out by the Zionist state on a daily basis. Similarly, the essays on the United States reflect the injustices that the author sees as a resident of the country. These injustices involve racism in the capitalist system,
How We Grieve
If we wish to understand loss experiences we must learn details of survivors' stories. The new version of How We Grieve: Relearning the World tells in-depth tales of survival to illustrate the poignant disruption of life and suffering that loss entails. It shows how through grieving we overcome challenges, make choices, and reshape our lives. These intimate treatments of coping with loss address the needs of grieving people and those who hope to support and comfort them. The accounts promote understanding of grieving itself, encourage respect for individuality and the uniqueness of loss experiences, show how to deal with helplessness in the face of 'choiceless' events, and offer guidance for caregivers. The stories make it clear that grieving is not about living passively through stages or phases. We are not so alike when we grieve; our experiences are complex and richly textured. Nor is grieving about coming down with 'grief symptoms'. No one can treat us to make things better. No

Outlive
A groundbreaking manifesto on living better and longer that challenges the conventional medical thinking on aging and reveals a new approach to preventing chronic disease and extending long-term health, from a visionary physician and leading longevity expert 'One of the most important books you'll ever read.'--Steven D. Levitt, New York Times bestselling author of Freakonomics Wouldn't you like to live longer? And better? In this operating manual for longevity, Dr. Peter Attia draws on the latest science to deliver innovative nutritional interventions, techniques for optimizing exercise and sleep, and tools for addressing emotional and mental health. For all its successes, mainstream medicine has failed to make much progress against the diseases of aging that kill most people: heart disease, cancer, Alzheimer's disease, and type 2 diabetes. Too often, it intervenes with treatments too late to help, prolonging lifespan at the expense of healthspan, or quality of life. Dr. Attia

Det medeltida Ryssland
Europas växande intresse för Ryssland under tidigmodern tid hade flera orsaker. Främst gällde det frågor om ryssarnas förhållande till religionen. Katolikerna hade starka missionsintressen – ofta sammankopplade med både ekonomiska och militärstrategiska planer. Med tiden kom dock ekonomiska intressen att dominera. Det var de stora sjönationerna England och Holland som i första hand slogs om Ivan den förskräckliges ynnest. Genom de reseskildringar från Ryssland som trycktes i väst under 1500- och

Outlive - Lev Längre Bättre
Boken är oerhört faktaspäckad och innehåller en del medicinska termer, men den känns ändå inte svår eller tung ... Outlive är välskriven, intressant och passar en bred läsekrets med intresse för medicin och hälsa.BTJ Vill du leva ett långt, hälsosamt liv där du minimerat risken för allvarliga sjukdomar? Letar du efter en klar och koncis manual för hur du maximerar din nuvarande och framtida hälsa samtidigt som du är misstänksam mot restriktiva dieter och tillfälliga hälsotrender? Peter Attia är cancerläkaren som istället för att bota sjukdomar sadlade om och började arbeta med att förebygga dem. I den här boken samlar han alla de taktiker och tekniker som kan hjälpa fler än bara hans patienter till ett långt meningsfullt liv. Trots enorma medicinska landvinningar de senaste årtiondena har det inte gjorts några större framsteg ifråga om de fyra åldersrelaterade sjukdomar som fortfarande dödar flest människor: hjärt-kärlsjukdom, cancer, alzheimer och typ 2-diabetes. Mycket kan dock göras, menar Attia, för att förebygga dessa sjukdomar. Och tiden att börja är just nu – oavsett vilken ålder du befinner dig i. I Outlive – lev längre bättre får du veta i vilka fall motion kan vara mer effektivt än något läkemedel och exakt hur du ska träna för att uppnå maximal hälsoeffekt. Du lär dig också hur viktig både din sömn och ditt mentala välmående är för din fysiska hälsa och varför du bör skippa alla restriktiva dieter för att istället fokusera på vad just din kropp behöver. Outlive har toppat New York Times bästsäljarlista och hyllats av alla från Oprah Winfrey till forskare som Andrew Huberman och pulitzerprisvinnaren Siddhartha Mukherjee. Steven D Levitt, författare till Freakonomics, har kallat den för "en av de viktigaste böcker du någonsin kommer läsa".

Islam and Secularism : Vol 3
Written 40 years ago, Islam and Secularism is one of the most creative and original works of a Muslim thinker in the contemporary Muslim world. The author deals with fundamental problems faced by contemporary Muslims and provides real solutions, beginning with a discussion on 'The Contemporary Western Christian Background' in Chapter (I), followed by his analysis of the concepts (which he newly defines) of 'secular', 'secularization', and 'secularism' in Chapter (II). All this is then contrasted in Chapter (IV) of the book entitled 'Islam: The Concept of Religion and the Foundation of Ethics and Morality'. Based on all the preceding explanation, the author proceeds to analyze the Muslim 'dilemma' by declaring that it should be resolved primarily through what he calls the 'dewesternization of knowledge' or, conversely, the 'islamization of contemporary knowledge', an original concept conceived and elucidated by the author for the past five decades. Numerous original and profound ideas
