A social revolutionary who has devoted his career to giving away health care, Patch is the founder of the Gesundheit Institute, a home-based medical practice in West Virginia that has treated more than 15,000 people for free. Whether it means putting on a red clown nose for sick children or taking a disturbed patient outside to roll down a hill with him, Adams does whatever is necessary to help heal. This is the story of Adams's lifetime quest to transform the health care system. Gaining supporters across the country, the Gesundheit Institute is now building a free, full-scale hospital that will be open to anyone in the world. Ambitious? Yes. Impossible? Not for those who know and work with Patch.

Very-good+, clean copy of this over-sized medical book. Stated THIRD EDITION. Covers show light wear (NO tears). Illustrated throughout. 287 pages. NO writing, marks or tears inside book. Tight spine, bright pages. Annotation The book contains black-and-white illustrations.

The book includes information on preparing for office emergencies, neonatal emergencies, injury prevention in EMS-C, and the assessment triangle in respiratory distress and shock. Eileen Klein: This book provides a useful and systematic approach to the initial assessment and management of ill and injured children. The purpose is to provide a framework for the initial management of ill and injured children in order to stabilize their condition and prevent deterioration of their clinical status. This is not a manual of pediatric cardiopulmonary resuscitation. In fact, the goal is to teach physicians how to prevent deterioration to a state that requires cardiopulmonary resuscitation. Physicians will gain maximum benefit from this text if they already have an understanding of pediatric cardiopulmonary resuscitation. The target audience for this text is emergency medicine physicians, pediatric emergency medicine physicians, and pediatricians. It is also a useful book for family physicians and residents or fellows in all of these specialties. The fourth edition follows the same organization as the previous edition, and is updated in the text and references. It provides a useful and informative approach. The addition of a chapter on neonatal emergencies is a plus. The chapter on office emergencies has been greatly expanded from the previous edition and is very useful for the practitioner of pediatrics or family medicine. The illustrations of procedures are superb. This is a text for all physicians who care for seriously ill or injured children. It is concise, thorough, and easy to read. This new edition is updated and expanded and is an important addition to the library shelves.

Understanding Alzheimer's offers similar emotional help as well as practical support ideas and state-of-the-art information on diagnosis, treatment, and management. Editor Aronson, publications editor and education consultant of the Alzheimer's Disease and Related Disorders Association (ADRDA), has put together a collection of essays by 20 specialists whose writing styles range from the pedantic to the emotive.
