Vandenhoeck & Ruprecht GmbH & Co KG Handbuch der Krankenhausseelsorge
Book SynopsisDas Handbuch nimmt eine Standortbestimmung gegenwärtiger Seelsorge im Krankenhaus vor. Dargestellt werden Zielsetzungen, Konzepte und Arbeitsweisen der Seelsorge in der medizinisch-ökonomischen Institution Krankenhaus - aus Sicht von praktizierenden Seelsorgerinnen, Supervisoren, in der Aus- und Fortbildung Tätigen ebenso wie Forschenden und Lehrenden aus Theologie, zentralen Bezugswissenschaften sowie aus Leitungs- und Trägerperspektive. Es bietet sowohl einen Überblick ëber Praxis und Theorie aktueller Krankenhausseelsorge als auch vertiefte Einblicke in konkrete Kontexte und Situationen.Das Buch schließt dabei an das Konzept der vorherigen Auflagen von Michael Klessmann an: Es geht um die Bedeutung der Seelsorge fër Patienten und Patientinnen, fër deren Bewältigung von Krankheit, Leiden und Sterben, aber auch um ihre Bedeutung fër das Personal des Krankenhauses und die Institution insgesamt. Schwerpunkte bilden dabei exemplarische Arbeitsfelder auf der einen sowie Krankenhausseelsorge als kirchliches Handeln auf der anderen Seite. Das Buch nimmt aktuelle Entwicklungen und Veränderungen in Kirche und Gesellschaft, Gesundheitswesen und Gesundheitswissenschaften, Praktischer Theologie sowie Seelsorgetheorie auf. Traugott Roser bietet damit all jenen Klärung und Orientierung, die sich das erste Mal mit den Eigenheiten seelsorgerlicher Praxis in klinischen Einrichtungen befassen, ebenso wie denjenigen, die mitten in der beruflichen Praxis stehen, und nicht zuletzt Verantwortliche in Kirche und Gesundheitswesen.

Book SynopsisDas Buch richtet sich insbesondere an Führungskräfte, welche sich leicht umsetzungsfähige Hilfen und anregende Inspirationen für Veränderungsprojekte innerhalb ihres Tätigkeitsbereichs wünschen. Eine intensive und zeitaufwendige Aufbereitung der Grundlagenwerke zum Thema Change Management und Wirtschaftspsychologie soll der Zielgruppe bei knappen Ressourcen im Arbeitsalltag erspart bleiben. Ziel der Autoren ist es, den interessierten LeserInnen eine Wissensquelle zu bieten, die sowohl als praktisches Nachschlagewerk, wie auch (mithilfe einer Fabel) als unterhaltende Wissenslektüre für Zwischendurch genutzt werden kann.

Es lässt namhafte Experten aus dem Managementbereich zu Wort kommen, die auf der Grundlage ihrer praktischen Erfahrungen wertvolle Ratschläge zum Thema Change beitragen.

The University of Chicago Press Ancestors and Antiretrovirals
Book SynopsisAs Archbishop Desmond Tutu has noted, AIDS is South Africa's new apartheid. This title traces the historical shifts in health policy after apartheid and describes their effects, detailing, in particular, the changing relationship between biomedical and indigenous health care, both at the national and the local level.Trade Review"Claire Laurier Decoteau is at the forefront of the new global sociology. Her articulation of analysis with ethnographic detail is expert, yet reads effortlessly; her ability to view the political complexities of South Africa from a new theoretical angle is admirable; and her depth of understanding about what is at stake in the fight over AIDS is relevant to anyone who wonders how power works all over the globe. Ancestors and Antiretrovirals will be an iconic text for a new generation of global work, and marks the emergence of a bold new theoretical voice in sociology."

The University of Chicago Press AIDS Doesnt Show Its Face Inequality Morality and
Book SynopsisAIDS and Africa are indelibly linked in popular consciousness, but despite widespread awareness of the epidemic, much of the story remains hidden beneath a superficial focus on condoms, sex workers, and antiretrovirals. Africa gets lost in this equation. The author offers a powerful reversal, using AIDS as a lens through which to view Africa.Trade Review"Drawing on more than twenty years of fieldwork, Smith effectively uses popular reactions to the HIV/AIDS epidemic in Nigeria as a lens through which to observe and analyze social change there. He successfully shows that things are not as simple as they might seem to outsiders-even the best-intentioned outsiders-and that much of the public health messaging that emphasizes individual responsibility is simply off the mark."

The University of Chicago Press Organizing Locally How the New Decentralists
Book SynopsisFrom the cherries we buy, to the grocer who sells them, to the school where our child unpacks them for lunch, we express resurgent faith in decentralizing the institutions and businesses that arrange our daily lives. The author reveals the key cornerstones of social organization on which effective decentralization depends.Trade Review"After eras dominated by economics talk, it is refreshing to dip into a vision in which culture and social psychology play central roles. This is in some ways a call to arms, but it is not as didactic or gloomy as those to which we've become accustomed. It stirs the pot of what have become somewhat stale debates, and by incorporating such a broad range of cases, extends its relevance far and wide."

Book SynopsisAs the demand for blood and organs has grown, the value of a system that depends solely on gifts has been called into question. This title offers a fresh perspective on this ethical dilemma, by examining the social organization of blood and organ donation in Europe and the United States.Trade Review"In Last Best Gifts, Kieran Healy offers a timely, sophisticated, and original analysis of the complex organizational terrain of blood and organ donation. In doing so, he unpacks the crucial role that organizations and institutions play in creating the contexts for, and the meanings of, giving. His analysis suggests that the relationship between gifts and commodities, between giving and selling, is more complex than many scholars acknowledge." - Wendy Espeland, Northwestern University"

The University of Chicago Press Contesting Medical Confidentiality
Book SynopsisMedical confidentiality is an essential cornerstone of effective public health systems, and for centuries societies have struggled to maintain the illusion of absolute privacy. In this age of health databases and increasing connectedness, however, the confidentiality of patient information is rapidly becoming a concern at the forefront of worldwide ethical and political debate. In Contesting Medical Confidentiality, Andreas-Holger Maehle travels back to the origins of this increasingly relevant issue. He offers the first comparative analysis of professional and public debates on medical confidentiality in the United States, Britain, and Germany during the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, when traditional medical secrecy first came under pressure from demands of disclosure in the name of public health. Maehle structures his study around three representative questions of the time that remain salient today: Do physicians have a privilege to refuse court orders to reveal confidential patient details? Is there a medical duty to report illegal procedures to the authorities? Should doctors breach confidentiality in order to prevent the spread of disease?Considering these debates through a unique historical perspective, Contesting Medical Confidentiality illuminates the ethical issues and potentially grave consequences that continue to stir up public debate.

University of Chicago Press Contested Medicine Cancer Research and the
Book SynopsisIn the 1960s, University of Cincinnati radiologist Eugene Saenger infamously conducted human experiments on patients with advanced cancer to examine how total body radiation could treat the disease. Using the Saenger case as a means to reconsider cold war medical trials, this book examines the tensions at the heart of clinical studies of the time.Trade Review"What is truly original about Contested Medicine is that, by using the science studies approach applied to a specific historical case, Kutcher shows not only how ethics were constitutive of the shape of experimental work on cancer at its inception but how both of these things were mutually changed over time." - Christopher Lawrence, Wellcome Trust Centre for the History of Medicine, University College London"

The University of Chicago Press The Province of Affliction Illness and the
Book SynopsisTrade Review"An important contribution to the historiography of illness and public health in early America. . . . Mutschler’s approach allows him to successfully balance what was representative of the era and what was distinctive about this particular location under his purview. Moreover, Mutschler’s style and emphasis on narrative makes the book accessible for those who do not specialize in the history of medicine. His work integrates illness with other forms of lived experience and demonstrates to his audience the merit of considering sickness in New England society and as an important lens for all historians of early America." * William and Mary Quarterly *“Mutschler examines in great detail, and with admirable skill, how sickness affected life in early Massachusetts. . . Mutschler is a fluid writer, with an admirable mastery of the relevant primary and secondary sources. . . Mutschler capably enlarges and deepens our understanding of daily life in New England and how the health safety net may have contracted rather than expanded over time as responsibility for health care moved away the individual and home to corporate and governmental resources.” * Social History of Medicine *“Families struggling to care for loved ones. Governments determined to cut back on medical costs. Populations quarantined to stop the spread of disease. These scenes from colonial New England are as current as today’s news. TheProvince of Affliction reveals a world surprisingly familiar, yet profoundly different from our own. In depicting this world, Mutschler is original, ambitious, masterful in his command of diverse sources, and a lively and fluent writer. He also forecasts the ideological origin of our current plight: the ethos of individualism that emerged in the wake of the Revolution, which built a new world of freedom and risk without a social safety net.” * Robert A. Gross, University of Connecticut *“Timely for its historical reflections on the challenges posed by disease, The Province of Affliction documents the resilient responses of early New Englanders to the regular occurrences of serious illness. Mutschler provides a poignant and pointed account of a world in which colonial settlers regularly stretched their capacities to tend to the sick and dying.” * Kathleen Brown, University of Pennsylvania *“The Province of Affliction provides a new lens into the experiences of New England colonists that broadens and deepens past scholarship. While New Englanders may have lived a long time, boy, did they suffer! Mutschler’s fascinating book is an eye-opening examination and raises a host of questions about how we measure and evaluate medical progress.” * David K. Rosner, Columbia University *“A work noteworthy for both what it has to teach about its designated historical period as well as about some of the most pressing challenges of that time that we continue to face today.” * The Well-Read Naturalist *Table of ContentsIntroductionOverviews 1.
