Book SynopsisECHNOLOGICAL PROSPECTS AND SOCIAL APPLICATIONS SET Coordinated by Bruno SalguesThere are many controversies with respect to health crisis management: the search for information on symptoms, misinformation on emerging treatments, massive use of collaborative tools by healthcare professionals, deployment of applications for tracking infected patients. The Covid-19 crisis is a relevant example about the need for research in digital communications in order to understand current health info communication.After an overview of the challenges of digital healthcare, this book offers a critical look at the organizational and professional limits of ICT uses for patients, their caregivers and healthcare professionals. It analyzes the links between ICT and ethics of care, where health communication is part of a global, humanistic and emancipating care for patients and caregivers. It presents new digitized means of communicating health knowledge that reveal, thanks to the Internet, a competition between biomedical expert knowledge and experiential secular knowledge.Table of ContentsPreface xiOlivier GALIBERT and Benoit CORDELIER Acknowledgments xxixBenoit CORDELIER and Olivier GALIBERT Author Biographies xxxi Introduction xxxv Benoit CORDELIER and Olivier GALIBERT Part 1.

New India Publishing Agency Goat Production and Health Management
Book SynopsisThe future of goats as a domestic animal appears to be promising due to their ongoing usefulness and ability to generate new information for sustainable and profitable maintenance. Compared to cattle or buffalo farming, goat farming requires less initial capital and maintenance costs. Moreover, goats have a higher reproductive rate than cattle or buffaloes. In addition, goats can thrive on marginal lands that may not be suitable for other livestock species. This book specifically focuses on goat production in India, but it also includes information from around the world. Goats have played a significant role in research and development programs aimed at poverty alleviation through the use of small ruminants. However, the results of research are of little use if they are not disseminated. Therefore, this book is an important part of the strategy for disseminating and promoting research results to benefit poor and under-resourced farmers. Overall, this publication is expected to serve as a valuable reference source for anyone with an interest in goats.

WW Norton & Co Fragmented
Book SynopsisAn award-winning physician-writer exposes how pervasive cracks in the health care system cost us time, energy, and lives—and how we can fix them.Trade Review"Yurkiewicz is working against the grain of American health care, in which patients are assumed to be consumers, not managers of it. . . . [Her] book is a detailed, moving portrait of what medicine could look like." -- Leah Libresco Sargeant - National Review"Illuminating case studies drive home the dire consequences of fragmentation . . . Persuasive and damning, this scathing indictment unsettles." -- Publishers Weekly (starred review)"Moving . . . Yurkiewicz’s poignant prose reads like a novel . . . An engaging read that paints an honest picture of how a broken system impacts patients and providers." -- Kirkus"Yurkiewicz makes a frightening and compelling case against a medical system that doesn’t promote—and often hinders—communication among medical caregivers, to the detriment of patients . . . An informative and sobering look at the state of patient care in the United States." -- Library Journal"Fragmented is a bravura feat of synthesis, showing how so many failings of America’s health care system are actually facets of the same horrible problem. It’s a call to arms, showing that said problem is intolerable and fixable. It’s an essential book, possessed of a ferocious urgency and anchored by Ilana Yurkiewicz’s stirring, compassionate writing." -- Ed Yong, New York Times best-selling author and winner of the Pulitzer Prize"A beautiful meditation on and exposé of the failures and opportunities in American health care. Ilana Yurkiewicz brings her singular voice—as a brilliant doctor scrabbling to provide top-notch care, a vulnerable daughter actively bridging gaps during her own father’s serious illness, and an expert observer of systems and policy—to this crucial book full of empathy, gripping stories, and hard-won wisdom about how to achieve better care for us all. I loved it." -- Lucy Kalanithi, MD, Stanford School of Medicine, and widow of Paul Kalanithi, author of When Breath Becomes Air"American health care is so technically advanced, the spawning ground for life-changing medical breakthroughs, yet it fails so many by being dysfunctional, absurdly costly, and uneven . . . Ilana Yurkiewicz combines lucid prose, astute observations as a frontline provider, and incredible empathy to dissect this paradox in an unforgettable way . . . An important book." -- Abraham Verghese, author of The Covenant of Water and Cutting for Stone"Urgent, timely, and eye-opening." -- Danielle Ofri, MD, PhD, author of When We Do Harm"A lucid diagnosis of the systemic problem that has resulted in our ‘broken’ health-care system. Yurkiewicz allows readers to see through a young doctor's eyes as the reality of fragmentation dawns during intensely emotional situations, infusing compelling narratives with humor and humanity, and making sense of inscrutable health policy issues that affect us all. Somehow, amid the chaos, Fragmented is able to find a glimmer of hope that is desperately needed." -- James Hamblin, MD, author of Clean"Fragmented is a riveting, impassioned narrative that details the Kafka-esque paradox of American medicine: Despite having access to more information than ever, our doctors seem to know less and less about us. What makes it so uplifting and inspiring is that Yurkiewicz, an oncologist who has witnessed this problem first-hand, is optimistic that these challenges can be overcome—and that a more compassionate, humane healthcare system is within reach." -- Seth Mnookin, New York Times best-selling author and professor of science writing, Massachusetts Institute of Technology"From the intimacy of the hospital wards and her relationships with her own patients, Yurkiewicz tells the compelling story of the razor-thin margins by which medical care is delivered successfully in the United States, and how easily people can slip through the cracks of our health system. A must-read." -- Mikkael A. Sekeres, MD, MS, author of Drugs and the FDA and When Blood Breaks Down
