Taylor & Francis Bed Number Ten
Book SynopsisA patient''s personal view of long term care.Seen through the eyes of a patient totally paralyzed with Guillain-Barré syndrome, this moving book takes you through the psychological and physical pain of an eleven month hospital stay. BED NUMBER TEN reads like a compelling novel, but is entirely factual.You will meet:The ICU staff who learned to communicate with the paralyzed woman - and those who did not bother.The physicians whose visits left her baffled about her own case.The staff and physicians who spoke to her and others who did not recognize her presence.The nurse who tucked Sue tightly under the covers, unaware that she was soaking with perspiration.The nurse who took the time to feed her drop by drop, as she slowly learned how to swallow again.The physical therapist who could read her eyes and spurred her on to move again as if the battle were his own.In these pages, which reveal the caring, the heroism, andTrade Review"...offers invaluable messages for anyone dealing with dependency, suffering, loneliness, helplessness, or acute or chronic debilitating diseases - in short, for anyone taking care of others. No one reading this book will ever again regard the helpless or incommunicative patient the same way."- New England Journal of Medicine"It is a powerful book, which - thankfully -has a happy ending. But the sadness outweighs the gladness, especially where Baier’s medical care is concerned. Perhaps BED NUMBER TEN should be required reading at medical schools." -Macon Telegraph and News "Baier gives us a palpable sense of the course of the disease, the pain endured, the depression and loneliness...sincere and honest..." -The Boston Herald "...if I or someone I care about were felled by Guillain-Barre Syndrome, BED NUMBER TEN is the handbook I’d recommend for battling through the physical anguish, the emotional terror and the mental strain of coming back from G.B.S...." -Des Moines Register "I cannot begin to explain the importance of this book for health care professionals as well as the general public. As a nurse educator, this book has had profound impact on me as I attempt to teach students the art of caring for acute and chronically ill persons." -RN, MS (Nursing College) "The story of her illness is interesting reading and a reminder of how fragile good health is and how cherished it should be." -Sue Allison, United Press International "Baier’s chronicle of courage offers hope to victims of the catastrophic disease." -Publishers Weekly

Taylor & Francis Ltd Psychosis In The Inner City
Book SynopsisThe epigenetic puzzle which is schizophrenia, forms the focus of this Monograph, But The Authors Do Not Sit Comfortably With The Notion That this is an entity. Rather, they approach the non-affective psychoses on a broad epidemiological base, ascertaining cases of so-called functional psychoses over a quarter of a century. They examine admission policies, showing that patients are admitted to hospital on the grounds of their particular presentation, rather than their diagnosis. They explore Differences Between Males And Females With Psychotic Disorders, And Show that gender is a more powerful influence than diagnosis. They investigate trends over time, and find that demography is the major influence. Looking at criminality, they show that the factors predicting criminal Behaviour In Individuals With Psychotic Illness Are Much The Same In those without psychotic illness. And they trace the longitudinal course of illness, putting paid to the schizophrenia/manic depression dichotomy.; ThiTable of ContentsPreface by Assen Jablensky. Abstract.
