Book SynopsisCancer diagnosis and treatment doesn't have to be a passive experience, and it shouldn't be. Dr. Kathryn Schmitz's Moving Through Cancer introduces a 21-day program of strength training and exercise for cancer prevention and recovery. Go from diagnosis to thriving with this empowering guide to using strength training and exercise to improve your mental and physical health before, during, and after cancer diagnosis and treatment. This groundbreaking program will show you how to use exercise and movement to: Recover more quickly from surgery Withstand chemotherapy (or other drug treatments) or radiation with fewer side effects Bounce back to daily life following cancer treatments Prevent loss of function or fitness due to treatment Return to work more quickly or stay at work throughout treatment Protect against late side effects of treatment that come years after diagnosis Leading exercise oncology researcher Dr. Kathryn Schmitz shows you how to prepare for cancer treatment and begin regularly exercising in just 21 days using five key steps: Move, Lift, Eat, Sleep, and Log. Both informative and practical, Moving Through Cancer explains the science of healing and prevention and delivers a paradigm-shifting message for patients, doctors, and caregivers about using exercise to live with and beyond cancer. FOR READERS OF: Anticancer Living and The Cancer-Fighting Kitchen. A PRACTITIONER AND CAREGIVER: Dr. Kathryn Schmitz is a pracademic (practitioner + academic) and a caregiver: In 2010, the publication of one of her trials in The New England Journal of Medicine and the Journal of the American Medical Association overturned years of entrenched dogma and conventional wisdom that told breast cancer survivors to avoid upper body exercise. In 2016, Dr. Schmitz's wife, Sara, was diagnosed with stage 3 squamous cell carcinoma—she is currently NED (no evidence of disease) and cancer free. Moving Through Cancer is inspired by Dr. Schmitz's professional and personal experience with cancer. HELPS PATIENTS AND CAREGIVERS TO COMBAT THE POWERLESSNESS OF THE CANCER JOURNEY: Dr. Schmitz's empowering message will not only resonate with anyone who has been diagnosed with cancer but with their family and loved ones as well. Dr. Schmitz is able to give life back to readers by providing results that include better sleep, better sex, less chemo brain, reduced nausea, and improved recovery. PARADIGM-SHIFTING PROTOCOL: Moving Through Cancer is the center of Dr. Schmitz's campaign to have doctors prescribing exercise to cancer patients as common practice by 2029. THE FIRST MAINSTREAM EXERCISE-FOR-CANCER BOOK: Until now, exercise-for-cancer books have been limited to academic approaches or one-cancer-specific (breast) or one-exercise specific (yoga, pilates) books. Moving Through Cancer is for all cancer patients and survivors and their caregivers. GREAT FOR THE CLASSROOM: Students and teachers will want to use these techniques in their classrooms to provide a better understanding of how to treat cancer patients. Perfect for: 18+, Health enthusiasts, rehab, exercise, academia, medical professionals

Book SynopsisTrade ReviewNow in its fourth edition this text is a must for all physiotherapy students. The chapters are well laid out, and all of the information is explained in an easily understandable way. This new edition provides the most up to date information for clinical practice from paediatrics through to the elderly. Chapter six is particularly useful, it provides the reader with case studies and then works through a logical way of problem solving along with introducing the reader to specific outcome measures. All in all a must have text!!!! - Laura Culpan, Physiotherapy Student, University of Bradford This book is a must have for respiratory learning as it is clear and concise and contains both adults and paediatric care. The clear diagrams make it easier to learn and the chapters cover core subjects for example assessments, techniques, paediatrics, ventilation and many more. Throughout the authors have made small summary physio points which will be useful when revising for a particular topic. The authors have also used flow charts and pictures to put across some of the information which is very useful for visual learners. I would very much recommend this book as it contains all of the information needed for respiratory at university and during your career. - Charlotte Barrett, Physiotherapy Student, Cardiff University, UK. Overall this is a good all-round, evidence based resource to use whilst studying or if newly qualified that covers all the main aspects of respiratory and cardiac physiotherapy. It is a great place to start when writing case studies in this field. This book is structured in the familiar style that we have come to know Elsevier for: a logical and clear design that is well laid out with the text presented in a variety of formats and supported with photographs, drawings and diagrams. The sections covering surgery, again provide good information for the student, particularly things like commonly used drugs and side effects, terminology and common procedures that are likely to be encountered. Finally, there are a number of handy images stored online that can be used in your presentations but perhaps this facility would have been better with a few more resources available, such as quizzes or tests to assess knowledge. - Linda Wilkinson, Physiotherapy Student, University of Southampton, UK. As a 1st year physiotherapy student, I've been able to use this book to understand the pathophysiology of cardiorespiratory problems as well as their clinical management. It's also well structured, beginning with the assessment of a cardiorespiratory patient and covering assessment tests and techniques and their interpretation. I also like that it has separate sections for paediatrics and adults and also has a good overview of types of surgery. I feel that this book is not only useful to me now but will be essential when I go on placement, as a reference to clarify and build on my day-to-day learning. I would recommend this text to anyone looking for a good overall cardiorespiratory text. - Mayuri Butchart, Physiotherapy Student, King's College London, UK. "I found this text book useful, informative and a great aid to my first practice placement."

Book SynopsisThe book offers a comprehensive and up-to-date guide to the cutting edge arthroscopic transosseous techniques for the treatment of rotator cuff tears, which are gradually taking over from the common open surgical approach, defined as the gold standard for RCR. With the help of numerous figures, it presents step by step a novel all-arthroscopic anchorless transosseous suture technique that is less invasive and easier to perform. After discussing the etiopathogenesis, histopathology and radiological classification of rotator cuff tears, the book reviews all possible arthroscopic procedures and explores in detail suture management, describing single and double tunnel options. It also examines the complications and post-operative rehabilitation and imaging, while the closing chapter addresses the economic aspects of daily use. Intended primarily for arthroscopic surgeons interested in the field of shoulder joint repair, this exhaustive guide is also a valuable resource for residents and shoulder specialists.Table of Contents1 Rotator cuff tear: etiopathogenesis and histopathology.- 2 Rotator cuff tear: classification system.- 3 Rotator cuff tear: imaging (radiological classification).- 4 Transosseous rotator cuff repair: rationale.- 5 Transosseous and Transosseous equivalent rotator cuff repair: the difference.- 6 Transosseous tunnel: which arthroscopic device?.- 7 Transosseous rotator cuff repair: which arthroscopic technique?.- 8 Sutures configurations.- 9 Surgical indications and Complications.- 10 Post-operative rehabilitation program.- 11 Post-operative imaging.- 12 Biomechanical and Biological Considerations.- 13 Economic Aspects.- 14 Conclusions.

Book Synopsis"Brilliant Like reading the best well kept secrets about the human body freely, clearly and openly!This is a must read for all movement teachers, practitioners and all curious about the human body!" Reader review ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐"I am exuberant about this book. It is stunning in its depth, including an historical perspective of anatomy as well as clearly written exposition about the intricacies of human posture and movement. I especially like the exercises for practice that help to bring the text alive. I couldn''t be more pleased with this articulate, readable anatomy and movement book. I predict it will become a sourcebook for yoga teachers and other health professionals for years to come."Judith Hanson, yoga teacher"From Anatomy to Architecture, from Biomechanical to Biomotional and from Classical to Connected "- speaks to all bodies, in all modalities; in a world seeking unity and connection more than ever.Yoga, Fascia, Anatomy and Movement was written partly as an appeal for Yoga Teachers to appreciate the depth and breadth of Yoga as a science, a movement practice and a philosophy that fundamentally espouses "wholeness" as the basis of living anatomy and form. Yoga calls for unifying who and how we are; and as teachers - how we can help our clients (who are all different) move better.Classical Anatomy (in the West) divides the body down into its component parts and traditionally (unchanged for 400 years) reduces its functionality to those parts; usually described in a 2D iconic forms and founded in lever-based mechanics. In the East, such reductionism was never espoused and Yoga, Fascia, Anatomy and Movement covers two huge bases to bridge the difference and upgrade understanding of Yoga, to 21st Century anatomy:The first is to recognise that the leading edge of Fascia Science changes all those reductionist views (anatomically and biomechanically). It is carefully explained in the first part of the book and shows how the New Science of Body Architecture actually makes perfect sense of yogic philosophy of union and wholeness.The second is to take this paradigm shift and apply it in practice, to the subtle understanding of the fascial architecture and how that helps us move better. Yoga, Fascia, Anatomy and Movement attempts to ask questions, find suitable research and make all this practical and applicable to teachers and practitioners of all types. (Indeed, it teaches "posture profiling" and creating Class Mandalas, to support this). It is a contemporary yoga teacher''s bible.This book is for those who want to integrate scientific knowledge with practical application in yoga and movement disciplines, as well as yoga therapists and teacher, yoga instructors, bodyworkers, manual therapists, movement educators, anatomy and physiology students, somatic practitioners, fascia enthusiasts.Joanne''s newest book Myofascial Magic in Action: A Movement Practitioner''s Guide to How the Body Really Moves (Understanding Fascia) publishes in December 2024.

Book SynopsisIn Functional Exercise Prescription Eyal Lederman presents a revolutionary new approach for exercise prescription that uses the individual''s own movement repertoire. The book demonstrates how daily activities (the life gym) can be amplified to provide the necessary movement challenges to support movement rehabilitation in many musculoskeletal and pain conditions. Hence, all activities can become remedial without the need to prescribe unfamiliar exercise; in other words, ''how to exercise without exercise'' or ''how to rehabilitate without exercise''.People recover from most musculoskeletal and pain conditions through three key processes: repair, adaptation, and alleviation of symptoms. The author explains how to identify the individual''s recovery process and how to select the appropriate daily or sporting activities, and, how they can be modified to support recovery.Functional Exercise Prescription is a dramatic departure from the traditional strength and conditioning models that have been used for rehabilitation. The book explores the limitation of these models and explains how they can be replaced by functional daily activities (''functioncise''). It provides the practitioner with practical tools to construct a tailor-made plan for each individual to help expedite and optimize their recovery. Most rehabilitation can be constructed from a small familiar set of daily or sports activities.All human physical activity is exercise. Life is your gym.

Book SynopsisHave you ever looked at a heavy volume on neuropsychology and wondered what it would actually be like to become a professional clinician, working every day with neurological patients in a busy hospital while simultaneously learning your craft? This book tells the story of that journey. The Notebook of a New Clinical Neuropsychologist vividly details the experience of starting work in clinical neuropsychology, exploring early-career learning and development through an intimate, case-based approach. Topics include the learning of basic clinical skills and knowledge, counter-transference, the clinician's emotional experiences, ethical and moral dilemmas, and the development of clinical reasoning. The book is structured around individual studies from the author's early caseload, with each vignette containing the relevant neuropathology, clinical presentation, history, neuropsychological test finding and other clinical data. Chapters are also organized around key neuTrade ReviewAt the beginning of this book, a young Rudi Coetzer asks a senior colleague for help: "How to resemble a clinical neuropsychologist, just a tiny little bit more as I go along?". This question is also continually asked by my students. This excellent book provides an answer and will help students and young professionals develop. A mixture of sound theoretical knowledge, experience, understanding, and most importantly, deep clinical wisdom, this is a great and highly-needed book for young and more experienced psychologists alike. (Sanna Koskinen, Clinical neuropsychologist, University lecturer, PhD, University of Helsinki)This beautiful book interweaves the vulnerability and modesty of a budding new neuropsychologist with the narratives of patients as experienced from the clinician's side of the desk. What adds great weight to the value of the book is that Rudi Coetzer has remained true to the origins of his first cases and refrained from the temptation of choosing only the extraordinary cases – as a result his book is both remarkable and a precious addition to the literature.

Book SynopsisEncephalitis is a devastating condition whose impact upon people should not be underestimated. It robs people of abilities most of us take for granted, it leaves people without their loved ones, and even in those families where the person affected survives the person they once knew can be dramatically changed. Life After Encephalitis provides a unique insight into the experiences of those affected by encephalitis, sharing the rich, perceptive, and often powerful, narratives of survivors and family members. It shows how listening to patient and family narratives can help us to understand how they make sense of what has happened to them, and also help professionals better understand and engage with them in practice. The book will also be useful for considering narratives associated with brain injuries from other causes, for example traumatic brain injury. Life After Encephalitis  will appeal to a wide range of professionals woTrade Review"Easton’s book makes you think about identity. If our brains hold our memories that largely determine ourpersonality and effectively define us, what does it meanif part of our brain is destroyed? Personality creates relationships—so when someone you love changes, what happens to the relationship? Encephalitis is undoubtedly a thief, and Easton does an excellent job at explaining why." – Jules Morgan, The Lancet Neurology"I always thought I was a one-off; unique. Back then I had no one to share my experience with…If this book had been available then, I would have realised others had gone, and were going through, similar things to me." – Simon Hattenstone, Journalist and features writer, The Guardian"Life After Encephalitis has given a voice to the millions of people worldwide affected by this horrible condition. As the sister of someone who fought her own battle with encephalitis, I believe it was important that my mum contributed to Ava’s book so that others can take some comfort in knowing they are not, and never will be alone." – Rebecca Adlington, OBE"This is a wonderful book. Ava Easton says in the preface to Life After Encephalitis that she hopes that it gives a voice to survivors of encephalitis. It does. It is a book of stories from which we learn what encephalitis is and how it affects the brain, but more importantly how it changes the lives of those who survive it." – Professor Jon Evans, University of Glasgow"I was absolutely delighted to provide the cover image for such an important book. Having met several survivors of encephalitis I realised how deeply this condition impacts on their lives. Ava’s book does a fantastic job in sharing some of their stories whilst also empowering professionals, and I’m sure it’ll go a long way to improving understanding and care of encephalitis survivors and those left bereaved by the condition." – Bill Ward"When my husband suffered a brain injury we were plunged into an unknown landscape with no knowledge at all of how to cope or what had even happened. This immensely readable book provides immediate insight, help and knowledge of Encephalitis and will be an invaluable guide to anyone who has to deal with this frightening condition" – Kika Markham"Dr Ava Easton has done something remarkable with this book: she has given life and support to patients and families living through this silent disease. From the first-person cases to the in-depth research and passionate dedication to her work as the head of the Encephalitis Society, Ava Easton has given us a gift with this tremendously important book." – Susannah Cahalan, author of Brain On Fire: My Month of Madness"The book is a valuable and overdue addition to the growing body of literature on encephalitis; a disease that manifests in a variety of forms, is often misunderstood, devastating and sometimes deadly. The book is unique in that it tells many stories of encephalitis, from different perspectives, eg, the survivor, the parents of those that did not make it, the physician, as well as those that are unable to tell their story. Encephalitis is much more than just "inflammation of the brain" and its consequences are far-reaching and life-altering. The many narratives in the book illustrate this brilliantly. The book will appeal to a wide readership, including academics, healthcare providers and all those that have been affected or have an interest in learning more." - The Anti-NMDA Receptor Encephalitis Foundation"This is an excellent book. I can't put it down. Thank you for pulling together these patient stories which are at once both ordinary and extraordinary. I've no doubt of the importance of this work for medical professionals." - Benedict Michael, NIHR Academic Clinical Lecturer, The Walton Centre NHS Foundation Trust, Liverpool, Centre for Immune and Inflammatory Disease, Harvard Medical School"This is an essential book, not only for those recovering from encephalitis, those relatives or friends or professionals involved in the care of people with encephalitis, neurology wards and clinic areas, but also the general reader interested in knowing more about the impact of sudden acquired brain disease on people through patient narratives." -Michael Zandi, ACNR co-editor, Honorary Consultant Neurologist National Hospital for Neurology and Neurosurgery "Life after encephalitis provides a voice to individuals affected by encephalitis. We all tell stories; it is part of being human as a way of making sense of our experience individually or with others. Our sense of self can be understood as the story of who we are and this identity can be interrupted by encephalitis without invitation or warning. Cognitive problems with memory or language and psychosocial changes following encephalitis can alter an individual’s sense of who he or she is. The narratives within the book can help people affected by encephalitis to understand the new path they find themselves on. The book also adds to the knowledge and understanding of professionals on their clinical journey, and readers’ understanding of themselves with reflections on hope, tenacity and honesty." -Bonnie-Kate Dewar, PhD, Director Neuropsychological Services, LondonDr Ava Easton has done something remarkable with this book: she has given life and support to patients and families living through this silent disease.
