The Handbook of Emergency Medicine is the evolved compilation of department protocols, which were put together in 1995, to facilitate standardised patient care in the emergency department. Over time, there have been several revisions, thereby reflecting the change in concepts of emergency care as well as the escalating demand for additional material by the end-user. Simplicity and brevity are the virtues embraced by this book, directed towards the junior clinician, who often is confronted with life-threatening conditions, which would require rapid action. It is neither all-inclusive nor is it comprehensive; but intended to be a ready reckoner, a simple and practical tool to enhance the management of common emergencies.

Just Half a Cup An Empty Cup An Overflowing Cup

# data[].attributes.subtitle
She was twenty-three, left with two children, and it seemed that her entire world had fallen apart.

# data[].attributes.description
Just Half a Cup, An Empty Cup, An Overflowing Cup speaks about how much of God you want in your life. Are you satisfied with just enough to be comfortable, or are you empty? In these pages, the way to be full and overflowing is made clear. I have found through every storm I faced that the more my cup (heart) was full of the Spirit of God, the easier the way became.

We go through many storms in our lives, and as the pages unfold, I will tell you about some storms I faced and how God brought me through. When you feel your entire world has fallen apart, God is still there. My prayer is that, at the end of this book, you will be thirsty for a drink from the well of living water. I pray your cup gets so full that it will overflow into the lives of those around you. If just one person lets this happen-and then another, and another-wow, my cup will be full and overflowing!

Jesus said, "Not everyone who says to Me a Lord, Lord,' will enter the kingdom of heaven," but the message of much of the modern church is that anyone who repeats the words to the sinner's prayer can be sure of their salvation.

Jesus also declared that He would tell religious people who have prophesied, performed miracles, and even driven out demons that He never knew them. But the modern church assumes that anyone who participates in religious activity must be a child of God.

The gap between what Jesus said and what the church says has created multitudes of modern "Christians" who claim a relationship with a God they have never met.

The God I Finally Met is a personal and passionate call for all people to heed the words of Jesus and to test themselves to ensure they know the God they claim to worship.

Relentless Love weaves together a poetic tapestry designed to challenge, reveal, convict, and restore; to piece together real-life stories that intertwine like a patchwork quilt and wrap us in God's love; to take us by the hand and lead us to the narrow gate; and to examine ourselves and explore our free will and the relentless love of Jesus to prove He is the one, the Christ, Messiah, God's only son.

This collection of poems with reflective devotions and guided prayers take the reader on a spiritual journey of self-discovery to answer the five W's:

Who? His name is Jesus.

What? He paid my debt of sin with His life's blood and three days later rose from the dead.

When? Two thousand years ago, He walked the earth, all God, all man.

Where? On a hill called Mount Calvary.

Why? So a sinner like me could stand forgiven, redeemed and set free.

Whether a seasoned Christian, babe in Christ, prodigal son or daughter, or unbeliever, all will find themselves just beyond the narrow gate at the foot of the cross, where their free will and the truth of the Gospel of Jesus Christ collide.

Du bon usage des instruments en chirurgie orthopedique

# data[].attributes.description
A l'heure ou l'assistance informatique, precedant peut-etre les robots, est en passe d'envahir les blocs operatoires d'orthopedie traumatologie, on pourrait craindre qu'un ouvrage consacre a la description et aux regles d'utilisation d'outils conventionnels (ciseaux, lames, scies, etc.) ne se trouve relegue sur l'etagere reservee aux antiquites. Son titre, " du bon usage des instruments... "; n'a-t-il d'ailleurs pas un charme vieillot ? Mais il n'en sera rien. L'os, materiau noble comme le bois auquel il ressemble tant, et qui est de plus vivant, necessite un travail delicat a l'aide d'instruments nombreux, tant est grande la specificite de chacun. L'une des facettes de l'apprentissage de l'orthopedie est l'apprentissage du geste. L'apprentissage intelligent du geste suppose la connaissance precise de chaque instrument et des regles qui president a son utilisation. Et c'est cela le contenu de cet ouvrage. Jean Castaing etait un operateur au geste d'une rare elegance. Transmettre cette gestuelle a ses eleves etait une preoccupation de chacun des instants qu'il passait au bloc avec eux.

Ce livre, ecrit avec la collaboration de Luc Favard, comme lui passionne d'enseignement, resume l'enseignement qu'il dispensait au quotidien.

Le management a la Mayo Clinic : Et si nous faisons la meme chose dans nos hopitaux ?

# data[].attributes.description
Comment un etablissement de 27 lits, cree en 1889 a la suite dune tornade devastatrice et situe middle of nowhere au sud du Minnesota, est-il devenu le meilleur hopital du monde avec aujourdhui plus de 83.000 collaborateurs ? Comment la Mayo Clinic, en se basant sur les valeurs de ses fondateurs, a-t-elle acquis une telle reputation dans le monde ? Ce sont les questions auxquelles lauteur va ici repondre en sappuyant sur des temoignages de medecins ayant travaille au sein de cet etablissement repute. Mais il sest egalement base sur des centaines darticles et douvrages de reference pour expliquer cette success story, car la Mayo Clinic cest aussi la creation, il y a plus de 150 ans, du premier dossier patient, mais aussi des laureats du Prix Nobel tout comme des recherches sur limplementation de lIA en medecine. Les esprits chagrins souligneront que tout cela se passe aux USA. Et alors ? Que sait-on reellement ici des soins de sante outre-Atlantique ? Lauteur consacrera egalement un chapitre a ce sujet.
Si la Mayo Clinic a atteint un tel niveau dexcellence cest aussi et surtout grace a la qualite du management qui y a ete mis en place au cours des decennies. Un management a ce point performant quil a meme inspire des patrons de grandes entreprises.

Aujourdhui, nos hopitaux en Europe se portent souvent tres mal, avec a la fois des penuries de personnel et des problemes budgetaires recurrents. Lauteur pose alors la question suivante : quest-ce qui nous empeche de mettre en oeuvre, dans nos hopitaux, les pratiques manageriales qui ont fait le succes de cet etablissement de pointe depuis de nombreuses annees ? Pour repondre a cette question, lauteur a interroge differents experts mais a aussi analyse en profondeur les bonnes pratiques de la Mayo Clinic : son histoire, ses valeurs mais aussi la notion de patient first et de team spirit qui font partie de son ADN. Lauteur donne ici des pistes concretes qui pourraient, des demain, avec un peu de bonne volonte, etre mises en place dans nos hopitaux dans linteret a la fois des patients et des equipes.

The Cornfield and West Woods and the Opening Rounds of the Civil Wars Bloodiest Battle, September 17, 1862

# data[].attributes.description
Crisis at Antietam: The Cornfield and West Woods, September 17, 1862, provides a meticulous tactical analysis of the opening brutal hours of the Civil Wars bloodiest single day. Set within the broader Maryland Campaign, this groundbreaking work plunges readers into the chaos of September 17, 1862. The Confederate Army of Northern Virginia under Robert E. Lee was in grave peril. With nearly half his forces exhausted and straggling, Lee confronted George McClellans Army of the Potomaca Union force poised for a decisive victory that famously slipped from its grasp.Edens in-depth study of the fighting on the Confederate left uncovers critical missed opportunities, profound command failures, and the unpredictable hand of sheer chance. The fighting that raged through the Miller Cornfield and West Woods quickly spiraled beyond command control. Officers often failed to restore order amid the maelstrom; regiments and brigades acted independently, pushing forward without orders or full awareness of the battles unfolding horror. Union forces drove the Confederate front to the precipice of collapse on three occasions, only for the Rebels to miraculously rally each time, stabilizing their fragile lines against overwhelming odds.Eden draws on extensive original sources, including memoirs, official reports, and soldier letters, together with his own invaluable combat experience as a retired Army officer and former West Point military history instructor. His insights are fresh and authoritative. Crisis at Antietam challenges even seasoned readers to fundamentally reconsider the traditional narrative of that pivotal bloody September day by exposing the raw, brutal reality of command and combat at Antietam.

Highlights Alasdair Whittles influential research on Neolithic society, farming, monuments, settlements, and radiocarbon chronology.Alasdair Whittle is one of the most influential British prehistorians of the late 20th to early 21st century. This volume in our new Reflections series re-presents some of his most important papers published in Oxbow titles and celebrates his contribution to our understanding of Neolithic lifeways and the development of Neolithic society in Britain and Europe. The collection illustrates his pioneering work in the interpretation of both monumental and settlement sites, and the spread and nature of early farming in central and western Europe, including investigation of LBK longhouse life. Alasdair has also been at the forefront of the application of Bayesian statistics in radiocarbon dating, helping to revolutionise chronologies at a variety of geographical and temporal scales. This volume seeks to reflect some of the best of his innovative thinking and influence as seen through his publications with Oxbow.

The House of the Tub in Hellenistic Halos

# data[].attributes.description
The House of the Tub in Hellenistic Halos was built around 302 BCE and suddenly abandoned after an earthquake about three decades later, leaving much of the household inventory in situ. The detailed recording and analysis of artefact distributionsincluding ceramics, metal and stone artefacts, faunal and botanical remainsmade it possible to identify the range of activities carried out in each room and to assess patterns in the use of space.The results indicate a high degree of multifunctionality: most rooms and the courtyard contained combinations of storage vessels, cooking equipment, tableware, and food remains, demonstrating that spaces were not assigned single, fixed functions. No evidence for genderspecific areas was identified; artefacts typically associated with women, such as loom weights or cosmetic vessels, were dispersed throughout the house.The assemblage reflects a household of comparatively high socio-economic standing, with substantial storage capacity and material wealth exceeding that of other excavated houses at New Halos. The presence of a bronze horse bit, weaponry, and numerous Macedonian royal coins are clear indications that the inhabitants were connected to military service, specifically to the Macedonian cavalry. The authors therefore identify this as a horsemans household.

The Civil War on the Seas, Coastline, Rivers, and Oceans

# data[].attributes.description
History offers no example where so much was accomplished in so short a time, or where so many events were crowded into the space of four years, in which the Navy was employed subduing a coast over four thousand miles in length, and recapturing a river-coast of more than five thousand miles, wrote Rear Admiral David Dixon Porter in his 1886 The Naval History of the Civil War.Porters words demonstrate the true scale of the wars naval activity. Thousands of ships took part, fighting battles alongside the armies and patrolling the globe. The actions of more than 100,000 sailors on both sides impacted military, naval, economic, and diplomatic aspects, all while providing the tools to realize the Anaconda Plan of isolating and splitting the Confederacy.Unlike the army dividing its efforts into the Eastern, Western, and Trans-Mississippi theaters, the Civil Wars naval forces fought in four distinct theaters of conflict. The offshore blockade was an economic and logistical campaign waged to determine whether Southern armies would remain properly supplied. Sailors enacting that blockade worked in tandem with armies to assault cities and coastal areas to deny the Confederacy its ports and coastal infrastructure, while Confederate sailors fought to both break the blockade and keep control of its ports. Meanwhile, fleets on both sides battled for control over the Mississippi River Valley in an effort to cleave off the Trans-Mississippi Theater from the rest of the Confederacy. Finally, an economic and diplomatic war was waged across the oceans, where Southern privateers and commerce raiders prowled for Federal merchant ships.In This Great Contest Afloat: The Civil War on the Seas, Coastline, Rivers, and Oceans, award-winning historian and professor Neil P. Chatelain unpacks each of these naval theaters. Using prolific firsthand accounts merged with keen macro analysis, Chatelain invites readers to board blockade-runners, tread the beaches during coastal assaults, ride on riverine ironclads, and sail on targeted merchant vessels, all the while demonstrating the extent and impact of Civil War naval activity.

A Force For Good is the biography of the remarkable life of Gisela Warburg Wyzanski.Unlike many wealthy German Jews, Gisela chose to remain in Germany to combat the horrors wrought by the Nazis. She worked tirelessly to rescue European children, place them in foster homes, and help them emigrate to Palestine. A Force For Good: Gisela Warburg Wyzanski evolved from the discovery of a treasure trove of letters and documents carefully preserved by Gisela herself and recently discovered by her daughter, Anita Wyzanski Robboy, the author of this biography. Set in Germany, Palestine, England, and the United States, Giselas life story spans the historically significant pre-WWII to post-WWII period as seen through the eyes of a courageous young Jewish woman who, without concern for her own safety, leveraged her upbringing of wealth and privilege to help rescue children from the Nazis. Along the way, she developed friendships with some of the most powerful and influential Jewish leaders of that era, who became her mentors. Sadly, many of the horrors Gisela witnessed are echoed in todays current events, but A Force For Good will provide a unique perspective on how one determined and courageous person can make a difference in the world.

EdD Students Learning to Write as Scholarly Practitioners

# data[].attributes.description
Writing as Artistry: EdD Students Learning to Write as Scholarly Practitioners is a timely guidebook that supports EdD students scholarly writing development while honoring and amplifying their rich practitioner knowledge and wisdom. EdD students are educational leaders and working professionals transitioning from expert-practitioners to scholarly practitioners who aim to positively transform the lives of students and communities. This resource addresses the significant need for mastering scholarly writing skills required for EdD students successful degree completion and real-life impact.

The books conceptual approach frames scholarly writing as artistry. This perspective recognizes the work of practitioners as a deeply human and experiential process of solving problems of practice by drawing on prior knowledge and exploring new methods to improve practice. This view champions the idea that practitioners professional knowledge and rich prior experience are essential assets and that their insider knowledge is a necessary and key condition for rigorous practitioner inquiry. The authors adopt a critical stance that rejects the dominant notion of technical rationality, which historically views researchers as scholars and practitioners as mere doers, arguing instead that building successful experiences for EdD students requires and respects practitioners professional knowledge.

The guidebook offers a scaffolded, practical approach to scholarly writing, aiming to guide the reader toward a practice-focused lens, provides practical tools for fostering scholarly writing, and builds students confidence as writers. It is centrally focused on developing practice-centered dissertations and culminating projects that align with professional-practice degrees.

To support students throughout the process, the book provides a robust repertoire of writing approaches and strategies. It offers guidance on prewriting techniques for capturing initial ideas and helps students in effectively connecting their ideas with others. Critical to this artistic approach is the development of a unique writers voice and positionality, often through the use of reflexivity. The book includes comprehensive practical tools for navigating the often-challenging mechanics of scholarly work, detailing writing feedback and revision strategies, and including a range of templates and clear examples of student work. Furthermore, the guide provides essential advice for leveraging support structures, such as engaging with multiple mentors and critical friends. The guide also prepares students for diverse project types, including individual, collaborative, and alternative dissertation projects.

Ultimately, mastering these skills is a critical way to support students in their work beyond graduation. The ability to write clear, scholarly reports is essential, as the skills learned must transfer from the Dissertation-in-Practice experience to the student's world of practice, thus ensuring real-world impact by enhancing leaders capacity to implement evidence-based solutions to complex problems.

Health and social care are being transformed by digital technologies. Yet, for many professionals, the rapid pace of change can feel overwhelming, confusing, or even exclusionary. Digital Health and Social Care: Byte-sized Wisdom provides a clear and engaging guide to help clinicians, leaders, and practitioners answer the key questions: what digital innovations are available today; how should we navigate their introduction into practice; and why do they matter for the future of health and social care?

Structured around the everyday realities of care work, this book explores a wide range of topics, from population health management and pathway redesign to medicines management, electronic patient records, and professional decision support. It highlights the blurred boundaries between clinical digital practice and IT expertise, offering frameworks to help professionals recognise where their responsibilities lie and where specialist support is required.

As the chapters progress, readers are guided beyond the technologies themselves-towards leadership, governance, and ethical considerations that underpin successful digital transformation. Adopting digital systems is not simply about technical proficiency, but about cultivating new ways of leading change, collaborating across professional boundaries, and safeguarding patient trust in how we use and protect their data.

Looking ahead, the book also considers emerging innovations-artificial intelligence, robotics, nanotechnologies, and immersive environments-that are set to redefine care in ways that once belonged to science fiction. By situating these developments in a practical, professional context, Tack offers a balanced view: one that is both aspirational and grounded in the daily work of clinicians and care staff.
