Writing With, Through, and Beyond the Text: An Ecology of

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Luce-Kapler, Rebecca / Luce-Kapler, PUBLISHER: Routledge, "Writing With, Through, and Beyond the Text: An Ecology of Language" elaborates an understanding of writing, its influences on our interpretations of experience and identity, and its potential for enabling individuals to learn about and connect to the world beyond themselves.

This is an illuminating text for a wide audience of faculty, professionals, and graduate students in English, writing, education, and women's studies/feminist theory.

Worlds of Illness: Biographical & Cultural Perspectives on

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Radley, Alan / Radley Alan, PUBLISHER: Routledge, In recent years the study of illness as experienced by patients has emerged as an approach to understanding sickness.

Worlds of Illness examines people's experience of illness and their understanding of what it means to be healthy. The contributors are the first to offer this biographic and cultural approach in one volume, redefining the perspective further and drawing attention to its potential for questioning theoretical assumptions about health and illness.

Prognosis of Neurological Disorders

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Evans, Randolph W. / Baskin, David S. / Yatsu, Frank M., PUBLISHER: Oxford University Press, USA, This is the first comprehensive book devoted to the prognosis of neurological disorders. It addresses the questions: what is the natural history and how does medical and/or surgical treatment alter the outcome? Introductory chapters view prognosis from the perspective of a medical ethicist using coma as an example; a psychologist exploring how a patient's perception of prognosis might alter outcome; and a neuroepidemiology group examining the methodology of prognostic studies. In discussing the various types of neurological disease, the authors consistently provide an introduction to the topic, a review of the relevant literature, and a critical assessment of the prognostic factors. This volume is a practical guide for the clinician that can be used on a daily basis as a reference source when discussing prognosis with patients and their families and with other members of the health care team. It will be of interest to neurologists, neurosurgeons, physiatrists, neuropsychologists, internists, and attorneys. In years to come, outcome analysis will be of increasing importance as beleaguered health care payers attempt to provide the most cost-effective treatment possible.
