The relationship between oncologists and their cancer patients is rapidly evolving. Oncologists and other cancer professionals master new anticancer and supportive treatment options, while working under increasing economic pressure and time constraints, and are often unprepared to deal with all the challenges of their new position in a therapeutic relationship with cancer patients and families. Good communication is as essential as are modern laboratory tests and sophisticated diagnostics to achieve the best clinical results. This book updates the evolution of truth-telling and communication patterns worldwide and offers insights into the recent trends and emerging challenges in communication with cancer patients and families. New Challenges in Communication with Cancer Patients is an invaluable resource to medical professionals, educators and patients in establishing a strong and effective partnership built on trust and mutual understanding.

Many young, inexperienced doctors, have difficultly pinpointing a diagnosis: Is it a condition to which certain diseases could belong, or a disease definable in line with certain criteria?  How can I apply my basic knowledge of diseases to a real patient? How can I find the correct diagnosis for a disease that I am seeing for the very first time?   The traditional diagnostic pathways conveyed by current methods of teaching, from visual identification of the disease, knowledge of diseases, understanding of symptoms or patterns to diagnosis, leave certain diagnostic questions unanswered, especially on first experience of such a clinical pattern.  Syndrome-based Approach to Diagnosis: A Practical Guide offers lecturers an alternative training concept in their teaching, which provides students with a model for self-study as well as the educational tools for learning how to think in clinical terms. It also includes a basic structured program for internal medicine at a glance in the form of decision trees that cover all major internal medicine fields.  This training concept is suitable as: ·  A self-assessment test ·  A study program (self study and case-based study) ·  A basic program covering all the major teaching objectives in a clinical discipline ·  A guideline and educational framework for differential diagnosis ·  A collection of individual therapeutic options (with presentation of clinical cases) This book is a comprehensive educational tool ideal for medical professionals and those working within medical education.

Stiamo vivendo una crisi sistemica, epocale, che non riguarda solo l’economia e la finanza, ma anche l’ecosistema, il nostro mondo di valori e la cultura su cui si è basata finora la nostra vita su questo pianeta. Di fronte a una crisi di queste proporzioni, occorre mettere in discussione il paradigma in base al quale si è organizzata la nostra società. Il modello di sviluppo, ormai accettato a livello globale, non si sta rivelando sostenibile e necessita di essere rapidamente rivisto. La crescita economica illimitata e il deterioramento conseguente dell’ambiente richiedono politiche eco-compatibili, che non mettano a repentaglio la nostra sopravvivenza. Questo libro è scritto da diversi autori molto conosciuti nei loro rispettivi campi: filosofia, economia, biologia, medicina, mondo dei media e della comunicazione. Il filo conduttore del volume è l’informazione che ha originato l’Universo e ha permesso la nascita della vita sulla Terra, un’unità organica, un flusso di dati che è a rischio ogni volta che gli uomini pensano esclusivamente a soddisfare i propri interessi.

Het coachen van docenten is een vak apart met in de praktijk wisselend succes. Coachen op Contact is een praktische steun voor coaches die docenten begeleiden in de eerste vijf maanden van hun loopbaan. Dit boek geeft zowel de coach als de docent houvast door onderscheid te maken tussen zes rollen: die van gastheer, presentator, didacticus, pedagoog, afsluiter en coach. Per rol wordt beeldend beschreven wat effectief gedrag is en wat niet. De gedragsindicatoren ondersteunen de diagnose. De docent beseft beter wat hij goed doet en wat nog niet, de coach leert per rol coachen op gedragsverandering, compdetentieontwikkeling en overtuigingen. (Bron: covertekst)
