Abstract

Professionals deal with complex problems which require working with the expertise of others, but being able to collaborate resourcefully with others is an additional form of expertise. This book draws on a series of research studies to explain what is involved in the new concept of working relationally across practices. It demonstrates how spending time building common knowledge between different professions aids collaboration. The core concept is relational agency, which can arise between practitioners who work together on a complex task: whether reconfiguring the trajectory of a vulnerable child or developing a piece of computer software. Common knowledge, which captures the motives and values of each profession, is essential for the exercise of relational agency and contributing to and working with the common knowledge of what matters for each profession is a new form of relational expertise. The book is based on a wide body of field research including the author's own. It tackles how to research expert practices using Vygotskian perspectives, and demonstrates how Cultural Historical and Activity Theory approaches contribute to how we understand learning, practices and organisations.

Abstract

Om de vragen die kinderen in hun gedrag demonstreren te kunnen ‘lezen’, om daarop aangepast een antwoord te zijn en creatief opvoedend te handelen, hebben (aanstaande) professionele opvoeders inzicht nodig in de dynamiek van opvoedprocessen. In Opvoeden als beroep wordt aan de hand van praktijkvoorvallen, casussen en anekdotes uiteengezet wat opvoeden als proces inhoudt. Ook wordt duidelijk welke problemen van alledaagse en van ernstige aard zich in een proces kunnen voordoen en hoe een opvoeder zich ten aanzien daarvan moet presenteren en kan handelen. In afzonderlijke hoofdstukken bespreekt de auteur de meest voorkomende typen van ernstige opvoedingsproblemen en de antwoorden om tot oplossingen te komen. Het gaat om kennis die in het speciaal onderwijs en voor de zorgverbreding op de basisschool onontbeerlijk is.

Abstract

The field of geriatrics foundations is rooted in the classic papers of early descriptions of aging and age-related diseases. In Classic Papers in Geriatric Medicine with Current Commentaries, the authors chose the "classic" papers, providing a combination of expert opinion and objective assessment. The 15 areas in this volume represent the beginnings of practice and thoughts about the best ways to care for older patients. Each paper is introduced by a commentary describing the singular contributions of the chosen paper, with a short list of other important early papers in that area, and, in many cases, reflect on progress in that particular field. The commentaries are personal statements by the authors about the influence of the papers chosen; not meant to be exhaustive reviews of the clinical area in question. Classic Papers in Geriatric Medicine with Current Commentaries exemplifies the importance of a paper and its ability to retain its impact over time. While many of the classic papers in this collection have stood the test of time, others have gained classic status by virtue of their profound influence in relatively quick measure or because of timeliness in filling a void in knowledge.

Abstract

Y2K may have been overrated in terms of its immediate disruptive impact on medical and surgical practice, but it also may have coincidentally marked an era of unprece­ dented change, especially in the domain of surgical spe­ cialty education. Whether one chooses to identify this with training in the beginning of the third year ofmedical school or the completion of the 7th or 8th year of super­ specialty training, many of the same issues and concerns apply. The transition from a scientifically oriented stu­ dent to a real doctor is fraught with hazard and consumes hundreds of hours. The transition into becoming a real doctor is fueled, in many respects, by what most patients expect their doctors to be. This marvelous, concise book is aimed precisely at helping you smoothly bridge the gap between student and practitioner. We have witnessed a decline in surgical career choices, but now a reversal of that decline is occurring with a renewed growth of interest in careers in all surgical specialties. Studies on workforce, or old-fashioned man­ power as it were, continue to show that there is a growing demand for surgical specialty services in America. Depending on where you live, it may be highly specialty oriented or nearer to "old-fashioned" general surgery.

Abstract

Colorectal surgery is a rapidly-evolving surgical field. Innovative procedures, including advanced endoscopy and minimally invasive surgery, are allowing surgeons to offer patients ever-improving treatment options and better surgical outcomes than ever before. Since the last edition of the full volume of Chassin’s Operative Strategies in General Surgery, laparoscopic colon surgery has become the new standard of care in many surgical centers. Thus, for Chassin’s Operative Strategies in Colon and Rectal Surgery, we have added four new, previously unpublished chapters to this new volume: laparoscopic right hemicolectomy and laparoscopic left hemicolectomy; laparoscopic stoma construction and closure; laparoscopic abdominoperineal resection; and total proctocolectomy with end ileostomy. These new chapters provide the reader with the latest techniques in colorectal surgery. In addition to the clear, comprehensive text, these new chapters are enhanced by 52 lavish new illustrations. While the text provides the reader a with clear, step-by-step instructions, the illustrations provide the visual orientation so important to every surgeon's pre-operative preparations. .

Abstract

This second edition of a much praised and widely used reference manual on anatomic pathology has been extensively revised and expanded to cover the entire field of anatomic pathology, including molecular pathology, human genetics, electron microscopy, microbiology for surgical pathologists, transplant pathology, and cytopathology. A distinguished panel of 70+ recognized experts from around the world have incorporated recent advances in molecular pathology, cytology, and immunohistochemistry, adopted the new series of World Health Organization classification books, and used the 2002 TNM staging system and classifications throughout the book. Several new chapters on transplant pathology, the spleen, non-neoplastic skin diseases, the head and neck, the eye and ocular adnexa, the vulva and vagina, and the penis and scrotum significantly expand the book's coverage. The 2000+ new black-and-white images added to the text are also available in full color on a companion CD-ROM packaged with each book. The comprehensive, evidence-based practice information is presented in an outline format that is clear and easy to follow. A full text version of the book, including the color images, is available on CD-ROM and sold separately (ISBN 1-59259-926-5). Up-to-date and richly detailed, Essentials of Anatomic Pathology, Second Edition offers both the pathologist-in-training and the practicing pathologist a concise summary of all the critical information needed to recognize, understand, and interpret anatomic pathology.
