Book excerpt: October 1988 IN A MOMENT OF DESPERATION Od pressed the button set deep in the wood of the scarebox, and unknowingly pushed Ed's soul out of his body. For some reason Ed's Body can still walk and talk, but it isn't behaving like Ed, and it refuses to leave the graveyard. Thrown into the supernatural currents running under her small town, Od soon learns that her only ally may be Loney Scrobe-a strange classmate of hers who's surrounded by dark and disturbing rumors. Od's not sure if she can trust Loney, but her brother's life hangs in the balance...and she only has one night to put him back together again. At times creepy, funny, and frightening, and told deftly from a child's perspective, Od and Ed is a haunting and heartfelt suburban dark fantasy about a sister and brother that brings the nineteen-eighties to life in ways that feel both new and familiar.

Download or read book Organisation Development in Healthcare written by John Edmonstone and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2021-11-28 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Organisational development (OD) as a practice involves an ongoing, systematic process of implementing effective organisational change. OD is both a field of applied science focused on understanding and managing organisational change and a field of scientific study and inquiry. It is interdisciplinary in nature and draws on sociology, psychology, particularly industrial and organisational psychology, and theories of motivation, learning, and personality. Organisation Development in Healthcare: A Critical Appraisal for Practitioners provides both an overview of the evolution of OD in healthcare as a field of practice and as a challenge to its future development. It examines the underlying assumptions behind OD and tracks its historical growth in healthcare, with special attention devoted to the UK’s National Health Service. The unusual nature of healthcare organisations delivering human services through the work of professionals who are subject to emotional labor and are addressing society’s wicked problems provides a unique context. A range of challenges for healthcare OD are identified, including questions of conformists or deviant innovation; organisations as machines or systems; hierarchy versus democracy; the importance of power and emotion and possible future ways forward for healthcare OD are suggested. Examples and short case studies from both the UK and the US to illustrate the benefits of OD are included.
