Book excerpt: This book is meant to bridge the gap between small handbooks that do not contain enough material to understand why you are doing certain things and large textbooks that lack the practical information you need for how to do specific procedures, write notes, orders, and dictations. After reading it, you will be prepared to care for an obstetric patient from the moment they arrive in triage until the time they are discharged. You will understand not only how to perform both simple and complicated procedures, but also why they are necessary, and you will have the answers to the most common pimp questions that are asked of students and residents. The most up-to-date literature and evidence-based recommendations have been used to create simple treatment algorithms for the most common issues you will face, and numerous illustrations are included for clarity as well. Because of its focus, this book is also valuable resource for staff physicians who need an updated text on current obstetric care as well as for those who regularly interact with and teach medical students and residents.

Download or read book The Ultimate Practical Business Manual written by Chris Haroun and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2015-12-27 with total page 384 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The author's previous book was reviewed by Forbes as "1 of 6 books that all entrepreneurs need to read right now." The Ultimate Practical Business Manual will teach you everything you need to know about business....from starting a company to taking it public. Most business books are significantly outdated. This book leverages many online resources and makes the general business, accounting and finance process very easy to understand (and enjoyable too)! There are many incredibly engaging and entertaining video links in the book to YouTube and other sources; 'edutainment' works! Although this book is close to 400 pages, I tried to visualize the content of this book as much as possible as this is a more impactful and enjoyable way to learn (think Pinterest versus the tiny words in the Economist)! The contents of this book are all based on my work experience at several firms, including Goldman Sachs, the consulting industry at Accenture, a few companies I have started, the hedge fund industry where I worked at Citadel and most recently, based on my experience at a prominent San Francisco based venture capital firm. I also included many helpful practical business concepts I learned while I did an MBA at Columbia University and a Bachelor of Commerce degree at McGill University. Think of this book as a "greatest hits" business summary from my MBA, undergraduate business degree, work experience in consulting, equities, hedge funds, venture capital and starting my own companies. As the title of this book suggests, this is a practical manual to help you accomplish your business career goals. I have minimized "boring theoretical concepts" in this book in order to keep it as close to reality as possible. I hope you enjoy it! In addition to teaching at 4 universities in the San Francisco Bay Area, you can find other courses that I teach online at www.udemy.com/user/chris-haroun/.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This manual presents the practical and statistical information needed to help investigators decide how large a sample to select from a population targeted for a health study or survey. Designed to perform a "cookbook" function, the book uses explanatory text and abundant tabular calculations to vastly simplify the task of determining the minimum sample size needed to obtain statistically valid results. The objective is to assist those investigators, undertaking health studies at local or district level, who lack detailed knowledge of statistical methodology.

The second part of the book features more than 50 pages of tables that enable the reader to determine the sample size required, under simple random sampling, in a given type of study without recourse to complicated calculations.
