Download or read book Golden Rules of Surgery written by Augustus Bernays and published by . This book was released on 2013-12-12 with total page 232 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A review from the Medical Review, Volume 53: THE first of the "Medical Guides and Monographs Series" in prepared by the C. V. Mosby Medical Book Co., of St. Louis, is dedicated by the author to his friend, Charles H. Mayo, M. D., of Rochester, Minn., and might perhaps with equal propriety have been called Bernays' Aphorisms on Surgery, it has nothing of the text book character, but consists mainly of a series of practical points drawn from the author's own wide experience in surgery, grouped alphabetically under various headings, such as Anaesthetics, Abscess, Bones and Joints Genitourinary, Head, and so forth. Besides these Golden Rules of Surgery, the work contains chapters on the Education of a Surgeon; on Scientific Contributions to the Literature of Medicine and Surgery; Science and Surgery; The Ways and Means of building up a Practice; About Fees; Off with the Cloak of Superstition! Away with Inflammation and the Confusion it has Caused! and finally a chapter of Reminiscences. The chapter entitled Off with the Cloak of Superstition is prefaced with an appropriate quotation from Huxley. It contains much sound philosophy. There is still undoubtedly an undue amount of mysticism attaching to the practice of the healing art. It is a remnant of the days when mysticism was openly held to be a legitimate adjunct of the physician. To this day, we believe, the Society of Apothecaries in London licenses its diplomats to practise "the art and mystery of an apothecary." Elsewhere the author would abolish the term "inflammation" which, he asserts, has only caused confusion. "There is," he says, "no real or genuine inflammation without infection." "It is clear." he continues, "to all surgeons that between the painless and afebrile regeneration of injured tissues, and the restless, painful and febrile fight for existence and restoration to health, there must be very many intermediate stages. In fact there must be all degrees of septic infection up to the ones that end in death. Throwing all these different processes together seems to be the cause of the existing confusion. A wound, incised or punctured, will heal by tissue regeneration and without pain unless infection intervenes. Infection causes tissue unrest; regeneration is nearly always interrupted and there is pain, etc." The substance of Dr. Bernays' views is "I propose that we separate regeneration and leucocytosis without fever from infection, toxaemia and suppuration. (Sepsis). The pathologists have mixed up these clear processes into the notion of inflammation." Dr. Bernays emphasizes very strongly the necessity for a man having confidence in himself if he is to become a good surgeon. "The sign of a great surgeon is his willingness not only to show his results but to teach and demonstrate his methods to students and colleagues from any and all quarters of the globe." He has a hit, also, at the pretentious process, so irritating to the medical editor, of making a show of learning by the display of a long bibliography, the greater part of which has never been consulted by the author. "Never quote a book or an article by any author," he says, "to which you do not actually refer in your own contribution." He is trenchant in his condemnation of self delusion. "Do not for instance, explain away deaths after hysterectomy, or after pyosalpinx, or after appendicitis operations, by pneumonia, nephritis or other pathological processes. The pneumonia or nephritis would probably not kill the patient if there were no septic infection. Remember that 'qui s' excuse, s' accuse'-and that if a patient enters your hospital alive and is carried out dead a few days after an operation he probably died in consequence of the operation. Let it go at that, excuses will only make things worse. You did your duty, you tried to save life; ultra posse nemo obligatur." He also comes out flatfooted against the practice of division of fees and the paying of commissions.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A compassionate, shame-free guide for your darkest days “A one-of-a-kind book . . . to read for yourself or give to a struggling friend or loved one without the fear that depression and suicidal thoughts will be minimized, medicalized or over-spiritualized.”—Kay Warren, cofounder of Saddleback Church What happens when loving Jesus doesn’t cure you of depression, anxiety, or suicidal thoughts? You might be crushed by shame over your mental illness, only to be told by well-meaning Christians to “choose joy” and “pray more.” So you beg God to take away the pain, but nothing eases the ache inside. As darkness lingers and color drains from your world, you’re left wondering if God has abandoned you. You just want a way out. But there’s hope. In I Love Jesus, But I Want to Die, Sarah J. Robinson offers a healthy, practical, and shame-free guide for Christians struggling with mental illness. With unflinching honesty, Sarah shares her story of battling depression and fighting to stay alive despite toxic theology that made her afraid to seek help outside the church. Pairing her own story with scriptural insights, mental health research, and simple practices, Sarah helps you reconnect with the God who is present in our deepest anguish and discover that you are worth everything it takes to get better. Beautifully written and full of hard-won wisdom, I Love Jesus, But I Want to Die offers a path toward a rich, hope-filled life in Christ, even when healing doesn’t look like what you expect.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A page-turning novel that is also an exploration of the great philosophical concepts of Western thought, Jostein Gaarder's Sophie's World has fired the imagination of readers all over the world, with more than twenty million copies in print. One day fourteen-year-old Sophie Amundsen comes home from school to find in her mailbox two notes, with one question on each: "Who are you?" and "Where does the world come from?" From that irresistible beginning, Sophie becomes obsessed with questions that take her far beyond what she knows of her Norwegian village. Through those letters, she enrolls in a kind of correspondence course, covering Socrates to Sartre, with a mysterious philosopher, while receiving letters addressed to another girl. Who is Hilde? And why does her mail keep turning up? To unravel this riddle, Sophie must use the philosophy she is learning—but the truth turns out to be far more complicated than she could have imagined.

Download or read book Doctors written by Sherwin B. Nuland and published by Vintage. This book was released on 2011-10-19 with total page 547 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the author of How We Die, the extraordinary story of the development of modern medicine, told through the lives of the physician-scientists who paved the way. How does medical science advance? Popular historians would have us believe that a few heroic individuals, possessing superhuman talents, lead an unselfish quest to better the human condition. But as renowned Yale surgeon and medical historian Sherwin B. Nuland shows in this brilliant collection of linked life portraits, the theory bears little resemblance to the truth. Through the centuries, the men and women who have shaped the world of medicine have been not only very human, but also very much the products of their own times and places. Presenting compelling studies of great medical innovators and pioneers, Doctors gives us a fascinating history of modern medicine. Ranging from the legendary Father of Medicine, Hippocrates, to Andreas Vesalius, whose Renaissance masterwork on anatomy offered invaluable new insight into the human body, to Helen Taussig, founder of pediatric cardiology and co-inventor of the original "blue baby" operation, here is a volume filled with the spirit of ideas and the thrill of discovery.
