Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Le Guide de l'examen clinique de Barbara Bates reste une référence d'apprentissage pour les étudiants en médecine qui doivent acquérir un savoir-faire médical : dialoguer avec un patient, l'écouter, l'examiner, savoir pratiquer et interpréter l'examen clinique pour comprendre et évaluer ses problèmes. La 6e édition française (10e édition américaine) comporte de nouvelles caractéristiques et spécificités fondées sur trois volontés : répondre aux demandes des enseignants et des étudiants, faciliter la lecture et optimiser l'efficacité pédagogique, et offrir de nouvelles et d'abondantes données étayant les techniques de l'interrogatoire, de l'examen et de la promotion de la santé. Dans la lignée de la 5e édition, la 6e édition comprend trois parties. La première partie, Les bases de l'évaluation de l'état de santé, initie les étudiants à l'interrogatoire du patient et à l'examen clinique. Un exemple de compte rendu d'observation complet et une note d'évolution illustrent les propos théoriques. Des recommandations aident à rédiger un compte rendu d'observation succinct et bien structuré. Un état des connaissances précise la nature et les indications des principales techniques d'examen, du matériel le plus fréquemment utilisé, et des précautions standards et universelles à respecter. Cette première partie s'enrichit d'une présentation du processus du raisonnement clinique et des méthodes d'évaluation des données cliniques et explique les techniques d'un interrogatoire adroit mettant l'accent sur l'importance de l'empathie, de l'éthique et le respect de l'environnement culturel. La deuxième partie, Examens régionaux, traite de l'examen physique du patient, qu'il soit général ou par appareil, et des techniques de mesure des constantes vitales. La prise en compte et l'évaluation des douleurs aiguë et chronique devient une entité à part entière. Les chapitres détaillent les techniques d'examen des différents organes avec, pour chaque appareil, un rappel anatomique et physiologique et des exemples de transcription de compte rendu d'observation. Des questions clés sont mises en relief pour établir clairement les antécédents et l'histoire de la maladie du patient. Chaque chapitre précise par ailleurs, les messages de promotion de la santé les plus récents et les conseils à donner au patient. En fin de chapitre, des tableaux aident les étudiants à reconnaître et comparer des anomalies proposées. Dans la troisième partie : Populations particulières, les lecteurs trouveront les chapitres concernant les problématiques particulières liées à certaines étapes de la vie : l'enfance, la grossesse et la vieillesse. Cette nouvelle édition du Guide de l'examen clinique présente des ajouts substantiels, des révisions importantes et s'enrichit de nouvelles photographies et illustrations afin d'aider les étudiants à maîtriser les qualités que nécessite l'évaluation du patient et le soin qui doit lui être apporté.

Download or read book Madness and Social Representations written by Denise Jodelet and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 1991-01-01 with total page 324 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A striking account of a colony for the mentally ill that forces a reconsideration of madness in society. What happens when the mentally ill are not isolated from society but are instead welcomed into it and invited to take a place in the fabric of the community? Are fear and rejection replaced by the understanding and sympathy often engendered by familiarity? Or are the barriers between the sane and the mad only strengthened? We have experienced a taste of this scenario in the U.S. in the last decade with the new emphasis on de-institutionalization, but Denise Jodelet takes us to an extraordinary community in France where the mentally ill have assumed a visible and prominent role for more than seventy years. The small French town of Ainay-le-Ch�teau and its environs are the site of a "family colony" for men, established in 1900. Here the patients ("lodgers") live with ordinary families ("foster parents"), hold jobs, and are free to move about the countryside. Jodelet's chronicle of daily life in the colony is made rich and vivid by extensive ethnographic material as she unravels a complex set of relationships, ultimately finding that while some of the barriers between the "other" and the larger society have been overcome, new ones have arisen in their place. This unique social experiment provides invaluable social and cultural insights, illuminating many fundamental issues in psychology, psychiatry, and sociology.

Download or read book How Sex Changed written by Joanne Meyerowitz and published by Harvard University Press. This book was released on 2009-07-01 with total page 394 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How Sex Changed is a fascinating social, cultural, and medical history of transsexuality in the United States. Joanne Meyerowitz tells a powerful human story about people who had a deep and unshakable desire to transform their bodily sex. In the last century when many challenged the social categories and hierarchies of race, class, and gender, transsexuals questioned biological sex itself, the category that seemed most fundamental and fixed of all. From early twentieth-century sex experiments in Europe, to the saga of Christine Jorgensen, whose sex-change surgery made headlines in 1952, to today’s growing transgender movement, Meyerowitz gives us the first serious history of transsexuality. She focuses on the stories of transsexual men and women themselves, as well as a large supporting cast of doctors, scientists, journalists, lawyers, judges, feminists, and gay liberationists, as they debated the big questions of medical ethics, nature versus nurture, self and society, and the scope of human rights. In this story of transsexuality, Meyerowitz shows how new definitions of sex circulated in popular culture, science, medicine, and the law, and she elucidates the tidal shifts in our social, moral, and medical beliefs over the twentieth century, away from sex as an evident biological certainty and toward an understanding of sex as something malleable and complex. How Sex Changed is an intimate history that illuminates the very changes that shape our understanding of sex, gender, and sexuality today.

Book excerpt: "Dave King and Richard Ekins are the leading world sociologists in this field. The book brings together a brilliant synthesis of history, case studies, ideas and positions as they have emerged over the past thirty years, and brings together a rich but always grounded account of this field, providing a state of the art of critical concepts and ideas to take this field further during the twenty first century." - Ken Plummer, University of Essex "An outstanding survey of the evolution of trans phenomena, splendidly written, highly informative, scholarly at its best, yet easy to read even for those neither trans nor sociologist. Ekins and King, experts in the field, unroll the panoramas of sex, gender, and transgendering that have evloved during the last decades. For everyone wanting to understand the interaction of women and men and of those who cannot or will not identify with either of these two cataegories, reading this book is a must, and a real pleasure." - Friedmann Pfaefflin, University of ULM This groundbreaking study sets out a framework for exploring transgender diversity for the new millennium. It sets forth an original and comprehensive research and provides a wealth of vivid illustrative material. Based on two decades of fieldwork, life history work, qualitative analysis, archival work and contact with several thousand cross-dressers and sex-changers around the world, the authors distinguish a number of contemporary transgendering ′stories′ to illustrate: The binary male/female divide The interrelations betwen sex, sexuality and gender The interrelations between the main sub-processes of transgendering. Wonderfully insightful, The Transgender Phenomenon develops an original and innovative conceptual framkework for understanding the full range of the transgender experience.

Download or read book Intimate Citizenship written by Ken Plummer and published by University of Washington Press. This book was released on 2011-10-01 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Solo parenting, in vitro fertilization, surrogate mothers, gay and lesbian families, cloning and the prospect of �designer babies,� Viagra and the morning-after pill, HIV/AIDS, the global porn industry, on-line dating services, virtual sex--whether for better of worse, our intimate lives are in the throes of dramatic change. In this thought-provoking study, sociologist Ken Plummer examines the transformations taking place in the realm of intimacy and the conflicts--the �intimate troubles�--to which these changes constantly give rise. In surveying the intimate possibilities now available to us and the issues swirling around them, Plummer focuses especially on the overlap of public and private. Increasingly, our most private decisions are bound up with public institutions such as legal codes, the medical system, or the media. What impact does the increasingly public character of personal life have on our sense of ourselves and on how we view our own intimate choices? To navigate our way through a world in which people�s private lives are so often subject to public scrutiny and debate, and in which the public sphere is increasingly pluralized and contested, we must broaden our understanding of what it means to be a citizen. Through the idea of "intimate citizenship," Plummer sets an important agenda for the years to come.
Download or read book Transsexualism and Sex Reassignment written by Richard Green and published by Johns Hopkins University Press. This book was released on 1969 with total page 546 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Transsexualism and Sex Reassignment had its origins in the advisory board meetings of the Henry Benjamin Foundation. In the earliest stages, it was discussed as a volume that would embody the findings of the research group working directly under the auspices of the Foundation. it soon became evident that such a limitation would make the book unnecessarily parochial. It would, for example, have excluded those patients who were treated and operated at the newly constituted John Hopkins Gender Identity Clinic and who were not also patients in the Harry Benjamin Foundation research study, as well as the important body of work being done elsewhere, especially in Europe.
