What's Up Doc? - Hilary Jones - Bog - Transworld Publishers Ltd - Plusbog.dk

What's Up Doc? - Hilary Jones - Bog - Transworld Publishers Ltd - Plusbog.dk

For Dr Hilary Jones, the question ''What''s up doc?'' has been asked of him ever since he qualified as a doctor at the Royal Free hospital in London over thirty years ago.As a junior medic patients used to ask him ''What''s up?'' when he prodded their bellies for signs of appendicitis. On the GMTV sofa presenters ask him ''What''s up?'' with the latest actress who has developed the typical tell-tale signs of anorexia nervosa. In the tabloid newspapers he''s asked to comment on what''s up with the premier league footballer who purports to suffer from sex addiction.On the radio he''s asked ''What''s up?'' with the health of society in general, suffering as it does from epidemics of obesity and binge drinking. On a more everyday basis, in the GP surgery people ask him about unexplained lumps in their neck, or whether a pigmented mole is suspicious. Colleagues at work stop him in the corridor and say ''Can I just ask you about my child''s leukaemia'' or ''My mum''s dementia?'' At dinner parties people ask him about their haemorrhoids, or in pubs on the various merits of vasectomy. He''s even been approached by complete strangers in dimly lit streets eager to hear his take on methadone and whether or not the NHS should freely supply it. And they ask him what Lorraine Kelly is really like, of course...

Fragile Minds - Bella Jackson - Bog - Transworld Publishers Ltd - Plusbog.dk

Fragile Minds - Bella Jackson - Bog - Transworld Publishers Ltd - Plusbog.dk

There is a narrative we’ve become comfortable with: Mental health services are underfunded and understaffed. But that is only half the story. The other half is messy and confronting; uncomfortable enough to make us look sharply away. It is the story of the staff who believed they could make a difference, but were worn down by morally ambiguous tasks, impossible workloads and a systemic resistance to change. It is the story of the patients who are failed by hastily made diagnoses, overreliance on medication, coercion, stigma and inconsistency of care, and of the inspiring individuals struggling for justice and revolution.Beautifully wrought and staggeringly urgent , Fragile Minds documents Bella Jackson''s time as a trainee mental health nurse, and the devastation and hope she encountered in winding corridors and behind locked doors. With compassion and care Bella introduces us to a vivid cast of staff and patients, prompting us to look closer, ask questions and demand more for them.

A Very Human Ending - Jesse Bering - Bog - Transworld Publishers Ltd - Plusbog.dk

''I have yet to come away from reading [Bering''s] work and not feel considerably better informed than I was minutes before'' ( Forbes ) __________________ This penetrating analysis aims to demystify a subject that knows no cultural or demographic boundaries.Why do people want to kill themselves? Despite the prevalence of suicide in the developed world, it''s a question most of us fail to ask. On hearing news of a suicide we are devastated, but overwhelmingly we feel disbelief.In A Very Human Ending, research psychologist Jesse Bering lifts the lid on this taboo subject, examining the suicidal mindset from the inside out to reveal the subtle tricks the mind can play when we''re easy emotional prey. In raising challenging questions Bering tests our contradictory superstitions about the act itself. Combining cutting-edge research with investigative journalism and first-person testimony, Bering also addresses the history of suicide and its evolutionary inheritance to offer a personal, accessible, yet scientifically sound examination of why we are the only species on earth that deliberately ends its own life.

Women and Leadership - Ngozi Okonjo Iweala - Bog - Transworld Publishers Ltd - Plusbog.dk

For readers of Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie, Sheryl Sandberg and Mary Beard, Women and Leadership is a powerful call to arms about the lack of women at the top. ''Who better qualified to delve into this topic?'' Business Life _______________Women make up less than 10 per cent of national leaders. Behind this statistic lies a pattern of unequal access to power. Drawing on current research and in conversation with some of the world''s most powerful and interesting women about their lived experience, Gillard and Okonjo-Iweala explore gender bias and ask how we get more women into leadership roles. Speaking honestly and freely, women leaders such as Jacinda Ardern , Hillary Clinton , Michelle Bachelet and Theresa May talk about their ideas receiving less acknowledgement than their male colleagues'' ideas, what it''s like to be body-shamed in the media, and the things they wish they had done differently. Their stories reveal how gender and sexism affect perceptions of women as leaders, their pathways to power and the circumstances in which their leadership comes to an end. The result is a rare insight into life as a leader and a powerful call to arms for women everywhere.
