  BSAVA Manual of Rabbit Surgery, Dentistry and Imaging

  Rabbits make up a considerable proportion of the caseload in small animal practice, and knowledge of rabbit medicine and surgery has grown rapidly in the past decade such that one BSAVA Manual is no longer enough to do justice to this important pet. The all-new BSAVA Manual of Rabbit Surgery, Dentistry and Imaging concentrates on the major surgical and dental conditions that are so common in rabbits, while its sister volume (BSAVA Manual of Rabbit Medicine) concentrates on common medical conditions. To maximize surgical success, anaesthesia and analgesia are first discussed, including practical advice on different regimes for different situations/risk levels, chemical pain relief and also hospitalization and postoperative care. A section on imaging follows, covering not only radiographic techniques and their interpretation, but also ultrasonography, endoscopy, CT and MRI. The third part of the Manual is devoted to surgical techniques. General principles of rabbit surgery are discussed, as well as specific surgical techniques and procedures, from basic techniques such as neutering to more specialized techniques used in each organ system. The final section is devoted to dental disease and abscessation, including the techniques required for a full dental examination and evaluation. The range of treatment techniques available for cheek tooth overgrowth and dental abscesses is highlighted, and the reader is encouraged to draw their own conclusions as to the correct method to use in each case. Illustrated step-by-step Operative Techniques are provided for surgical and dental procedures, to enable the reader to benefit from the expertise of the international authors.

  Jason: 1 Stigma: 0: My Battle with Mental Illness at Home and in the Workplace , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 211min

  Mental illness can be treated - but stigma can be cured.Part memoir and part how-to, this engrossing book is the culmination of a lifetime of unique personal experiences with illness by author, Jason Finucan.As someone who has experienced both a major physical illness (heart defect leading to open heart surgery in 1988) and a major mental illness (bipolar disorder leading to hospitalization in 2005), Jason realized that the stigma still surrounding mental illness was unnecessarily making his diagnosis of bipolar disorder far worse than it needed to be. And this problem was happening everywhere.Despite significant gains in awareness in recent years, mental illnesses like clinical depression or anxiety disorder are still treated far differently from physical illnesses like cancer. As a result of the confusion, isolation, and lack of support created by stigma, there is an increase in the number of people suffering with untreated mental illnesses or, tragically, dying by suicide.In this book, Jason shares his alarmingly candid personal experiences with an engaging storytelling style and offers insight on how we perceive illness in our society today, the important role of empathy, and what we can all do to effect change. His goal is for everyone to understand this important topic so they are empowered to make a real change and ultimately join his vision for future without stigma.This is a mental health movement - and Jason wants you to be a part of it.PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio. ungekürzt.

  The Kevin Show: An Olympic Athlete's Battle with Mental Illness , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 495min

  From the New York Times best-selling author of The Monopolists, the incredible story of Olympic sailor Kevin Hall and the psychiatric syndrome that makes him believe he stars in a television show of his life.  Meet Kevin Hall, brother, son, husband, father, and Olympic and America's Cup sailor. Kevin has an Ivy League degree and a winning smile, and throughout his adult life he has been engaged in an ongoing battle with a person that doesn't exist to anyone but him: the Director.  Kevin suffers from what doctors are beginning to call the "Truman Show" delusion, a form of psychosis named for the 1998 movie, where the main character is trapped as the star of a reality TV show. When the Director commands Kevin to do things, the results can lead to handcuffs, hospitalization, or both. Once he nearly drove a car into Boston Harbor. His girlfriend, now wife, was in the passenger seat.  In the tradition of Kay Redfield Jamison's An Unquiet Mind, journalist Mary Pilon's The Kevin Show reveals the many-sided struggle by Kevin, his family, and the medical profession to understand and treat a psychiatric disorder whose euphoric highs and creative ties to pop culture have become inextricable from Kevin's experience of himself. Interweaving his perspective, journals, and sketches with police reports, medical records, and interviews with those who were present at key moments in his life, The Kevin Show is a bracing, suspenseful, and eye-opening view of the role that mental health plays in a seemingly ordinary life. ungekürzt.

  Life Interrupted: The Unfinished Monologue , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 134min

  Life Interrupted was the monologue that Spalding Gray was working on when he died in the early winter of 2004. Famous for his often manic and always humorous monologues, Gray was, by the late 1990s, in a happy marriage living in Long Island, doing yoga every day. But his life became unhinged after a devastating car accident in Ireland in 2001, which fractured his skull and crushed his hip. It sent Gray into a deep and unremitting depression. But the fact that Spalding had begun performing a new piece in October of last year gave his friends and family reason to hope that he was emerging from his despair. The monologue recounts the story of the accident and Gray's hospitalization in Ireland with gallows humor: "The following day I slipped into a depression, and I didn't know whether to tell the Irish about it, whether they would acknowledge this depression. I mean, does a fish know it's swimming in water? It's indigenous to the rainy culture." The last time Gray performed his work-in-progress "Life Interrupted" at PS 122, he also read a short story called "The Anniversary", about the afternoon he spent with young Theo at the Carousel in Central Park on the tenth anniversary of the day he met his wife, Kathie Russo. Like the unfinished monologue, this piece is also much darker than Gray's early work. The third piece in this collection is a very short, remarkably poignant letter Spalding wrote about the terrorist attacks of September 11, titled "Dear New York City". ungekürzt. Language: English.

  HarrisProject: Process, Research and Explanation: Artist Research for the Painting of the Founding Legend of Harrisburg, Pennsylvania, USA , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 183min

  From Harrisburg, Pennsylvania in the USA, a city mired in corruption and bankruptcy, plagued by racism, corruption, nepotism, oppressive Christianity, and a floundering Nazi legacy comes an African-American and Native-American hero to save the day! The studio of Bryan Thomas Molloy presents the HarrisProject! Showing the true history of this Central PA region as the oasis of tolerance, shelter from persecution, and center of global wealth and trade that it once was and may be again, the HarrisProject reintroduces these truths back into popular consciousness in glowing form with a re-creation of the most famous legend of the city's founder, John Harris. Painted lavishly in oils in historic, genre-melding, technical virtuosity, and using custom-made costumes and local craftsman, the six-foot wide panoramic scene features an actual descendant of John Harris posing as John Harris himself, and a former Broadway Dancer as the heroic rescuing chief. Secret ancient historical information, celestial symbolism, and fantastic artistic technique are delivered within the compositional arrangements and careful selection of colors and elements - including the use of the Lost Angles Process and Renaissance Pattern Echoing. The research phase alone took over six years of pouring intensively through historical records in many universities and museums throughout the world, and formed the foundation for the project. The final painting itself took more than three years of meticulous patience and dedicated attention to detail and technique. The entire process of the HarrisProject spanned a triumph by the artist over multiple personal tragedies including family deaths, a nervous breakdown, hospitalization, and a near-death experience. Each instance being a terrifying threat to the completion of this elaborate work of art. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Andy Taylor.

  Proof of Heaven: Dr. Eben Alexander III M.D. -- Book Summary & Analysis , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 33min

  SAVE TIME & UNDERSTAND MORE! WARNING: This is not the actual audiobook Proof of Heaven by Eben Alexander. Do not buy this audiobook summary and review if you are looking for a full copy of this very interesting and inspirational book or audiobook, which can be found back on the Amazon search page. Instead, we have already read Proof of Heaven and pulled out all the key insights, events and take-away points to give you a comprehensive chapter-by-chapter summary and review in an engaging and easily digestible format. In doing so, unfortunately we do not have the space to describe all of the helpful background scenery or events. To get it all, you need to order the full book or audiobook. This concise summary and review works best as an unofficial study guide or companion to listen to alongside this enlightening book or audiobook. Many are skeptical of so-called "near-death experiences." Given his neuroscience background, Dr. Eben Alexander III was one of those skeptics - until he had an experience of his own. In Proof of Heaven, Alexander details his terrifying but fascinating ride through a life threatening illness and hospitalization. He drifts in and out of consciousness throughout the book, thus shifting the narrative from chapter-to-chapter. At times he describes the interactions he has with his doctors and family at his hospital bedside, while at other times he articulates the enlightening visions and encounters he experiences in another state of consciousness. By the time he has made it through this near-death experience, he has undergone a thorough transformation from nonbeliever to believer in an afterlife. ungekürzt. Language: English.

  Vaping 101: A Q&A Guide for Parents and Teachers: A Doctor's Advice on How to Keep Your Teens Safe from the Dangers of Vaping , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 63min

  Welcome to Vaping 101. As a physician and a parent, I know that you have questions about vaping. This comprehensive guide was designed to answer all of your questions and more. It will educate you on vaping and arm you with the information you need to educate your family and friends in hopes that they decide to stop or, hopefully, never even start to use electronic cigarettes.This guide contains a review of the latest research and surveys to provide the most accurate information, but more importantly, we break it down into plain language so that you and your teens (or young adults) will both be able to understand why vaping is such a dangerous activity.We have spent the past several months educating the public at town hall gatherings. After speaking with hundreds of school nurses, teachers, students, and concerned parents about the vaping epidemic, we are confident that this guide will answer all your questions.The vaping epidemic is real. Here are some sobering statistics: The 2019 National Youth Tobacco Survey (NYTS), a large-scale survey of teens conducted by the CDC and FDA, reported that more than five million students reported they had used e-cigarettes within the past 30 days and that one million report they use them on a daily basis. This means that one in four high school students is vaping and one in 10 middle school students is vaping.Although vaping was initially introduced in America as an alternate method for current cigarette smokers to attempt to quit smoking, it has become a recreational activity and the leading vehicle by which teenagers are introduced to tobacco and nicotine.As of January 21, 2020, more than 2,700 cases of e-cigarette or vaping-associated lung injury (EVALI) requiring hospitalization have been reported in the US, with 60 fatalities confirmed by the CDC. Current data suggests a strong association between these hospitalizations and e-cigarette liquids containing tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Uzo Odili, MD.
