Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Epilepsy, traditionally the Cinderella of medicine, now has a higher profile thanks to the efforts of the World Health Organisation who have led a campaign called Out of the Shadows, to make the public more aware of the condition. In particular, there has been much more awareness of the plight of women with epilepsy and their reproductive health, especially the problem of certain anti-convulsant medications and their effects on the unborn child. This new edition strengthens the focus on women and gives a strong update on drugs and surgery, a sometimes neglected but modern approach which may actually cure epilepsy.

Book Synopsis High Risk Body Size by : Funke Baffour
Download or read book High Risk Body Size written by Funke Baffour and published by Sheldon Press. This book was released on 2011-02-15 with total page 107 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many people feel they've tried everything in a vain attempt to lose weight - but make the mistake of looking at eating plans, instead of the thinking that drives their behaviour. High Risk Body Size says that diets fail in the mind, not the body, and takes an exciting, challenging look at the underlying psychological reasons for excess and unwanted weight gain. It shows how to break out of the obsession with weight, and the need for instant remedies, which may in themselves become dangers to our health, and looks at why some people opt for weight loss surgery as a desperate last remedy despite its well-publicised risks. Overweight people are often misunderstood as being weak-willed, but they may simply need to learn new ways of thinking - this book shows you how.

Book Synopsis Divorce and Separation by : Mary Welstead
Download or read book Divorce and Separation written by Mary Welstead and published by Sheldon Press. This book was released on 2010-09-23 with total page 196 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When money flies out of the window, love walks out of the door. In good times, money papers over the cracks in a relationship; in bad times, fault-lines become divorce suits' The recession is putting many partnerships under strain. A top London law firm reports a record number of people making appointments to see family lawyers. Relate has also experienced an increase in the number of people contacting them for relationship counselling, while the online advice centre InsideDivorce.com, has reported that two million married couples in the UK are experiencing marital problems and that 1.3 million people are actively considering leaving their marriage. Even in good times, almost 50% of marriages end in divorce in England and Wales. It seems, therefore, that many people need advice when faced with relationship breakdown. This book provides a practical guide to the process couples must undergo in order to legally end their marriage, and - while it is not a counselling manual - aims to help them realise that they are not the only people to have found themselves facing the complexities of ending a relationship. Topics covered include: Is this really happening to me? - what has gone wrong? Children; Finances; The divorce process; Separation; Annulment; Ending civil partnerships; Life after divorce.
Book Synopsis Making Sense of Trauma by : Nigel Hunt
Download or read book Making Sense of Trauma written by Nigel Hunt and published by Sheldon Press. This book was released on 2012-02-16 with total page 157 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is aimed at people who have experienced distressful and traumatising experiences such as war, sexual abuse or rape, natural and manmade disasters, car accidents, or the death of a loved one. Most people have had such an experience, and evidence suggests somewhere between 5-25% of people have significant problems as a result; not necessarily full post-traumatic stress disorder, but also anxiety and depression, or substance abuse. There is ample evidence to show that people recover from traumatic or distressful events by telling their story, by making sense of what happened. The narrative techniques described in the book will help people with that process of meaning making. Topics include: What we mean by a traumatic event Coping and support Narrative storytelling - telling your story to a person, therapist or group Writing it down Guided Narrative Techniques - more sophisticated form of writing and/or talking techniques, eg Narrative Exposure Therapy (N.E.T.) Arts and narrative - eg writing, pictures, cartoons, photography.

Book Synopsis Coping with Rheumatism and Arthritis by : Keith Souter
Download or read book Coping with Rheumatism and Arthritis written by Keith Souter and published by Sheldon Press. This book was released on 2010-07-15 with total page 184 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: More than 10 million people in the UK have arthritis and rheumatism, and the number seems to be increasing year by year. About 20 per cent of all doctor visits are for these and related musculoskeletal conditions, making this the largest group of patients attending surgeries. Although these disorders are not in themselves a major cause of death, they are the largest cause of pain and disability. Over three million adults are physically disabled because of such problems. Arthritis and rheumatism are blanket terms that cover many different conditions. Osteoarthritis is the most common form of arthritis; currently affecting more than eight million people in the UK. In addition, there are about a million people with rheumatoid arthritis. Fibromyalgia is even more common than rheumatoid arthritis. People of all ages can be affected - e.g some 15,000 children are affected by juvenile arthritis. While there is much the doctor can do, this book looks at how to help yourself. One of the main themes of this book is what the author calls the Life Cycle, which demonstrates how aspects of a person's life interact to influence their condition including body, emotions, mind and lifestyle.

Book Synopsis Menopause in Perspective by : Philippa Pigache
Download or read book Menopause in Perspective written by Philippa Pigache and published by Sheldon Press. This book was released on 2011-01-01 with total page 150 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Increasing medicalisation of the menopause has left many women feeling unsure and unconfident about this stage of their lives. While doctors may be able to help with some of the more unpleasant symptoms, menopause is a transition rather than a medical condition. Just as menarche ushered in the childbearing years, so menopause heralds the passing of this era in a woman's life; in both cases, the same hormones are making their entry and exit. So why is this hormonal change regarded as a medical event? If drugs are not needed at menarche, why should they be needed at menopause? Is the discomfort that unbearable, and are there other ways to help? This book looks at the options - both what the doctor can offer, and other ways to cope. Topics include: how naturally produced hormones change during the menopause; is it a natural event or historic accident? do you need medical treatment; if so, for which symptoms? is HRT the best thing for you? menopause and your heart and circulation; reducing the risk of cancer; taking care of your bones and skin; sex during and after the menopause; making the most of the rest of your life.
