Book Synopsis The Hand Book by : Miryam Z. Wahrman
Download or read book The Hand Book written by Miryam Z. Wahrman and published by University Press of New England. This book was released on 2016-05-03 with total page 250 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Handwashing, as part of basic hygiene, is a no-brainer. Whenever there's an outbreak of a contagious disease, we are advised that the first line of defense is proper handwashing. Nonetheless, many people, including healthcare workers, ignore this advice and routinely fail to wash their hands. Those who neglect to follow proper handwashing protocols put us at risk for serious disease - and even death. In this well-researched book, Wahrman discusses the microbes that live among us, both benign and malevolent. She looks at how ancient cultures dealt with disease and hygiene and how scientific developments led to the germ theory, which laid the foundation for modern hygiene. She investigates hand hygiene in clinical settings, where lapses by medical professionals can lead to serious, even deadly, complications. She explains how microbes found on environmental surfaces can transmit disease and offers strategies to decrease transmission from person to person. The book's final chapter explores initiatives for grappling with ever more complex microbial issues, such as drug resistance and the dangers of residing in an interconnected world, and presents practical advice for hand hygiene and reducing infection. With chapters that conclude with handy reference lists, The Hand Book serves as a road map to safer hands and better hygiene and health. It is essential reading for the general public, healthcare professionals, educators, parents, community leaders, and politicians.

Download or read book The Germ Code written by Jason Tetro and published by Doubleday Canada. This book was released on 2013-11-05 with total page 274 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since the dawn of the human race, germs have been making us sick. Whether the ailment is a cold, the flu, diabetes, obesity or certain cancers, the likely cause is germs. Our ancient enemies have four families - bacteria, viruses, fungi, and protozoa - and many names: Ebola, E. coli, salmonella, norovirus, gonorrhea. . . Human beings are engaged in a "war on germs," in which we develop ever-more sophisticated weapons and defensive strategies. But it is a war we can never win. Our best plan for staying as healthy is to choose our battles carefully, and try to co-exist with germs as best we can. The Germ Code is a wise, witty and wonderfully readable guide to our relationship with these infinitesimal but infinitely powerful creatures. Microbiologist Jason Tetro takes us outside the lab and shows the enormous influence of germs upon humanity's past, present and future. He unlocks the mysteries of "the germ code" to reveal how these organisms have exploited our every activity and colonized every corner of the earth. From his own research and personal experience, Tetro relates how the most recent flu pandemic happened, how others may have been averted and how more may come about if we aren't careful. He also explains that not every germ is our foe, and offers advice on harnessing the power of good germs to stay healthy and make our planet a better place. The Germ Code is a fascinating journey through an unseen world, an essential manual to living in harmony with germs and a life-enhancing (as well as life-saving!) good read.

This book was released on 2005-09-15 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Admit it, you either are one or you know one: a person who prefers the scent of Purell to perfume, hates public restroom toilets and pushes elevator buttons with their elbow. In a word (well, two), a “Germ Freak.” Well guess what—they’re right! In the bestselling tradition of the The Paranoid's Pocket Guide and The Worst Case Scenario Handbook, Allison Janse—a committed Germ Freak—gives readers the lowdown on how to avoid the common cold and survive flu season with your health and sanity intact. This is the practical information your doctor won’t give you (they always say not to worry and may be giving you the latest bug by not washing their hands when they examine you!), but which you’re almost literally dying to know, such as: - How clean is my office desk? (In terms of germs, it’s better to eat off a toilet seat) - Do I have to shake that snotty person’s hand? (The new etiquette says no) - Are my hygiene products killing me? (No, but some increase your risk of illness) - How do I get out of a public restroom without contamination? (Here’s a five-step plan) - What is the best way to wash my hands? (You have two detailed options) - Am I the only germ freak in America? (Don’t worry, 48% of women either use the toilet guard or make their own) - Why didn’t anyone tell me about The New Respiratory Etiquette? (Yes, it’s real,and it’s specifically designed for Germ Freaks just like you) Germ Freaks unite! This book will help unenlightened germspreaders get a clue…or at least a HandiWipe…and prove to the world that, in the end, it’s far better to be safe than sorry. QUIZ: Are You a Germfreak? Some Ways to Tell * Your exit strategy from a public bathroom rivals an NFL playbook * Your family and friends think Purell is your scent * You check elevator riders for anyone who is sniffling and opt for the stairs— even though you're going to the Penthouse * You turn all public bathroom faucets with a piece of tissue * You avoid buffets that don’t have 10-foot-high GermGuard barriers * You think BYOB means bring your own bathroom hand towels * You only go to afternoon (or really bad) movies because they’re less crowded If you answered yes to any one of these questions, you're on your way to becoming a Germ freak. If you answered yes to two or more, congratulations, you're a full-fledged freak.
Download or read book Germs written by Richard Wollheim and published by New York Review of Books. This book was released on 2021-02-02 with total page 337 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A brilliant, sinuous exploration of family and childhood memory by one of the most original British philosophers of the twentieth century. Germs is about first things, the seeds from which a life grows, as well as about the illnesses it incurs, the damage it sustains. Written at the end of his life by Richard Wollheim, one of the major philosophers of the late twentieth century, the book is not the usual story of growing up and getting on but a brilliant recovery and evocation of childhood consciousness and unconsciousness, an eerily precise rendering of that primitive, formative world we all come from in which we do not know either the world or ourselves for sure, and things—houses, clothes, meals, parents—loom large around us, as indispensable as they are out of our control. Richard Wollheim’s remarkably original memoir is a disturbing, enthralling, dispassionate but also deeply personal depiction of a child standing, fascinated and fearful, on the threshold of individual life.
