Download or read book Cancer and Chronic Conditions written by Bogda Koczwara and published by Springer. This book was released on 2018-06-15 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book addresses the growing problem of multimorbidity in cancer patients and survivors with the focus on how to best integrate the effective cancer care with the care of multiple chronic conditions. As cancer is more prevalent in older individuals, many patients with cancer also suffer from other chronic conditions that impact on the uptake, tolerance and outcomes of cancer treatment and their long term mortality and morbidity. In addition, cancer and its treatment increase the risk of future chronic conditions. Readers will examine the prevalence and predictors of chronic conditions in cancer, impact of chronic conditions on screening and treatment, evidence for preventative strategies that address both cancer and chronic conditions, emerging management and care integration strategies and directions for management of multimorbidity in special cancer populations – the very young, the very old and those at the end of life. Authored by clinicians and researchers from diverse expertise including epidemiology, sociology, hematology, medical oncology, palliative care, pharmacy and representing Australia, New Zealand, US, Canada and the Netherlands, the book brings an international perspective to a problem that affects all cancer settings. The book is going to be of interest to diverse professionals interested in cancer control including epidemiologists, public health researchers, policy makers as well as clinicians dealing with cancer patients within specialist cancer and non-cancer and primary care settings.

Book Synopsis The Waitangi Tribunal by : Janine Hayward
Download or read book The Waitangi Tribunal written by Janine Hayward and published by Bridget Williams Books. This book was released on 2016-09-26 with total page 367 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Waitangi Tribunal sits at the heart of the Treaty settlement process, with a unique remit to investigate claims and recommend settlements. But although the claims process has been hugely controversial, little has been written about the Tribunal itself. These essays, by leading academics, lawyers and researchers, successfully fill that gap, examining the Tribunal’s role in reshaping Māori identity and society, the Tribunal’s future mission, and its contribution to ideas of justice and reparation. This perceptive analysis of a key institution is vital reading for anyone seeking to understand Treaty settlements.

Book Synopsis Knowledge Translation in Context by : Elizabeth M. Banister
Download or read book Knowledge Translation in Context written by Elizabeth M. Banister and published by University of Toronto Press. This book was released on 2011-03-01 with total page 225 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The main goal of knowledge translation (KT) is to ensure that diverse communities benefit from academic research results through improved social and health outcomes. But despite growing interest in researcher-user collaborations, little is known about what makes or breaks these types of relationships. Knowledge Translation in Context is an essential tool for researchers to learn how to be effective partners in the KT process. Drawing on expertise and studies from across the globe, Elizabeth Banister, Bonnie Leadbeater, and Anne Marshall outline a variety of perspectives on KT processes. Case studies outline the uses of KT in many contexts, including community, policy, Indigenous, and non-profit organizations. While recognizing the specificity of each situation, Knowledge Translation in Context highlights the most important elements that have led KT to succeed (or fail) as a dynamic, multidirectional process.

Download or read book Borderland Practices written by Kevin Dew and published by Otago University Press. This book was released on 2003 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There are quacks and charlatans on both sides of the orthodox/alternative medicine divide, yet there are therapeutic practices which are undeniably beneficial on both sides as well, argues Dew. For him, the problem becomes the ways in which these practices are validated and regulated, encompassing questions of access to state funds, who has the right to control particular techniques, what standards are used to provide legitimacy, and other conundrums. He argues that alternative therapies are being subsumed by a philosophy of rationalism that promotes a particular orthodoxy that limits the accepted claims and practices of alternative medicines in New Zealand.
