Statistics as Principled Argument
In Statistics as Principled Argument, first published in 1995, Robert P. Abelson exposes the often-overlooked problems in quantitative data interpretation, and the challenge of presenting the data in terms of a coherent narrative about one's research. This classic edition offers a new introduction which views Abelson's work through a contemporary lens, highlighting how his teachings remain vitally relevant today. The focus of the book is that the purpose of statistics is to organize a useful argument from quantitative evidence, using a form of principled rhetoric. Five criteria, described by the acronym MAGIC (magnitude, articulation, generality, interestingness, and credibility) are proposed as crucial features of a persuasive, principled argument. Statistical methods are discussed, but with minimum use of formulas and heavy data sets. The ideas throughout the book revolve around elementary probability theory, t-tests, and simple issues of research design. Many examples are included to explain the connection of statistics to substantive claims about real phenomena. This remarkably engaging read is filled with fascinating real-life (and real research) examples rather than simply recipes for analysis. Abelson’s insights generate true interest for beginning graduate students and seasoned researchers alike, and will be invaluable to students, scholars, researchers, and practitioners who use statistics within their research.
Kezelés vagy gyógyítás? - Tévutak és új lehetőségek a rákterápiában
Az orvoslás a középkor óta úgy tekint az emberi testre, mint mesterember az elromlott készülékre, amelyet neki vizsgálgatnia és szétszednie kell, hogy megtalálja a hibát. Vagyis az orvosok azt feltételezik, hogy a hibás működésre magában a gépben van a válasz.
A hiba azonban nem a gépezetben, hanem a használatában rejlik! A társadalmi evolúció teremtett olyan környezetet, amelyhez az emberi szervezet egyszerűen nem tud már alkalmazkodni. Ezt egyértelműen bizonyítja az a tény, hogy a továbbra is paleolit kori körülmények között élő természeti népek közt gyakorlatilag ismeretlenek az olyan rendszerbetegségek, mint amilyen a rák.
Ha nem pusztán kezelni, hanem meggyógyítani akarjuk a rákot, ahhoz meg kell értenünk a működését. Ehhez pedig előbb meg kell értenünk, miként vált civilizációs népbetegséggé, és azt is, hogyan ment többszörösen tévútra a rákkutatás.
Szendi Gábor új könyve a jelenlegi onkológia gyenge pontjait mutatja be, de a kritikákon túl szerencsére egy új korszak nyitányáról is beszámol. A gyógyszer-újrahasznosítás tudományos irányzata már létező, általában olcsó, könnyen hozzáférhető és kíméletes gyógyszerek rákellenes hatásának kutatásába kezdett, ebből pedig nagyszerű eredmények születtek: nagyon sok beteg kapta vissza a reményt, és élhet újra teljes életet.
"Régóta foglalkozom az orvoslás rendszerszintű problémáival, és ahol csak megkapirgáltam a felszínt, mindig a téveszmék gondosan felépített, aprólékosan kidolgozott rendszerébe ütköztem, amit tudománynak neveznek. A gyakorlatban ez gyógyítás helyett a halál elodázását jelenti. Most úgy érzem, kinyílt egy ajtó, amelyen át kijuthatunk ebből az életveszélyes nagyüzemből. Akik már kijutottak, visszaszerzett életükkel bizonyítják, hogy járható az út."

Pooperační nevolnost a zvracení
Pooperační nevolnost a zvracení (PONV) patří v časné pooperační péči mezi nejčastější komplikace, které vedle subjektivního diskomfortu mají řadu fyziologických a metabolických následků a rovněž mohou významně prodloužit rekonvalescenci a hospitalizaci pacienta.

Tato kniha podává komplexní přehled o problematice PONV, od patofyziologie až po současné možnosti prevence a léčby, přičemž uvedené postupy reflektují nejnovější vědecké poznatky a doporučení. Důraz je kladen především na identifikaci rizikových pacientů a možnosti farmakologické profylaxe.

Buddhist Psychotherapy
A rich resource enabling therapists to bring Buddhist philosophy to modern psychotherapy. Mindfulness-based interventions have become popular mental health treatments in recent years, but these interventions are typically applied by practitioners who lack knowledge of the interventions’ Buddhist origins. The historical, religious, and philosophical foundations of mindfulness offer essential insights for clinicians and researchers alike. This book, a collaboration between two practicing psychologists and an ordained Buddhist nun, examines the early Buddhist philosophical roots of mindfulness and provides a model for modern psychotherapy. In Buddhist psychotherapy, the therapist listens to a client discuss their concerns, considers how the client’s suffering can be conceptualized from a Buddhist worldview, and uses mindfulness and other techniques taught by the Buddha to address the source of their suffering. This framework does not rely on any specific spiritual belief, but instead seeks to alleviate client suffering in a world where everything is ultimately impermanent and impersonal. Amply illustrated with quotes from early Buddhist literature as well as modern clinical examples, this rich volume will help modern psychotherapists deepen their understanding of mindfulness and enrich their practice.

The Measure of Merit
A wide-ranging account of American and French understandings of merit, talent, and intelligence over the past two centuriesHow have modern democracies squared their commitment to equality with their fear that disparities in talent and intelligence might be natural, persistent, and consequential? John Carson tells the fascinating story of how two nations wrestled scientifically with human inequalities and their social and political implications. Surveying a broad array of political tracts, philosophical treatises, scientific works, and journalistic writings, Carson chronicles the gradual embrace of the IQ version of intelligence in the United States, while in France, the birthplace of the modern intelligence test, expert judgment was consistently prized above such quantitative measures. He also reveals the crucial role that determinations of, and contests over, merit have played in both societies—they have helped to organize educational systems, justify racial hierarchies, classify army recruits, and direct individuals onto particular educational and career paths. A contribution to both the history of science and intellectual history, The Measure of Merit illuminates the shadow languages of inequality that have haunted the American and French republics since their inceptions.
Explorations in Fatherland
This book explores the role of fathers from a broadly psychoanalytic lens, looking at fatherhood from the evolving perspective of fathers, the rest of the family, and society as a whole.Edwards draws on her rich clinical experience spanning over thirty years to look at the issues and problems around the role of the father in clinical work with a range of patients, spanning from classical psychoanalytic thinking to fiction, myth, and iconography. These multifaceted approaches allow us to explore the complexities of fatherhood for each unit of the family and to tease out both the problems and positives associated with fathers and fatherhood. Enriched with clinical vignettes, this book shares a new outlook on how patterns of manhood or personhood evolve over time and encourages the reader to not limit paternal function to sexual or cultural binaries.At a time when the role of men in society is ever more under debate, this book offers a fascinating and multi-faceted exploration of a key role for men and offers guidance to clinicians, and anyone interested in exploring the notion of fatherhood.
Job Stress Revisited
Provides a comprehensive framework for understanding mental health in the workplace Job Stress Revisited: A Thought Provoking Take on Mental Health and Work offers a critical and much-needed re-evaluation of how job stress is understood, addressed, and managed in modern workplaces.

Empowering readers to become informed advocates for lasting change, the book offers a multi-dimensional exploration of job stress, informed by biological, epidemiological, and activity-centered approaches. A structured three-part format builds from foundational concepts to actionable solutions, first clearly defining essential concepts—work, health, and their intersections—before delving into critical issues such as burnout, harassment, toxic workplace dynamics, and substance use. In the final section, Durand-Moreau calls for systemic change, advocating for robust policies, workplace inspections, and structural reform rather than temporary fixes. A practical guide for those who seek to make work environments healthier and more equitable, Job Stress Revisited: A Thought Provoking Take on Mental Health and Work: Challenges prevailing wellness narratives by shifting focus from individuals to systemic workplace factorsIntegrates clinical insights from over 400 work-related mental health casesOffers a comparative international perspective, especially from Canadian and French occupational health systemsCombines theoretical analysis with practical case studies to enhance accessibilityExplores lesser-addressed topics such as doping at work With vivid case studies and accessible illustrations throughout, Job Stress Revisited: A Thought Provoking Take on Mental Health and Work is essential reading for graduate and professional-level courses such as Occupational Health, Work Psychology, Organizational Behavior, and Public Health Policy.
