Worldwide, human life is headed for longevity. On the other hand, humans have a desire to stay healthy and live longer. However, synthetic drugs are immediately effective, but some drugs can cause serious side effects. From about 100 to 150 years ago, humans have used all diseases for treatment and prevention, using natural resources such as plants, animals and minerals. These natural ingredients can minimise side effects etc. even after long-term administration. In addition, these natural ingredients can also control chronic toxicity etc. in a concentration-dependent manner. Based on these ideas, this book will focus on plant ingredients and plants that can be expected to maintain health until this longevity.

Sonja Schiff
R1,170 Discovery Miles 11 700 Ships in 12 - 19 working days

Altenpflege ist Beziehungs- und Gefuhlsarbeit. Sie erfordert Mut und Kompetenz, mit der Vergangenheit alter Menschen umzugehen, mit erlebtem Lebensgluck ebenso wie mit Trauer und Verzweiflung. Bei vielen Pflegenden gibt es eine Sehnsucht nach Begegnungen mit alten Menschen. Trotzdem bleiben viele Kontakte, aus Unsicherheit oder Angst, an der Oberflache. Eine wesentliche empathische Erfahrung geht damit verloren. Denn es koennen besondere Begegnungen entstehen, wenn Pflegepersonen es wagen, sich wirklich auf alte Menschen einzulassen. Genau diese magischen Momente sind es, die Altenpflege fur viele Pflegende so spannend machen. Sie starken die Berufszufriedenheit, geben Kraft fur schwierige berufliche Zeiten und sind ein, bis dato voellig unterschatzter Grund, warum Pflegende im Beruf bleiben. Sonja Schiff erzahlt ihre eigenen Schlusselerlebnisse mit alten Menschen und lasst auch andere Personen - unterschiedliche Professionisten aus der Altenpflege- und Altenbetreuung - in Form von strukturierten Interviews zu Wort kommen. Es entstanden Geschichten, die die Leserin/den Leser tief beruhren und Kraft geben. Gepaart mit einem leidenschaftlichen Pladoyer fur eine dringende Weiterentwicklung der Altenpflege und Kritik am bestehenden System, geht sie auch der Frage nach, welchen Anteil Pflegepersonen selbst an der Erreichung eines magischen Moments haben und wie sie diese umsetzen koennen. Jedes Kapitel wird eingeleitet und mit Aufgaben beendet, die zum Ausprobieren motivieren. Ein "Mutmach-Buch" fur alle Pflege- und Betreuungskrafte der Altenpflege. Es richtet sich aber auch an Fuhrungskrafte von Altenpflegeeinrichtungen, Angehoerige und sozialpolitisch tatige Personen.

Social Theories of Aging - A Brief Synopsis (Paperback): Kelly Niles-Yokum, Pamela Pitman Brown, Hallie Baker Social Theories of Aging - A Brief Synopsis (Paperback)
Kelly Niles-Yokum, Pamela Pitman Brown, Hallie Baker
R2,285 Discovery Miles 22 850 Ships in 10 - 15 working days

Social Theories of Aging: A Brief Synopsis introduces students to a broad spectrum of social theories on aging. Each theory is categorized as first, second, or third generation according to three theoretical levels: micro-level (individual aging theories), macro-level (societal aging theories), and micro-macro-level (emerging theories). The book provides students not only with a synopsis of key theories but with the agency to create their own knowledge and search for answers within the gerontology discipline. Over the course of six chapters, students explore a variety of generational theories. Each overview presents a theory's level, intellectual origins, and basic tenets. The theories span many fields and subfields of gerontology including social gerontology, sociology, anthropology, public administration, psychology, social work, and geriatrics. Activity Theory, Disengagement Theory, Modernization Theory, Continuity Theory, Exchange Theory, Age Stratification, Social Constructionist, and Transformative Learning Theory are just a few of the theories addressed in the text. Highly accessible and concise in nature, Social Theories of Aging is an ideal textbook for introductory gerontology courses. It can also be used in graduate level courses to remind students of the theoretical underpinnings of gerontology.
