This fascinating new book describes the evolution of the medical
profession and how the role of the doctor and expectations of that
role have changed over time. It critically examines developments in
the light of both external influences such as the ageing
population, patient attitudes and knowledge and government
regulation, and internal changes such as the increasing knowledge
base, advances in technology and changes in recruitment. Challenges
in management, working environment, education and training are
considered and practical recommendations for both practicing and
student doctors are offered. The holistic approach is supported
with contributions from both primary and secondary care
practitioners together with academics and educationalists. It is
highly recommended for doctors and medical students seeking new
strategies for understanding and managing change. Sociologists and
policy makers, too, will find the wide-ranging perspectives
enlightening.

The intersections of aging, media, and culture are under-explored
given trends in population aging, rapid increases in the mediation
of everyday life, and the growing cultural significance of media
consumption at the global level. This book brings together an
international collection of critical scholars, both
well-established and up-and-coming, from the various academic
disciplines that share a common interest in the future study of
aging and media. This anthology of original articles integrates
aging theory and media studies through a study of core issues
including the media's influence on the construction of "old age,"
the reciprocal influence of aging on media industries, age-based
identities in a mediated world, issues of gender and sexuality in
an aging society, and the practical implications of a more
integrated approach between the two fields. The chapters explore
the intersections between aging and media in the realms of
advertising/marketing, television, film, music, celebrity and
social media, among others.
This project is very personal to the writer as she shares her
testimonies and experiences with God! Her prayer is that it helps
others to look beyond Christianity as just a religion and seek an
intimate relationship with Christ. For our walk to be successful,
we must have a relationship with Christ. It has to be beyond just
knowing of Him or obeying Him.We also have to ensure that we
maintain our relationship with Him. This project looks at these
things.
This project uses life situations to show how sin attacks us subtly
and can become strongholds in our lives. The purpose of it is to
have readers see these traps and avoid them. The project is
specific to young people and singles and the challenges of dealing
with premarital sex.
