Panacea or revolution? 'Evidence-based medicine' and 'cost-effectiveness' have become buzz-phrases for a wide variety of initiatives and planning processes which aim to give patients treatments that will benefit them. On the surface this seems a reasonable idea, but there are underlying currents which cast doubt on the process and reveal methodological problems, which must be understood if the concepts are to be properly used. Assuming no prior knowledge of the field, and written in the clear, straightforward manner the author uses in the highly successful Health Economics for the Uninitiated, this book is a short practical guide on how to use these concepts, and how to avoid their pitfalls. It will appeal to doctors, nurses, health service managers, patient organizations, academics and students of health care. It will provide essential support to those working in health care companies, and in the pharmaceutical and medical equipment industry.

Thinking about God is historical thinking and that in two senses: the idea of God has a history, and those who think about God think through an historically formed mind. The task of the theologian, is not the attempt to move outside his historicity - such an attempt constitutes a fallacy and not a virtue - but to accept its implications and limitations. Methodologically this means that the theologian must point to the historical perspectives that underlie the idea of God in its development and, in his own constructive thought, must work self-consciously with an historical perspective informed by the psychological and cosmological understanding of his own time. This book centers on that idea which traditionally has been associated with the very godness of God - the idea of divine abso luteness - and puts certain historical, logical, religious and, finally, cosmological questions to it. The roots of that idea lie in Greek thought, which entered Christian theology via the early church is much indication, particularly in Patristic fathers; even so, there trinitarian thought, that the Biblical heritage is pushing theological thlnking towards a social or relative concept of divine being (ch. 1)."

There is no doctrine which distinguishes Lutheranism from the vast world of Protestantism more than the teaching of the Lord's Supper. The contention that Christ's body and blood are in, with, and under the Eucharistic elements in central to Lutheran identity. In this work, Henry Immanuel Schmidt defends the historic Lutheran teaching on this subject against some who claimed the name Lutheran, but adopted a Reformed view of the Supper. He deals with topics such as: The words of institution, the text of 1 Corinthians 11, the communication of attributes from Christ's divinity to his humanity, and the nature of figurative language in Scripture. This work is essential reading for anyone interested in learning about, or defending the Lutheran view of Holy Communion.

Mit den Grundlagen und Methoden der Psychiatrie schlieBt die 2. Auflage der Psychiatrie der Gegenwart abo Vieles gabe es angesichts dieses SchluBpunktes zu bedenken, manches hat die vier Herausgeber im Laufe der Jahre beschiiftigt, hat ihnen AnlaB zu ausgiebigen Gesprachen gegeben. Autoren sagten zu und sagten ab, neue Perspektiven eroffneten sich und muBten entsprechend gewiirdigt werden. Dankbar gedenken wir der Vorganger, H.W. GRUHLE t, W. MAYER- GROSS t, R. JUNG, M. MULLER. Das Ziel blieb bis zuletzt dassel be: Die Psychiatrie der Gegenwart solI kein Handbuch im klassischen Sinn sein, solI keine liickenlose Darstellung des gesam- ten psychiatrischen Wissens bieten. Sie strebt auch nicht bibliographische Voll- standigkeit an. So spiegelt denn die Auswahl der Themen, ihre Gewichtung nach Seitenzahl vorwiegend das wider, was die vier Herausgeber fUr besonders wichtig und neu erachteten. Am Ende dieser 2. Auflage angelangt, konnte es verlockend sein, sich im Riickblick ein Urteil iiber die Fortschritte der Psychiatrie im Zeitraum von 15 J ahren' zu bilden. Dies auf beschranktem Platz darzustellen, wiirde jedoch den Rahmen eines Vorwortes sprengen. Und gerade hier wiirden sich wohl die unterschiedlichen Meinungen der Herausgeber offenbaren, wiirde der Kon- sensus, der sich in der Themen- und Autorenwahl herauskristallisiert hatte, kaum mehr moglich. So solI denn nur im Rahmen der Grundlagen und Methoden der Psychiatrie, deren erster Band hier vOrliegt und deren zweiter unmittelbar folgt, auf gewisse Unterschiede gegeniiber der 1. Auflage hingewiesen werden.
