Emerging methods, as well as best practices in well-used methods, in pharmacy are of great benefit to researchers, graduate students, graduate programs, residents and fellows also in other health science areas. Researchers require a text to assist in the design of experiments to address seemingly age-old problems. New interventions are needed to improve medication adherence, patients' lived experiences in health care, provider-patient relationships, and even various facets of pharmacogenomics. Advances in systems re-engineering can optimize health care practitioners' roles. Contemporary Research Methods in Pharmacy and Health Services includes multi-authored chapters by renowned experts in their field. Chapters cover examples in pharmacy, health services and others transcendent of medical care, following a standardized format, including key research points; valid and invalid assumptions; pitfalls to avoid; applications; and further inquiry. This is a valuable resource for researchers both in academia and corporate R&D, primarily in pharmacy but also in health services, and other health disciplines. Social science researchers and government scientists can also benefit from the reading.

This book is an excellent review of health promotion in the context of the pharmacy practice. Since the publication of the first edition, major changes have taken place in the involvement of pharmacists in health promotion. Health promotion is now a core role for community (retail) pharmacist and health promotion is now taught as a core-subject in all schools of pharmacy. The misuse of drugs is now a greater problem than ever before and pharmacists need updating in this area. Pharmacists have the monopoly on sales of nicotine replacement therapy and are now the key group involved in opportunistic advice to those who want to stop smoking. The book aims to inform pharmacists about all major health issues such as the effects of smoking; nutrition; exercise; oral health; family planning; woman's' health; child health; travel health; alcohol and mental health. The authors show pharmacists what they can achieve in health promotion stressing the social and behavioural aspects. There are key chapters on the major health challenges facing the 21 Century, the social inequalities of health and health care, problems in achieving behavioural change, and the importance of good communication especially about risks.

This is not your average prayer book. Most prayer books focus on and deal with issues that are visible yet external to the person praying, like the leaves or fruit on a tree. The author believes that most of our prayers have the effect of shaking off the fruit or leaves only to have them grow again at a later date. This book's thrust is to eliminate the unseen roots or causes in order to permanently impact our Christian walk. It is dedicated to Bible based prayers that "remind God" of His promises to us as directed in Isaiah 43: 25-26. It is intended to be used as a guide for developing prayers and confessions that address the issues and circumstances that affect the reader's life. Please ignore what does not apply to your personal walk as you add what does with the Holy Spirit's guidance. Ask Him I also encourage you to base your prayers on what God has shown you about the issues and circumstances that currently confront you. Reading the scriptures provided along with those He has given to you personally before praying, will shrink your doubt and unbelief while it strengthens your faith.
