Care of the Difficult Patient
Author: Peter J Manos
A stay in hospital is a traumatic experience for most patients; however, some patients may be more difficult than others to care for, because of mental distress and ill health, historic substance abuse, demanding family members or abusive behavior, for example. "Difficult" patients place extra demands on nurses professionally and personally. Developing the skills required to deal with difficult patients is therefore vital to the smooth running of any hospital ward.

Practical Ayurveda: Secrets for Physical, Sexual and Spiritual Health
Author: Atreya
Practical Ayurveda shows how Ayurveda, the traditional natural healing system of India, can correct ordinary ailments with changes in diet and exercise. Atreya writes with humor and compassion, and uses everyday language to explain why Ayurveda (with an emphasis on Prana) is the best overall method to promote health and long life. He clarifies the spiritual principles behind Ayurveda, and provides a broader and more flexible perspective on this ancient healing system than is usually given. He discusses the advantages of using a constitutional system of medicine whereby you are diagnosed and treated as an individual instead of being considered just an ailing patient. A constitutional test is included for determining your own ayurvedic humors. Atreya also gives a straightforward approach to the health benefits of good sexual relationships. Some ayurvedic teachers promote abstinence; however, Atreya shows that our mental attitude towards sex is more important than abstinence. He presents important insights for both women and men, so that we can, regardless of our sexual orientation, maintain a healthy balance. This is an excellent reference guide that includes special diets and cures for dozens of ailments.
