Under the Knife: A History of Surgery in 28 Remarkable Operations , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 581min
The history of surgery in 28 famous operations - from Louis XIV to JFK, and from Einstein to Houdini. In Under the Knife, surgeon Arnold Van de Laar uses his own experience and expertise to tell the witty history of the past, present and future of surgery. From the story of the desperate man from 17th-century Amsterdam who grimly cut a stone out of his own bladder to Bob Marley's deadly toe infection, Under the Knife offers all kinds of fascinating and unforgettable insights into medicine and history via the operating theatre. What happens during an operation? How does the human body respond to being attacked by a knife, a bacterium, a cancer cell or a bullet? And, as medical advances continuously push the boundaries of what medicine can cure, what are the limits of surgery? From the dark centuries of bloodletting and of amputations without anaesthetic to today's sterile, high-tech operating theatres, Under the Knife is both a rich cultural history and a modern anatomy class for us all. ungekürzt.

My Mother Warned Me About Blokes Like Me , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 442min
Whether you're into dirt bikes, road bikes, ride a Yamaha, scooter or Laverda, if you've ever experienced the primal rush of riding a motor bike, the pain of crashing, the suffering of healing and the epiphanies of speed, then this book is for you. My Mother Warned Me About Blokes Like Me is about friendship, treachery, girls in tight pants, and motorcycles that have been possessed by Satan. It’s about brotherhood, camaraderie, drugs, alcohol, and being hounded by the police for daring to combine them all at once. It’s about racing 1000 kilometres through the night for money and thrills. It’s about massive amputations, bovine stupidity, maniacal genius and the wisdom of the old. It’s about chance and fate and suffering, being two people at once and being handcuffed in a Melbourne gutter. It’s about being cold and crazy and hopeful and irredeemably lost. It’s about impossible highs and soul-crushing lows, about demons and brothers and dirt and danger, and houses with iron bars instead of glass in their windows. Essentially it’s about Boris Mihailovic’s life. With motorcycles. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Dave Ferguson.

Less Ketchup Than Salsa: Finding My Mojo in Travel Writing: More Ketchup, Book 3 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 307min
How do you go from pulling pints one day, to travelling the world, all-expenses paid the next? For this author it involved a huge dollop of ketchup, a little bit of growing up, and an extraordinary sequence of events that flings the author on a career path he’d never dreamed could happen. Throw in the patter of little feet, sharp teeth, amputations, and a smattering of characters from their Tenerife bar days, and you have another serving of ketchup - only this time, it’s a little more salsa. With the Smugglers Tavern still a nagging ghost of their past, Joe and Joy free themselves from limpet-like patrons, battle once more with Spain’s bungling bureaucracy, and dip a toe in numerous but short-lived careers to stop their bar money evaporating. Less Ketchup Than Salsa is a true story about growing up, finding your dreams in the most unexpected of places, and discovering what’s truly important in life. If you’ve ever pondered living abroad, are interested in travel writing as a career, wondered what life is all about, or just want a funny listen in the style of Bill Bryson or Carl Hiaasen...join Joe and Joy on this third and final memoir in the Ketchup trilogy. ungekürzt.

Global Orthopedics (eBook, PDF)
Now in a revised and expanded second edition, this unique text discusses the opportunities and challenges to the practice of orthopedic surgery in resource-limited environments around the world. Sensibly divided into thematic sections, part I examines barriers to care, from the poorly recognized global burden of orthopedic conditions and the less than ideal equipment to the cultural considerations and ethical dilemmas inherent in such situations. General clinical topics are covered in part II, such as non-surgical approaches and anesthesia, while the remaining sections discuss adult and pediatric trauma, presented in an anatomical format for easy reference with a focus on the natural history and the best treatment methods within existing limitations, followed by musculoskeletal infections, non-infectious pediatric conditions, reconstruction, and amputations. Topics new to this edition include the management of non-unions by induced membrane techniques, autologous bone grafting, bone growth and burn charts, the management of neck and back pain, and principles of orthopedic rehabilitation. Written and edited by experts with years of experience working in austere settings, this second edition of Global Orthopedics is a seamless transition from the original and expands the range of possible management strategies in places desperate for orthopedic care, making it a must for all surgeons and practitioners planning to work in such challenging settings.- Shop: buecher

The Type II Diabetes Cure: The Expert Guide to Reversing Your Diabetes and Living a Longer, Healthier Life , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 130min
Your trusted guide to reversing type 2 diabetes by treating the disease at its root cause and not just another plan to manage the blood sugar number with ever-increasing medications. By an experienced professor, scientist, surgeon, and medical director, this expert guide describes in easy-to-listen language the current science around the epidemic of type 2 diabetes and the new guidelines for treatment.These new guidelines, and the large international studies that support those guidelines, form the basis of the recommendation that individuals with type 2 diabetes should no longer accept “control” of blood sugar as a treatment goal, since this strategy is ineffective at preventing the major complications of diabetes, namely foot amputations, heart attacks, and kidney failure. Instead the studies, and the newest guidelines from the American Diabetes Association, the American Heart Association and other trusted societies, recommend a treatment plan that includes metabolic surgery and exercise, a strategy that results in a cure or a long-term complete remission of type 2 diabetes, in most people.Learn how this proven strategy, a 45-minute procedure requiring four small Band-aids and a renewed commitment to gentle exercise, cures type 2 diabetes in large, long-term studies. This audiobook dispels many myths about diabetes treatment that have for too long centered around a pharmaceuticals approach that has left millions of people inadequately managing a deadly disease process with expensive medications instead of curing it. ungekürzt.

The Naked Lady Who Stood on Her Head: A Psychiatrist's Stories of His Most Bizarre Cases , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 586min
True stories are more bizarre than any fiction, and Dr. Gary Small knows this best. After 30 distinguished years of psychiatry and groundbreaking research on the human brain, Dr. Small has seen it all - now he is ready to open his office doors for the first time and tell all about the most mysterious, intriguing, and bizarre patients of his career. The Naked Lady Who Stood on Her Head is a spellbinding record of the doctor's most bewildering cases, from naked headstands and hysterical blindness to fainting schoolgirls and self-amputations. It is an illuminating journey into the mind of a practicing psychiatrist and his life in medicine as it evolves over time - a behind-the-scenes look at the field and a variety of mental diseases as they've never been seen or diagnosed before. You'll find yourself exploring the puzzling eccentricities that make us human. Often funny, sometimes tragic, and always compelling, Dr. Small takes you on a tour of his career that moves from the halls of a crowded inner-city Boston emergency room to the multimillion-dollar ski lodges of the nation's elite. In between, Dr. Small introduces a strange cast of true-life characters and conditions, while dealing with mysterious hysterical blindness, a man convinced that his penis is shrinking, secret double lives, and frighteningly psychotic romantic desires. His career and personal life come full circle when his own mentor becomes his patient, making Small realize that no one is beyond mental exploration - not even himself. ungekürzt. Language: English.

Hope for the Caregiver: Encouraging Words to Strengthen Your Spirit , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 171min
How do you help someone...who helps someone? You put 30 years of experience into their hands! Drawing upon an astonishing three decades as a caregiver for his wife, author/radio host Peter Rosenberger brings his wealth of experience to today's massive caregiver population. Weaving poignant insights, deep faith, proven practical help, and his outrageous humor, Peter takes caregivers on an amazing journey towards a healthier lifestyle...regardless of the circumstances they face. As a caregiver through a medical nightmare that includes 78 surgeries, 80+ physicians, 12 hospitals, multiple amputations, and $10+ million in medical bills, Peter understands the challenges of a caregiver in ways that few do. He is on a mission to strengthen and equip fellow caregivers to stay emotionally, physically, and fiscally healthy...as they care for a vulnerable loved one. Recording this book was a labor of love that Peter did for his friend, Vernon, who cared for his wife through dementia and cancer. Vernon's eyes made it difficult for me to read as he spent long hours in the hospital at her side, so Peter recorded the book for him. With special bonus features of Peter's music, and songs performed by his wife, Gracie, this audiobook will inspire, comfort, strengthen every caregiver. Even as they have tears on their face, Peter's contagious humor will have them busting out in laughter. Peter understands the heart of a caregiver. He also know that healthy caregivers make better caregivers! As caregivers listen to this audiobook, they will soon find themselves in the company of a trusted friend who understands their pain, heartache, rage, frustration, and loneliness. They will finish the book stronger, wiser, calmer, and even...more joyful. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Peter Rosenberger.
