James E. Allen
Springer Publishing Company, 2007
A core book, with a'lot of problems.............
I'm a few short weeks away from taking the NAB exam to become a licensed nursing facility administrator. This book was the core text for the 5 courses required for licensure (at least it was where I attended, anyway.....to be more specific, it was the only textbook required for all 5 courses) - - a little disturbing when you think about it.
The book is so ripe with typos, it gets to be ...

Oermann and Gaberson have written a comprehensive practical guide to the subject that is grounded in a nursing-relevant philosophical and ethical understanding of the legitimate teaching and warranting process of ...

Brain Disabling Treatments in Psychiatry: Drugs, Electroshock, and the Psychopharmaceutical Complex1 review
Peter R. Breggin
Springer Publishing Company, 2007
Stretch your mind: read this book
Counterintuitive in an age when the "chemical imbalance" mythology of emotional problems is commonly accepted as fact, this updated work by Breggin demonstrates that psychiatrists have sold the public a bill of goods. People taking or sanctioning the taking of psychiatric drugs do not realize that much of the perceived good from these agents derives from the emotional blunting that they cause in ...
