Cleveland Guardians A-Z - Roger Gordon - Bog - Rowman & Littlefield - Plusbog.dk

Cleveland Guardians A-Z - Roger Gordon - Bog - Rowman & Littlefield - Plusbog.dk

A must-have book for any Guardians fan, Cleveland Guardians A-Z is compiled alphabetically for easy accessibility. The book offers a complete history of the franchise going back to when it was known as the Indians for many years, then way back when they were known as the Naps, Napoleons, and Blues and even as far back as its very first season in 1901 when it didn’t even have a nickname. The Cleveland baseball team, as it was known in its first season, experienced many ups and downs until it won the World Series in 1920. The team won the World Series again in 1948. They followed that up with five very good seasons before finishing 111–43 and reaching, but getting upset by the New York Giants, in the 1954 World Series. The team then fell into a dismal abyss until the mid-1990s when they moved from decrepit Cleveland Stadium into brand-new Jacobs Field (now Progressive Field). Six postseason appearances and two trips to the World Series brought baseball excitement back to Cleveland in the form of 455 straight regular-season home sellout crowds. Terry Francona came aboard as manager in 2013 and led the team to six playoff appearances including a World Series berth in 2016. Cleveland Guardians A-Z brings you the history of the team and will delight those with a penchant for sports trivia with its array of facts and heightened attention to detail. From Fred Abbott to George Zuverink, this book has all the information Guardians fans would ever want to know about their team.

The Slippery Slope of Healthcare - Steven Z. Kussin - Bog - Rowman & Littlefield - Plusbog.dk

The Slippery Slope of Healthcare - Steven Z. Kussin - Bog - Rowman & Littlefield - Plusbog.dk

A slippery slope is an illustrative scenario in which events progress from an initially innocent step to a cascade of subsequent misfortunes. Each development that sequentially follows is increasingly inevitable, difficult to stop and more harmful than the last. The result is an unpredictable catastrophe. It warns participants of the possibility of unintended consequences from a seemingly innocent or valid opening action.Most of the time a slippery slope argument is criticized as a logical fallacy, e.g., if we allow our children to choose the movie this time they will, consequently, expect to be able to select the school they go to or the doctors they visit. Other times it is said to augur a political, legal, tactical threat, e.g., the U.S. government in the 1960s posited that if one country in a region became communist, the others would inevitably follow, and then all would fall into the sphere of the Soviet Union. These exercises are dismissed as being excessively fantastical stretches or falsely deterministic.The popular and medical literature, however, make no reference to medicine''s Slippery Slope. There are no popular titles that mention it or the Shared Decision Movement, the main bulwark against medical misadventures.Every hour, thousands slip from a comfortable and healthy status to an arm-flailing, knee-buckling, body-spiraling, face-to-the-floor catastrophe. The book addresses this quick but preventable spiraling of good health into medical disaster. My goal is to inform the readership about The Slope and to provide the tools to avoid it or to successfully slalom their way down it.

Doctor, Your Patient Will See You Now - Steven Z. Kussin - Bog - Rowman & Littlefield - Plusbog.dk

Doctor, Your Patient Will See You Now - Steven Z. Kussin - Bog - Rowman & Littlefield - Plusbog.dk

The state of health care in this country is routinely discussed in the media, at the office, and around the kitchen table. Yet as consumers of medical care, Americans often blindly accept medical advice that may or may not be relevant or even appropriate. Doctor, Your Patient Will See You Now is meant to turn on its head the old notion that medical care is dictated by the doctors who offer advice. Today, it''s all about the patients who receive it. Bias, financial incentives, and preventable medical error are common to the point of inevitability and have proven resistant to reform. Patients increasingly and correctly feel that they are on their own in a large, bewildering, impersonal, and dangerous medical system. Offering an insider''s perspective, Dr. Kussin provides the tools readers need to make informed decisions about their care, as well as the confidence to question their doctor''s advice, seek out additional information, and discern the best path for their care. With this book, readers learn how to maintain a professional approach that, rather than straining the doctor-patient relationship, makes it stronger and more cooperative.

The Entitled Generation - Iii Zarra - Bog - Rowman & Littlefield - Plusbog.dk

The Entitled Generation: Helping Teachers Teach and Reach the Minds and Hearts of Generation Z brings teachers into the twenty-first century world of 24-7 technologically-wired up and social media-driven students. This book asks teachers to consider pragmatic and sensible ways to teach Gen Z and to understand the differences between today’s students and those of the past. Teachers are offered keen insights by colleagues, in terms of how Gen Z thinks, the various ways that males and females learn, and the distractions and struggles each faces by device addiction affecting today’s classrooms. American culture is perpetuating the notion that today’s students are entitled to economic and social outcomes on equal bases. Gen Z “feels” everyone should be treated as equals, receiving the same rewards for unequal efforts, thus promoting a feeling of entitlement. Teachers will understand the reality of today''s American classrooms. Even with the assumed addiction to smart technology and social media, teachers can use this to their advantage and reach the minds and hearts of Gen Z to prepare them for their futures.
