Summary of Chris Case, Dr. John Mandrola & Lennard Zinn's The Haywire Heart
Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 The heart is a two-pump organ that pumps blood to the lungs and body. The four chambers of the heart contract in a precisely timed choreography to keep the body supplied with oxygen. The two smaller chambers, called atria, push blood down to the two larger chambers, called ventricles. #2 Blood pressure is the pressure that the blood puts on the walls of the blood vessels. It is measured in millimeters of mercury, and it depends on the force of the squeeze, the diameter and tension of the blood vessel walls, and the timing of the aortic valve closure. #3 The heart is a muscle that conducts electricity f...

False Positive
The New England Journal of Medicine is one of the most important general medical journals in the world. Doctors rely on the conclusions it publishes, and most do not have the time to look beyond abstracts to examine methodology or question assumptions. Many of its pronouncements are conveyed by the media to a mass audience, which is likely to take them as authoritative. But is this trust entirely warranted? Theodore Dalrymple, a doctor retired from practice, turned a critical eye upon a full year of the Journal, alert to dubious premises and to what is left unsaid. In False Positive, he demonstrates that many of the papers it publishes reach conclusions that are not only flawed, but obviousl...

Essays in Good Practice: Lecture notes in contemporary General Practice - Second Edition
This is a text book for all doctors but especially GPs, appraisers and registrars. It is written by a 40 year plus front line NHS doctor who for most of his career worked twice to three times the current doctors’ Working Time Directive limited week. Chris Heath has been a Paediatric Lecturer in a teaching hospital, an Anaesthetist, various junior specialists and a GP over 30 years in 3 different practices. He has been a GP Trainer and Appraiser and has seen politics and political correctness harm patients’ interests constantly over the last half of his career. From the way it selects young doctors to the way they are educated and assessed, the best interests of the patient are largely ignored. This is a text book but it also contains home truths, insights and a warts and all appraisal of how to be a good doctor as well as an unbiased assessment of what is wrong with today’s NHS. It also explains why today’s politicians, medical schools and doctors will resist the changes that are needed to put the patients’ needs first again.
Global Deception and the Issue of Freedom
A Book about Current Events in Light of Apocalyptic Trumpets Trumpets were signaling devices in ancient Israel, and a metaphorical and amazing message is hidden in them for the modern human being. The relationship between freedom and responsibility is a very current topic. Who has the authority to define the limits of freedom and responsibility? Which entity has the authority to decide who has the right to access freedoms? The forces of evil, including the Antichrist, aim to take the hold of this authority by deception. The great controversy between light and darkness concentrates on these issues, and it is a battle for our mindset and attitudes. Jesus Christ will have victory in the end. Ho...
