Whose Health Is It, Anyway?
Covid-19 has shown how vulnerable society, our economy, and day-to-day lives are to illness, but despite this we have not yet valued the pivotal role of good health. Our healthcare system is now an illness service with little resilience, importing illness rather than exporting health into communities, not leveraging the digital technology innovations harnessed in other industries. Whose Health Is It, Anyway? outlines why health is truly our most untapped opportunity for prosperity and happiness in the 21st century, individually and jointly as whole nations. Through collectively valuing health - civil society and the private sector - we can radically change the wider health environment which will pay off for all. This book outlines how a 21st century healthcare system should expand the founding principles of the NHS, from illness to a true health service, and encompass a National Care Service. The authors outline the entities and processes that could underpin a new total health system, one that could serve to take us into a happier and more prosperous future.

From Whispers to Shouts
It’s hard today to remember how recently cancer was a silent killer, a dreaded disease about which people rarely spoke in public. In hospitals and doctors’ offices, conversations about malignancy were hushed and hope was limited. In this deeply researched book, Elaine Schattner reveals a sea change—from before 1900 to the present day—in how ordinary people talk about cancer. From Whispers to Shouts examines public perception of cancer through stories in newspapers and magazines, social media, and popular culture. It probes the evolving relationship between journalists and medical specialists and illuminates the role of women and charities that distributed medical information. Schattn...

Krankenhausfinanzierung im Diskurs - Von ökonomisch basierten Modellen hin zum Krankenhaus als Lebensraum?
Wie soll das Krankenhaus der Zukunft gestaltet werden? Dass die bisherige produktionsorientierte Sichtweise eines Krankenhauses als verkapptes Industrieunternehmen und Fallkostenvergütung der Vorstellung eines Krankenhauses als Lebensraum nicht entsprechen kann, wird vom Autor im Rahmen dieses Buches genau herausgearbeitet. Seine Ideen und Vorschläge gipfeln in einem Konzept, die Idee von Krankenhäusern wieder an ihre grundsätzliche Funktion zu binden, kranken und beeinträchtigten Menschen einen Lebensraum zu bieten, in dem sie auf besondere Art und Weise versorgt, gepflegt und medizinisch-pflegerisch als Subjekt ihrer eigenen Lebens- und Krankheitsgeschichte aufgenommen werden. So ist es dem Autor zu verdanken, dass er seine Rekonstruktion der historischen Krankenhausentwicklung in konstruktive Vorschläge überführt, die Patientenbehandlung als gelingenden Interaktionsprozess zwischen den Mitarbeitern und den Patienten im Krankenhaus zu kultivieren. Seine Vorschläge sollten bei der Debatte über die Reform der stationären Krankenhausversorgung unbedingt diskutiert und für deren Modernisierung genutzt werden. Prof. Bernd H. Mühlbauer
