Scapegoats: Transferring Blame
by Tom DouglasScapegoats are a universal phenomenon, appearing in all societies at all times in groups large and small, in public and private organizations. Hardly a week passes without some media reference to someone or something being made a scapegoat. Tom Douglas examines the process of scapegoating from the perspectives of victims and perpetrators, tracing its development from earliest times as rite of atonement to the modern forms of the avoidance of blame and the victimisation of innocents. The differences and similarities between the ancient and modern forms are examined to reveal that despite the modern logical explanations of behaviour, the mystical element in the form of superstition is still evident. Directly responding to the Diploma in Social Work's call for texts on anti-discriminatory practice Scapegoats should become essential reading for all social workers in training and practice. Will also be a invaluable resource for all professionals engaging in groupwork and group workers in training.

Scars to Pearls: A Medical Healing and Spiritual Journey Through the Phases of Malignant Melanoma Stage IIIA Skin Cancer with Micro-Metastasis.
by Lita M. WorthingtonSo when facing a life threatening trial, how do you refuel the transformation needed to replenish the balance in life itself? What do you lean on, trust on, or hope on? I am a recently retired OB-GYN-Infertility nurse practitioner of almost thirty years in the field, and I experienced delivering a spectrum of diagnoses in my area of expertise. There were the ‘good news’ moments with joy, success, and cure. But there will be moments we witness overwhelming pain and the devastating news of death. The shoe is on the other foot now for me. I am the patient with metastatic melanoma skin cancer and not the provider, a very uncomfortable and humbling place for me. <P><P> Sometimes the biggest battle fought isn’t the cancer, but the emotional battle we suddenly find ourselves in. We are not prepared for this emotional turmoil or how to deal with it. The journey I experienced and now share with you had its difficulties, filled with approximately fifty appointments, two surgeries, hospitalization and therapies, but life continues. If you have recently been diagnosed with cancer, I know you are scared; I certainly was. Because in the beginning when you first hear the news, you immediately wonder: ‘How is this all going to end?’ The journey has only just begun and we are already wondering: ‘How it’s all going to play out?’ I know all the questions you are asking yourself, for I am the patient now and my perspective has changed. I can feel the uncertainty of your courage and strength to proceed through the demands of appointments, diagnostic testing, surgeries, pain, and treatments. I know the tears you will wipe quietly away from your cheek in the middle of the night when you can’t sleep or when you are simply all alone, afraid, in pain, or discouraged. I can feel your heart pounding so loud that certainly anyone standing next to you must hear it also. Your mind is spinning with worry from all the ‘what ifs.’ What will help me ‘succeed’ at alleviating the fear that is ever present and now sprinkled into my daily life?As a lifelong believer in Christ, a foundation of faith was laid long ago. I was just a believer, as some years were more inclusive of Christ Jesus than others. But I never doubted there was a God. I would learn how to respect, love and nurture this new found relationship in the months ahead. I chose to lean on, trust on, and hope on my faith and I began introducing a spiritual element into my new daily routine. In the months of pain and challenges, reaching for spiritual encouragement and journaling as the days, weeks, and months would pass, I found myself in a relationship with my Creator. <P>He sat with me, walked with me and became my companion when I was alone and tired. Experiencing the joy with this new relationship was a gift to me, from God. But, of course, the medical provider in me led me to bring an educational element to my book. It is not the number one cancer killer, but it is the universally number one diagnosed cancer. I had recognized the lack of awareness amongst my friends and family, in regards to skin cancers and the serious threat they pose. So I include many Medical Pearls, which may be facts, or a helpful hint to pay additional attention to. For those who want to read about an amazing spiritual journey I include several Holy Spirit Moments which could be visions or occurrences in which only God could provide and explain. And, I share Spiritual Pearls which are my spiritual thoughts on scripture, visions or dreams that occurred both past and present, as it contributes to who I am. In my most vulnerable moments, my trust needed to lie somewhere other than myself. I am very good at taking care of myself, thank you very much. Suddenly my life takes a turn, and I better get ready for the unchartered course it will take. One day at a time. We all have a story within us. This shall be my story.

Scars: A Practical Guide for Scar Therapy
by Lars-Peter Kamolz Sebastian P. Nischwitz Ludwik K. BranskiThis unique medical guide focuses on scars.

This strongly practice-oriented book provides step-by-step instructions with scales and measuring instruments for assessing scars. Featuring brief abstracts and summaries, this valuable reference resource benefits clinical professionals such as doctors and nurses alike. It will appeal to practitioners who want to understand the nature and background of planned treatments, and to non-experts who simply want to broaden their medical horizons.

Scenario Test handleiding: Verbale en non-verbale communicatie bij afasie
by I. van der Meulen J. van Gelder-Houthuizen J. Wiegers S. Wielaert M. Sandt-KoendermanMeet: verbale en non–verbale communicatie vaardigheden van afasiepatienten.Leeftijdsbereik: volwassen afasiepatienten.Afname en scoringsduur: 30–40 minutenToepasbaar in: o.a. revalidatiecentra, verpleeghuizen, logopedische praktijkKwalificatieniveau: 1 (o.a. logopedisten en klinisch linguisten).Doel van de testDe Scenario Test meet de communicatieve vaardigheden van afasiepatienten in alle beschikbare communicatiekanalen. De test richt zich dus niet alleen op de mogelijkheid tot informatieoverdracht via het spreken, maar onderzoekt ook de mogelijkheden tot informatieoverdracht via alternatieve communicatiekanalen. Hieronder vallen de non–verbale communicatiekanalen (bijvoorbeeld mimiek, gebaren of tekenen), schrijven of schriftelijke ondersteuning en het gebruik van communicatiehulpmiddelen (bijvoorbeeld het Gespreksboek of een elektronisch communicatieapparaat).De Scenario Test is in eerste instantie bedoeld voor afname bij mensen met een matige tot ernstige afasie, bij wie de therapie gericht is op het inschakelen van alternatieve communicatiekanalen. Voor het succes van dergelijke therapie is het van belang om inzicht te hebben in de vraag of iemand in staat is tot het gebruik van alternatieve communicatie.Therapie gericht op alternatieve communicatie wordt vooral gegeven aan afasiepatienten bij wie het spreken niet of nauwelijks meer mogelijk is, zoals bij mensen met een globale of Broca afasie. De Scenario Test kan echter ook informatief zijn bij mensen met een lichtere afasie om na te gaan of zij hun verbale communicatie ondersteunen met alternatieve strategieen. Bij Wernicke patienten met spraakdwang en een slecht ziekte–inzicht is de test vaak niet afneembaar. Bijzonder aan de Scenario Test is dat er interactie is tussen de afasiepatient en de testleider.Communicatie is immers interactief en succesvolle communicatie bij personen die niet of nauwelijks meer kunnen spreken is sterk afhankelijk van de houding van de communicatiepartner. In de Scenario Test is de rol van de communicatiepartner daarom structureel opgenomen. Met de Scenario Test wordt systematisch nagegaan of iemand een bepaalde vorm van (alternatieve) communicatie beheerst, en of hij hier zelfstandig gebruik van maakt, of met hulp van een communicatiepartner. De Scenario Test biedt zo aanknopingspunten voor therapie gericht op het inzetten van alternatieve communicatieve kanalen en stelt daarnaast het effect van dergelijke therapie vast.ToepassingDiagnostiek: meet de verbale– en alternatieve communicatieve vaardigheden van afasiepatienten en de mate waarin patienten hiervoor afhankelijk zijn van hun communicatiepartner.Therapiekeuze: bepaalt welke vorm van alternatieve communicatietherapie voor een patient het meest geschikt is.Evaluatie: meet het effect van de gegeven therapie.Advisering: voor het opstellen van communicatieadviezen voor de omgeving van de patient.Materiaal Scenario Test complete set (handleiding, testmateriaal, scoreformulieren)Scenario Test scoreformulierenScenario Test handleiding

Scentwork for Horses
by Rachaël DraaismaScentwork for Horses is the first practical guide on how to implement scentwork into the lives of domesticated horses, enhancing behaviour, welfare, and the human-animal bond. Scentwork is a new discipline in the field for horse and handler, and expert author Rachaël Draaisma arms the reader with a pallet of information to enable them to put this technique into action. As well as theoretical background information on the nose of the horse and biomechanics, Draaisma discusses how scentwork improves horses’ learning abilities, development, socialisation, and their bond with the handler. Readers will learn how to have their horses explore their environment, participate in scentwork games and follow a footstep track to find a missing person or food bag. Easily accessible for anybody working with horses at any level, scentwork can be done in small areas as well as in larger spaces on various surfaces. Whether veterinarian, behaviourist, trainer, animal-assisted therapist, equine physiotherapist, osteopath, or interested horse owner, this book promises to bring both you and the horse enormous benefits, strengthening the human-animal bond. Rachaël Draaisma has always lived with and had a passion for dogs and horses. In 2002, she decided to make it her profession. Achieving several diplomas, she started to work full time as a trainer and behavioural consultant, first with dogs, later with horses. Her best-selling book Language Signs and Calming Signals of Horses, published by CRC Press in 2017, has been translated into several languages. Another pillar of Draaisma’s working life with horses revolves around equine mental stimulation and scentwork, and she has developed an extensive method to undertake scent tracking with horses, a new tool in enriching the human-equine relationship. Draaisma travels throughout Europe and the globe to provide workshops and lectures on calming signals of horses, equine mental stimulation, and scentwork. You can purchase scent bags to aid your scentwork practice at the author's personal website: www.scentworkforhorses.com or www.calmingsignalsofhorses.com

Scheme for Diagnosis and Treatment of 2019 Novel Coronavirus Pneumonia: The 7th Trial Edition
by National HealthCommissionofthePeople'sRepublicofChinaAn epidemic of a novel coronavirus emerged from Wuhan, China, in late December 2019 and has since spread to other parts of China and several foreign countries. The 2019 novel coronavirus (2019-nCoV)pneumonia, which is believed to be an acute respiratory infectious disease, has been included among the Class B infectious diseases stipulated in the Law of the People’s Republic of China on the Prevention and Control of Infectious Diseases, and measures for prevention and control of Class A infectious diseases have been adopted for this disease. Thanks to the implementation of a series of countermeasures including prevention, control and medical treatments, the outbreak of the epidemic in China has been curbed to a certain extent and the situation in most of the provinces has been alleviated; nevertheless, the number of newly confirmed cases in foreign countries are on the rise. Based on the increased awareness of the clinical manifestations and pathological features of this disease and the accumulated experience in diagnosis and treatment, the Scheme for Diagnosis and Treatment of 2019 Novel Coronavirus Pneumonia(The 6th Trial Edition) was revised and the 7th edition was developed, with the aims to provide clinical guidance for the diagnosis and treatment of the disease, improve the cure rate, reduce the mortality, minimize nosocomial infections, as well as raise awareness on the potential transmission and spreading of the virus caused by the imported cases.
