Struck Down by the Gods
This book describes the different types of strokes; their cause, and the medical conditions often confused with stroke. Although primarily intended for the non-medical person who wants to know how to prevent stroke (and heart attacks), there is much that would be of benefit to all health care professionals. Atherosclerosis, the cause of virtually all heart attacks and a major cause of stroke, is the progressive accumulation throughout life of cholesterol beneath the inner lining of the hardened walls of our arteries. The book challenges the long-held belief that smoking, obesity, high cholesterol, diabetes, and high blood pressure are the cause of atherosclerosis. Although they make it worse, they cannot be the cause, simply because atherosclerosis occurs in the absence of these risk factors and, based on irrefutable autopsy evidence, commences decades before these risk factors appear, in some of us before we are born. Many other reasons for challenging these beliefs are revealed. The book contains interesting historical facts on the evolution of knowledge throughout the centuries since ancient times, explains the difference between absolute and relative risk and benefit, and the real cause of atherosclerosis (hardening of arteries). It explains what we as individuals can do to prevent stroke (and heart attack). It discusses the risk factors that identify those of us who are at increased risk of suffering a stroke (and heart attack), in particular smoking and obesity (and the obesogenic environment we live in), that greatly increase the risk. It makes a plea to the regulatory authorities to alter the way industry-funded research is conducted to provide greater certainty, in particular appointing independent data and safety monitoring committees and not allowing the industry to claim confidentiality over the study data. Finally, it makes a plea to publishers to have a clear statement on the front page stating that this study is/is not funded by industry, to ensure that all papers discuss relative (the benefit to society) and absolute (the benefit to us as an individual) risk increase and reduction, the numbers needed to treat and an economic analysis of the cost benefit. A controversial recommendation is that when a known treatment exists, any new treatment to be compared to that treatment and not to a placebo. The reasons behind these pleas are discussed in the book

It Doesn't Have to Hurt
Transform your everyday life by reducing and eliminating chronic pain with the latest science-backed pain relief techniques and expert practical advice from America's bestselling doctor and neurosurgeon Sanjay Gupta. Are you one of the 52 million people who experience chronic pain in your day-to-day life? In It Doesn't Have to Hurt, Sanjay Gupta makes the empowering argument that there are effective options for relief that you can start practicing today to greatly reduce your chances of suffering pain tomorrow. The significance of reducing and even eliminating pain cannot be overstated. Gupta shows how pain carries an enormous amount of physical, social, and emotional baggage, which is, in part, why it has been so hard to treat, and too often ignored. It can also present in infinite ways. Yet both patients and practitioners labor under the mistaken idea that most pain problems can be fixed with a drug or procedure. It turns out we have tremendous agency in choosing how we'll respond. The brain "creates" pain, but it also has the capacity to reduce or even eliminate it. There is more evidence than ever about the benefits of sleep, diet and nutrition, mindfulness-based pain management (MBPM), myofascial and other hands-on treatments, as well as yoga, specialized psychotherapies, and even social "prescriptions"--prompting more doctors than ever to focus on these solutions. Gupta runs the gamut of conventional and complementary approaches, including the technique known as Mobilization Exercise Analgesia Treatment, foam rolling, acupuncture, trigger point injections, and vital "prehabilitation" before any operation. He shares how to make sense of all those over-the-counter pills, patches, and pain products, as well as drugs advertised on television or prescribed by your doctors. He covers psychedelics, supplements, and CBD. And he highlights insights from some of the nation's leading pain scientists and specialists, plus stories of challenge and triumph over pain by those with lived experience. Gupta sorts through them all with his pain-smart guide to a pain-smart life. With expert guidance and a wealth of science-backed strategies, It Doesn't Have to Hurt is your ultimate resource for reclaiming your life from chronic pain and unlocking a future of lasting relief--starting today.

The 3 Most Hot Illnesses of Today
Since the global onset of the COVID-19 pandemic in early 2020, many illnesses have exploded in societies, leading to a plethora of common healthcare issues across the world. In Pressing Health Issues of the Modern Society, three common illnesses that have been on the rise and have taken the world by storm are elaborated on: monkeypox, COVID-19, and epilepsy. Each of the three can lead to diverse sets of healthcare issues such as vaccine hesitancy, mental health, and the need to scale up public health programmes to name a few. For example, monkeypox is a seemingly new player that has emerged after COVID-19, with little known about the management of infected patients. COVID-19 is a case which demanded immediate intergovernmental attention to design vaccines to be delivered in multiple doses to combat wave after wave. Epilepsy, a common but publicly-underrated condition, may reflect a history of mental illness that yet remains poorly understood. Governments have been encouraged by such illnesses to fortify the healthcare systems and continue research to take these challenges head-on.

Preemie Voices
The birth of a very premature baby is a shock for parents. The immediate anxiety about whether their infant will survive quickly leads to concerns about their child's future quality of life. In this inspiring and informative book, young people who were born weighing less than two pounds, three ounces provide candid and personal stories about their lives, challenges and accomplishments. Now in their thirties, these men and women were cared for at McMaster University Hospital in Hamilton, Ontario, soon after the introduction of newborn intensive care. Dr. Saroj Saigal, a renowned and award-winning neonatologist at McMaster, adds several chapters that outline the history of neonatology, describes recent medical and technological innovations, and explains how many extremely premature babies go on to enjoy fulfilling lives. Her chapters give the answer of a caring specialist to the inevitable question, "What next?" Written for a lay audience, Preemie Voices will move you to tears of admiration and amazement at the remarkable resilience of these tiny survivors. This unique collection of stories will not only provide encouragement and hope for parents who have given birth to a tiny preemie, but will inspire others who will be in awe at the achievements of these infants - both with and without disabilities - who were born too early.
