Paperback. Condición: Fair. #1 New York Times Bestseller In Being Mortal, bestselling author Atul Gawande tackles the hardest challenge of his profession: how medicine can not only improve life but also the process of its endingMedicine has triumphed in modern times, transforming birth, injury, and infectious disease from harrowing to manageable. But in the inevitable condition of aging and death, the goals of medicine seem too frequently to run counter to the interest of the human spirit. Nursing homes, preoccupied with safety, pin patients into railed beds and wheelchairs. Hospitals isolate the dying, checking for vital signs long after the goals of cure have become moot. Doctors, committed to extending life, continue to carry out devastating procedures that in the end extend suffering. Gawande, a practicing surgeon, addresses his profession's ultimate limitation, arguing that quality of life is the desired goal for patients and families. Gawande offers examples of freer, more socially fulfilling models for assisting the infirm and dependent elderly, and he explores the varieties of hospice care to demonstrate that a person's last weeks or months may be rich and dignified. Full of eye-opening research and riveting storytelling, Being Mortal asserts that medicine can comfort and enhance our experience even to the end, providing not only a good life but also a good end.…

The convergence of these two, with data as the common denominator, holds immense promise and the opportunities are boundless.…

Paperback. Condición: Fair. On his passport he was Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi. The poet Rabindranath Tagore gave him the title 'Mahatma'- the great soul- but he was rather uncomfortable with that. Nelson Mandela calls him a 'sacred warrior' others describe him as the 'the saint of the spinning wheel' and we now declare him as our 'Father of the Nation'. A courageous freedom fighter a shrewd politician a passionate social reformer and a staunch nationalist Mahatma Gandhi was all this and much more. He was the most unusual leader this country has seen and one of the most influential personalities whose name is synonymous with India's independence. He was the one who touched the lives of millions whose ideals of satyagraha and ahimsa inspired great leaders of the world and who could make the entire country come to a halt by going on a fast. Through a vivid narrative author Subhadra Sen Gupta recreates the life and legacy of this phenomenal leader to portray the man beneath the simple handspun clothes who ate saltless vegetables and bitter neem chutney who greeted kings and paupers alike who walked 240 miles at the age of sixty to break the Salt Law and whose entire life was dedicated to truth and to peace. Even today as we read inspirational accounts of Gandhiji's life and talk of gandhigiri we know that his ideals are alive and relevant to today's generation.…
