Expertly designed to educate patients under evaluation for a pacemaker, the guide also features a comprehensive section on complications that is extremely valuable for a primary care provider's knowledge base. By thoroughly summarizing the most important issues that patients and their families encounter during the pacemaker implantation process, this wonderful book is an invaluable priceless educational guide designed specifically with the most important audience in mind...the patients.

Possessing extensive knowledge and a unique background in both engineering and cardiology, Williams has earned numerous accolades within the academic and clinical settings, including awards from both the American College of Cardiology Foundation and the National Institutes of Health. Dr. Williams directs the only community-hospital based Heart Rhythm Center in the U.S. to publish outcomes for pacemaker and defibrillator implantations. "Numerous books have been published about pacemakers since they were introduced in the 1950's but they've all been addressed to the same audience: health care professionals. This book by Williams, which is directed to patients and their families, answers in a clear and concise way all questions surrounding pacemaker implantations: the before, the during, and the after. A must read for anyone who's been prescribed pacemaker therapy..." - Samir Saba, MD, FACC, FHRS, Director, Cardiac Electrophysiology, Associate Professor of Medicine, Associate Professor in Clinical and Translational Science, University of Pittsburgh Medical Center.

Katrina Mitcheson, "Visual Art and Self-Construction "
English | ISBN: 074869367X | 2021 | 176 pages | PDF | 5 MB
Starting from Nietzsche, Freud and Foucault's criticisms of a simple, given self, Katrina Mitcheson addresses the problem of how a complex self is constructed, and how a hermeneutics of the self can avoid reproducing a subjugated self. Critically examining Ricoeur's narrative account of self-construction, Mitcheson makes the case that the narrative model overlooks the variety of processes that can contribute to forming a self and neglects the materiality of these processes. She develops an alternative account of a plural and corporeal hermeneutics of the self: exploring how visual art can operate as a critical technology of the self. Art not only exposes practices that contribute to our subjugation, but can also discover, explore and affect bodily processes, enabling experimentation in self-construction.
