【內容簡介】
麻醉學在醫學中的地位已遠遠超過了傳統意義上僅提供術中照護、個人或小組執業的收費模式。現在該學科的專業領域已涵蓋手術期，包括從術前評估和處理到術後重症照護和急性疼痛治療。疼痛醫學也從單純的「小商店」注射形式發展到擴充、涉及多學科的業務和臨終醫療。甚至是麻醉學的業務流程，從計費到規定責任人以及專門的合約書簽署，都變得愈來愈複雜。因此醫學生、住院醫師、研究醫生、其他麻醉學生以及那些資深醫師，都需要詳細、準確和有效的資訊，並希望這些資訊能涵蓋麻醉應用和經營中遇到的所有相關的問題。 Cathy Marcucci、Norman Cohen、David Metro和Jeffrey Kirsch醫生為所有學習麻醉的人和許多麻醉醫師呈現了一本佳作。其中為我們每天臨床工作中遇到的最重要和最常見的複雜問題提供了非常實際的處理意見。我還沒見過哪一本麻醉教科書能比這本書更實用，而且坦率地說，它的閱讀性也很強。本書並沒有打算設計成一本綜合性教科書。相反，它對本學科最重要的臨床問題用最簡短、易懂的方式提供了常識性建議。此外，讀者們會發現有關執業的選擇和管理也是非常實用的。這是一本非常好的書，裡面有很多實用的資訊，而不只是理論。本書閱讀起來相當輕鬆，因為每一章都很簡短，並且切中要點。本書適合麻醉護士、麻醉住院醫師、甚至專科醫師閱讀。

【內容簡介】
「新編輸血醫學」是作者承襲第一版之架構，彙整最新資訊與近期臨床及教學經驗重新編撰，實用且深具價值的教材。內容涵蓋血庫免疫血液學和抗原抗體反應、血庫基本測試原理和檢驗方法、血液成分的輸用和輸血的不良反應、輸血相關的免疫學調適與傳染性疾病、新生兒溶血性與自體免疫溶血性疾病，以及親子鑑定等。全書共有235個表及213張圖，有助於相關課題的瞭解，末章並提供了13個案例學習。是本醫技學系不可或缺的教課書，也可作為醫學生、醫師學習，以及醫檢師執業時輔助的工具書。
 本書在第二版中大致維持初版的架構，可分為五部份：
 第1至第8章主要為血庫免疫血液學，此部份也包括了重要的血型基因分生變化及台灣血庫界在血型系統的分生研究結果。第1章也可作為第22章親子鑑定參考之用。血型抗原與紅血球膜上功能性物質的關係這一章作者用了的心力去寫，有其可讀性。ABO、RH及MNS系統這些章介紹相當詳盡，其他系統則也能做到精要但不失完整的交代。作者特別推薦讀者能詳讀第5章MNS系統，Miltenberger抗原及相關抗體在台灣相當重要，熟讀這一章不僅對臨床作業有幫助，想要作深入相關研究的讀者幫助更大。
 第9至第12章討論抗原抗體反應與血庫基本測試原理和檢驗方法，包括抗體篩檢、鑑定、及交叉試驗方法等，初版時在這一部份的討論稍嫌不足，但在這一版中這一個缺點已經改正，讀者已能經由這幾章學習到血庫抗體鑑定的重要步驟。
 第13至15章討論捐血及血液成分的製備及貯存，捐血部份我也對台灣及美國捐血機構捐血的不同規定都有比較性的敘述。
 第14至21章則討論血液成分輸用和輸血相關不良反應、輸血相關的免疫學調適(Immunomodulation)及感染性疾病，以及新生兒溶血性疾病、自體免疫溶血和藥物相關的溶血性疾病等。在輸血相關的感染性疾病這一章中，作者更特別的介紹血液如何估算感染性疾病殘餘風險(Residual risk)的估算這一概念。對醫師在血庫學方面的學習這些章節是相當重要的。
 第22章至第25章則包括其他課題如親子鑑定、品管學、幹細胞移植與問題導向學習。由於在本書中作者未曾討論 HLA方面的問題，藉著親子鑑定這一方面的應用對HLA-DR基因半型稍予以介紹，稍補HLA敘述不足之憾。
 對於問題導向學習案例這一部分，在這一版我再增加三個案例學習。在輸血醫學各個重要領域中，現在都有例題，對讀者的學習應有很大助益。案例這一章，除了有問題導向的意義外，我也藉這一章，補充面課文中之不足。例如，在第3例順便討論紅血球多重凝集與凝集素(lectin)在血庫之應用。在第7例為新增抗體鑑定的案例，同時也整理出抗體鑑定的重要原則，可以補充第11章抗體鑑定之學習。第10例為新增輸血反應的探討問題，也再次強調在抗體鑑定時細胞組中具備同合子抗原的重要性。第12例也是新增，討論幹細胞移植STR追蹤嵌合體的相關問題，補充STR在臨床醫學上的應用。第13例親子鑑定的案例，更探討祖孫親子鑑定相關的問題 。

【內容簡介】
從神蹟、巫術到醫療的現在與未來！
 對於醫學生，這是一本研習醫學史時必讀的經典教科書，透過醫學先哲及歷史事件，能更了解醫學人文的精髓。
 對於一般讀者，這本兼具知識、人文與趣味的經典醫學史，透過作者的生輝妙筆，你將發現醫學原來並非如此遙不可及。
◎極具深度創意的比較醫學史
 本書論述的埃及木乃伊、希臘神話、中國陰陽五行的醫學哲學，原始醫療的神蹟療法和性的禁忌；把中國醫學的發展跨越到同時期的西方，比較羅馬帝國和大漢帝國因瘟疫覆亡的同質性；世界各地宗教興起對醫療的影響；以及醫學哲學不同的發展，在人體藝術所表達的身體語言等。
◎把醫學的著名典故，加入現代考證和人文思維

◎羅列詳盡的參考資料及延伸閱讀書單
 每篇文章最後，都列有二十份「參考資料」。本書共列出一百本「延伸閱讀」供讀者參考，它們都是和本書最有關且市面上找得到的書籍，對擴展知識與視野，有極大幫助。
◎探究醫學的現在與未來
 從文藝復興的醫學教育談起；人體解剖成為醫學革命，顯微鏡下看到了生命；生理、病理的快速進展使十九世紀臨床醫療百花齊放、群星耀眼；在西方醫學文明成形於二十世紀之後，也開始到世界各地插秧，台灣何其有幸也是其中的一粒種子；在綜論日本醫學和台灣醫學時，本書以持平但銳利的觀察談繼往開來的可能，超脫現實不同派別的主觀論史。至於對醫學的未來，有太多不一樣的想像空間，這也是本書最後要留給讀者的功課。

【作者序】
睡眠醫學檢驗是睡眠醫學中不可或缺的實務技術，而睡眠醫學檢驗中睡眠圖譜的判讀，關係到睡眠疾病的診療，至深且鉅。美國睡眠技師學會 (ASST) 2007年年會，當年6月於明尼蘇達州明尼阿波利市舉行，由於睡眠醫學科技的突飛猛進，此次年會發表許多新的重要資訊，例如實施將近30年歷史的睡眠期睡眠判讀，將成人睡眠期由四期改為三期；嬰兒兩個月以上，睡眠期由四期改為五期；呼吸障礙增加複合型呼吸暫止症。筆者有幸參加此次會議，獲益良多，希望能為臺灣的睡眠醫學檢驗提供更多的新資訊，加上個人的睡眠醫學檢驗實務心得，於是繼【睡眠圖譜】第一版問世多年之後，決定編寫第二版。
 睡眠醫學是以腦波為核心，由於有幸遇到幾位前輩學者專家，才促使筆者對睡眠腦波的研究產生興趣：例如1971年得到台大醫院神經科洪祖培教授與陳榮基教授的栽培；後來又得到曾經擔任台北市立療養院（今台北市立聯合醫院松德院區）神經科主任的徐崇堯醫師和已故前台大醫院精神醫學部李宇宙醫師的指導。早期腦波檢查是以每秒三公分做記錄，以10秒為一頁。1991年筆者與李宇宙醫師與徐崇堯醫師在台北市立療養院共同開展設立睡眠檢查室，當時李宇宙醫師剛自美接受完整的睡眠醫學訓練返國，說明睡眠腦波是以每秒一公分做記錄，並且以30秒為一頁。李醫師一語驚醒夢中人，使我頓悟睡眠醫學是一片天，而且天外有天，人外有人。李宇宙醫師於2007年英年早逝，筆者嘆惋之餘，特別在此提出上述共事的機緣，並表達對李醫師的感恩之忱。
 其後筆者陸續發現，睡眠檢驗得到的結果對臨床診斷有很大的幫助，甚至可能改變醫師原來的想法。阻塞型睡眠呼吸中止症可以導致磨牙；快速動眼期行為障礙症被以為只是單純的說夢話或夢靨；額葉癲癇發作可能與夜驚症或睡遊症混淆；失眠症導因於不寧腿症候群和週期性肢體抽動等等。後來筆者於中國時報醫療版陸續發表一些特殊睡眠實例的文章，集結出版《認識睡眠障礙》一書，榮獲衛生署國民健康局「優良健康讀物推介獎」。能讓更多的國人對於睡眠，尤其是睡眠障礙有更深的認識，是筆者頗感欣慰的事。
 本書的最後單元是筆者用心編寫的模擬試題，希望有助於讀者更進一步瞭解睡眠醫學檢驗相關的知識與技能，並有助讀者準備相關的考試與認證考試。

本書簡介

Bringing together for the first time sexual and industrial labour as the means to understand gender, work and class in modern Japan and Korea, this book shows that a key feature of the industrialisation of these countries was the associated development of a modern sex labour industry. Tying industrial and sexual labour together, the book opens up a range of key questions: In what economy do we place the labour of the former comfort women? Why have sex workers not been part of the labour movements of Korea and Japan? Why is it difficult to be working-class and feminine? What sort of labour hierarchies operate in hostess clubs? How do financial crises translate into gender crises? This book explores how sexuality is inscribed in working-class identities and traces the ways in which sexual and labour relations have shaped the cultures of contemporary Japan and Korea. It addresses important historical episodes such as the Japanese colonial industrialisation of Korea, wartime labour mobilisation, women engaged in forced sex work for the Japanese army throughout the Asian continent, and issues of ethnicity and sex in the contemporary workplace. The case studies provide specific examples of the way gender and work have operated across a variety of contexts, including Korean shipyard unions, Japanese hostess clubs, and the autobiographical literature of Korean factory girls. Overall, this book provides a compelling account of the entanglement of sexual and industrial labour throughout the twentieth century, and shows clearly how ideas about gender have contributed in fundamental ways to conceptions of class and worker identities.

本書簡介 by John C Burnham

So, what is a profession? The modern French word is general, referring to the civil status of having an occupation, such as being an artisan or even unemployed. The German Beruf carries the idea of the Latin “vocation”a calling to which one responds by professing. After finding no word in his language, a Japanese researcher declared that the term was parochial, only making sense in European history since late medieval times. Different then in time and place, the concept of the profession has evolved, and Burnham’s intriguing thesis is that it can be understood only through a historical, if not a historiographical, approach.

And fascinating it is, to study the writing of medical history with this question in mind. We can trace no less than the rise and fall of the medical profession.

From the 17th century onwards, medical historiography can be followed as it defines, redefines, and revises the idea of professionthe one influencing the other. Physicians have always had a habit of writing the history of medicine in an attempt to understand what medicine is. To begin with, “Great Doctors” dominated, as “Great Ideas” do so now. The first key concept of the profession is the idea of a body of knowledgespecial learning that represents the joint stock, the defining and proved possession of the professional. The discoveries of scientific medicine contributed to this, redefining the professional as one who had particular expertise as well as knowledge. Gradually, the sense of belonging to a group created a collective noun: the profession was a social entity. Group standards reinforced exclusivity, disqualifying outsidersthus institutions grew, and ethical and behavioural considerations developed.

In 1804 the professional was “distinguished for liberal knowledge, and honourable from the rank assigned in society.” By 1912, “professional” included an inquiring mind, hard work, tolerance of adversity, and not charging the poor. Learned, practical, disciplined, altruisticperhaps the Flexnerian definition of the professional holds good for many today.

But by the 1960s a wave of anti-establishment anger hit the professions, and expertise itselfthe original basis for professional authoritycame under attack from books such as The Tyranny of the Experts: How Professionals Are Closing the Open Society: “The failure of the professions has become increasingly apparent … the professions justify themselves as organised efforts to assure that society’s vital needs are met … [they] are unmet, and the organised professions seem perversely or arrogantly opposed to change.” Thus, Freidson asked the question Are Professions Necessary? (1984) and asserted that “societal trends, both technological and ideological, are rendering the concept of profession obsolete.”

Undoubtedly, professions evolve according to changing economic and social circumstances. Whether the professions have suffered (or should suffer) irretrievable decline is arguable, but definitely topical. What seems certain, however, is that the concept of professionalism continues to intrigue, remaining historical and local, ambiguous and even contradictorylike the writing of history itself.

本書簡介

The goal of the editors in this volume is to build on, and empirically flesh out, the feminist argument that law cannot be thought of as simply a determining force in the defining of ‘woman;’ it must be thought of as a site of struggle. The editors and contributors explore and analyze law as a ‘gendering practice,” assuming that law is a practice that interacts with other practices to produce meanings about gender.
