Healing the Rift A Physician's Insight into Medical Negligence
Author: Yogesh Gupta
Publisher: Ukiyoto Publishing
ISBN: 9360495034
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 292
Book Description
In his highly anticipated third book, “ Healing the Rift A Physician’s Insight into Medical Negligence – Past, Present, and Paths to Progress,” esteemed author and Senior Consulting Physician, Dr. Yogesh Gupta, goes beyond the surface to explore the historical roots of contemporary healthcare challenges in India. Delving deep into the origins of problems imported from the USA, which were later adopted by India, Dr. Gupta presents a meticulous analysis of the factors that have strained the patient-doctor relationship. Having previously shared his insights in “”COVID Diaries: Virus vs We”” and “”We Learn as We Grow,”” Dr. Gupta brings a wealth of wisdom to his latest work. Here, he not only examines the historical backdrop of medical negligence but also shines a critical light on the shortcomings of the present legal system in adjudicating the intricate nuances of medical practice. In a bold departure from conventional thinking, Dr. Yogesh Gupta argues that the current punitive model and the lengthy, tedious legal processes fail to deliver justice to either the patient or the doctor. Firm in his belief that justice should be swift, fair, and restorative, Dr. Gupta proposes a new vision for addressing the complexities of medical negligence in India. His book is a manifesto for change, advocating for a system that prioritizes trust, ethics, and efficiency. “”Healing the Rift”” is not just a critique; it is a call to action. Dr. Gupta’s compelling narrative, enriched by historical insights and profound reflections, challenges the status quo and presents a roadmap for a healthcare system that serves both patients and doctors equitably. This book is essential reading for anyone seeking a transformative perspective on the future of healthcare in India.

Global Insights into Public Service Interpreting
Author: Riccardo Moratto
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1000469603
Category : Language Arts & Disciplines
Languages : en
Pages : 227
Book Description
This edited volume sets out to explore interdisciplinarity issues and strategies in Public Service Interpreting (PSI), focusing on theoretical issues, global practices, and education and training. Unlike other types of interpreting, PSI touches on the most private spheres of human life, making it all the more imperative for the service to move towards professionalization and for ad hoc training methods to be developed within higher institutions of education. PSI is a fast-developing area which will assume an increasingly important role in the spectrum of the language professions in the future. An international, dynamic and interdisciplinary exploration of matters related to PSI in various cultural contexts and different language combinations will provide valuable insights for anyone who wishes to have a better understanding when working as communities of practice. For this purpose, the Editors have collected contributions focusing on training, ethical issues, professional deontology, the role and responsibilities of interpreters, management and policy, as well as problems and strategies in different countries and regions. This collection will be a valuable reference for any student or academic working in interpreting, particularly those focusing on Public Service Interpreting anywhere in the world.

Less Frequently Used Research Methodologies in Applied Linguistics
Author: A. Mehdi Riazi
Publisher: John Benjamins Publishing Company
ISBN: 9027249210
Category : Language Arts & Disciplines
Languages : en
Pages : 282
Book Description
Research methodology plays a pivotal role in generating new knowledge in any academic discipline. Applied Linguistics (AL) researchers use a variety of research methodologies to address different research problems and research questions, given its interdisciplinary nature. Notwithstanding the plethora of research methodologies used by AL researchers, there are some methodologies that are used less frequently. The aim of this volume is to introduce and discuss these less frequently used methodologies. Each methodology is discussed in two chapters, a theoretical and a practical chapter. In the theoretical chapters, the theoretical foundations, methodological orientation, ethical issues, and critiques and responses are discussed. In the practical chapters, a showcase study is presented and discussed, including why the methodology was used, how it was implemented, the challenges the researchers faced, and the insights they gained. The volume contributes to the current methodological discussion in AL and provides early-career and seasoned researchers with the necessary discussion about these methodological orientations. Future AL researchers may use these methodologies to investigate research questions in their areas of interest. In addition, the volume can complement current methodological resources in postgraduate research methodology courses.
