READ THIS BOOK AND YOU WILL UNDERSTAND!!!

As a Workers' Compensation practitioner, this is the book that I recommend to all the aquaintances that ask for free advice. I also tend to recommend it to large companies that operate in CA and other states, because it gives the law and requirements in terms that a high school graduate can understand.

There is more emphasis in this book on answers and "by the number" processes than legal precedent or analysis, which I find easier to follow for the lay person. Chris Ball also has a number of forms included with simple completion directions.

If someone is looking for an overview with more legal justification or reference to statutes, the California Workers' Compensation Handbook is an excellent choice. This book by Stanford Herlick is updated every year, and has shorter sections with less hand-holding.

I think that the Herlick paperback is the reference source of choice for the attorney or paralegal to carry in the car or briefcase for quick review of issues and solutions.

I bought this book when I was first injured after getting so frustrated at not being able to get answers to my questions anywhere else. I searched the internet, talked to people, but I just kept going in circles. Then I discovered this book. It saved me. I have since hired a lawyer, however, you will feel more empowered and in control if you understand the process and the terminology. Plus, insurance companies try to "get away" with some things, assuming the average person won't know their workers comp rights. This book has saved me several times in that instance. (For example, they made doctor's appointments for me, sent me the info on their legal letterhead saying I was required to go to that particular doctor. Since I knew my rights from reading the book, I challenged them and didn't have to go to their doctor. Basically, I think they try these tactics just because most people aren't informed, and will just do what they say) It's so important to understand what is happening with your case, and what your rights are. I've been injured for four years, and find I research something in this book at least once a week. If you have a workers comp injury, you shouldn't be without this book! (Also, Nolo puts out a great book on filing for social security disability too) Best of luck to you!

The average consumer has no idea of the laws and the rights he has when faced with an on the job injury.

This book is easy to read and understand. I am a nurse case manager for workers comp injuries and found this book extremely helpful. I encourage all my clients to obtain this book even if they have a lawyer. It gives them a solid knowledge base when the docs, attorneys and insurance people are throwing terms around.

It is well organized and follows a normal sequence of events. It was written by an attorney who handles workers comp cases.

I highly recommend this book.

Words like "spellbinding" are thrown around too often, but I truly could not put this book down. It is a rare chance to visit inside the experience of a person with a brain injury, and inside the experience of rehab. Fortunately for the reader, the writer is a man of rare courage and humor, and the trip, while painful, is ...well, spellbinding.

The writing is a little bit uneven, but don't let that stop you. The story is the thing, and he tells it well.

The Totem Pole is an heroic tale of the human spirit in overcoming horrific trauma, told with complete candor, considerable insight, and an ultimate triumphal joy. The Totem Pole is highly recommended, inspiring reading.

This is the story of a man who was at the pinnacle of his career in the morning, and in the afternoon was lapsing in and out of consciousness, fighting for his life on a sea-swept ledge on a remote Tasmanian sea stack. The account follows the events of that Friday 13th an subsequent memories of the Tasmanian hospital, journey home, and painful experiences during rehabilitation in Clatterbridge.

The whole story ebbs and flows wildly with emotion, and you can only wonder at Pritchard's strength of character, and marvel at his ability to tell his story in such a clear manner.

See also (...)for further details of Pritchard's experiences.

Although it follows his award-winning work, Deep Play, it cannot be described as a sequel. The Totem Pole is an account of a singular event in the author's life: a climbing accident in Australia that resulted in brain damage and partial paralysis. His rehabilitation is marked by the frightening uncertainty of how much (or how little) progress he will make. Climbing had been the essence of his life, and now no one can tell him if and when he will ever climb again.For an early dropout from school (at his father's urging), Pritchard has an amazing writing talent. "Deep Play" showed signs of his ability, but "The Totem Pole" brings Pritchard's talent to full flower.The only disappointment in the book is the middle section, where he switches from his narrative to a transcription of a taped diary made during his rehabilitation. The transcripts are a noticeable dropoff in the writing, but help reveal the inspired level with which the book begins and ends.A standout in the genre of climbing books, Joe Simpson fans will not be disappointed.

Most orthopaedic surgeons are aware of Hoppenfeld's Anatomical Exposures text...this is the other one, which is just as important and helpful for the general or specialist orthopod. For residents who often are in a quandary regarding routine followup and rehabilitation goals with regards to patients, this paperback proves invaluable. Chief residents who often run clinics will find this as an excellent tool for evaluating the progress of their patients postop. Another excellent text with self explanatory illustrations and photographs.

An excellent,a great work by professor Hoppenfeld and his team. The best book worldwidelly on his field as offer advices and protocols on rehabilitation of fractures day by day,week by week,both for Orthopedic surgeons and for Physical therapists they work together.Me,i'm a Physical therapist for over 22years and i'm working in the Physical Therapy Department of Social Security Institute (I.K.A) of Greece in the city of Thessaloniki. This book is "a diamond" for every medical library.I really feel very lucky to have this book in my hands.

Iam a orthopedial surgeon with all most 25 years on my practice, and I 'd like every resident may read it, it is a critical review of the fractures that gives a line for the junior or senior surgeon, the autor is a rarelly formative teacher, that has help me and others to find easy the job, with his anterior books, and this new one is extremelly good,since I receipt it I readed it in two days, and now Iam checking my knowledge with it. Its is a new AMAZON SUCCESS and Dr. Hoppenfeld gift to the medicine...

Doctors have a hard enough time looking for the definative source for information that is current and accurate. Dr. Auerbach, founder of Wilderness Medical Society, has updated this tome with a cast of experts from across the globe, in fields that range from water disinfection to acute mountain sickness. The detailed and well-referenced chapters are clear and informative, giving both practical field-based treatment as well as care follow up care for the ER and primary care provider. It is equally useful for clinicians, researchers, and field-deployable medical providers in rural remote areas like paramedics, expedition docs, disaster relief personnel, military medics, and guides.

This is a great technical manual for managing wilderness emergencies for professionals. A more complete text, I have yet to see.

Foregoing knowledge of the existance of this text was unkown, until it was needed in an emergent situation on site. At that time a stingray injury required our immediate attention. With no previous experience in this kind of injury, the book provided immediate no frills information on treatment, backup care and procedures. After this experience, I carefully examined the text at length and was amazed at the comprehensive nature of the topic that was covered. I would recommend this text to be present in all health care provider libraries and offices, as it is in mine. Dr. H.J. Willis D.O. Emergency & Trauma Physicia

It is no surprise that the Fifth Edition of this unique medical reference is better than ever. For those who are new to this authoritative tome, you will immediately notice how well it is organized to help those in an emergency effectively find the answers they need. The chapters cover Mountain Medicine, Cold and Heat, Burns, Fire and Radiation, Rescue and Survival, Injuries and Medical Intervention, Animals Insects and Zoonoses, Plants, Food and Water, Marine Medicine, Travel and Environmental Hazards, Equipment, Special Populations (issue related to children and the elderly) and the Wilderness.

Every subject is carefully explained so the medical injuries surrounding the subject can be identified and understood in context and with greater detail. For example, to understand how to rescue someone from an avalanche, the reader must understand how avalanches are formed. The book also goes into detail on rescue equipment and their correct use as well as proper self and organized rescues before discussing medical treatments for avalanche victims.

The bulk of the book consists of chapters regarding various injuries and conditions encompassing symptomology, description diagnostic techniques (tests and such) that can be employed, treatment options, and the range of expected prognoses--in a nutshell, what is the likely injury, how do we treat it, and what's the outlook in terms of cure and survival.

A wealth of reliable, understandable information is readily accessible primarily targeting the medical professional but also for the lay person accompanied by very helpful illustrations.

The update is most welcome, as the area of wilderness medicine has grown significantly beyond rescue of mountain climbers to the practice of medicine in situations of constrained resource, during times of catastrophe like 9/11 or Katrina and often in appalling conditions. This new edition also identifies new and better treatments of everything from high-altitude pulmonary and cerebral edema to heart stroke.

"Truth is the daughter of time", a saying used by Alice Stewart, cannot come soon enough in this era.
Gayle Greene should be held in the highest esteem for the eloquent presentation of Alice Stewart's quest for truth. Her writing is crisp and unencumbered, and it hold the reader's interest into the life of this feisty, humorous, brilliant woman. Dr. Stewart, just by being of the female gender, found it hard to be taken seriously, and it was not until late in her life that she was honored for a life of accomplishment and dedication. A simple woman born to parents who were both doctors; doctors who put their patients ahead of money and power.
It was a tenet to be carried on by their daughter, Alice Stewart, who never gave up trying to educate the public about radiation proliferation. Thanks to her, thousands of babies were saved from the horrors of exposure to radiation when the medical profession listened to what she had to say about xraying during the first trimester.
Later Alice was funded to examine the effects of radiation on works who handled nuclear materials and weaponry. When her message was not what the AEC and others wanted to hear or receive, they tried to confiscate her work and cut her funding. Indeed, the funding was cut off, but she managed to secure her work and continue its research. Gayle Greene's writing abilities are able to give you the sense of Dr. Stewart's anguish and frustration.
The Woman Who Knew Too Much is a classic example of the control of information which the public direly needs, but which is buried and censored. This book, though written several years ago, is as pertinent as if it were published yesterday, and it should be read by all who are interested in the welfare of humanity. The inclusion in a science or social studies curriculum of the developing minds of students would be a well-deserved legacy for this wonderful woman who died in 2002 at the age of 96.

As Research Director of the Hanford Veterans Cancer Mortality Study I have worked closely with Dr. Alice Stewart. I have learned from her, laughed with her and admired her as the most extraordinary human being I have ever known. But, I never knew her well enough. You must read this book! It will give you a new understanding of the meaning of courage and integrity. More importantly - have your children, especially your daughters, read this book. Thank goodness Gayle Greene has written this eminently readable biography of Alice. It allows us to understand where her drive comes from and how Dr. Stewart can suffer the slings and arrows of the federal scientific pygmies who attack her work. The heart of the story, and a key to Dr. Stewart's personality, can be found in the juxtaposition of the the ending words of Chapter 13 where Professor Greene says "Alice is called in by...radiation victims, her investigations turn up cancer in excess ... the studies are handed over to official bodies...the official studies invoke the A-bomb data to discredit her finds....Time passes." `It's a long, slow business,' she (Dr. Stewart) says." Compare this with one of Dr. Stewart's favorite quotations, "truth is the daughter of time." She has waited, we will wait; but Dr. Helen Caldicott is right "her work may (I say `will') receive the recognition and thanks of the future." When one finishes reading this marvelous book one cannot help but think of George Sand saying "humanity is outraged in me and with me. We must not dissimulate nor try to forget this indignation; which is one of the most passionate forms of love." Thank the Good Lord for this stunning creature called Alice Stewart. And thank Gayle Greene for helping us to know her just a bit better.

Courage and Integrity in Science: A Precious Rarety

The Woman Who Knew Too Much: Alice Stewart and the Secrets of Radiation by Gayle Greene. Dr. Stewart is a British physician and epidemiologist (born in 1906 into a large family of physicians) who revolutionized the concept of radiation risk. In the 1950s, while surveying childhood mortalities in the British Isles, she finds that then quite common X-ray examinations during pregnancy doubled the risk for childhood cancer. Fueled by the wrath of radiologists, her work has been viciously derided among the medical establishment for more than two decades. In the 1970s, she finds that some workers at nuclear weapons production sites, such as Hanford, WA or Oakridge, TN are dying of radiation induced cancers, showing that presumed "safe" levels of occupational exposures put these workers at a twenty times higher risk than officially admitted. With that finding she places herself on the "enemy list" of an immensely powerful nuclear weapons establishment, including its scientific elite, and at the center of an international controversy over radiation risks. Stewart's fascinating story, a collaborative memoir told by herself and Greene with verve and humor, is one of a woman scientist's ingenuity, independence, perseverance, compassion, and integrity, a fascinating tale in the checkered history of a mostly male-dominated science. Rudi H. Nussbaum, PhD, Professor Emeritus of Physics and Environmental Science.

The book spans the lifetimes of Dr. Stewart and her parents. It offers a fascinating description of medicine in Britain in the late 19th century, the entry of women into the medical field, and the institutional resistance in the second half of the 20th century to the fact that low levels of radiation are dangerous. Given the recent announcements by the US Government concerning health risks in the nuclear arms industry, this is a timely and fascinating book. Well written and researched.

Who knows what queasiness lurks in the hearts of tort lawyers? Kevin Mednick knows, and he tells all in this fast-paced, funny, knowing book about what lawyers do and how they do it. (Warning: As they say about politics and making sausage, some of it ain't pretty!) Mike Samuels may not want to be a lawyer, but by the end of "An Almost Life" most readers will want his phone number in case they slip and fall.

This is a laugh-out-loud and ultimately redemptive first novel about a self-deprecating personal injury lawyer from upstate New York. Who would have thought? A self-deprecating lawyer? But the novel has shades of Woody Allen, James Taylor, and Saul Bellow that make it all work.

Mike Samuels is just another middle-aged, middle class, divorced guy who feels he is slowly disappearing from life itself when he takes the case of Evelyn Walker. The former small town beauty has been scalped by a glue machine and by everything else in her life. When Mike realizes only he can right the terrible injustice to her, the burden of responsibility makes him want to fade away completely, but his sense of duty keeps him in the game for one last inning.

His efficient, long-suffering secretary Alice keeps his practice afloat, even when, in the middle of a major trial, he forbids her to take messages, any messages, from anybody. His girlfriend Anne-Marie is supportive, calm, sexy, and witty. Mike dotes on his two teenagers, Adam and Esperanza, and it's requited. His best friend Dan, brilliant but blustery, gives him endless pep talks on women, life, and other stuff he may really know nothing about. And while it's apparent Mike has nothing to be ashamed of except his own lackluster connection to life itself, he spends his days idly longing for the nobility of "Casablanca," plagued by hypochondria and self-doubt, reliant on Xanax to get him through the 3 a.m. willies, bullied by the viciousness of opposing lawyers, almost hopeless in courtrooms filled by deficient judges, small-minded jurors, lying witnesses, and clients who get their idea of the law from tv.

Mednick gives us a great primer on the actual practice of personal injury law. In his hands it turns out to be, and I hate to admit this, intriguing. He has a wonderful sense of place, the deteriorating landscape of the rustbelt, the fade-to-grey North country, and yet he still finds promise in small town America. He loves his characters, not just the heroic judges and doctors and the hot stripper with a complaint about her breast implants ("Can I show you the scars?") but also his triumphant ex-wife, barbaric opposing attorneys, and venal clients.

The author makes some great wisecracking detours into hypochondria, the differences between how men and women prepare for a date, lawyer's tv ads ("Mad Dog Duggan"), anti-depressants ("How could one drug cause drowsiness and insomnia?") teenagers ("Kids are forgiving creatures. You don't even have to be good. You just have to try.") America ("Rural people identify with their bosses...If Karl Marx lived in upstate New York, the world would be a different place.") and country clubs (where folks join to "disapprove of all the things they can't disapprove of elsewhere.")

I found myself wishing for a real Hollywood ending, where the bad guys get beat up in a rousing courtroom trial and the hero rides off with the stunning stripper whose scars have healed, but it's a tribute to the book's honesty that it shows us how to weather the storms of life without a swelling sound-track or explosions in Act 3.

Mike Samuels is in his forties and unhappily divorced from Andrea, his wife of sixteen years. She has since remarried; her new husband, Tom, is ambitious and prosperous, everything that Mike is not. Mike's self-esteem has hit rock bottom. "An Almost Life," by Kevin Mednick, refers to the protagonist's lack of engagement with the world; he feels like a walking shadow, a person without substance: "I'd been fading away for quite a while by then, disappearing to an unknown locale." He has a decent enough practice as a personal injury lawyer and a pretty, bright, and witty girlfriend, Ann-Marie, who, Mike insists is "not crazy about me," and "I'm not sure I like her either." In addition, he has two great kids, fifteen year old Adam and thirteen-year-old Esperanza, whom he adores and who love him as well. With all he has going for him, Mike still claims that he is merely going through the motions.

How to get Mike out of his funk? An unusual new case, brought to him by a woman in her mid-forties from upstate New York, captures his attention. Evelyn Walker suffered severe injuries when her hair was caught in a spinning roller at the paper goods plant where she worked. The roller ripped away four inches of scalp. She is suing the owners of Borum Industries, whom she claims allowed their employees to use equipment they knew to be unsafe. Evelyn tells Mike, "I want a tough lawyer from out of town." He replies, "Will you settle for one out of two?"

Mike initially has doubts about the viability of Evelyn's case. As the trial approaches, his qualms increase, since there are still some serious issues that have yet to be resolved. Is the weakness and pain in Evelyn's right arm a direct result of the accident? If so, who is responsible--the owner, for not making sure that effective safety procedures were in place, or Evelyn, for behaving carelessly? The outcome of this dispute is far from certain and Mike cannot handle much doubt in his fragile state. When his opponents resort to dirty tricks, Mike finds his inner pit bull and decides to fight back with a vengeance.

"An Almost Life" is a humorous and breezy story about a man who is a much better lawyer than he gives himself credit for, as well as an extremely loving and devoted father. Even his ex-wife doesn't hate him. Still he cannot relax and go with the flow. Fortunately, as Mike gets more deeply invested in the Walker case, he snaps out of his torpor long enough to learn about the virtues of patience, courage, and faith from his determined client.

This is a feel-good story about a nice, average guy who is having a rough time accepting the fact that his wife dumped him and that he will never be a superstar in his profession. Mednick's prose style is effortless and understated and his wry humor is delightfully engaging. The author makes personal injury law fascinating (no mean feat) and although the ending is a bit too pat and sentimental, "An Almost Life" is a diverting debut novel.

The book is a great for anyone in the exercise field. It is easy to read and straight forward. It covers every aspect of athletic training, rehab, and injury diagnosis.
A DEFINITE MUST HAVE!

I am the Head Athletic Trainer and Professor of Athletic Training Curriculum at a college in Oklahoma City. This is the best text I have ever read which caters to the education of Athletic Trainers. It is the text of choice for my Care and Prevention of Athletic Injuries class, as well as a source of reference for any challenge I face within the training room. This book is the "Trainer's Bible" bar none! I personally used the eighth edition when studing for the NATABOC exam and have used the ninth and tenth editions in my classes. I highly recommend this text for everyone in the sports medicine field. If you are a Student Atheltic Trainer and are debating whether or not to spent the Seventy-something dollars for this book. this book will make the difference between pass and fail!

This book is one of the most important books for an athletic trainer. It covers everything that is in each of the 5 different domains of an athletic trainer. Their sections on sports injuries, and treatments are invaluable to anyone who is preparing to sit for the NATA exam. It is fondly termed by those that I know as the "trainer's bible." And that is exactly what it is.

It was hard for me, but I helped people I hardly knew who demonstrated they needed help and to this day it was one of the highlights of my life--to bring them out of their troubles. Get it. Learn it. Use it. (It's so easy, even I can do it.)

This book has some amazingly simple techniques that one person does to another person to ease pain, sober someone up, and help someone heal and get well, etc. I dropped a heavy chair on my toe and it turned blue and swelled - agony! Using a technique in this book, it healed in three days.

I like this book because it gives practical, exact methods you can use to help others when they are hurt or ill.

Not designed as a method of healing, this book addresses the emotional and mental aspects of illness and injury. I've seen reports in the news in the past few years, that show that new research indicates that one's mental state affects how quickly healing occurs. I'm sure you've read them - older people with a pet at home recover faster from stroke. People who laugh often are less likely to have heart attacks. People who get hugged every day heal faster from certain illnesses.

Well, the idea is that the mind is a very powerful thing - that our bodies are affected by our state of mind.

This booklet gives these actual techniques you can use with someone who has been hurt, to help them with the mental and emotional affects of the illness or injury.

I'm telling you, these work!

These methods are called assists. My favorite assist is called a Locational. The technique is detailed in the book - exactly how to give someone a locational. I use this one on my children pretty often.

You know how kids sometimes will get upset about something, and stay upset for a while? For instance, a toddler runs across the room and falls down. Then proceeds to cry - for too long. You know he isn't really hurt, he's just upset. What do you do to help him get over it?

Well, I would give my toddler a locational - and by the end of the locational (usually less than a minute, in this kind of situation), he is laughing and happy!

My kids don't get sick very often, but when they do, we give them assists. They've learned to give them, too, and will give them to one another. They heal very quickly. When my youngest had RSV, a potentially deadly illness in a child his age, we gave him an assist in the hospital.

He was really sick - we took him to the emergency room when he developed a sudden fever and was having obvious respiratory problems. They transferred us to a larger hospital less than 2 hours later, as he wasn't responding to medication (his fever kept climbing - was at 104, and despite treatment he was having more difficulty breathing). It looked very scary, since nothing was helping him.

As soon as we arrived and got him settled into the emergency room at the second hospital, I gave him an assist outlined in this book. 20 minutes later his fever was suddenly GONE and his breathing was totally normal. The doctors were very surprised. They had him stay under observation for 4 more hours, then released him. His fever and other symptoms never returned.

The techniques in this book do not heal the person - but they help his state of mind so he CAN heal. So he CAN respond to treatment. So he isn't so distressed, and the power of his own mind can aid him, rather than hurt him in his healing process.

This is a vital book for anyone, but especially parents, because kids tend to live such rough-and-tumble lives. (At least my boys do!)

"Athletic Forever" provides information on getting into shape without getting injured. It offers nutritional guidance and provides an easy-to-understand overview of the principles of scientific training -- the very guidelines used by professional coaches and athletes for attaining peak fitness. Should you get injured in the course of pursuing sports and recreation, "Athletic Forever" will get you back in the game fast: simply refer to the back of the book where you'll find a comprehensive guide to sports injuries -- how to recognize them and what to do to overcome them. This is a no-nonsense, easy-to-understand book.

It was a great pleasure to read and learn from "Athletic Forever. The Kerlan-Jobe Orthopaedic Clinic Plan for Lifetime Fitness." Dr. Frank Jobe et al have taken on an interesting, contemporary subject in a most timely manner. The glowing forwards from Tommy Lasorda and Magic Johnson illustrate the tremndous respect that professional sports celebrities have for Dr. Jobe and "Athletic Forever." The text is formatted in a logical, concise manner and explores anatomy, injuries and treatment protocol without getting bogged down in needless detail. The KJ facts and closeups clearly add a new dimension to the body of knowlege regarding lifetime fitness. I especially enjoyed the insights with regards to diagnosing the cause of back pain. It is very refreshing to hear from the experts that high tech and costly imaging methods such as MRI's are in many cases unrelated to a patient's back pain. The section on stregthening and flexibility exercises is presented in a straight forward manner yet provides exceedingly valuable information in a refreshingly "low tech" appearance. Perhaps it is beyond the scope of the text, but it may have been useful to discuss 1 or 2 of the Kerlan-Jobe innovations in the field of sports medicine (For example, I would have been extremely interested in the story of Tommy John and the procedures and rehabilitation used in the "rebuilding of his pitcher's arm.") I would highly reccomend "Athletic Forever" to all athletes and health professionals!

Athletic Forever is an excellent health reference book because it doesn't simplify things, as so many new "fitness plans" do. Dr. Jobe & his colleagues simply present good factual information and excellent tips to help people maintain a healthy lifestyle. I found the back section of exercises particularly useful and authoritative.

I am a sports physician and I cannot recommend this "Atlas of Nuclear Imaging" enough. Through the use of clinical case studies, this very well set out manual has been of enormous assistance not only in my practice but for the many fellow physicians and sports trainers I have told about it. I have observed and (happily) participated in many dramatic turnarounds in the health of several patients, whose diagnoses might have otherwise escaped me. This is an outstanding book!
