Pagliaros' comprehensive guide to drugs and substances of abuse
Louis A. Pagliaro, and Ann Marie Pagliaro
"With society's growing use of drugs and substances of abuse, health care professionals need to be aware of how the drugs patients use affect behavior, cognition, learning, memory, and other aspects of mental and physical health. Physicians, other prescribers, and pharmacists need to know the abuse potential and current "street use" patterns of prescribed drugs, and all health professionals need to recognize signs and symptoms of drug or substance intoxication, overdosage, and withdrawal."--BOOK JACKET.
Qualitative research for allied health professionals
Linda Finlay and Claire Ballinger
"Qualitative Research for Allied Health Professionals - Challenging Choices is a practical text, which addresses the links between philosophy, research method and practice in an accessible, readable way." "The subtitle, 'Challenging Choices', carries a double meaning: qualitative research is both challenging (ie, demanding and stimulating) to undertake and likely to be challenged and contested. In particular, the choices researchers make when designing, carrying out and reporting research will attract scrutiny." "The book is structured in three parts. Part I sensitizes readers to the complex issues which challenge qualitative researchers at the planning stage of their projects. In Part II, the challenge of using different methodologies is critically explored by eleven authors who describe their individual research experiences. Part III examines the choices researchers make when they evaluate and present research."--BOOK JACKET.
