Book excerpt: 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.

This book was released on 2011-04-25 with total page 218 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The properties and function of human communication. Called “one of the best books ever about human communication,” and a perennial bestseller, Pragmatics of Human Communication has formed the foundation of much contemporary research into interpersonal communication, in addition to laying the groundwork for context-based approaches to psychotherapy. The authors present the simple but radical idea that problems in life often arise from issues of communication, rather than from deep psychological disorders, reinforcing their conceptual explorations with case studies and well-known literary examples. Written with humor and for a variety of readers, this book identifies simple properties and axioms of human communication and demonstrates how all communications are actually a function of their contexts. Topics covered in this wide-ranging book include: the origins of communication; the idea that all behavior is communication; meta-communication; the properties of an open system; the family as a system of communication; the nature of paradox in psychotherapy; existentialism and human communication.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Technology and increasing levels of education have exposed people to more information than ever before. These societal gains, however, have also helped fuel a surge in narcissistic and misguided intellectual egalitarianism that has crippled informed debates on any number of issues. Today, everyone knows everything: with only a quick trip through WebMD or Wikipedia, average citizens believe themselves to be on an equal intellectual footing with doctors and diplomats. All voices, even the most ridiculous, demand to be taken with equal seriousness, and any claim to the contrary is dismissed as undemocratic elitism. Tom Nichols' The Death of Expertise shows how this rejection of experts has occurred: the openness of the internet, the emergence of a customer satisfaction model in higher education, and the transformation of the news industry into a 24-hour entertainment machine, among other reasons. Paradoxically, the increasingly democratic dissemination of information, rather than producing an educated public, has instead created an army of ill-informed and angry citizens who denounce intellectual achievement. When ordinary citizens believe that no one knows more than anyone else, democratic institutions themselves are in danger of falling either to populism or to technocracy or, in the worst case, a combination of both. An update to the 2017breakout hit, the paperback edition of The Death of Expertise provides a new foreword to cover the alarming exacerbation of these trends in the aftermath of Donald Trump's election. Judging from events on the ground since it first published, The Death of Expertise issues a warning about the stability and survival of modern democracy in the Information Age that is even more important today.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the past few years, an increasing number of colleges and universities have added courses in biomedical ethics to their curricula. To some extent, these additions serve to satisfy student demands for "relevance. " But it is also true that such changes reflect a deepening desire on the part of the academic community to deal effectively with a host of problems which must be solved if we are to have a health-care delivery system which is efficient, humane, and just. To a large degree, these problems are the unique result of both rapidly changing moral values and dramatic advances in biomedical technology. The past decade has witnessed sudden and conspicuous controversy over the morality and legality of new practices relating to abortion, therapy for the mentally ill, experimentation using human subjects, forms of genetic interven tion, and euthanasia. Malpractice suits abound, and astronomical fees for malpractice insurance threaten the very possibility of medical and health-care practice. Without the backing of a clear moral consensus, the law is frequently forced into resolving these conflicts only to see the moral issues involved still hotly debated and the validity of the existing law further questioned. Take abortion, for example. Rather than settling the legal issue, the Supreme Court's original abortion decision in Roe v. Wade (1973), seems only to have spurred further legal debate. And of course, whether or not abortion is a mo rally ac ceptable procedure is still the subject of heated dispute.
