  • Psychoprosthetics

    9,995.00 1,995.00

    Psychoprosthetics is the study of the psychological aspects of prosthetic use and of rehabilitative processes in those conditions that require the use of prosthetic devices. For people with limb loss, the fitting of a prosthesis can give rise to a variety of issues from functional rehabilitation to quality of life, well-being, participation in society and cosmetic satisfaction. As prosthetic technology continues to become more sophisticated and advanced, there is an onus on those who work with prosthetic users, to be aware of the impact of prosthetics on the ways in which people understand and construct their realities and their attempts to cope with and relate to them. However, despite the broad and increasing interest in psychosocial aspects of prosthetic use and rehabilitation, to date there has not been a complete volume on the topic – this book now addresses that need.

    Psychoprosthetics brings together the most recent and exciting research and knowledge in this new field into one easily accessible volume. It contributes to a better understanding of the complex human dynamics involved in prosthetic use and provides an analysis of the practice, research and theory in the field of psychoprosthetics.

    Written by some of the leading experts to the field, this informative and cutting-edge text will be of relevance to students, practitioners and researchers from a wide range of disciplines, including prosthetics and orthotics, occupational therapy, physiotherapy, rehabilitation medicine, engineering, nursing and psychology.

  • Qbase Radiology 1

    3,520.00 2,320.00

    QBase Radiology 1 and 2 together represent a completely comprehensive resource for all postgraduate and undergraduate trainees in radiology. In combination, the books include 900 multiple choice questions (480 on Volume 1 and 420 on Volume 2) and the free CD-ROMs that accompany both books also contain all 900 MCQs and over 100 high quality radiological images. The powerful QBase examination analysis software allows the reader to attempt the same exams as printed in the book, but on screen, realistically replicating the examination situation. The user can also ‘custom-build’ their own exams based on their own choice of subjects and number of questions, sit an exam that is automatically set by the program using all of the questions on the CD, or they can sit a ‘shuffled’ version of an exam, whereby the question parts (A-E) are reorganised automatically to avoid pattern recognition. The software also allows the user to set their own ‘confidence level’ when taking an exam and it will automatically mark, analyse and store completed exams for future review and re-sitting, allowing the package to be used as a fully interactive self-learning tool.
