View Rights PortalEin Kopf in einer Plastiktüte vor dem Büro, dazu ein erschossener Geschäftsführer. Mit der NGO »Interni« stimmt deutlich etwas nicht. Und nichts ist lästiger für eine wohltätige Stiftung als schlechte Presse. Fürchtet der Lebensmittel- und Fleisch-Tycoon Wellinghofen, der Hauptmäzen der »Interni«, und schickt seine Mitarbeiterin für besondere Fälle, die sich gerade Eve Klein nennt, nach Zürich zum Stiftungssitz. Nebenbei soll sie auch noch Geld für ihn auf dem Kunstmarkt waschen, mit Hilfe der mehr als undurchsichtigen Masha Harvensteen, die als Guru der Kunstwelt gilt. Neben dem sichtlich überforderten Stiftungsaufseher Max Karnofsky bekommt es Eve zudem mit dessen eisiger Gattin Helena zu tun, mit den Töchtern der Familie – Zwillinge, die glatt aus Shining stammen könnten ‒ und einem ruppigen Banker aus New York mit unguten Verbindungen. Eine Welt der Reichen und Superreichen, in der alles funktional ist. Einschließlich der Kinder. Aber das Einzige, was wirklich zu funktionieren scheint, ist der Rasenmähroboter. In dieser Welt sind Big Business, Gier und Organisiertes Verbrechen eng miteinander verzahnt. Wenn auch anders, als Eve sich das zunächst denkt …

The new SARS-CoV-2 virus appeared in December 2019. It caused a pandemic, whose consequences will certainly continue for a long time to come. The vaccines, developed in record time, proved the most effective tool in alleviating the acute, hazardous situation. Since the beginning of 2022, pharmacies have also been able to offer COVID-19 vaccinations and contribute to the collective protection strategy. With this guide, everything is ready for COVID-19 vaccination in the pharmacy.

"What can you learn in war? Do you become numb, do you get used to it at some point? Does war make you "hard", uncaring, above pain? No. These are just clichés. Every day brings new horrors. At best, one learns for some time to suppress strong feelings, because to give in to them would weaken one's life instinct." In a very stirring and shocking, but sometimes humorous language, Christoph Brumme tells of the situation in Ukraine, the everyday life of his family and friends, of fears, longings and political assessments. The diary entries of the war and the resistance of the Ukrainians, starting from the first signs of the impending war in mid-January 2022 until the printing of this book, 1st May 2022, impressively bear witness to the brutality of these events.

»Es ist vergeblich, für sie zu leben und für sie zu sterben. Sie sagen: er ist ein Jude.« Dies schrieb einer der erfolgreichsten Schriftsteller deutscher Sprache in der ersten Hälfte des 20. Jahrhunderts, Jakob Wassermann, in seinem autobiographischen Essay Mein Weg als Deutscher und Jude. Er war Deutscher, er war Jude – »eines so sehr und so völlig wie das andere, keines ist vom anderen zu lösen«. Beides zugleich zu sein aber war ihm in der Welt, in der er lebte, verwehrt: »Es ist mir, als wäre nur bei den Toten Gerechtigkeit zu finden gegen die Lebenden. Denn was diese tun, ist ganz und gar unerträglich.« Dieses radikal anklagende Buch wurde 1921 erstmals veröffentlicht, zwölf Jahre, bevor die Nazis in Deutschland an die Macht kamen und damit begonnen wurde, den Juden Europas das Leben zu nehmen.Jakob Wassermann führt die persönlich erfahrene Bodenlosigkeit einer deutsch-jüdischen Doppelexistenz vor Augen, die Abgründe des Antisemitismus, mit denen sich ein Jude in Deutschland schon in den frühen zwanziger Jahren konfrontiert sah.
The handling of drug interactions in the pharmacy has an important significance. A well-functioning interaction management system increases the safety of drug therapy for patients, promotes interdisciplinary exchange between physician and pharmacist, and boosts the skills of the local pharmacy. The author, an experienced practitioner, has developed standard templates for successfully communicating the most commonly occurring, clinically relevant interactions: - Decision aids in the form of flowcharts: When and how should the communication with the physician take place? - Aids to communication as sample forms that can be tailored to the individual pharmacy: What information does the physician need, what solutions does the pharmacy suggest? The forms cover both general interactions and specific interaction pairs and mechanisms: The appropriate solution for every interaction!
The ward pharmacist in the hospital is like the airbag in a car. As part of a fail-safe system, they monitor and optimise the patient’s drug therapy. Ward pharmacists work hand in hand with medical and nursing staff. That situation is also reflected in this workbook. All the cases presented were patients who had been cared for, evaluated and documented by a physician-pharmacist duo or similar team with combined medical and pharmaceutical expertise. The editorial team considered it important to illustrate all critical indications typically encountered in a hospital. In assessing and selecting the examples, they were able to draw upon the many years’ experience of their pioneering work as hospital and ward pharmacists. Practical tips, checklists, comments and advice for working in the ward environment round off the individual chapters. By learning from actual cases, this book offers the unique chance to develop an instinct for the pitfalls of drug safety. That applies to those who have successfully completed further training in the field of “Medication Management in the Hospital” and for all who wish to ensure the optimum treatment for their patients through competent work in clinical pharmacy.
Why is a subject regarded as off-limits and how does one handle it? What is better kept to yourself and what is essential that you say to the person affected? Countless people are ashamed of their diseases and do not dare to talk about them in public. But how can you find out what is meant, even though it is not openly stated? This calls for sensitivity and professional expertise! Only if someone has sufficient background knowledge about a disease and its possible treatments can emerging worries and anxieties be confronted, preconceptions dispelled and existing myths refuted. This book sheds clear and concise light on 50 supposedly taboo subjects, as well as providing appropriate phrases for difficult consultations in the pharmacy!
