Los estudiantes de Medicina tienen que estar comprometidos con el desarrollo de sus capacidades para poder aportarle a la sociedad, lo que implica una disposición permanente para aprender, innovar y mejorar su desempeño profesional. Pero el conocimiento disciplinar en ciencias básicas y clínicas por sí solo no es suficiente y requiere ampliarse con una mirada psicosocial que les ayude a los futuros médicos a comprender que la relación entra la salud y la enfermedad es un proceso complejo que integra múltiples variables que deben considerar para identificar las necesidades de los pacientes y sus familias. Por esta razón, las habilidades comunicativas son una herramienta indispensable para el desarrollo de todas las competencias médicas. Así, el objetivo principal de Habilidades de comunicación en la formación médica contemporánea es contribuir a la toma de conciencia sobre la importancia de desarrollar oportunamente dichas habilidades, por medio de la experiencia de la Facultad de Medicina de la Universidad de los Andes y cómo ha asumido el reto de acompañar a los estudiantes en el mejoramiento de su comunicación, con el fin de que logren un ejercicio profesional eficaz y efectivo, pero sobre todo más humano. "Habilidades de comunicación en el proceso de la formación médica", trabajo de la Facultad de Medicina de la Universidad de los Andes que da origen a este libro, fue premiado como estrategia innovadora en el proceso de enseñanza y aprendizaje para la formación médica en pregrado en el IX Congresso Brasileiro de Medicina de Família e Comunidade, que se llevó a cabo en Fortaleza, Brasil, en el año 2008.

The overwhelming demand for more histories of yet more words is satisfied in the eagerly awaited second edition of Medical Meanings: A Glossary of Word Origins. Here the reader will find not just etymology and explanations of medical terminology but lessons in history and popular culture. They will learn what really ailed John Merrick, a.k.a., the Elephant Man; what odd deformity plagued the House of Hapsburg, rulers of Spain from 1493 to 1780; and what the connection is between fetal alcohol syndrome and Little Orphan Annie. Charming, witty, and a rollicking learning experience, the second edition of Medical Meanings is fully updated and revised to include over thirty percent more of the definitions, histories, and amusing anecdotes readers of the first edition so treasured.

Physicians who care for patients with life-threatening illnesses face daunting communication challenges. Patients and family members can react to difficult news with sadness, distress, anger, or denial. This book defines the specific communication tasks involved in talking with patients with life-threatening illnesses and their families. Topics include delivering bad news, transition to palliative care, discussing goals of advance-care planning and do-not-resuscitate orders, existential and spiritual issues, family conferences, medical futility, and other conflicts at the end of life. Drs Anthony Back, Robert Arnold, and James Tulsky bring together empirical research as well as their own experience to provide a roadmap through difficult conversations about life-threatening issues. The book offers both a theoretical framework and practical conversational tools that the practising physician and clinician can use to improve communication skills, increase satisfaction, and protect themselves from burnout.

Among the ways that digital media has transformed political activism, the most remarkable is not that new media allows disorganized masses to speak, but that it enables organized activist groups to listen. Beneath the waves of e-petitions, "likes," and hashtags lies a sea of data - a newly quantified form of supporter sentiment - and advocacy organizations can now utilize new tools to measure this data to make decisions and shape campaigns. In this book, David Karpf discusses the power and potential of this new "analytic activism," exploring the organizational and media logics that determine how digital inputs shape the choices that political campaigners make. He provides the first careful analysis of how organizations like Change.org and Upworthy.com influence the types of political narratives that dominate our Facebook newsfeeds and Twitter timelines, and how MoveOn.org and its "netroots" peers use analytics to listen more effectively to their members and supporters. As well, he identifies the boundaries that define the scope of this new style of organized citizen engagement. But also raising a note of caution, Karpf identifies the dangers and limitations in putting too much faith in these new forms of organized listening.
