PALGRAVE~MACMILLAN

Sociological and related studies of systems of religion tend to be fragmented. This book brings together and assesses a diverse range of substantive sociological, anthropological and social-psychological scholarship dealing with the broad spectrum of religious belief, experience and behaviour from the work of anthropologists on the religions of tribal and pre-industrial peoples to explorations of the origins, development and impact of the great world religions. The book will have particular appeal not only in the fields of sociology, social anthropology, but also religious studies.

This handbook aims to provide doctors in training and practice with expert recommendations on diagnosis and treatment of all major diseases and disorders. The disorders are arranged alphabetically for fast access and the book also includes a symptom index. Information is condensed into a double-page spread, including clinical pictures, tables and algorithms. Each double-page spread presents diagnosis on one page and treatment on the other. Diagnosis and management of each disorder is considered under the following headings: diagnosis; symptoms; signs with explanatory notes of their significance; investigations, including physical examinations and laboratory tests that can be used to aid diagnosis; complications; differential diagnosis; aetiology and epidemiology; treatment - diet and lifestyle; criteria for treatment; pharmacological treatment with details of drug dosages; treatment aims; other treatment options; prognosis and progression; follow-ups and management; and key references.

Representing Others in Medieval Iberian Literature explores the ways Arabic, Jewish and Christian intellectuals in medieval Iberia (courtiers and clerics) adapt and transform the Andalusi go-between figure in order to represent their own role as cultural intermediaries. While these authors are of different religious, ethnic and linguistic backgrounds, they use the go-between, an essential figure in the Andalusi courtly discourse of desire, to open up a secular, more tolerant intellectual space in the face of increasingly fundamentalist currents in their respective cultures. The way this study focuses on the hybrid discourses and identities of medieval Iberia as Muslim, Jewish and Christian responses to continual contact/conflict reflects a methodological approach based in Cultural and Translation Studies.
