Truth, Trust and Medicine

Truth, Trust and Medicine investigates trust and honesty in medicine. It looks at the doctor-patient relationship, raising questions which disturb notions of patients' autonomy and self-determination, such as withholding information and consent and covert surveillance in care units. It will be of interest to those working in medical ethics and applied philosophy, and a valuable resource for practitioners of medicine.

An Easter heart is not a heart that busies oneself with bunnies and baskets. Rather an Easter heart is a heart that believes, a heart that believes in Jesus. An Easter heart is humble, desperate, suffering, waiting, worshipful and victorious. Most of all, an Easter heart is all these things with Jesus, because of Jesus and for Jesus. 
As the lenten season unfolds, I dream that this devotional will be a spot of joy and inspiration to you. Travel with me to Israel, and discover the glory of historical truth, and join me in learning from the women who were with Jesus during his final days and hours. You can read through this devotional a week at a time, saving the final chapter for Easter, or travel at your own pace. Maybe you gather friends to take this journey with you, discussing the scriptures and questions together for richer study. There are no rules. It's your journey to savor. 
Each chapter begins with a quick sentence prayer in the hopes of grounding your spirit before you dig into the content. The chapters end with practical steps for application that first include a verse from scripture for memorization, and I encourage you to pray each scripture over your own life. The Words Worth Repeating sections provide statements and themes that are easy to remember. The ask and apply provides journal prompts or discussion points for you to engage in your time with God or with friends. The prayers at the end of each chapter are prayers that I've prayed over my own life, and I pray them also for you. Finally, each chapter closes with a favorite holiday recipe that I've enjoyed with my own family, providing your family with a complete Easter feast. 
My dream is that this devotional will be a spot of joy and inspiration to you in the days leading up to Easter. I hope that you will take a little time each day or week to read a chapter, and then spend some time in your journal reflecting, praying and applying the truths that you have learned. Perhaps you want to gather one, two or more best girlfriends to read and reflect together. Everything is better in community.\nThe recipes are for you to savor but also an exercise in singing to the Lord in the kitchen while planning to celebrate Him with family and friends. After such a long season of isolation, Spring will be here again. Buy some flowers, set a pretty table, bake a cake and prepare a meal for those you love. In the Bible they fasted and feasted. Perhaps you will fast in some fashion for the 40 days of Lent to settle your heart, your Easter believing heart, and then enjoy the most special holiday by going all out in honor of the cross and resurrection.\nFinally, this devotional was never intended for simple enjoyment. While I hope you do enjoy reading through it, my prayer is that it inspires you into a richer and deeper faith and a greater experience of Jesus. Each chapter incorporates a variety of action steps for you to take in the hopes that your Easter heart will expand, soften and grow. Invite others to join you, and together experience the fullness of a life alongside Jesus, our living hope.\nThrough this 6-chapter devotional, may Jesus come alive as you lean into His living hope. I pray that you discover our resurrected Messiah through this journey. There is so much hope in an Easter heart. Do you believe?

Simply Joy Rain or Shine 
Learning to live with joy during the sunshine and the storms\nFor the joy of the Lord is my strength Nehemiah 8:10\nJoin me on this unforgettable adventure of discovering joy. Together we will learn how to cultivate joy and spread it generously to others.\nThrough my mission trips to rural Kenya and my own study of God's word, I have discovered the possibility and power of living with joy. Unlike happiness, joy doesn't come and go depending on the surrounding circumstances. Rather, joy is the umbrella sheltering and protecting our lives. It's like a pair of sunglasses that we choose to put on in order to see God more clearly despite the blinding brightness of our harsh world. Joy pierces through the pain and delivers a glimpse of who God is amidst the hurt, sadness, and sorrow.\nJoin me on this unforgettable adventure of discovering true, everlasting joy, a joy so rich that it overflows from our hearts and spreads generously to others.\nAre you ready for joy?\nTo learn more about the orphanage or to feed an orphan or widow, go to www.jennifer-jackson.org\nJennifer Jackson's grace-filled writings inspire and delight readers. Offering compelling stories from her own life, Jennifer's devotionals, and now this book on JOY will touch your heart and point you toward a deeper relationship with God and the powerful reality of joyful Christian faith.\nJennifer devotes her life to Christ, and she is especially committed to helping women flourish in Jesus. She is the radio show host of "Simply for Women," a television host for "Your Next Step," a Bible teacher, speaker, and author. For over twenty-five years, she has served the local church alongside her husband, Doyle, Senior Pastor of The Church Next Door in Columbus, Ohio. Jennifer has witnessed thousands of lives transformed by the gospel of Jesus, and she can't wait for you to move closer to God through His redeeming grace, perfect love, and forever joy.\nwww.jennifer-jackson.org

How to Speak Human: A Practical Guide to Getting the Best from the Humans You Work With

Jackson, Dougal

wiley

How, in a secular world, should we resolve ethically controversial and troubling issues relating to health care? Should we, as some argue, make a clean sweep, getting rid of the Hippocratic ethic, such vestiges of it as remain? Jennifer Jackson seeks to answer these significant questions, establishing new foundations for a traditional and secular ethic which would not require a radical and problematic overhaul of the old.   These new foundations rest on familiar observations of human nature and human needs. Jackson presents morality as a loose anatomy of constituent virtues that are related in different ways to how we fare in life, and suggests that in order to address problems in medical ethics, a virtues-based approach is needed. Throughout, attention is paid to the role of philosophy in medical ethics, and how it can be used to clarify key notions and distinctions that underlie current debates and controversial issues. By reinstating such concepts as justice, cardinal virtue, and moral duty, Jackson lays the groundwork for an ethics of health care that makes headway toward resolving seeming dilemmas in medical ethics today.  This penetrating and accessible book will be invaluable to students of sociology and health care, as well as those who are interested in the ethical uncertainties faced by the medical world.
