It is comprehensive and updated text as per the present day advances in the subject of Pulmonary and Critical Care. This periodical encompasses the latest guidelines for healthcare professionals for the care of pneumonias patients. "Pneumonia" has been chosen as the subject for this issue, because of its overwhelming importance in medical practice of all specialties. Recognized since the time of Hippocrates, pneumonia remains the primary pulmonary illness in humans. It occurs in all age groups from neonates to the elderly. Not infrequently, it is a cause of serious consequences, sometimes leading to sepsis, respiratory failure, and death. Pneumonia acquired in the community settings differs from the one acquired in the hospitals in various aspects, such as the microbial etiology, diagnostic algorithm, and therapeutic approach. The response to therapy and prognosis are also different in different types of pneumonias. Pneumonia can also be classified on the etiological basis, whether caused by microorganisms (bacteria, viruses, fungi, or rarely parasites), chemical agents, or immunological injuries. Different articles in this issue allude to some of these aspects.

Free Download Glenn D. Deckert, "Working Abroad with Purpose: The Way of a Tentmaker" English | ISBN: 1532674554 | 2019 | 124 pages | EPUB | 1122 KB The wise King Solomon gives us this proverb: "Do you see a man skilled in his work? He will serve before kings" (Prov 22:29). This book won't ensure that you and your professional skills end up meeting kings, but it will show how you and your training can be planted among unreached people abroad. By taking a job in your field of expertise, you gain far more than a paycheck; rather, a network of relationships with colleagues and neighbors. In doing so, you will learn that you are in good company with the Apostle Paul and thousands of other "tentmakers" in church history.  Free Download Jason S Barnhart, "Word-Spirit Communal Revelationalism: The Brethren-Evangelical Theological Epistemology of Dr. J. Allen Miller " English | ISBN: 1666729027 | 2022 | 234 pages | EPUB | 4 MB This work first examines the theological streams of influence that constitute Brethren theology-Anabaptism and Radical Pietism-with particular focus given to key thinkers and leaders. It then explores the nuances of what came to be American Fundamentalism and Protestant Liberalism of the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, which provide important context to the thought of J. Allen Miller (1866-1935), a central Ashland Brethren theologian of that period. Miller's theology demonstrates sympathy with both poles of the theological spectrum but remains distinct as a thoughtful mediation between these two extremes. Miller's theological approach, termed "Word-Spirit Communal Revelationalism," consists in his particular theological epistemology and biblical hermeneutics. When Miller's theological witness moves into conversation with American evangelicalism, it proves helpful for the Ashland Brethren as they engage with the contemporary American evangelical landscape. His witness assists Brethren and other American evangelicals in offering a corrective to several pathologies or distortions identified within American evangelicalism. His theological method assists the larger American evangelical movement with tools for mediation over against polarization.  Free Download Gareth William David Stewart, "Word and Power: Is the Theology of John Wimber Compatible with Presbyterian Theology and Practice?" English | ISBN: 1625645902 | 2015 | 284 pages | EPUB | 646 KB Historically, the Reformed and Charismatic streams have seemed to be almost mutually exclusive. In recent years, this exclusivity has been being challenged by a new generation of Reformed thinkers. This work aims at considering the contribution of John Wimber, the late leader of the Vineyard Churches, to contemporary theological reflection within the Reformed tradition. Taking into account John Wimber's unique theology of the "radical middle" which is somewhere between Pentecostal and Evangelical, this book asks whether Wimber may be a possible alternative source for the contemporary Reformed Churches as they approach ministry and mission in the twenty-first century. Written from a confessional Presbyterian context in Northern Ireland, Word and Power places Wimber in his theological context and asks whether Wimber's view of power evangelism, discipleship formation, and ministry training might be a model that Reformed Churches-and Presbyterians in particular-could adopt for their ecclesiology today.  Free Download Nancy Hedberg, "Women, Men, and the Trinity: What Does It Mean to Be Equal?" English | ISBN: 1608991997 | 2010 | 136 pages | EPUB | 428 KB There is a gridlock in churches today regarding the role of women. This debate extends beyond the relationship between men and women. In 1 Corinthians 11:3, when Paul says, "the head of woman is man, and the head of Christ is God" he is drawing a parallel between the relationship of men and women and the relationship of the Father and the Son within the Trinity. This book explores the controversial theological premise that, while maintaining equality of essence, functionally the Son is eternally subordinate to the Father and women are permanently subordinate to men. Nancy Hedberg shares from her research and personal experience to make the case that equality of essence on the one hand, and permanent functional subordination on the other-whether applied to the Trinity or the relationship between men and women-is a questionable premise and is not supported logically, historically, or biblically. Women, Men, and the Trinity includes contemporary, historical, and biblical research regarding functional and essential equality and explores the practical implications of true equality.  Free Download Rachel Reeves, "Women of Westminster: The MPs who Changed Politics" English | ISBN: 1788312201 | 2019 | 320 pages | PDF | 6 MB In 1919 Nancy Astor was elected as the Member of Parliament for Plymouth Sutton, becoming the first woman MP to take her seat in the House of Commons. Her achievement was all the more remarkable given that women (and even then only some women) had only been entitled to vote for just over a year. In the past 100 years, a total of 491 women have been elected to Parliament. Yet it was not until 2016 that the total number of women ever elected surpassed the number of male MPs in a single parliament. The achievements of these political pioneers have been remarkable - Britain has now had two female Prime Ministers and women MPs have made significant strides in fighting for gender equality from the earliest suffrage campaigns to Barbara Castle's fight for equal pay to Harriet Harman's recent legislation on the gender pay gap. Yet the stories of so many women MPs have too often been overlooked in political histories. In this book, Rachel Reeves brings forgotten MPs out of the shadows and looks at the many battles fought by the Women of Westminster, from 1919 to 2019. |
