Voices of Conflict; Voices of Healing

A Collection of Articles by a Much-Loved Philadelphia Inquirer Columnist

By: Daniel H. Gottlieb

Compassionate, Wise, Insightful. These are words frequently used to describe Dan Gottlieb's bimonthly column in the Philadelphia Inquirer. This psychologist and host of critically acclaimed "Voices in the Family", heard locally on public radio, has been offering his perspective and gentle guidance to readers for nearly a decade. His columns are scientifically grounded, sometimes deeply personal and always touching. In addition to responding to readers "Dear Dr. Dan" letters, Gottlieb sometimes talks about his life as a quadriplegic, father, grandfather and son of his own 88-year-old father. In that process, he uses of his own tragedies and triumphs to help us all understand more about what it means to be human. These are some of his most vibrant and touching columns covering areas of life important to all of us. The book opens with an exploration of some of today's issues such as stepfamilies, happiness, and the anxiety of living in today's world. He also covers relationships, children, and coping with difficult emotions. His book continues with some poignant columns about loss and concludes with several columns that help us understand and celebrate the human spirit.

Change of Heart

Unraveling the Mysteries of Cardiovascular Disease

By: Daniel Levy, M.D.,Susan Brink

A Change of Heart is a detailed account of the revolutionary Framingham Heart study — which, over the years, has provided conclusive evidence that cardiovascular disease is largely the result of measurable and modifiable risk factors. First begun in 1948, not long after Franklin Delano Roosevelt succumbed to a massive stroke, the study of over 5,000 citizens of Framingham, Massachusetts, changed the course of medical history. The lessons learned in Framingham allow each of us to control our risk of heart disease and stroke, two of the leading causes of death in the United States. Here is a clear-eyed and intriguing assessment of the achievements of this study and of its continuing importance to our health today.

Building Healthy Communities Through Medical-Religious Partnerships

By: Richard G. Bennett,W. Daniel Hale

Because health care works best when patients assume greater responsibility for their own health, community outreach and patient education have taken on increased importance. Building Healthy Communities through Medical-Religious Partnerships describes an innovative approach to the development of community-based health education and patient advocacy programs targeted at the prevention and management of disease. Partnerships between health systems and religious congregations, the authors show, can be remarkably successful at bringing appropriate care to people who are often difficult to serve. The book offers valuable guidance for religious and medical leaders interested in developing programs in their congregations and communities. It includes practical and accessible information for establishing health education programs, identifies additional resources that can be obtained from local and national organizations, and discusses a range of medical topics. It also outlines how to train volunteers to assist others in navigating our complex health system. This revised and expanded edition of Building Healthy Communities through Medical-Religious Partnerships includes several new chapters along with descriptions of five medical-religious partnership models. Special attention is given to the challenges and opportunities presented by our aging and increasingly diverse population.
