Health Care in Canada examines the challenges faced by the Canadian health care system, a subject of much public debate. In this book Katherine Fierlbeck provides an in-depth discussion of how health care decisions are shaped by politics and why there is so much disagreement over how to fix the system. Many Canadians point to health care as a source of national pride; others are highly critical of the system's shortcomings and call for major reform. Yet meaningful debate cannot occur without an understanding of how the system actually operates. In this overview, Fierlbeck outlines the basic framework of the health care system with reference to specific areas such as administration and governance, public health, human resources, drugs and drug policy, and mental health. She also discusses alternative models in other countries such as Britain, the United States, and France. As health care becomes increasingly complex, it is crucial that Canadians have a solid grasp of the main issues within both the policy and political environments. With its balanced and accessible assessment of the main political and theoretical debates, Health Care in Canada is an essential guide for anyone with a stake in Canada's health system.

Created. Cared For. Called. Equipped. Such lofty thoughts! Yet, try as she might, Dora struggled to embrace them. Mattie, the man she adores, had clearly received a calling from God, but her? Dora wasn’t so sure. Mattie vowed that God had commissioned her also, but to what, he could not say. Perhaps he was mistaken. Besides, how was she supposed to fulfill a calling if she didn’t know what it was? Inspired by the life of Dora Farncomb (1863-1938), The Light Keeper is the story of one woman’s journey to identify and embrace the vocation to which God has called her. It is sure to challenge and encourage all who desire to respond to God’s call in their own lives despite the cost it might exact. Join Dora as she seeks to identify and fulfill the mission God has given her as Keeper of the Light. The unimaginable hardships she faces along the way would stretch anyone’s faith, yet despite the suffering they beget, she perseveres by clinging to the love of her Lord and resting in the reality of His presence, secure in the knowledge that she belongs to Him.

This book presents the reader with an understanding of the role played by matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) in the normal and diseased central nervous system (CNS). These enzymes may be important to brain development, and may also contribute to tissue destruction, which is observed with inflammatory and degenerative conditions of the brain. The book provides a background on the biology of MMPs, and on the stimuli and conditions that are linked to an increase in their production and activity. It describes the targets of MMPs, which include matrix proteins such as collagen, soluble cytokines and chemokines, and cell surface receptors. Studies implicating MMPs in neuronal process outgrowth and cell migration in CNS development are covered. The book also touches on studies suggesting that, in certain situations, dysregulated MMP activity and/or production may be critical to blood-brain barrier breakdown and neuronal damage./a
