The Contemporary Parallel Bible

New King James Version, New International Version

By: John R. Kohlenberger (III)

This unique volume displays the parallel texts of a pair of today's most popular evangelical Bible editions. Together, the New King James Version and New International Version represent the two major approaches to modern Bible translation. The New King James Version, an updating of the renowned King James Version, is technically known as a formal equivalent translation (often referred to as "word-for-word"). This means that scholars rendered the Hebrew, Aramaic and koine Greek of the biblical text into English that is as close as possible to its original meaning. The result is a translation that is particularly valuable for careful analysis of the text. The New International Version represents the "thought-for-thought" school of Bible translation (technically known as dynamic or functional equivalent). This method places the priority on the intended meaning of the original vocabulary, adapting it to English syntax and grammar. Such a translation tends to be easier to read and understand. The NKJV and NIV texts are arranged in two columns on each page of the Contemporary Parallel Bible, enabling readers to easily compare the word and phrasing choices made by the scholarly committees that brought these highly regarded translations into being.

Stroke Care

A Practical Manual

By: Rowan Harwood,Farhad Huwez,Dawn Good,Oxford University Press

Stroke is one of the leading causes of long-term severe disability in the developed world. The past few years have seen the emergence of dedicated stroke services in many hospitals in the UK. This on-the-go handbook provides guidance on acute care for junior doctors, specialist nurses and other health professionals working on acute medical admission units, and more detailed practical guidance for those working on specialist stroke units. The handbook follows the pathway of care of a stroke patient from initial diagnosis, through acute care, patient management, long term care and rehabilitation, to outcomes and secondary prevention. It is written in a clear how-to-do-it style with many bullet points and practical guidelines, and is produced in a handy, portable pocket format so it can always be close at hand. The authors have all worked in stroke care units and base their guidelines on the best available evidence and extensive proactical experience. Subjects covered include not only the essential neurological aspects of stroke care, but decision making and terminal care, psycholigical and rehabilitation issues, to name only a few. It should appeal to all those involved in the care of the stroke patient from clinicians, nurses, therapists and rehabilitation specialists.
