A touching, sensitive book--will help you be a better person (1999-09-11)

It takes a special person to do and compile this many nice things! Dr. Hatcher's sensitivity, humor, and candor allow him to understand human nature and connect with people in a way that is becoming a lost art. These thoughtful suggestions truly helped me consider the nice things that I do--and how I would like to do more of them!

well done concise summary of family planning (1999-09-22)

Bob Hatcher has done it again. This time he and his staff have compressed all you need to know about counselling for, and prescribing contraception in one pocket sized, easy to use book, While his larger and longer book is the standard in the field, it is too big to carry around with you as you are seeing patients. This small handbook gets around that problem and makes it easy for clinicians to look things up just when then need to know them. I recommend it heartily for those clinicians who provide reproductive health services.

Excellent pocket guide for clinicians in family planning (1999-09-21)

This is an excellent and handy reference for novice and experienced clinicians who are working in women's health care. Not only does it provide quick references for aspects of family planning methods, it also has some very helpful guidance on women's health and primary care. I use it as an adjunct in case methodology for teaching graduate nurse-midwifery students.

Excellent guide; good for health providers & smart consumers (1999-09-15)

Dr. Bob Hatcher has done it again; identified a need in the field of contraception and filled it. This pocket-sized guide will be useful for medical students, Ob/Gyn residents, primary care physicians, nurses, and other health professionals who'd like to have definitive contraceptive information they can just carry in their pocket.

It's also a useful guide for any smart consumer who'd like to make better decisions about her own contraceptive choices.

The guide is definitive, and well-worth the small cost of admission!

Helpful hormonal contraceptive managment reference (2009-12-19)

At some point I suppose the title of this handy little handbook will have to change because it no longer provides information about oral contraceptives only. Still the handy center index and helpful content. I've relied on this reference since it was firt available and especially appreciate the tables describing the biological activity of oral contraceptives. Makes it easier to switch pills when patients develop side effects to the ones they're using. And the information about non-oral products like injected and inserted contraceptives is a good addition.

Excellent resource (2009-04-10)

I've used this book before in my 8 years of practice as a Nurse Practioner. Invaluable.

Must have reference for practice (2008-01-04)

I have used this book since 1992, both as a student and as a provider. My past editions have been well thumbed through and open imediately to the charts I used most. It is invaluable in the decision making process of changing pills or starting OCPs. The ability to safely manage side effects and fine tune women's health is found in this book. I highly recommend this to the student and experienced practitioner. Well worth the money, many times over. Not sure I would want it in a PDA format.

Essential tool. (2006-12-11)

I daily use this handbook in my practice and have bought every edition since the 7th. Every question is answered. Allows sense to be made of oral contraceptive choice and adjustment without relying on big pharma's propaganda.

Managing Contraceptive Patient (2005-09-08)

Consistent in it's format, easy to use,concise and up to date. Recommended to all medical personnel managing patients on oral contraceptives. I have purchased the last three editions over the last 7 years and have not been disappointed.

Managing Uncertainty: Ethnographic Studies Of Illness, Risk And The Struggle For Control

Publisher: Museum Tusculanum Press
Publication date: 2005-01
ISBN: 8772899638
Pages: 287
Price: $52.00

The overall focus of this book is the ways humans deal with life conditions, with destiny, uncertainty and misfortune -- how we try to control the risks of living through medicines, technologies and magic. When dealing with questions of health and illness rational solutions and meaningful explanations may be hard to find, and treatment efforts are often guided just as much by hope as by rational choice. Evaluating the risks of illness is just one of a number of ways in which human beings attempt to exert some sense of control over their lives. New methods of testing for ills and new developments in, for example, genetic screening and in vitro fertilisation combined with the growing demands of well-informed patients seem to have turned concern from the actual problems of specific diseases toward controlling life and the risks of living in general. The chapters of this book reflect a common effort to transgress the limits of the medical by drawing on a fundamental concern with the logic of social and cultural practice. The book represents a de-medicalization of medical anthropology and a return to some of the classic themes in anthropology but with a different approach, emphasizing subjectivity, intentionality and agency.

Excellent reference book (2005-01-04)

I purchase the newest edition every year. It is concise, logically laid out, and meets my needs as a busy nurse working in college health. My only complaint is the small print, becoming more of an issue the older I get! Hee hee! But hey, that's what glasses are for!
