3) Alcohol-What It Is, What It Does

This book is about alcohol, not about alcoholism. It is a straightforward, uncomplicated account of a widely used drug-a much needed primer on the use and abuse of alcohol. Knowledge of what alcohol does to the mind and body helps readers to think intelligently about their options when "a drink" means an alcoholic beverage.

Authors: Judith S. Seixas
Publishers: Greenwillow Books
Date of Publication: 1977

4) Sick And Tired - Healing The Illnesses Doctors Cannot Cure

The book creates a vision of a future health care system where illness is viewed not only in terms of physical malfunction but also as the meaningful reaction of the whole person - mind, body and soul - to changes in their social and physical environment. The challenge of this book is to develop a more meaningful health strategy for a rapidly changing world.

Authors: Dr. Nick Read
Publishers: Weidenfeld & Nicolson
Date of Publication: 2005

5) Law and the Doctor

The book views the changing interface between law and medicine. It analyses the types of complaints made in the courts against different specialists, and the decisions of the courts. The aim is to learn lessons from the cases and suggest actions to forestall such unhappy occurrences. This book is addressed both to the doctors and the common citizen so that they could understand the role of each other and re-establish proper rapport and trust.

6) Fire Your Shrink - Do-It-Yourself Strategies For Changing Your Life And Everyone In It

This book spreads hope. It is not firing anyone, but about giving up ineffective methods of problem-solving and finding effective ones. It is concise, easy to read, and full of practical solutions to life's dilemmas.
