This book addresses global concerns about microbial resistance. Combining historical case studies and first-hand practitioner accounts, it offers insights beyond current literature. Contributions from leading scholars, practitioners and policy makers explore outbreaks of MRSA and compare infection control measures in different case-study contexts.

With wit, insight, and earthy wisdom, a book that explores the nature of the self, the relationship between the brain and the heart, the gendering of our physical and emotional selves, and the struggle to accommodate mind and body, emotions and experience.

The heart is the most symbolic organ of the human body, but it is the brain that is now commonly associated with emotion. Why then do emotional meanings of the heart linger? Matters of the Heart traces how emotions have been understood historically, addressing the shifting relationship from heart to brain as competing centres of emotion.
