Hodge Podge

Autor Sheldon Cohen
en Limba Engleză Paperback
."He was struck by the excellent condition of some of the buildings in spite of their age. He thought of the ever increasing frailty of the building's occupants who would all soon die of neglect and starvation brought about by man's inhumanity to man. Old memories of his family and friends from his youth surfaced. He saw himself as a child running down these very streets. He had no regrets except for the fact that he would not live to see the eventual destruction of the evil that had so altered their lives and threatened their very existence. But he knew he would know nevertheless. He lived a good life. He was content. It was a cloudy day, but just before he reached the Judenrat, the sun broke through the clouds and illuminated his path." -From 'Let Us Die with the Philistines"

Notă biografică

A graduate of the University of Illinois College of Medicine, Sheldon Cohen has practiced internal medicine and served as the medical director of three organizations: Alexian Brother's Medical Center of Northwest Suburban Chicago, Cigna Health plan of Illinois, and Humanacare Plus of Illinois. The author taught internal medicine and physical diagnosis to medical students from Loyola University Stritch School of Medicine and the Chicago Medical School. Recognizing the fact that busy physicians are pressed for time and thus often fail to capture a thorough medical history, the author developed one of the first computerized medical history systems for private practice and wrote a paper on his experience with 1500 patients who utilized the system. This was one of the early efforts in promoting electronic health records, a work in progress to this day. Serving as a consultant for Joint Commission Resources of the Joint Commission on Accreditation of Healthcare Organizations, the author did quality consultations at hospitals in the United States, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, Copenhagen, Denmark, and served as a consultant to the Ministry of Health in Ukraine, assisting them in the development of a hospital accrediting body. Dr. Cohen is the author of 36 books.
