#AdventuresInHumanBeing by Gavin Francis

如果要以一句話來總結這本書,我想它應該可以說是一本「人體旅遊文學」。
作者是一名蘇格蘭的家庭醫師,曾經接受神經外科、急診科、小兒科、婦產科、家庭醫學科的訓練(不知道為什麼他換那麼多科別,書裡沒說)。同時,他的史地和文學造詣也相當高,並曾經到很多國家長住。這樣的背景,造就了這本特別的人體散文集。
書中的18篇散文,編排上雖然是按照從頭到腳的順序,但實際上章節之間沒有關聯,所以要從哪一篇讀起都無所謂。Francis醫師常常以臨床案例作為引子貫穿全文,再將歷史、文學、甚至神學裡有關這個身體部位的記載交織其中。他極為博學,但字裡行間完全感覺不到造作與賣弄,反而像是跟著一位親切的導遊穿梭在名為人體的大工廠裡,認識它的歷史、它的運作、它的美麗。

This is a thought-provoking collection of essays on the human body, written by a Scottish general practitioner with a background in neurosurgery, emergency medicine, pediatrics, OB/GYN, and family medicine (how he managed to train in so many specialties is beyond me and also beyond the scope of this review). Dr. Francis seems to be a renaissance man of sorts, well-read in history, geography, literature, and even theology. His background makes this book a great read for medical professionals and laypeople alike, as every reader is likely to learn something new.
This book is divided into 18 essays, each focusing on a specific body part. Dr. Francis often starts each chapter with a clinical case. Throughout the chapter he adds in tidbits from Descartes to Disney, wandering off sometimes to describe how Pontus Pilate probably crucified Jesus through his wrist and not his hand. It’s like going on a city tour of the human body with a funny and knowledgeable guide. Highly recommended.

scope醫學 在 貓行為獸醫師林子軒醫師與貓男孩 Facebook 的最佳解答
<
非常感謝這段時間眾多朋友的大力協助,才能促成我完成這件事,也非常感激IAABC的執行長—Marjie Alonso願意給我們這個機會,讓我們未來能把IAABC更多正確、有系統的動物行為知識及教育活動帶進台灣,讓台灣在亞洲有機會成為一個動物福利的指標國家。
在動物行為的相關議題當中,IAABC不只極具公信力及影響力,更在各國都培訓出許多優秀的動物工作者。自從我在2013年加入IAABC,並同時獲得該組織CCBC的認證後,我在獸醫的工作便轉型為專業的貓行為諮詢醫師,這項工作有別於一般的獸醫臨床門診及寵物訓練。在我面對貓的行為問題時,必須以醫學及行為科學為背景,才能細膩地去釐清問題背後的癥結點,並有效地去解決問題。隨著時間過去,我發現自己能做的事情還是非常有限。
除了法律,真正要能有效預防並解決不當的對待及虐待,就是透過正確的教育。唯有透過教育,才能真的解決人與動物之間的問題;唯有正確的知識,也才能真的提升動物的福利水平。
隨著IAABC Taiwan Division的成立,目前第一階段的規劃是,IAABC官網會為台灣民眾開立一區以繁體中文為主的專屬頁面及臉書粉絲專頁,在上面跟大家同步分享最新的動物行為知識及相關活動,有興趣的朋友可以密切注意本粉絲團動態,或是到IAABC的官網逛逛。
A big thank you to all those who worked to make today possible, and my sincere gratitude to IAABC Executive Director, Marjie Alonso, who gave us this unique opportunity to introduce scientific and systematic knowledge about animal behavior and corresponding educational system into Taiwan, enabling us to be a front runner in animal welfare among Asian countries.
In the field of animal behavior, the IAABC is not only widely renowned but also highly influential, with numerous animal consultants trained worldwide. Since personally joining the IAABC in 2013, I received CCBC certification, and it later turned my veterinary practice into full-time cat behavior consulting. This new task is beyond the scope of conventional clinical veterinary medicine or pet training, as an array of general medicine and behavior science is also needed. But even with all that, you still have to be subtle and considerate to identify a cause and possibly find a solution. That’s why the more I did it, the more I felt lacking.
Besides law, the true solution to mistreatment and abuse of animals still lies in education. Only through proper education, we can know how to co-exist with animals in harmony, and only genuine knowledge can bring about greater level of animal welfare.
The first initiative of IAABC Taiwan Division is to build a Mandarin section on IAABC website dedicated to Taiwanese viewers and a Facebook Fan Page, where the latest knowledge about animal behavior and event feeds can be found. Please press Like and follow the news feed. And don’t forget to visit IAABC website.
