Sommario/riassunto

Perioperative care practices worldwide are in the midst of a seeing change with the implementation of multidisciplinary processes that improve surgical outcomes through (1) better patient education, engagement, and participation; (2) enhanced pre-operative, intra-operative, and post-operative care bundles; and (3) interactive audit programs that provide feedback to the surgical team. These improved outcomes include reductions in the frequency and severity of complications and improved throughput, which ultimately reduce operative stress. Practices in theatre as well as ward are becoming more collaborative and evidence-driven.This book is best utilized by perioperative care team members engaged in quality improvement, collaborative practice, and application of innovations in surgical care.

Sommario/riassunto

Using examples from different historical contexts, this book examines the relationship between class, nationalism, modernity and the agrarian myth. Essentializing rural identity, traditional culture and quotidian resistance, both aristocratic/plebeian and pastoral/Darwinian forms of agrarian myth discourse inform struggles waged 'from above' and 'from below', surfacing in peasant movements, film and travel writing. Film depictions of royalty, landowner and colonizer as disempowered, ‘ordinary’ or well-disposed towards ‘those below’, whose interests they share, underwrite populism and nationalism. Although these ideologies replaced the cosmopolitanism of the Grand Tour, twentieth century travel literature continued to reflect a fear of vanishing rural ‘otherness’



abroad, combined with the arrival there of the mass tourist, the plebeian from home.
