Jason Lee – författare

When Christian healthcare professionals engage in their practice, they serve people who are hurting, ill, and in positions of vulnerability—from newborn infants to people in their last days of life. As a group, Christian healthcare professionals serve on the frontlines of spiritual and temporal warfare where theology and praxis intersect. In Scripture and Scrubs: A Christian Calling to Healthcare, social work professor Michael E. Sherr, dean of nursing Angelia M. Mickle, and theologian Jason K. Lee partner together to provide Christian healthcare professionals with tangible guidance and scriptural encouragement in their chosen vocation. Part One investigates the role of the healthcare professional as an agent of common grace and a frontline worker for the God of the Bible. Part Two then unpacks specific character traits of the Christian healthcare professional and ends with concrete tips for thriving amid the many challenges of healthcare service.

Useful as a textbook for students pursuing degrees in medicine, nursing, pharmacy, psychology, social work, and allied health fields, each chapter provides real-life scenarios that can be used as case studies. Additionally, chapters include questions for further reflection or classroom discussion. Grounded in both theological insights and the experiences of longtime healthcare professionals, Scripture and Scrubs provides a Christian vision of healthcare practice that will encourage weary professionals and inspire students preparing to enter their respective areas of service.

Microorganisms are ubiquitously present in petroleum reservoirs and the facilities that produce them. Pipelines, vessels, and other equipment used in upstream oil and gas operations provide a vast and predominantly anoxic environment for microorganisms to thrive. The biggest technical challenge resulting from microbial activity in these engineered environments is the impact on materials integrity. Oilfield microorganisms can affect materials integrity profoundly through a multitude of elusive (bio)chemical mechanisms, collectively referred to as microbiologically influenced corrosion (MIC). MIC is estimated to account for 20 to 30% of all corrosion-related costs in the oil and gas industry.

This book is intended as a comprehensive reference for integrity engineers, production chemists, oilfield microbiologists, and scientists working in the field of petroleum microbiology or corrosion. Exhaustively researched by leaders from both industry and academia, this book discusses the latest technological and scientific advances as well as relevant case studies to convey to readers an understanding of MIC and its effective management.
