ThinkER equips emergency medicine residents with the tools they need to succeed where it matters most-at the bedside. Interactive and practical, the book is structured in two parts: the first section imparts the essential skills needed to excel in the Emergency Department, while the second section provides immersive case-based learning. Through realistic scenarios, readers are challenged to think critically, communicate clearly, and document effectively, with examples provided for review. The book trains readers in the cognitive framework unique to emergency care, where uncertainty, urgency, and limited information are commonplace. It also delves into the 'hidden curriculum' of Emergency Medicine: how to deliver bad news, collaborate with consultants, manage difficult nurses, and avoid communication breakdowns that lead to burnout. Helping to build the mindset and communication skills that distinguish great physicians early in their careers, this book is ideal for first-year residents, EMPA students, and medical students.

Career Development in the Schools describes a dynamic process that continues to evolve in its rationale and practice. In many schools and in a variety of scholarly writings, the status of career development is controversial. Some observers assert that career development should be seen as a by-product of all of the knowledge and activities that are incorporated in the educational experience. In this view, career development tends to be seen as a random process that happens in a natural, almost magical way, without specific direction or structured form. However, most career theorists would argue that the career development of students should be a major mission of the school—a process too important to be only a by-product of scattered learning and activities that are inherently uneven from student to student. The prevailing contemporary perspective contends that career development in the schools should be planned, have its own content derived from research and theory, be systematically executed, and use methods that are relevant to the developmental levels of students throughout elementary, middle, and senior high schools. To further such ends, several national models of content and practice have been formulated by the American School Counselor Association, the National Career Development Revised Guidance Project, and by other organizations to identify the components, competencies, and outcomes that students of different ages and aspirations need to acquire as they grow in maturity. Several of these models are discussed at length in the various chapters of this book.

This volume will examine the historical emergence of the concept of career including early ideas about the meaning and role of work and how it fits with life. The concept of career development is of relatively recent origin. It was not until the early 20th Century that serious attention was given to the role of work and career as it applied to the common man. While the concept of “vocation” has historical roots that date back centuries, vocation (or calling) was typically only applied to the professions of the clergy, law and medicine. These individuals had careers, while the common man had a job. Perhaps the most significant event that changed both the labor market and the associated socio-cultural values about work was the 2nd World War. The technological advances that were brought about by the war were profound in terms of changing the nature of work, and the war brought about a significant change in the gender makeup of our labor force as millions of women entered the labor market to support the war effort. The combined effects of technology, a radical new value system, and a burgeoning economy changed everything.
