    Summary: This pocket-sized, quick-access guide gives nurses crucial information they need to understand, identify, and effectively counter incivility, bullying, and violence in all nursing settings. Viewing nurse bullying as an institutional problem, this text expounds upon the American Nurses Association (ANA) position statement "Incivility, Bullying, and Workplace Violence" and includes definitions and statistics about nurse bullying and guidance on what nurses at any level can do when faced with a bully. Delivered in an easy-to-read, bulleted format, this resource covers all aspects of the problem, explores why nurses bully each other, and discusses and quantifies the cost and impact of bullying on individuals, the workplace, and the broader health care system. Four institutional case study chapters delineate the different forms bullying can take and provide advice on how to handle them, and a "bully-proofing" chapter offers such useful tools as a bullying checklist and a guide to "de-toxifying" the workplace, as well as an explanation of the ANA Code of Ethics as it relates to bullying. Key Features: Addresses all facets of nurse bullying, from origins and manifestations to evidence-based interventions and prevention strategies; Based on the hallmark ANA document "Incivility, Bullying, and Workplace Violence"; Contains 10 instructive case studies depicting common bullying scenarios; Proivdes a wealth of anti-bullying resources for use in all nursing settings. -- from back cover.

    Concha Delgado-Gaitan and Henry Trueba.
    Summary: Delgado-Gaitan and Trueba examine the way that the first generation of Hispano children were reared by immigrant parents in one community. The children's transition from novices in the US system, to more experienced participants requires drastic cultural and social change. Often the transition represents a change from a rural home environment to an advanced technological society, where the acquisition of new cultural knowledge, new language and new values, varies largely according to the families' socio-economic, political, and educational opportunities. To make this adjustment, families, (especially children), must have high motivation and clear rewards. However, the children of such communities are able to draw upon their own rich cultural and linguistic values (ethnic loyalty, collective spirit, respect for elders, commitment to hard work, interaction strategies and the organization of discourse) to empower themselves in the struggle to acquire democratic values, freedom, education and economic opportunities.

    Renal transplantation in the face of circulating anti-glomerular basement membrane (GBM) antibody can lead to recurrent glomerulonephritis. The severity of the recurrence may be related to the level of antibody present at the time of transplantation. We describe a patient with Goodpasture's Syndrome and moderate circulating anti-GBM antibody activity who received a renal transplant, followed by plasmapheresis and immunosuppression. The graft has functioned well for almost two years associated with a continued reduction in levels of circulating anti-GBM antibody.
