  1. Homiletik und Exegese

    Die evangelische Predigt rekurriert im Zuge ihrer bibeltextlichen Orientierung auf Inhalte, die wiederum selbst innerhalb verschiedener Kontexte und der Tradition zu lesen sind. Sich diesen Inhalten wissenschaftlich-theologisch und exegetisch fundiert allsonntäglich auf der Kanzel zu nähern, stellt eine zentrale Herausforderung des Predigtamtes dar. Dies gilt insbesondere für traditionsreiche Predigttexte, wie die Perikopen um Gal 2,16 und Röm 3,28. Die Autorin zeigt in einer breit angelegten Predigtanalyse Fallstricke und Potenziale des Zusammenspiels von Text, Tradition und Predigt auf und eröffnet Wege, wie diesen Herausforderungen begegnet werden kann. Ausgehend von einem ausführlichen exegetischen Kommentar, bildet der Gewinn exegetischer Sondierung, Aufklärung und Vertiefung im Kontext homiletischer Reflexion den Fluchtpunkt der Untersuchung. Die Arbeit bietet ferner eine Sensibilisierung und Ergänzung für die gegenwärtige Predigt über die Rechtfertigung und ist damit an der Schnittstelle zweier zentraler protestantischer Propria zu verorten: der Lehre von der Rechtfertigung und der biblisch fundierten Predigt. [Homiletics and Exegesis. Concepts of Justification in Contemporary Protestant Sermons] The Protestant sermon refers to biblical contents which can only be understood within their context and tradition. Ministry faces a major challenge in interpreting these contents weekly in a theologically and exegetically responsible way. This challenge applies particularly to biblical texts with a prominent position in Protestant tradition, such as the pericopes around Gal 2:16 and Rom 3:28. The author conducts a thorough analysis of 235 sermons, elaborating the pitfalls and benefits resulting from the interplay of text, tradition and sermon, and offers potential solutions to these challenges. Starting with an extensive exegetical commentary, this work explores and elucidates the biblical texts on justification from different exegetical and homiletical perspectives. Thus, it can be located between two crucial characteristics of Protestant religiosity: the doctrine of justification and the biblically-oriented sermon.

  6. Oral and Intravenous Bisphosphonate–Induced Osteonecrosis of the Jaws

    While many clinicians currently recognize that bisphosphonate usage is associated with osteonecrosis of the jaws, this book establishes the causal relationship between the two, explaining the biologic modes of action that enable bisphosphonates taken both orally and intravenously to induce osteonecrosis of the jaws. Like the first edition, it presents definitive treatment protocols for patients who present at each stage in the progression of osteonecrosis, but this new edition also includes a simplified staging system and information about the serum CTX test for oral bisphosphonate cases. In addition, several management principles and surgical techniques are provided, along with new data on osteopenia and osteoporosis, the conditions for which bisphosphonates are primarily prescribed. The book offers a simple method for predicting risk as well as crucial recommendations for preventing the disease from developing when bisphosphonate therapy is indicated. Comprehensive case histories related to both oral and intravenous bisphosphonates provide direct guidance in managing patients spanning the full presentation spectrum. A must-have for the student and practicing clinician alike.

  7. Dentistry for Kids

    The practice of pediatric dentistry requires a broad knowledge of dentistry, orthodontics, nutritional sciences, and last but not least, psychology. The goal is to enable our young patients to live with the healthiest teeth possible, and this involves understanding how to embrace the opportunity, challenge, and responsibility of ensuring an ideal start for even the tiniest of our patients. This book presents the fundamentals of pediatric dentistry and explains how to incorporate them into an existing dental practice. Because parents are a crucial part of the equation, particular focus is given to educating and managing parents to be the best advocate for their children's oral health. While the book is a useful reference for everyday practice in terms of examination, diagnostics, and findings, it goes further to include tips on how to create a child-friendly environment, how to communicate with young patients, and how to handle difficult situations with uncooperative patients or parents. The second half of the book is given over to treatment considerations, spanning from preventive treatment like fluorides and sealants to filling and crown therapy. This final chapter also includes sections on antibiotic use, managing trauma, sedation, and other particular challenges in everyday practice. This book is an essential resource for anyone working with kids in dentistry.
