Zusammenfassung: | Whiplash, first described in a medical journal in 1953, now occurs so frequently that in the U.S. alone its annual cost is estimated at between $13 and $18 billion dollars. In Whiplash and Other Useful Illnesses Andrew Malleson contends that whiplash is nothing more than a strain of the neck and, like most other strains, heals in a matter of days or weeks. The fact that up to 10% of all whiplash "victims" are reported as permanently disabled occurs because medical healthcare and legal professionals foster and create illnesses, dangling illusive fortunes in front of would-be claimants. Malleson details the evolution of whiplash from a common, short-lived disorder into a world-wide epidemic that has left millions permanently disabled. He exposes how some medical healthcare and legal professionals prey on the anxieties and greed of their clients. He argues that whiplash is only one of a long list of largely fabricated illnesses and injuries that will drain resources from the health care system. |

In Whiplash and Other Useful Illnesses Andrew Malleson contends that whiplash is nothing more than a strain of the neck and, like most other strains, heals in a matter of days or weeks. The fact that up to 10% of all whiplash "victims" are reported as permanently disabled occurs because medical healthcare and legal professionals foster and create illnesses, dangling illusive fortunes in front of would-be claimants. Malleson details the evolution of whiplash from a common, short-lived disorder into a world-wide epidemic that has left millions permanently disabled. He exposes how some medical healthcare and legal professionals prey on the anxieties and greed of their clients. He argues that whiplash is only one of a long list of largely fabricated illnesses and injuries that will drain resources from the health care system.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="546" ind1=" " ind2=" "><subfield code="a">English.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="0"><subfield code="a">Medical jurisprudence.</subfield><subfield code="0">http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh85082955</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="0"><subfield code="a">Whiplash injuries</subfield><subfield code="x">Treatment.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="0"><subfield code="a">Medical care, Cost of.</subfield><subfield code="0">http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh85082888</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="0"><subfield code="a">Medical jurisprudence</subfield><subfield code="z">Canada.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="0"><subfield code="a">Personal injuries</subfield><subfield code="z">Canada.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="0"><subfield code="a">Medical care, Cost of</subfield><subfield code="z">Canada.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="2"><subfield code="a">Health Care Costs</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="2"><subfield code="a">Jurisprudence</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="2"><subfield code="a">Whiplash Injuries</subfield><subfield code="x">therapy</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="2"><subfield code="a">Forensic Medicine</subfield><subfield code="0">https://id.nlm.nih.gov/mesh/D005554</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="6"><subfield code="a">Médecine légale</subfield><subfield code="z">Canada.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="6"><subfield code="a">Syndrome cervical traumatique</subfield><subfield code="x">Traitement</subfield><subfield code="z">Canada.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="6"><subfield code="a">Dommage corporel</subfield><subfield code="z">Canada.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="6"><subfield code="a">Soins médicaux</subfield><subfield code="x">Coût</subfield><subfield code="z">Canada.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="6"><subfield code="a">Médecine légale.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="6"><subfield code="a">Syndrome cervical traumatique</subfield><subfield code="x">Traitement.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="6"><subfield code="a">Soins médicaux</subfield><subfield code="x">Coût.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">forensic medicine.</subfield><subfield code="2">aat</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">MEDICAL</subfield><subfield code="x">Forensic Medicine.</subfield><subfield code="2">bisacsh</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">MEDICAL</subfield><subfield code="x">Health Care Delivery.</subfield><subfield code="2">bisacsh</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">Personal injuries</subfield><subfield code="2">fast</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">Medical jurisprudence</subfield><subfield code="2">fast</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">Medical care, Cost of</subfield><subfield code="2">fast</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="651" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">Canada</subfield><subfield code="2">fast</subfield><subfield code="1">https://id.oclc.org/worldcat/entity/E39PBJkMHVW4rfVXPrhVP4VwG3</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">M̌decine ľgale</subfield><subfield code="z">Canada.</subfield><subfield code="2">rvm</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">Soins médicaux</subfield><subfield code="x">Coût</subfield><subfield code="z">Canada.</subfield><subfield code="2">rvm</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="776" ind1="0" ind2="8"><subfield code="i">Print version:</subfield><subfield code="a">Malleson, Andrew.</subfield><subfield code="t">Whiplash and other useful illnesses.</subfield><subfield code="d">Montréal : Ithaca : McGill-Queen's University Press, ©2002</subfield><subfield code="z">0773523332</subfield><subfield code="w">(OCoLC)49044063</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="830" ind1=" " ind2="0"><subfield code="a">CEL -
