Time and budget constraints have severely and negatively altered how interns and residents in surgery are trained. Information that was formerly conveyed with much care and austerity is now simply expected to be known. The Portable Surgical Mentor helps bridge that information gap by providing a guide to the day-to-day processes of the intern and resident in surgery and prepares trainees to not only survive but to thrive in this intense environment.

Fundamentals of Forensic Anthropology, 2006

(Advances in Human Biology)

Linda L. Klepinger

ISBN-10: 0471210064

ISBN-13: 978-0471210061

Wiley-Liss

 

 

 

 

 

This text is the first of its level written in more than twenty years. It serves as a summary and guide to the core material that needs to be mastered and evaluated for the practice of forensic anthropology.

The text is divided into three parts that collectively provide a solid base in theory and methodology:

 

• Part One, "Background Setting for Forensic Anthropology," introduces the field and discusses the role of forensic anthropology in historic context.
• Part Two, "Towards Personal Identification," discusses initial assessments of skeletal remains; determining sex, age, ancestral background, and stature; and skeletal markers of activity and life history.
• Part Three, "Principal Anthropological Roles in Medical-Legal Investigation," examines trauma; the postmortem period; professionalism, ethics, and the expert witness; and genetics and DNA.

The critical and evaluative approach to the primary literature stresses the inherent biological constraints on degrees of precision and certainty, and cautions about potential pitfalls. The practical focus, coupled with theoretical basics, make Fundamentals of Forensic Anthropology ideal for upper-level undergraduates and graduate students in biological anthropology as well as forensic scientists in allied fields of medical-legal investigation.

Therapy of Digestive Disorders, 2nd ed. 2006

Therapy of Digestive Disorders

M. Michael Wolfe, Gary L. Davis, Francis A. Farraye, Ralph Giannella

ISBN-10: 1416003177

ISBN-13: 978-1416003175

Saunders

With almost 100 authors and 68 chapters, this textbook provides useful information on the treatment of digestive disorders, citations of the relevant literature, and coverage of controversial issues. General physicians and also those with a particular interest in gastroenterology and hepatology will find the book helpful. My recommendation is to ignore the subtitle. Instead of being viewed as a companion to the excellent Sleisenger and Fordtran's Gastrointestinal and Liver Disease, this book could be considered a less voluminous and less expensive alternative for readers interested mainly in the treatment of digestive disorders.

Mastering Revision Rhinoplasty, 1st ed. 2006

Mastering Revision Rhinoplasty, 2006

Michael Evan Sachs

ISBN-10: 0387989048

ISBN-13: 978-0387989044

Springer

With thousands of primary and secondary cases, Michael Evan Sachs has devoted his career to perfecting the art and science of rhinoplasty in general, and revision rhinoplasty in particular. Whether to improve form or function of a previous surgery – or just to ensure the best possible result the first time – this beautifully illustrated atlas has much to offer both experienced and beginning surgeons. This atlas illustrates not only how to repair problems, but also how to modify and refine basic surgical technique in order to minimize the incidence of failed procedures. Additionally, emphasis is placed on recognizing problems early. Although it is impossible for all primary rhinoplasties to turn out successfully, a large percentage of problems that lead to failed procedures can actually be identified and repaired immediately. By mastering the techniques in this book, a primary revision can be performed intraoperatively during the first procedure, thereby obviating the need for a secondary revisional surgery.

(Chemical Immunology)

ISBN-13: 978-3805579742

Karger

The inverse correlation between allergic diseases and helminth infections has been debated for over 30 years. It was initially assumed that the underlying mechanism is an imbalance between Th1 and Th2 responses that, as a result of reduced exposure to Th1-inducing infectious pathogens, has tipped to allergic Th2 responses. It has only recently been clearly demonstrated that helminth infections have negative effects on allergic disease manifestation. This was shown to be consistent with the activity of regulatory cell populations, which control the effector mechanisms of both Th1 and Th2.In this book, international experts in the field discuss the various roles of the cell populations involved in allergic reactions and helminth infections such as regulatory T and B cells, natural killer T cells, mast cells and basophils. Essential for specialists and students in the field, the contributions to this volume pave the way to new directions of research for the successful immunization against helminths and the prevention of inflammatory responses in allergic and autoimmune diseases.

Tropical Infectious Diseases: Principles, Pathogens & Practice, 2nd ed. 2006

Tropical Infectious Diseases: Principles, Pathogens &; Practice

Richard L. Guerrant, David H. Walker, Peter F. Weller

ISBN-10: 044306668X

ISBN-13: 978-0443066689

Churchill Livingstone

Tropical Infectious Diseases, now thankfully published in two volumes totalling nearly 1800 pages, is a superb collection of well-written, well-organised, and authoritative chapters that are as up to date as possible. Almost every chapter is outstanding and some are classics in their own right. There are new and refreshing contributions on social and cultural fators in tropical medicine; on migrant, immigrant, and refugee health; and on tropical infectious diseases in pregnancy. Many of the revised chapters are excellent, particularly those on malaria, respiratory infections, cholera, heaptitis and neurologic disease and those collected in the last of the volumes' three sections, "Practice: Approach to the Patient in the Tropics." This section and the other two - "Principles and General Considerations" and "Pathogens" - are clear and easy to navigate, and the accompanying CD-ROM is invaluable when one is travelling. For a textbook of this size, with more than 200 contributors, there is remarkably little overlap between chapters. The authors represent a who's who of experts on modern tropical infectious diseases, and the editors must have used extraordinary powers of persuasion to get this eclectic group to keep a uniform format and meet deadlines.
