Hematology is the sub specialty of internal medicine concerned with disorders of the blood, bone marrow and lymphatic systems. Hematologists are called in for cases of suspected blood disorders when the diagnosis is unclear or specialized medical care is needed. They coordinate total patient care, working, where needed, with surgeons, radiation therapists, gynecologists or other specialists. Not everyone with a blood problem needs a hematologist. Many blood problems are diagnosed and managed by general internists. When special knowledge in diagnosis and treatment is required, the skills of a hematologist are called upon. Treatments may include therapeutic phlebotomy, bone marrow aspiration, core bone marrow biopsy, and chemotherapy or other special therapy. Fundamental to the training of health care providers and physicians interested in hematology and medical oncology is the acquisition of knowledge concerning the basic scientific principles that underlie our understanding of cancer biology.
Over the last three decades there has been a rapid expansion of intensive production of fresh fruit and vegetables in the Mediterranean regions of south and west Europe. Much of this depends on migrating workers for seasonal labour, including from Eastern Europe, North Africa and Latin America. This book is the first to address global agro-migration complexes across the region. It is argued that both intensive agricultural production and related working conditions are highly dynamic. Regional patterns have developed from small-scale family farming to become an industrialized part of the global agri-food system, which increasingly depends on seasonal labour. Simultaneously, consumer demand fo...

Tomaten aus Marokko, Spanien, den Niederlanden - im Supermarktregal liegen sie friedlich nebeneinander. Doch hinter der Hochglanzpräsentation der Obst- und Gemüsetheke verbergen sich Interessenskämpfe mit hohen sozialen Kosten. In diesem Buch blickt Sarah Ruth Sippel nach Marokko und stellt die zunehmende Einbindung des Landes in den Weltmarkt dar. Den verheißungsvollen Exportträumen stehen existenzielle Risiken gegenüber: Während wenige zu global agierenden Exportmanagern aufsteigen, werden viele aus der Landwirtschaft verdrängt. Die Studie zeigt die Bruchzonen der globalen Obst- und Gemüseproduktion auf, die für die Mehrheit der ländlichen Bevölkerung Prekarisierung und neue Abhängigkeiten mit sich bringen.
This book presents a theory of long humorous texts based on a revision and an upgrade of the General Theory of Verbal Humour (GTVH), a decade after its first proposal. The theory is informed by current research in psycholinguistics and cognitive science. It is predicated on the fact that there are humorous mechanisms in long texts that have no counterpart in jokes. The book includes a number of case studies, among them Oscar Wilde's Lord Arthur Savile's Crime and Allais' story Han Rybeck. A ground-breaking discussion of the quantitative distribution of humor in select texts is presented.
