A Mixture of Metals
Born in Society after the War of Restitution, investigating the faceless forces that control him, Simora experiences the Southland, a passionate affair with 'barbarian' Mary, and the Colony gulag. Finally, in the Settlement of the Guardians, he discovers why his mother disappeared. But other questions remain, including Mary's fate ...(The text has suggested issues for book club discussions.)
The Drone Incident
When Al Qaeda believes their repeated failure to replicate 9/11 is due to eavesdropping by the NSA, they devise a diabolical scheme to destroy the agency by crashing a plane into it. The Sleeper Cell Drone chronicles a few hours of a charter flight, carrying an NFL football team, bound for Washington D.C. with an autopilot that takes control of the plane from the flight crew. They communicate with Boeing's autopilot experts to create a plan requiring the temporary suspension of all power to deactivate the automatic pilot by disabling the GPS. Time is critical before fighter jets from Andrews Air Force base shoot it down, or the autopilot's program takes the plane directly into the center of a violent electrical storm.
Developing Insights in Cartilage Repair
This comprehensive book discusses cartilage repair and all its aspects. These aspects vary from basic insights in cartilage biology and regeneration via MRI, to results of existing cartilage repair techniques and upcoming novel approaches. Fundamental cartilage biology is the topic covered within the first chapters of the book. These chapters not only provide an insight in healthy, damaged and regenerative cartilage but also describe developments in gene therapy and methods to enhance chondrogenesis of stemcells and prevent hypertophic differentiation. There is a huge progress in the possibilities of MR imaging of both healthy, damaged and regenerative cartilage. These developments not only ...
Wanted by the Forbidden Wolf
Wanted by the Forbidden Wolf is a very spicy enemies to lovers, MC Romance with a possessive bad boy and a heroine who refuses to let him own her... at first. When the forbidden wolf howls for her, she tries to run… but fate has other plans. Violet As the only Lycan heiress to the Fire Moon Pack, it’s my duty to become alpha.

Use him, of course. Not just for his body, but to get back home. Except, the games are harder to play when my heart starts to beat for him. Fender Violet thinks she has me under he...
Arthroplasty of the Spine
Joint replacement is a logical step in the treatment of severe joint pathologies with irreversible lesions resisting conservative therapy. At the spinal level, arthrodesis became, very early, the gold standard of treatment for severe intervertebral disc pathologies. The next logical step was to envision functional replacement, and this step was taken as early as 1956, when the first intervertebral implant was described. However, it took many more years and a great variety of proposed implant designs before clinical applications could be attempted.

Cartilage: From Biology to Biofabrication
This book provides a comprehensive overview of cartilage structure, functions, and approaches for the regeneration of cartilage tissue. It reviews multiple signaling pathways that are involved in the growth and repair of cartilage tissue. The initial chapter of the book examines the etiology, diagnosis, and pathological features of various cartilage diseases. Subsequently, the book presents recent advances in biomaterial sciences, regenerative medicine, and fabrication technology for cartilage regeneration. It discusses hydrogels as a promising scaffold for cartilage tissue engineering, focusing on recapitulating microenvironments present during development or in adult tissue to induce the formation of cartilaginous constructs with biochemical and mechanical properties of native tissue. Lastly, it covers the applications of 3 D printing techniques for the fabrication of scaffolds for cartilage tissue regeneration for the production of biological implants capable of treating a range of conditions.
Craniomaxillofacial Reconstructive and Corrective Bone Surgery
This in-depth revision of the successful first edition is one of the only books of its kind to cover the full range of craniomaxillofacial reconstructive and corrective bone surgery.

Bioreactor Systems for Tissue Engineering
The editors of this special volume would first like to thank all authors for their excellent contributions. We would also like to thank Prof. Dr. Thomas Scheper, Dr. Marion Hertel and Ulrike Kreusel for providing the opportunity to compose this volume and Springer for organizational and technical support. Tissue engineering represents one of the major emerging fields in modern b- technology; it combines different subjects ranging from biological and material sciences to engineering and clinical disciplines. The aim of tissue engineering is the development of therapeutic approaches to substitute diseased organs or tissues or improve their function. Therefore, three dimensional biocompatible m...
Philosophies of India
Originally published in 1973. The volume is divided into four sections: The introduction places the position of the Buddhist Tantras within Mahayana Buddhism and recalls their early literary history, especially the Guhyasamahatantra; the section also covers Buddhist Genesis and the Tantric tradition. The foundations of the Buddhist Tantras are discussed and the Tantric presentation of divinity; the preparation of disciples and the meaning of initiation; symbolism of the mandala-palace Tantric ritual and the twilight language. This section explores the Tantric teachings of the inner Zodiac and the fivefold ritual symbolism of passion. The bibliographical research contains an analysis of the Tantric section of the Kanjur exegesis and a selected Western Bibliography of the Buddhist Tantras with comments.
