WHO ARE THE CHINESE? Through on-the-ground interviews, Ana Fuentes uncovers the real China and offers a panoramic look at Chinese culture from the point of view of its citizens. She spent nearly 4 years living and working in China and discovered a world few have written about . . . until now. FROM THE DRAGON’S MOUTH: Ten True Stories that Unveil the Real China is an exquisitely intimate look into the China of the 21st century as seen through the eyes of its people. This is the first time that a book combines the voices of everyday Chinese people from so many different layers of society: a dissident tortured by the police; a young millionaire devoted to nationalism; a peasant-turnedprostitu...

With a focus on evidence-based, contemporary, and clinically relevant information, this practical new resource provides a concise, clinical, and techniques-focused guide to the medical, endovenous, and surgical management of patients with acute and chronic venous disease. Internationally recognized chapter authors cover the general principles of the pathophysiology, diagnosis, indications, and decision-making around the management of acute and chronic venous disease. The text emphasizes endovenous and surgical techniques where applicable, and also addresses symptomatic peripheral venous insufficiency, deep venous thrombosis, and the care of patients with symptomatic central venous disease. Vascular surgeons will find this a valuable guide, providing insights into key techniques and approaches to the treatment of acute and chronic venous disorders. This book is an invaluable resource for vascular trainees preparing for examinations and for physicians in other specialities looking to expand their knowledge base.

¿Quiénes son los chinos? ¿Son realmente tan sacrificados y trabajadores? ¿Promiscuos? ¿Les interesa lo que pasa fuera de su país? Antes de vivir en China, la periodista Ana Fuentes tenía una imagen estereotipada de sus gentes: personas infatigables, capaces de sobreponerse a cualquier adversidad, pero a menudo faltos de empatía. Hasta que los conoció. Durante cuatro años descubrió un país complejo y plagado de contradicciones, donde la economía crece a ritmo de vértigo, la corrupción alcanza niveles desorbitados e Internet es sistemáticamente censurado. Se ganó la confianza de la gente, en general reticente a hablar con periodistas, y entrevistó a decenas de personas gracia...

International Sport

There has been an explosion in the quantity of sports history literature published in recent years, making it increasingly difficult to keep abreast of developments. The annual number of publications has increased from around 250 to 1,000 a year over the last decade. This is due in part to the fact that during the late 1980s and 90s, many clubs, leagues and governing bodies of sport have celebrated their centenaries and produced histories to mark this occasion and commemorate their achievements. It is also the result of the growing popularity and realisation of the importance of sport history research within academe. This international bibliography of books, articles, conference proceedings and essays in the English language is a one-stop for the sports historian to know what is new.

But will he be able to use his intelligence and technical know-how to win their hearts? Probably not, but it makes for a good story ...

Health is defined as “the state of the organism when it functions optimally without evidence of disease”. Surprisingly, the words “microbes” or “microorganism” are missing in this definition. The regulation of gut microbiota is mediated by an enormous quantity of aspects, such as microbiological factors, host characteristics, diet patterns, and environmental variables. Some protective, structural, and metabolic functions have been reported for gut microbiota, and these functions are related to the regulation of homeostasis and host health. Host defense against pathogens is, in part, mediated through gut microbiota action and requires intimate interpretation of the current microen...
