Comprehensive Manual of Ophthalmology in which sufficient information has been provided in easy-to-understand language with a definite and uniform format. Many tables have been incorporated for summarizing key facts about different diseases. Enough standard colored illustrations will be of immense help. A short list of Further Readings has been added at the end of each chapter for those who want to persue further on the particular topic. I consider this humble endeavor as a mini textbook of ophthalmology in a refreshingly reader-friendly fashion, which I presume will be quite useful for both undergraduate and postgraduate students, residents and even practicing ophthalmologists.
The second edition of Manual of Ophthalmic Diagnosis has been fully updated to provide the latest knowledge and understanding of ocular disorders. Beginning with an introduction to differential diagnosis of ocular symptoms and signs, the following chapters describe diagnosis of numerous disorders within in each part of the eye. Each disorder is explained in a step by step format, describing the causes, clinical characteristics, investigation, differential diagnosis and treatment. This new edition includes suggestions for further reading and nearly 350 full colour clinical photographs and illustrations to enhance learning. Key points Fully updated, new edition providing latest developments in ophthalmic diagnosis Describes numerous disorders in each part of the eye Extensive further reading section Includes nearly 350 full colour clinical photographs and illustrations Previous edition published in 2005
Ebook: Managerial Economics and Organizational Architecture
There are many people across the planet who work every day for the sake of others but who are ensconced in exhausting work with dangerous and difficult situations of conflict. These people are often heroic bridge-builders and creators of peaceful societies, and they have a common set of cultivated moral character traits and psychosocial skills. They tend to be kinder, more reasonable, more self-controlled, and more goal-oriented to peace. They are united by a particular set of moral values and the emotional skills to put those values into practice. The aim of this book is to articulate the best combination of those values and skills that lead to personal and communal sustainability, not burnout and self-destruction. The book pivots on the observable difference in the mind-and proven in neuroscience imaging experiments-between destructive empathic distress, on the one hand, and, on the other, joyful, constructive, compassionate care. .
The book, Optimism Unveiled, begins with an ode paying tribute to President Abdul Kalam whose dream was to see India shining in every field. ‘Hima’ is a poem to honour the achievements of the great athlete, Hima Das, whose life is a source of inspiration for all. The book has poems of varied tastes. The poems ‘Paradise’ and ‘Blend’ are experimental in a sense, as photographs of the talented photographer Sudip Bhattacharya are used to pen down romantic verses and poetry of peace. ‘I have a dream,’ based on the painting of a promising painter, Sejuti Biswas, is steeped in romantic bliss. ‘She’ is a poetic tale based on a real-life experience. ‘Four Feathers’ symbolises trauma of four women whose ultimate freedom lies in sharing and caring. ‘Mother’ portrays a woman’s helplessness followed by her fearless step to protect her girl child. The book ends with the message of freedom in ‘Bihanga’ (The Bird) based on dancer Alokananda Roy’s venture of initiating cultural therapy amongst prisoners by teaching them the art of dance.
This book discusses the study and analysis of the physical aspects of social systems and models, inspired by the analogy with familiar models of physical systems and possible applications of statistical physics tools. Unlike the traditional analysis of the physics of macroscopic many-body or condensed matter systems, which is now an established and mature subject, the upsurge in the physical analysis and modelling of social systems, which are clearly many-body dynamical systems, is a recent phenomenon. Though the major developments in sociophysics have taken place only recently, the earliest attempts of proposing "Social Physics" as a discipline are more than one and a half centuries old. Various developments in the mainstream physics of condensed matter systems have inspired and induced the recent growth of sociophysical analysis and models. In spite of the tremendous efforts of many scientists in recent years, the subject is still in its infancy and major challenges are yet to be taken up. An introduction to these challenges is the main motivation for this book.
With the current rapid development of ophthalmic sciences, it is difficult for ophthalmologists to remain fully up to date with all areas of clinical specialty. The second edition of this atlas describes the latest advances in clinical ophthalmology. Each chapter deals with a separate part of the eye, discussing different diseases and disorders that may be encountered by ophthalmologists. Each condition is accompanied by concise descriptions of major and minor signs, as well as detailed photographs illustrating the disease. This comprehensive new edition features 3750 full colour images and illustrations, including more than 600 additional photographs. Images from the first edition have been replaced with better quality photographs taken with the Haag-Streit BX-900 Photo-Slit Lamp and the Zeiss FF 450 Plus Fundus camera.

This comprehensive and sophisticated video atlas comprises of more than 345 videos of some of the important and finest ophthalmic surgeries by approximately 200 contributors from all over the world. It would serve as a landmark reference not only for teaching residents in ophthalmic surgery practices, but also to experienced surgeons. This revised and updated second edition through its high quality videos demonstrates step by step, the latest techniques involved in both anterior and posterior segment surgeries along with a narration. The new technologies, especially Femtosecond Laser Refractive and Cataract Surgery, Minimally Invasive Surgery 23G and 25G, Posterior Segment Surgery and other new techniques have been described in the second edition. -- Publisher.
The primary goal of the book is to present the ideas and research findings of active researchers such as physicists, economists, mathematicians and financial engineers working in the field of “Econophysics,” who have undertaken the task of modeling and analyzing systemic risk, network dynamics and other topics. Of primary interest in these studies is the aspect of systemic risk, which has long been identified as a potential scenario in which financial institutions trigger a dangerous contagion mechanism, spreading from the financial economy to the real economy. This type of risk, long confined to the monetary market, has spread considerably in the recent past, culminating in the subprime crisis of 2008. As such, understanding and controlling systemic risk has become an extremely important societal and economic challenge. The Econophys-Kolkata VI conference proceedings are dedicated to addressing a number of key issues involved. Several leading researchers in these fields report on their recent work and also review contemporary literature on the subject.
