Memory Mountain
My husband Brian and I live in Georgia. This is my fi rst book and I am currently working on my second. Its our dream to one day travel the National Parks and enjoy nature. How exciting it would be to enjoy the pleasures of writing in the surroundings of a National Park. I enjoyed writing this book so much. I hope you enjoy reading it as much as I enjoyed writing it.
Shades of Terror
Sarah Hewett, a young girl, grows up under very strange circumstances. These circumstances are never questioned because as a child she considers this to be the normal way of life. Later in life, as a young adult, Sarah begins to question many aspects of her life. She discovers bizarre facts about her parents and her ancestry. The male members of the Hewett family had been the leaders in a small town in Georgia for centuries past. This new found information leads her on a journey across the country. Sarah traces her history to the far away origination of her ancestral past. The horror of her findings leads her to the Deep South, and to a place that has remained undiscovered and untouched for ...
Essential Radiology
This comprehensive introduction to the essentials of radiology is designed to enable readers to excel at ordering the appropriate examination and reliably interpreting basic imaging findings. Organized around the major organ systems, it situates imaging within the larger context of the patient's clinical presentation, the pathophysiology of the disease or injury, the analysis and differential diagnosis of imaging findings, and the integration of each into patient management. Special features include: Concise reviews of key anatomic and physiologic principles Full integration of pathophysiology and imaging findings More than 600 exquisite illustrations demonstrating important concepts Mini-atlas of essential cross-sectional anatomy of the brain, chest, and abdomen Essential Radiology is an invaluable reference for learning how to make full use of radiology's extraordinary promise in diagnosing disease and enhancing patient care. Instructors will find this an ideal book for course adoption.
Latissimus Dorsi Transfer
This book is exceptional in providing detailed state of the art guidance on all aspects of transfer of the latissimus dorsi tendon for indications including irreparable posterosuperior rotator cuff tears, irreparable subscapularis tears, and shoulder replacement. In addition to clear, well-illustrated descriptions of arthroscopically assisted surgical technique, readers will find helpful information on biomechanics, surgical indications, post-transfer rehabilitation, and complications and their management. Outcomes from individual studies and meta-analyses are evaluated, and a feature of special interest is the presentation of experiences and results in a series of more than 430 patients using the surgical technique first described by Enrico Gervasi more than 10 years ago. This technique involves modifications in both preparation of the footprint for the latissimus dorsi tendon and the biomechanical features of the tendon transfer and is very different from the procedure proposed by Christian Gerber. The book will be of high value for all orthopedic surgeons who perform this complex shoulder surgery, as well as for residents and fellows-in-training.
Godfrey Hounsfield
A mild-mannered, pleasant but determined genius, Godfrey Hounsfield made a great breakthrough in medical imaging CT scans in 1972. His revolutionary method led to fast, pain-free, and accurate diagnosis of conditions of the human brain, and today helps to bring health benefits to people all over the world. Blood clots caused by strokes, falls, or motor accidents are diagnosed and treated before causing irreversible damage. Tumours are located and assessed without exploratory surgery. The man who pioneered this had no medical training. Godfrey Hounsfield left school with no qualifications, and he is one of the few Nobel laureates not to have learnt their skills at university. He was mostly self-taught and he thought in unusual ways, using pictures, analogies, and intuition. He was a peaceful man, but his wartime years in the RAF, during which he became a radar instructor, were a major turning point, and this boy from a farm went on to change the world.
Molecular Mechanisms of Cancer
This book describes molecular processes whose deregulation is important in the formation of tumors. The material is developed from basic cell signaling pathways to their roles in the clinical manifestation of specific cancers. Topics covered include molecular events intrinsic to tumor cells (leading to growth deregulation, extended lifespan, and the ability to invade surrounding tissue), protective mechanisms that prevent transformation (including DNA repair and epigenetic regulation), tumor-host interactions (with the endocrine system, the immune system, and blood vessel formation), and the underlying molecular defects of individual cancers.
Patient-Centered E-Health
Presents the perspective of a distinct form of e-health that is patient-focused, patient-aware, patient-empowered, and patient-active. Addresses the special characteristics of the e-health domain through a user-centered design, providing foundational topics in areas such as patient-centered design methods, psychological aspects of online health communication, and e-health marketing.
No Greater Love
Look at Helen Baylor today and you don't see the anguish of childhood molestation, the isolation resulting from teen-age pregnancy, the desperation of being strung out on drugs, the vulnerability of being homeless, the numbing fear of having witnessed a murder or the pain of being forced to sell her body. You're too caught up in the purity of her singing, the anointing on her voice. You hear the joy of a changed life. As a gospel singer, Helen has few peers. There are many who are better known than she but few who can sing from such depth of conviction -- and with such passion. Her story is raw and compromised. She tells of becoming a teen-age singing sensation, of joining the cast of Hair, of hooking up with the Ike and Tina Turner Review, the Captain & Tennille, a Chaka Khan and Rufus. Then she tells of her friendship with cocaine and her promiscuity. She tells of bright highs and dark lows. She tells of the underside of life and of her glorious deliverance through Jesus Christ. For Helen Baylor, there truly is no greater love.
