Sailor Take Warning
An undertow of danger and deception threatens a professor’s search for the truth—and his life—in this gripping New England academic mystery. MIT Professor Bill Rundle discovers the body of his graduate assistant Justin Marsh floating in the Charles River. Accident? Suicide? The fact that the corpse is missing an eye suggests something much more sinister . . . But now, somehow and from somewhere, a computer belonging to Justin has come to life to send Bill a posthumous email. Attached are over six thousand lines of what looks like jumbled code—or is it? Under suspicion himself for Justin’s murder, and despite multiple threats, Rundle sets out to uncover the real killer, and to find out why those six thousand lines of seeming gibberish may have cost Justin his life . . . Helped by a colleague, Rundle learns it’s a program for piloting an America’s Cup yacht. Suspects linked to a racing team include a Russian Mafioso, an aggressive Japanese millionaire, a Boston-based entrepreneur, even the head of Rundle’s own lab. When another colleague is found dead, Rundle deciphers a complex clue that leads him to a deadly climactic encounter.
Advanced Imaging Techniques in Clinical Pathology
This text provides a comprehensive, state-of-the-art review of the application of image analysis focusing on the techniques which can be used in every biology and medical laboratory to automate procedures of cell analysis and to create statistics very useful for a comprehension of cell growth dynamics and the effects of drugs on them. This textbook will serve as a very useful resource for physicians and researchers dealing with, and interested in, cell analysis. It will provide a concise yet comprehensive summary of the current status of the field that will help guide patient management and stimulate investigative efforts. All chapters are written by experts in their fields and include the most up-to-date scientific and clinical information. Advanced Imaging Techniques in Clinical Pathology will be of great value to clinical pathologists, biologists, biology researchers, and those working in the clinical and biological laboratory arena.
Diagnostic and Interventional Radiology in Gynecological and Obstetric Diseases
This book focuses on the role of diagnostic and interventional radiology in obstetrical and gynecological diseases. It provides relevant information on each topic, considering both diagnostic and interventional radiology, which now belong to the same professional unit. Each chapter begins with a brief introduction to the most relevant clinical aspects of the pathology. Diagnostic examinations are also discussed, with a focus on the radiological studies (US/CT/MR) functional to subsequent procedures. This is followed by an interventional section, which clarifies the indications, contraindications, techniques (including choice of materials) and follow-up. Lastly, clinical cases are provided, together with multiple-choice review questions. Given its scope, the book will appeal to radiologists, gynecologists and obstetricians, as well as to residents in these specialties.
Emergency Laparoscopy
This book provides up-to-date evidence on laparoscopic emergency surgery and supplies concrete advice on when and how to approach patients laparoscopically in an emergency setting. All the diseases elegible for emergency laparoscopy are addressed, and for each disease recommendations, levels of evidence, and technical key points are discussed and analyzed. Diagnostic flow charts are included for cases in which laparoscopy turns out to be the final diagnostic step and the first therapeutic one. Furthermore, problematic and positive aspects of the laparoscopic approach from the anesthesiologic point of view are fully explored. Finally, a useful overview of current practice in hospitals across the world is provided, highlighting the varying applications in relation to different medical “cultures”, skills, resources, and healthcare systems.
Emergency Radiology of the Chest and Cardiovascular System
This book provides an up-to-date, systematic review of all facets of emergency radiology in patients with chest trauma or pain with the aim of equipping the reader with a detailed knowledge of the various radiological patterns, which is essential in order to make a prompt diagnosis under circumstances when time is of critical importance. To this end, the indications, value, and results of the various emergency imaging modalities, including sonography and interventional radiology, are described and illustrated in the full range of blunt chest injuries and nontraumatic chest emergencies. Technological aspects, protocols tailored to the mechanism of injury, and post-processing techniques are also extensively covered. Emergency Radiology of the Chest and Cardiovascular System will be of value to general and interventional radiologists, radiology residents, radiology technicians, and all physicians and surgeons who work in emergency care.
Australia Fair
"Drawing on a lifetime of research and experience, Hugh Stretton makes a case for doing whatever it takes to keep Australia fair. Rejecting easy platitudes and vague assertions, one of Australia's leading thinkers sets out an ambitious - yet fully costed - plan that encompasses every aspect of Australian life." "Australia Fair is a manifesto that makes us realise that fairness is no longer necessarily our defining characteristic.

Lies My Doctor Told Me Second Edition
Has your doctor lied to you? Eat low-fat and high-carb, including plenty of “healthy” whole grains—does that sound familiar?

This updated and expanded edition of Dr. Berry’s bestseller Lies My Doctor Told Me exposes the truth behind all kinds of “lies” told by well-meaning but misinformed medical practitioners. Nutritional therapy is oft...
Planetary Nebulae
Planetary nebulae are a keystone for the understanding of the evolution of stars, for deep insights into the physical processes prevailing in highly excited dilute nebulae, and for the chemical evolution in galaxies. These objects, displaying an intriguing morphology, have a `short' lifetime of a few tens of thousands of years, and have become one of the best studied classes of celestial sources. However, despite large and successful efforts from both the observational and theoretical side, planetary nebulae still keep some of their secrets (like the widely unknown distances) and will undoubtedly also be objects of thorough investigations in the years to come.
