Integrated Cytology of Cerebrospinal Fluid
Cytologic examination of the cerebrospinal fluid is a technically simple, yet productive, diagnostic procedure. Here is a practical guide to this method, as used in the diagnosis of different pathologies. High-quality slides depict the common cerebrospinal fluid cell types, cell anomalies in inflammatory conditions and neoplastic and non-neoplastic disorders, and cases with contaminants. It’s required reading for pathologists, as well as neurologists and neurosurgeons.
Hitler's Salon
From 1937 to 1944 the National Socialist regime organised a series of art exhibitions, Grosse Deutsche Kuntstausstellung, in Munich. This book traces the history of the exhibitions, characterises the artists and artworks shown and investigates how the local Munich tradition of displaying art was reinvented for national purposes.
Well Worth Saving
A harrowing account of the profoundly consequential decisions American universities made about refugee scholars from Nazi-dominated Europe--a finalist for a 2020 National Jewish Book Award The United States’ role in saving Europe’s intellectual elite from the Nazis is often told as a tale of triumph, which in many ways it was. America welcomed Albert Einstein and Enrico Fermi, Hannah Arendt and Herbert Marcuse, Rudolf Carnap and Richard Courant, among hundreds of other physicists, philosophers, mathematicians, historians, chemists, and linguists who transformed the American academy. Yet for every scholar who survived and thrived, many, many more did not. To be hired by an American university, a refugee scholar had to be world-class and well connected, not too old and not too young, not too right and not too left, and, most important, not too Jewish. Those who were unable to flee were left to face the horrors of the Holocaust. In this rigorously researched book, Laurel Leff rescues from obscurity scholars who were deemed “not worth saving” and tells the riveting, full story of the hiring decisions universities made during the Nazi era.
Collecting Early Modern Art (1400-1800) in the U.S. South
This volume gathers together recent research from leading scholars specializing in the history of collecting. American Southern art collections, both public and private, contain rich and representative holdings of Renaissance and Baroque art which remain understudied, compared to the collections bracketing the east and west coasts of the United States. This anthology considers how these works of art were acquired for both prominent public and private collections, how they have been curated and displayed in exhibitions, and how they have also been preserved historically. Individual essays address a variety of art media representative of the early modern period in Europe and the Americas. Case studies of specific works of art, collections, and collectors address the broad geographic scope of Southern collections, inclusive of Washington, DC, the Carolinas, Georgia, Alabama, Louisiana, Arkansas, and Texas.
The Projective Cast
Robin Evans recasts the idea of the relationship between geometry and architecture, drawing on mathematics, engineering, art history, and aesthetics to uncover processes in the imagining and realizing of architectural form. Anyone reviewing the history of architectural theory, Robin Evans observes, would have to conclude that architects do not produce geometry, but rather consume it. In this long-awaited book, completed shortly before its author's death, Evans recasts the idea of the relationship between geometry and architecture, drawing on mathematics, engineering, art history, and aesthetics to uncover processes in the imagining and realizing of architectural form. He shows that geometry ...

Das Erwachen der Elfriede Sommer
Elfriede Sommer scheint eine glückliche Frau zu sein, die alles hat, was sie sich wünscht. Aber der Schein trügt. Eines Tages kreuzt ein Mann ihren Weg, der ihre gewohnte Sicht der Dinge völlig durcheinanderbringt. Obwohl sie ihn gar nicht kennt, wirkt er ihr auf Anhieb seltsam vertraut. Sie spürt eine starke Verbindung zu ihm und fragt sich, ob sie dabei ist, sich zu verlieben. Aber die Intimität, die sie fühlt, ist keine romantische oder gar erotische. Das verwirrt sie noch mehr. Als der Fremde ihr im Traum erscheint und sich als ihr Seelenführer vorstellt, beginnt für Elfriede ein Abenteuer, das ihr alles an Mut und Wahrheitsliebe abverlangen wird.
