Vivimos en una granja / We Live on a Farm
A farm is its own kind of exciting rural community, and readers discover what life is like for farmers and their families through accessible, relatable text and colorful photographs. Developing knowledge of different kinds of communities is an important part of early social studies curricula, and this topic is fun for readers to explore as they learn what happens on a farm. A detailed picture glossary helps readers understand farm life by clarifying unfamiliar terms. Readers discover many fun aspects of farm life—from growing crops and using the tractor to raising cows and running a farm stand.
Antihypertensive Drugs
Twenty US and European contributors from academia and pharmaceutical companies present a tripartite discussion of the short but impressive history of drug treatment of essential hypertension, focusing on: medicinal chemistry, pharmacology, and the clinical picture. Each successive generation of drugs (e.g. beta-blockers, calcium antagonists, and ACE-inhibitors) permits more precise tailoring to individual patient needs, as well as further elucidating the pathophysiology of the disease. Those interested in integrative medicine will appreciate the paper on treating hypertension in the elderly and diabetics, which refers to non-drug lifestyle approaches to lowering blood pressure.
