INTRODUCTION TO CANCER BIOLOGY AND GENETICS
Cancer, a global health crisis, is projected by WHO to cause 10 million deaths by 2020, with a mortality rate of one in six. This has spurred intensive research for innovative treatments. Cancer arises from genetic abnormalities triggering uncontrolled cell division, presenting distinct hallmarks. Both inherited and acquired mutations transform cell behavior, resulting in abnormal growth, reproduction, and death. Environmental toxins and spontaneous mutations contribute to genetic changes, while hereditary factors predispose some individuals. Despite rapid advancements in targeted treatments and immunotherapy, therapy resistance remains a formidable challenge due to the disease's heterogeneity. Understanding cancer biology is crucial for developing effective treatments. This book provides a comprehensive overview, covering basic cell biology, genetics, cancer development mechanisms, immune system involvement, diagnostic methods, treatment modalities, including emerging therapies, and challenges like drug resistance. Geared towards students and researchers in biology, medicine, and oncology, it offers vital insights into combating this complex disease.

Reconstructive Surgery of the Joints
A new edition of Joint Replacement Arthroplasty (1991), revised to address the broader spectrum of joint reconstruction, as evidenced by the 50% increase in the number of chapters (to 131) resulting from the inclusion of all reconstructive options and not just joint replacement. Similar to the first edition, however, the contributions (except for the basic science material) are those of the consulting staff of the Mayo Clinic and Mayo Foundation. The format and outline are also similar, dealing first with the basic science issues pertaining to the specific anatomic part, and then presenting an analysis of the indications, techniques, and results of intervention. The emphasis remains on ready access to the specific questions that face clinicians on a daily basis. Annotation copyright by Book News, Inc., Portland, OR

Avoiding Common ICU Errors
This pocket book succinctly describes 318 errors commonly made by attendings, residents, interns, nurses, and nurse-anesthetists in the intensive care unit, and gives practical, easy-to-remember tips for avoiding these errors. The book can easily be read immediately before the start of a rotation or used for quick reference on call. Each error is described in a short, clinically relevant vignette, followed by a list of things that should always or never be done in that context and tips on how to avoid or ameliorate problems. Coverage includes all areas of ICU practice except the pediatric intensive care unit.
Uncovering Identity in Mortuary Analysis
This volume presents a sophisticated set of archival, forensic, and excavation methods to identify both individuals and group affiliations—cultural, religious, and organizational—in a multiethnic historical cemetery. Based on an extensive excavation project of more than 1,000 nineteenth-century burials in downtown Tucson, Arizona, the team of historians, archaeologists, biological anthropologists, and community researchers created an effective methodology for use at other historical-period sites. Comparisons made with other excavated cemeteries strengthens the power of this toolkit for historical archaeologists and others. The volume also sensitizes archaeologists to the concerns of community and cultural groups to mortuary excavation and outlines procedures for proper consultation with the descendants of the cemetery’s inhabitants.
