A focused and practical BASIC board review book that provides comprehensive coverage for residents approaching the BASIC exam.
This text covers the major controversies and "myths" in each of the major anesthesia subspecialties. You're Wrong, I'm Right is designed to be an easy and engaging evidence based read that offers the fast-paced give-and-take of a debate between two experts at the top of their game--capturing their full argument, including expressions of humor and displays of temper. Each point of contention begins with a real case, carefully selected to encapsulate the argument. One author then argues the "pro" side and another the "con." Sometimes a single author may argue both sides. In doing so, the authors highlight the newest evidence and remind us of classic principles that have stood the test of time. At the end of the debate, readers can determine which argument they will use in their clinical practice, and may also consult a final "Consensus” section that identifies the editors' and contributors' "picks" of the one best practice in a range of different situations.

Regional Anesthesia and Acute Pain Medicine: A Problem-Based Learning Approach provides a comprehensive review of regional anesthesia and acute pain medicine for medical learners to integrate theoretical knowledge into clinical practice. Its problem-based format incorporates a pool of multiple-choice questions for self-assessment. Each of its 50 case-based chapters is accompanied by questions and answers accessible online in a full practice exam. These chapters cover several areas such as pharmacology, obstetric and pediatric regional anesthesia, complex acute pain problems, anticoagulation, and regional anesthesia and complicated nerve blocks. The cases presented are also unique, as each chapter starts with a case description, usually a compilation of several actual cases, which branches out through case-based questions to increasingly complex situations. This structure is designed to create an authentic experience mirroring the nuances of a complicated clinical scenario. The discussion sections that follow offer a comprehensive approach to the chapter's subject matter, thus creating a modern, complete, and up-to-date medical review of the topic.
Extremophiles are organisms that are able to live in extreme conditions due to their unique physiological and genetic adaptations. Extremophiles are harnessed for their extremozymes that have wide applications in biotechnology, pharmaceutics, and industry. Recent developments in genomics and proteomics have helped unravel the mechanism of survival, physiological adaptation, and genomics structure of extremophiles. Physiology, Genomics, and Biotechnological Applications of Extremophiles covers innovative developments in understanding the physiology and biochemistry of extremophiles using the -omics perspective, focuses on the advancement in mechanisms of the extremophiles that makes them able to survive under extreme conditions, and discusses the applications of extremophiles in astrobiology. Covering topics such as genomics and the history and identification of extremophiles, it is ideal for students, professors, researchers, academicians, microbiologists, agricultural scientists, and biotechnologists.
