God's Waiting Room
Can older racists change their tune, or will they haunt us further once they're gone? Rich in mystery and life's lessons, God's Waiting Room considers what matters in the end for older white adults and the younger Black nurses who care for them. An innovation in creative nonfiction, Casey Golomski's story of his years of immersive research at a nursing home in South Africa, thirty years after the end of apartheid, is narrated as a one-day, room-by-room tour. The story is told in breathtakingly intimate and witty conversations with the home's residents and nurses, including the untold story of Nelson Mandela's Robben Island prison nurse, and readers learn how ageism, sexism, and racism intersect and impact health care both in South Africa and in the United States, as well as create conditions in which people primed to be enemies find grace despite the odds. For copyright reasons, this edition is not available in the South African Development Community and Kenya.
Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy of Degenerative Brain Diseases
The proposed book will act as a guide for scientists and clinicians to the unique information that MRS can provide. It will be a comprehensive overview of clinical and pre-clinical MRS applications and potential clinical utility of MRS biomarkers in degenerative brain diseases from leading experts in the field. MRS has proven to be a powerful complementary tool to MRI for the diagnosis and monitoring of disease progression and response to treatment because it can detect changes in cell density, cell type, and biochemical composition, not just structural changes. As the population in the developed world continues to age, neuroimaging for diagnosis, prognosis, and therapy monitoring of neurodegenerative diseases becomes increasingly important and there has been a recent surge of clinical and pre-clinical applications of MRS indicating that this technique can provide robust and non-invasive biomarkers of degeneration.

Mayo Clinic Neurology Board Review: Basic Sciences and Psychiatry for Initial Certification
This comprehensive board review guide will aid in your preparation for the neurology board certification and recertification. With extensive neuroimaging, illustrations, and neuropathology included, Mayo Clinic Neurology Board Review eliminates the need for obtaining multiple resources to study for the neurology board examination; high-yield information is emphasized to highlight key facts. While this book is aimed at passing the neurology boards, it may also be useful to medical students and residents rotating through neurology or for the generalist with an interest in reviewing neurology. For those recertifying for neurology, the dual volume book eliminates the need to wade through excess text with basic sciences. In addition, information on maintenance of certification helps those recertifying understand the complex requirements.
Wired for Music
“Beautifully written... a riveting account of how melodies and rhythms connect us, and help us deal with alienation and anxiety.”—Dr. Bessel van der Kolk, author of The Body Keeps the Score In this captivating blend of science and memoir, a health journalist and former cellist explores music as a source of health, resilience, connection, and joy. Music isn’t just background noise or a series of torturous exercises we remember from piano lessons. In the right doses, it can double as a mild antidepressant, painkiller, sleeping pill, memory aid—and enhance athletic performance while supporting healthy aging. Though music has been used as a healing strategy since ancient times, neurosc...
