The real Ibiza island that nobody wants to see, described in this novel as hard as it is.
Petra is fifteen years old and it's her first day at school, any school. She is at least five years ahead of anyone her age academically, she can speak at least three languages, but has no memories before waking up in a hospital bed with terrible head injuries. She had been in a coma for three years after a tragic accident that killed her parents, or so she believes. Two years later she is making her first foray into the real world. In addition to the terrors of trying to make friends, dealing with her sexuality and the school bully, she has to fit into a world she does not understand. She needs a cocktail of drugs every day to keep her alive and there is the second consciousness in her head who invades her dreams and is slowly gaining a foothold in her waking state. All she wants is to be a normal teenager, but her alter ego has other ideas. Who was Petra? What is Gentek? What connection does Petra have to a serial killer being sought by the Swedish police? Her guardians know more than they are telling.
This book constitutes an excellent source of information for gaining a better understanding of information technologies in healthcare; for reviewing how healthcare will change as a consequence; and how to manage these changes in order to realise eHealth's full potential in creating value for patients, professionals and the system as a whole.

"This book provides methodologies and developments of grid technologies applied in different fields of life sciences"--Provided by publisher.
Traces the development over the past hundred years of the urban working class in northern Sonora. Drawing on an extensive collection of life histories, Heyman describes what has happened to families over several generations as people left the countryside to work for American-owned companies in northern Sonora or to cross the border to find other employment.
The main focus of this publication is on technologies, solutions and requirements that interest the grid and the life-science communities to foster the integration of grids into health. The proceedings are especially interesting for grid middleware and grid application developers, biomedical and health informatics users, and security and policy makers with a common focus on the application in the health domain. Topics in this publication are: State-of-the-art of the grid research and use at molecule, cell, organ, individual and population levels; and security and imaging. In security, data protection and pseudonymization are being discussed. In imaging, there's Globus MEDICUS, which federates DICOM devices through a grid architecture and KnowARC on facilitating grid networks for the biomedical research community. Finally, there's a report on the successful use of multimodal workflows in diabetic retinopathy research.
