Thousand Feet Above
I heard some whimpering sounds and opened my eyes in a flash. I got up feeling very light. And what I saw was really weird. There was a crowd around. I saw my parents in it. They were weeping. But why? My mom suddenly bent down. It was me lying there on the ground. Blood was scattered around me. My cycle was also there in abject condition. “My poor baby!” I heard my mom murmuring sorry. My father was also crying beside her. This is the 13th time I was dying on the same street; the street where I had died 12 times before. This is the story of a 14-year-old teenage girl, Avni, who is not very talented in her studies but has a varied ‘spark.’ The fantasy of Thousand Feet Above will take you on the journey of a very different world. Let's go with Avni!
Land Loss in Louisiana
This book is oriented on testing and developing the neopragmatic approach of horizontal geographies, in which we follow approaches of natural sciences, social sciences, and cultural studies. Regional focus is thereby put on a rapidly changing elemental space and its social representations, characterized by unstable and not well-defined hybridities: coastal Louisiana. This region is highly dynamic: the Mississippi River in particular, with its extensive sediments, has shifted the coastal fringe of present-day Louisiana into the Gulf of Mexico. This land gain is contrasted by natural processes, but also by processes resultant of human intervention which cause marine encroachment. A complex int...

SPECT and SPECT/CT
FOUR STARS from Doody's Star Ratings™ Internationally renowned authorities in the field of hybrid imaging contribute firsthand expertise on the practical application of single-photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) and SPECT/CT. By combining clear anatomic markers from CT with functional knowledge from SPECT, SPECT/CT provides added value for patient evaluation and is becoming increasingly prevalent in routine clinical practice. Indeed, hybrid imaging is touted by many as a game changer in nuclear medicine. The first two chapters of this book provide a foundation for understanding SPECT and SPECT/CT technological principles, including the associated radiopharmaceuticals. The remaining...
Advances in Environmental Modelling
This book contains a collection of papers presented at ISEM's 6th International Conference, providing state-of-the-art information on environmental modelling. Particular emphasis is placed on large-scale transport, and the related impact on marine environments, wetlands, lakes and lagoons. The most significant phenomena to play a role in the water quality of such environments are reviewed. In addition, optimal modelling strategies, with particular attention to large water bodies, are suggested. The book should also help to bridge the gap between ecological modelling, on the one hand, and decision makers, on the other, as it contains a special section focussing on modelling the decision-making process and the relationship with public policies.
Prehypertension and Cardiometabolic Syndrome
This book sheds new light on the management of patients with borderline cardiovascular risk factors in order to prevent their progression to end organ damage. The book stimulates discussion of this poorly understood condition and lays the groundwork for developing recommendations and guidelines. While the diagnostic and therapeutic approach to full-blown diabetes, hypertension, dyslipidemia and obesity is well defined, there is still a lack of clear understanding and guidelines as far as patients with borderline conditions – especially when multiple – are concerned. Moreover, end-organ damage depends on several factors, including genetic factors, making it difficult to predict its extent...
