Overview: Includes supplementary material: Thyroid Disease: A Case-Based and Practical Guide for Primary Care, by Dr. Emanuel Brams, is a supremely readable cased-based approach to understanding the myriad of disorders that encompass thyroid disease. Using cases derived from his busy practice, Dr. Brams gives us the history and physical examination details of each case, along with test results. Then, through a series of questions similar to that which any good clinician asks while caring for a patient, Dr. Brams explains an optimal approach to diagnosis, treatment, and follow-up of thyroid dis

Overview: Swanson‘s book provides a good framework for understanding the extinction process in deeper socio-economic terms, and for evaluating some of the suggestions that have been made to arrest the decline.

Overview: Carefully researched, accompanied by detailed bibliography.Provides a coherent and detailed account of the theory of series in the 18th and early 19th centuries.Includes a comprehensive account of manThe theory of series in the 17th and 18th centuries poses several interesting problems to historians. Indeed, mathematicians of the time derived num- ous results that range from the binomial theorem to the Taylor formula, from the power series expansions of elementary functions to trigonometric series, from Stirling’s series to series solution of di?erential equations, from theEuler–Macl

Overview: In this volume, readers are introduced to Vygotsky‘s argument for a theoretical and methodological approach to differentiate A "higher" mental functions from the more basic brain processes that other theorists believed were at the center of the psychological apparatus. The famed Soviet psychologist‘s view of developmental issues as an intricately woven tapestry of functions includes analyses of: .- the development of speech and written language .- the mastering of attention and mnemonic skills .- self-control and the higher, more cultivated forms of behavior .- the cultural age, pers

Overview: During the last decade scientists in both basic and clinical research have renew­ ed their interest in the potential role of thrombolytic therapy in the treatment of acute ischemic stroke. The reevaluation of this approach was kindled by our growing knowledge of the pathogenesis of thrombotic and embolic stroke and by the development of new thrombolytic agents. With no proven therapy for acute ischemic stroke available, the potential value of early pharmacologic recanalization of occluded vessels in the management of acute stroke patients - an approach that has been supported by anim

Overview: African and South American trypanosomiases are notable features of clinical and veterinary practice in their respective endemic areas and, as such, are of considerable economic importance. Scientifically, however, their importance ex­ tends beyond their clinical significance, as the trypano­ somes are intriguing and easily manipulated models for the study of the control of gene expression, membrane chemistry, proliferation and differentiation. It is clear from the scientific press that the rate of advance has "hotted" up in these areas of trypanosome research over the past 5 years an

Overview: Die Technik ist ein Thema, das quer zu den wissenschaftlichen Diszi­ plinen liegt. Grund genug, sich mit ihr auch aus soziologischer Per­ spektive zu beschäftigen. Jede Disziplin erschafft sich ihren Gegenstand auf ihre Weise. Die In­ genieurwissenschaften sehen in der Technik eine Konstruktion, die sie zum Funktionieren bringen und deren Wirkungsgrad ständig zu ver­ bessern sei. Die Literaturwissenschaften untersuchen die Technik als Motiv im Roman und als Medium des Schreibens. Die Wirtschafts­ wissenschaften behandeln die Technik als Substitut für menschliche Arbeitkraft und als Q

Overview: The most rewarding aspect of writing a book is receiving encouraging comments from one‘s colleagues, since one always wonders whether fair coverage was made of the work of others or whether some omissions were made.

During the past few years they have given me valuable suggestions by pointing out areas that needed to be added to improve the book. Toxicology is one of the fastest moving scientific fields. In the areas of insecticide toxic
