Book author: Jeffrey J. Raizer, Lauren E. Abrey
Amazon Rating:

Book Description:

Brain metastases are the most dreaded complication of systemic cancer, affecting approximately 170,000 people a year, a far greater incidence than primary brain tumors. Advances in modern chemotherapy have led to an improved control of system cancers, often with agents that poorly penetrate the central nervous system, resulting in an increasing incidence of brain metastases. Traditional chemotherapy has had little impact on brain metastases. The main therapeutic option is radiation therapy, and in a small number of patients - surgery. However, refinements in all of these treatments offer some positive outcomes and an increased ability to stratify patients based on certain criteria.

This book will bring current information on the presentation and management of patients with brain metastases, providing available data, giving guidelines that can be applied in day to day practice, updated information for neuro-surgeons, radiation oncologists, medical oncologists, and neuro-oncologists, as well as an overview for physicians in training.

Product Description:


Neuromodulation is a rapidly evolving multidisciplinary biomedical and biotechnological field. The two volumes present the state-of-the-art in established and emerging applications for pain, spasticity, movement disorders, bladder and bowel dysfunction, cardiovascular disease, epilepsy, psychiatric illness, impairment of hearing and vision, and computational neuromodulation. Experts describe the neural networks involved and the appropriate surgical approaches, provide clinical guidelines, technical descriptions of implanted devices, proposals for refinements and personal views on future prospects of the field. The immense therapeutic potential is highlighted which arises from the close collaboration of biomedical scientists and biotechnological engineers in this area and signifies the transition from the conventional "resective" surgery to functional neuroprosthetic surgery (Vol. I) and neural networks surgery (Vol. II) which uses neuro-engineering to improve impaired neural function.
Vol. 2 describes the techniques and procedures applied by direct a) contact with the central nervous system or cranial nerves, in order to modulate the function of neural networks as in the case of motor cortext stimulation for pain or vagus nerve stimulation for epilepsy, or b) in deeply located structures inside the nervous system, in order to alter the function on specific networks as in the case of deep brain stimulation for Parkinson s disease.

Navigational Surgery of the Facial Skeleton

Navigational Surgery of the Facial Skeleton

Springer | ISBN:3540223576 | Edition - 2007-01 | PDF | 170 pages | 11 MB | Rapidshare & Megaupload

Computer-assisted techniques in the surgery of the facial skeleton including the skull base are depicted for the very first time in this atlas of navigational surgery. Experienced surgeons as well as trainees will benefit from the detailed and well-illustrated information on the use of computer technology in clinical routine, accompanied by the experimental basis of intraoperative accuracy. The authors' inventions in the field of non-invasive registration have led to widespread use of computer-assisted simulation and navigationa surgery in this field, so the time is right for a comprehensive publication on the topic. The interdisciplinary approach brings together maxillofacial surgeons, plastic surgeons, ENT surgeons, and neurosurgeons.New methods of non-invasive referencing and the use of virtual models in the field of oral and cranio-maxillofacial surgery are demonstrated. Clinical cases illustrate the practical use of this new technique.

Sperm Counts: Overcome by Man's Most Precious Fluid

Number Of Pages: 256
Publication Date: 2007-07-01
ISBN-10 / ASIN: 0814757189
ISBN-13 / EAN: 9780814757185
Binding: Hardcover
Book Description:

A clever yet comprehensive look at the substance of manhood. Moore goes where few scholars dare to tread, and uses bodily fluids as a revealing window through which to observe the current nature of uality and gender relations.
Michael S. Kimmel, author of Manhood in America: A Cultural Study

"In this intriguing feminist sociological account of sperm, Moore takes a subject we think we knew all about and proceeds to examine the multi-dimensional facets of its cultural subtexts. What is so unusual about this provocative book is the way Moore meshes history, technology, medicine, criminology, gender studies, children's books, and porn in her depiction of sperm as a manifestation of masculinity. Sperm Counts is witty, erudite, and informative a gem of social constructionist scholarship."
Judith Lorber, author of Paradoxes of Gender and Breaking the Bowls

Moore has crafted a smart and surprisingly funny book about semen. Original and refreshing, Sperm Counts follows the little guys through laboratories, childrens books, work, crime scenes, and bodies, illuminating varied meanings and representations of manhood and masculinity. This is engaged feminist scholarship at its best.
Monica J. Casper, author of The Making of the Unborn Patient: A Social Anatomy of Fetal Surgery

It has been called sperm, semen, seed, cum, jizz, spunk, gentlemen's relish, and splooge. But however the "tacky, opaque liquid that comes out of the penis" is described, the very act of defining "sperm" and "semen" depends on your point of view. For Lisa Jean Moore, how sperm comes to be known is based on who defines it (a scientist vs. a defense witness, for example), under what social circumstances it is found (a doctor's office vs. a crime scene), and for what purposes it will be used (in vitro fertilization vs. DNA analysis). Examining semen historically, medically, and culturally, Sperm Counts is a penetrating exploration of its meaning and power.

Using a "follow that sperm" approach, Moore shows how representations of sperm and semen are always in flux, tracing their twisting journeys from male reproductive glands to headline news stories and presidential impeachment trials. Much like the fluid of semen itself can leak onto fabrics and into bodies, its meanings seep into our consciousness over time. Moore's analytic lens yields intriguing observations of how sperm is "spent" and "reabsorbed" as it spurts, swims, and careens through penises, vaginas, test tubes, labs, families, cultures, and politics.

Drawn from fifteen years of research, Sperm Counts examines historical and scientific documents, children's "facts of life" books, pornography, the Internet, forensic transcripts and worker narratives to explain how semen got so complicated. Among other things, understanding how we produce, represent, deploy and institutionalize semen-biomedically, socially and culturally-provides valuable new perspectives on the changing social position of men and the evolving meanings of masculinity. Ultimately, as Moore reveals, sperm is intimately involved in not only the physical reproduction of males and females, but in how we come to understand ourselves as men and women.

Book Description:

Now in its sixth best-selling edition, The Human Nervous System: Structure and Function continues to combine clear prose with high quality tailor-made medical illustrations to achieve for neuroscientists and medical students a succinct explanation of the fundamental principles behind the organization, structure, and function of the human nervous system. The distinguished authors take advantage of the many recent advances in neurobiology and molecular biology to include new coverage of such critical discoveries as stem cells, apoptosis, the role of the amygdala in stress, and the significance of dendritic spines. Among the core topics given expanded treatments are pain and pain pathways, the visual system, development and growth of the nervous system, the chemical senses of smell and taste, and the limbic system. There is also fresh material on neuronal stem cells, the auditory and vestibular systems, neurotransmitters as the chemical messengers of certain brain circuits, the cerebellum, and lesions of the spinal nerves, spinal cord, and brainstem. The superb illustrations are designed to extract and visually highlight the essence of the neuroanatomical features embedded in the complexities of the nervous system, thereby allowing the reader to match the structures of the brain with conventional X-ray pictures, and CT, MRI, and PET scans.

Average Rating: 3.5

This four-volume set is a comprehensive guide to the diagnosis and management of neurosurgical problems, signs and symptoms, diagnostic methods, prognoses, and cutting-edge operative techniques, as well as anatomy and physiology. This 5th Edition is reorganized to follow a more logical and modern approach. "There is no doubt that Neurological Surgery is the grand dame of the major neurosurgical textbooks...and is recommended without hesitation."--JAMA, review of previous edition.

Review:
Great tomes with omissions
It is surprising to see that these major reference tomes lack details in numerous areas. Little is mentioned on normal pressure hydrocephalus, tarlov cyst, cysticocercosis... Discussion on cartotid endarterectomy lacks details on the controversy of the various trials. The same applies to methylprednisolone on spinal cord injury.... Very often illustrations and tables are meagre. Overall the quality varies from chapter to chapter, someimes from v good to inadequate. A disappointment.


Review:
disappointed by the 5th edition
To my surprise, there are lots of chapters are quoted as a whole chapters from another books, the editor-in-chief should had known this. When you submit a paper to a certain journal, you had been asked to be original by never being a part of other journal,so why not as the Bible of our loving Youman's series.


Review:
The best General Neurosurgery work in all respects
This multi-volume work combines the best detailed commentary, survey and education on Neurosurgery that I have found. By the very nature of the subject it must and does include much of Neurology and Neuroanatomy. It has an extraordinary breadth and scope. It is certainly the best starting point for Neurosurgery information/answers and in some respects you may need to look no further. While this series does discuss in substantial detail Neuroimaging I would suggest combining it with the Orrison Two Volume Neuroimaging set. Together they provide a tremendous wealth of information to aid in diagnosis, testing, and treatment. These publications "Youmans" and the "Orrison" books are so well known in the field that this "review" is only useful for those who might be unfamiliar with NeuroSurgery and NeuroImaging. Their authority is unquestioned and accepted by all practitioners. The education these books provide in both fundamental concepts and advanced procedures and interpretation is vast. However the Youmans set alone gives significant exposure to Neuroimaging and Neurotesting. You actually have to use the books to appreciate the assets they provide. Over time you will realize that they address virturally every question that may arise or with the voluminous references show you where to go. This publication is the result of a vast effort by many practitioners and so reflects a combined expertise greater than most other publications. The cost of the publications is difficult but the return is well worth it. I have not found any Neurosurgery problems left untouched by Youmans and together with Orrison they are a powerful weapon. If our hospitals and facilities could only implement all this knowledge much suffering could be eliminated or reduced. Unfortunately my experience has been that the total knowledge represented by these books is way ahead of the medical care provided to many patients. Certainly every Neurosurgeon should own these books and every person needing such references could do no better. Kenny ...

Book Description:
Neuroblastoma is a medical enigma. As a childhood neoplasm arising from neural crest cells, it is characterized by diverse clinical behaviors ranging from spontaneous remission to rapid tumor progression and death. Although clinical outcome can be predicted to a large extent by the stage of disease and the age at diagnosis, an in-depth understanding of its clinico-pathological behavior, now greatly aided by sophisticated molecular genetic profiling, will improve diagnostic precision and refine risk-based therapies. Comprehensive international efforts have advanced our understanding of tumor biology and improved the clinical management of children with neuroblastoma. This book reviews our current understanding of the genes and biological pathways that contribute to neuroblastoma pathogenesis, modern risk-based treatment approaches for these patients, and recent advances in biologically based therapy. It provides a concise up-to-date reference for practitioners, students, and researchers.
