This seminal work on intestinal surgery is a must-read for medical professionals. Gould's meticulous descriptions of surgical procedures and his analysis of the underlying anatomical and physiological principles are still relevant today. The author's careful attention to detail and his innovative approaches to surgery make this book a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of medicine.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.This work is in the "public domain in the United States of America, and possibly other nations.

Books on cleft surgery are usually very specific and written for experts in the field. A basic surgical learning manual on the techniques of cleft surgery has been missing on the market so far. Surgical atlases do not contain all surgical steps and make it difficult for beginners in cleft surgery to understand the surgical concept in the operating room. The technique of cleft surgery is often passed on directly from teacher to student without using a didactically elaborated teaching concept.This book closes precisely this gap. Thus, cleft surgery is presented systematically - with first steps on an innovative training model, didactically meaningful and with numerous detailed illustrations. Each chapter begins with information on the historical background. As a start, there is a brief description on how the established surgical techniques became standard and which considerations led to these concepts. Then anatomical basics, as well as preoperative considerations are presented. Elaborate schematic drawings and illustrations are used for this purpose. Each surgical technique is then explained and shown step by step with numerous pictures. A simple training model offers the opportunity to simulate and practice lip closure techniques step by step. Finally, there are expert tips and recommendations for further reading. The book presents an international standard for all surgeons learning cleft surgery. However, it can also be helpful for experts in the field, e. g. for looking up concepts in rarer cleft types such as lateral facial clefts.

The book is a compact yet comprehensive practical resource that highlights all must-know information on non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). Covering the major issues dominating the field, this book offers a broad vision on NAFLD using key data for a deep and thorough understanding of the latest diagnostic methods, treatment options, potential complications, and disease management strategies to improve patient outcomes. The volume bridges the trans-disciplinary divide between hepatologists, cardiologists, nephrologists, psychiatrists, oncologists and dermatologists in order to cover the complex management of NAFLD in a single volume. It operates under a modern definition of NAFLD that acknowledges the range of presentations related to extrahepatic complications that hepatologists see in daily practice, while also delving into unanswered questions and future directions regarding treatment options. Offering practical, clinical guidance in addition to capturing the new promising therapeutic approaches in the pipeline, this book is an essential reference for clinicians, researchers and students.

This book explains more than 60 types of segmentectomy and 4 types of completion lobectomy with plentiful figures to explain the intraoperative findings and anatomy of the lung. It also provides videos to help readers recognize the tricks and techniques that are not explained in still images. The book is organized into four parts following the anatomy of the lung; right upper lobe, right lower lobe, left upper lobe, and left lower lobe. Each chapter goes into detail on each segment and offers the latest devices and procedures. Although segmentectomy is known as curative surgery for early-stage small lung cancers, not many surgeons can perform with accuracy due to its anatomical complexity. Therefore, the purpose of Anatomical Segmentectomy for Lung Cancer is to share the knowledge and experiences of performing the surgeries and to further enhance the techniques by creating a foundation for building on to this knowledge. It is a valuable resource for thoracic surgeons interested in curative surgery for small lung cancers and for those who wish to stay up to date on the latest techniques.

"A gripping cautionary tale about the dangers of mainstreaming fringe ideas before turning them into federal policy, We Want Them Infected is damning, indispensable, and one-of-a-kind. It is likely to become canonical." Christopher LaneWriter on Side Effects @PsychTodayMember, Center for Bioethics and Medical Humanities>Praise For We Want Them InfectedOne of the untold stories of the COVID pandemic in the US is the role of medical and public health professionals in spreading disinformation, pushing for policies that exacerbate the virus' spread, and drive people away from important interventions, particularly vaccines, which blunt the deadly effects of SARSCOV2. Because of professional courtesy, solidarity or just sheer cowardice, many inside the professions have refused to take on these frauds, egomaniacs, purveyors of sickness and suffering in white coats. Jonathan Howard's book We Want Them Infected, though, names names. In painstaking detail, he builds an indictment of these men and women who have blood on their hands, abusing the trust of millions to peddle lies and falsehoods. This book is one for the ages, making it hard to sweep the complicity of these individuals with the virus under the carpet, leaving a record for the future, a cautionary tale for all of us.Gregg Gonsalves, PhDAssociate Professor, Yale School of Public HealthAssociate Professor (adjunct), Yale Law SchoolThe legacy of the COVID-19 pandemic will haunt our nation (United States) for many years. This is true not only because of the horrific toll of more than one million American deaths, and those who lost loved ones, but also several failed public health policies that contributed to America's suffering. In "We Want Them Infected" Dr. Howard tells a dark story of how spurious concepts of herd immunity may have contributed to the spread of COVID-19 in the United States (and perhaps globally). His book provides important information about how we might limit the death and destruction of future virus pandemics.Dr. Peter Hotez, MD, PhD, DSc (hon), FASTMH, FAAPTexas Children's Hospital: Endowed Chair of Tropical Pediatrics Co-Director, Texas Children's Hospital Center for Vaccine Development Baylor College of Medicine: Dean, National School of Tropical Medicine Professor, Departments of Pediatrics, Molecular Virology & Microbiology Health Policy Scholar Rice University, Baker Institute Fellow in Disease & Poverty, Texas A&M University, Faculty-Senior Fellow, Hagler Inst for Advanced Study & Scowcroft Institute of Intl Affairs
