Cambridge University Press The Neurology Riddle Book
Book SynopsisIf you love neurology, chances are that you also love a good puzzle. Providing a fun and refreshing alternative method of learning and reviewing neurological syndromes, conditions and diseases, this engaging book is perfect for those who love both neurology and riddles. 150 four-line riddles describe common neurodegenerative diseases and movement disorders as well as rare but commonly board-tested stroke syndromes, seizure disorders and infectious diseases. Each riddle contains cryptic clues such as patient demographic, clinical presentation and underlying pathophysiology for each condition and there are hints in case you get stuck. On the following page you will find the answer to the riddle along with a complete description of the condition, including the history of the disease, pathophysiology, clinical presentation, diagnostics, treatment and prognosis to aid learning. For even more challenging neuroscience puzzles, consider the Neuroanatomy Riddle Book, which includes riddles about clinically-relevant neuroanatomical structures.

Johns Hopkins University Press Primate Comparative Anatomy
Book SynopsisWhy do orangutan arms closely resemble human arms? What is the advantage to primates of having long limbs? Why do primates have forward-facing eyes? This book answers these questions.Trade ReviewGebo's consistent focus throughout the book [is] on how anatomical differences relate mechanically to differences in function. Subsequent well-illustrated chapters discuss the hard anatomy of the primate body-heads, teeth, backs, forelimbs, and hind limbs from both phylogenetic and functional perspectives. -- John G. Fleagle Evolutionary Anthropology A nearly perfect introduction to a complex and fascinating subject. Choice Synthesizing the extensive and detailed anatomical literature related to primate bony morphology is no small task, and Gebo does a fantastic job of summarizing important anatomies and oddities, and how these relate to functional demands... The next generation of scholars learning from this textbook will almost certainly come to the same realization as Darwin, Cuvier, and Linnaeus--that comparative anatomy is essential for understanding our place within primates. New Biological Books This book serves as a good, basic introduction to primate anatomy, and there are many attractive, large illustrations throughout the book to accompany anatomical descriptions. Journal of Mammology Daniel Gebo has produced a text that can only be described as invaluable to the researcher, academic, conservationist, primatologist or student of evolutionary studies.

Springer International Publishing AG Biomedical Visualisation: Volume 12 ‒ The
Book SynopsisThis image-rich book explores the practice as well as the theory of visual representation and presents us with the importance of designing appropriate images for communication to specific target audiences. This includes the appropriate choice of high-tech digital or low-tech analogue technologies in image-making for communication within the medical education, biological research and community health contexts. We hear from medical students about the value of using clay modelling in their understanding of anatomy, from educators and curriculum designers about visual affordances in medical education and from a community-driven project in South Africa about their innovative use of locally designed images and culture-specific narratives for communicating important health information to marginalised communities. A chapter explores the evolution of scientific visualisation and representation of big data to a variety of audiences, and another presents the innovative 3D construction of internal cellular structures from microscopic 2D slices. As we embrace blended learning in anatomy education, a timely chapter prompts us to think further about and contribute to the ongoing discourse around important ethical considerations in the use and sharing of digital images of body donors. This book will appeal to educators, medical illustrators, curriculum designers, post-graduate students, community health practitioners and biomedical researchers.Table of Contentssee attachment

Springer International Publishing AG Atlas of Anatomy of the Peripheral Nerves: The
Book SynopsisThis innovative atlas focuses on peripheral nerves and provides a brand new approach compared to regular anatomy books. Using a modern 3D approach, it offers an alternative to conventional anatomical structures. It reviews all the anatomy and the morphology of these structures from an original point of view. In these three-dimensional diagrams, as well as in the watercolor drawings enhanced with a 3D inlay, each type of nerve is depicted in a minute detail. The atlas simplifies the anatomy and make it easy and understandable by allowing readers to develop a mental “real-time 3D GPS”. The integration of MRI sections related to the drawings and the descriptions of the main nerve injuries provide medical students with a flexible but effective transition to the radiological interpretation and furthers the clinical learning process. After a detailed evaluation of the morphofunctional anatomy of the peripheral nerves, the authors present a collection of relevant data on neuromuscular transmission, both from classical and recent literature, ranging from the central and peripheral nervous system to the effector muscle. This information offers a basis for understanding the physiology, the pathology, and the repair prospects of peripheral nerves from a purely theoretical point of view.The book is divided into three main parts: - Fundamental notions: from immunohistochemistry to limb innervation- The upper limb: the brachial plexus and related peripheral nerves- The lower limb: the lumbosacral plexus and related peripheral nervesThis atlas also features 261 outstanding full-colour 2D and 3D illustrations. Each picture has been designed in 2D and 3D with a combination of the original editor’s personal drawings/paintings and 3D-modeling tools. This book is a valuable resource for anyone studying medicine, anaesthesiology, neurosurgery, spine surgery, pain, radiology or rheumatology and is also of high interest to the whole medical community in general.Table of ContentsLIST OF CONTRIBUTORSFOREWORDACKNOWLEDGEMENTSANATOMY PREAMBLE ABOUT THIS BOOKCONTENTSPart I : Morphological and functional anatomy of the peripheral nerve1.

Springer-Verlag Berlin and Heidelberg GmbH & Co. KG Basiswissen Biochemie: mit Pathobiochemie
Book SynopsisBiochemie kompakt PLUS Pathobiochemie PLUS Klinikfälle War der "kleine Löffler" früher ein "Plus" ist er heute ein "Muss". In der Lehre und insbesondere den Prüfungen sind die Zusammenhänge zwischen biochemischen Grundlagen, Pathobiochemie und klinischen Krankheitsbildern mehr denn je gefragt. Eintauchen in die Biochemie bedeutet, das Zusammenwirken von Molekülen, Stoffwechselwegen, Organen und Zellen zu verstehen. Sind die grundlegenden Mechanismen erst mal verinnerlicht, ist der Schritt zur Pathobiochemie und den relevanten klinischen Krankheitsbildern ein Kinderspiel. Und das liefert das neue "Basiswissen Biochemie" gleich mit: Pathobiochemie-Boxen unterstreichen die biochemischen Zusammenhänge beim Menschen. Die extra herausgegriffenen und ausführlich erläuterten klinikrelevanten Krankheitsbilder illustrieren, was passiert, wenn irgendwo ein Enzym fehlt oder das Zusammenspiel zwischen Stoffwechselwegen nicht so funktioniert wie es soll. Der "kleine Löffler" im neuen Format überzeugt durch seine bewährte inhaltliche Qualität und die Verknüpfung von biochemischem, pathobiochemischem und klinischem Wissen - alles was Sie für Kurs, schriftliche und mündliche Prüfung benötigen.
