O’Neil, Doody’s Review Service, April, 2011)“The book is aimed at general pathologists, but there is sufficient information and detail to keep the specialist pathologist happy as well. … The book is well illustrated, with a mix of gross photographs and micrographs, and useful line diagrams demonstrating early placental development, as well as photographic demonstrations of various techniques for examination. … Overall, this is a succinct and practical bench manual, which I would commend to anyone involved in the examination of placentas.” (Caroline Gannon, Bulletin of the Royal College of Pathologists, October, 2011)Table of ContentsEvaluation of the First Trimester Products of Conception.- Evaluation of the Second Trimester Products of Conception.- Macroscopic Evaluation of the Second and Third Trimester Placenta.- Microscopic Evaluation of the Second and Third Trimester Placenta.- Early Placental Development.- Chorionic Villi: Histology and Villous Development.- Overview and Microscopic Survey of the Placenta.- Extravillous Trophoblast, Trophoblast Invasion and Fibrinoid.- Multiple Gestation: General Aspects.- Multiple Gestation: Twin Variants and Related Conditions.- Abortion and Chromosomal Anomalies.- Postpartum Hemorrhage, Subinvolution of the Placental Site and Placenta Accreta.- Placental Shape Aberrations.- Pathology of the Fetal Membranes.- Pathology of the Umbilical Cord.- Infectious Diseases.- Maternal Diseases Complicating Pregnancy.- Placental Malperfusion.- Miscellaneous Placental Lesions.- Placental Abnormalities in Fetal Conditions.- Fetal Thrombotic Vasculopathy.- Neoplasms.- Hydatidiform moles.- Choriocarcinoma.- Lesions of ExtravillousTtrophoblast.- Legal Considerations.- New Directions.- index.

  • Sydney University Press Norman Haire and the Study of Sex

    15 in stock

    Book SynopsisA star debater at school, Norman Haire had always wanted to be an actor. Forced to study medicine, he followed his other passion: saving the world from sexual misery. When he arrived in London in 1919 he was a poor Jewish outsider from Australia. By 1930 he had a flourishing gynaecology practice in Harley Street, a chauffeur-driven Rolls Royce and a country house. His parties were attended by the medical, intellectual and cultural elite.As a prominent sexologist and a campaigner for birth control, Haire took a leading role in the world's first international conference on birth control in 1922 and organised, with Dora Russell, the World League for Sexual Reform's highly successful 1929 Congress in London. He lectured in America, Germany, France and Spain, and wrote and edited many accessible books on sex education.In 1940 Haire returned to Australia where he attracted a loyal following, but was also hounded by the security service. The ABC Board was censured in parliament for choosing him as the key speaker in a population debate, and his weekly advice column in the magazine Woman was strongly opposed by the Catholic Church. Peter Coleman called Haire 'one of Australia's most famous freethinkers and sex reformers'. This biography pays a tribute to this tenacious, humane, witty, innovative and brave man's contribution to birth control, sexology and human rights history.Trade Review'[Wyndham] adds a wealth of detailed research to the narrative about this period in the history of sexology and the status of those who took their place in the forefront of a movement that aimed to counter repression and prudery with rational and humanistic approach to sex and sexuality.' -- Gina Perry -- Journal of the History of the Behavioral Sciences'Wyndham has created a fascinating account of a remarkable Australian who made his mark overseas in medicine. Norman Haire, born Norman Zions in Sydney in 1892, was an internationally known gynaecologist and sexologist ... ' -- Clive Moore -- Health and History'Wyndham does a fine job recovering the life and times of Haire, covering aspects of the private as well as the public man.' -- Professor Stephen Garton -- Journal of the History of Sexuality'This fine biography of one of the western world's most tenacious reformers in the field of birth control and sexual reform is replete with arcane, yet useful, information. For example, Wyndham reminds us that George Bernard Shaw had the unique distinction of winning both a Nobel Prize and an Oscar.' -- Ross Fitzgerald -- Sydney Institute Quarterly'Wyndham paints a vivid picture of the politics seething within the birth control arena in the UK in the inter-war period.' -- Jennie Stuart -- Australian HumanistTable of ContentsFigures Acknowledgements Foreword by The Hon.

    Book SynopsisThis book brings together an international collection of experts in reproductive ethics, law, disability studies, and medicine to explore the challenging future of reproduction and children. From the medical to the social and from the financial to the legal, the authors explore the expanding impact of reproductive genetics on our society. New advances in genetic technologies are revolutionizing the practice of reproductive medicine. We have expanded our ability to detect genetic changes in embryos and fetuses in ways that potentially allow to identify, treat, or prevent a growing range of diseases. The development of gene-editing technologies raises questions about the possibility of removing disease-causing variants from embryos before pregnancy implantation. The growing sophistication of prenatal genomic sequencing offers us glimpses into the whole genome of the developing fetus. And, the increasingly sophisticated science of 'gene matching' allows us greater and greater foreknowledge of how the genomes of two individuals will combine in a future child. This is an indispensable book on the newest developments in bioethics caused by the sciences.Chapter 5 is available open access under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International License via link.springer.com.Table of ContentsPart 1: Clinical Background.- Chapter 1.

  • Springer Nature Switzerland AG Endometriosis and Adenomyosis: Global Perspectives Across the Lifespan

    15 in stock

    Book SynopsisAlthough endometriosis and adenomyosis are often assessed under the same umbrella, the epidemiology, clinical manifestations and management strategies of endometriosis and adenomyosis occur differently during the life cycle of a woman. Endometriosis can be diagnosed at many points across the lifespan, including adolescence and the climacterium, as well as pregnancy. Being associated with potential adverse health effects, different clinical presentations requiring different therapeutic approaches render it imperative to tailor management strategies for each period of the lifespan: in utero and early life, puberty and adolescence, reproductive years, pregnancy, late reproductive age, and the menopause. This book provides comprehensive insight into the general aspects, diagnosis and treatment modalities of endometriosis and adenomyosis in all stages of a woman’s life - a unique element of its approach. Thematic sections discuss the basics of diagnosis and management of both endometriosis and adenomyosis from birth through menopause, including aspects of fertility preservation, sexual dysfunction, psychological considerations and prevention. The current pharmaceutical approaches and efficacy are presented, including progestins, oral contraceptives, aromatase inhibitors and GnRH agonists and antagonists. The final section provides current practice guidelines for the management of both conditions as well as an investigation into future research and clinical strategies. Taking a truly global perspective, Endometriosis and Adenomyosis will be a valuable resource for reproductive endocrinologists, infertility specialists and obstetricians and gynecologists worldwide.
