Book SynopsisOne of the most notable trends in biomedical science in recent years has been the increasing use of molecular techniques as part of the diagnosis of disease. As such, there is a growing need for students to understand the technological basis of molecular analysis and to have a comprehensive appreciation of their use in diagnosis. Combining coverage of molecular techniques with their application to diagnostic pathology, this book provides students with a thorough and up to date appreciation of the scope of molecular analysis, the principles of the technology used, and thematic diagnostic application. As part of the Fundamentals of Biomedical Science series, the book provides a unique blend of theory and practice, featuring a range of learning features to help students assimilate the information presented quickly and effectively. It will be relevant to undergraduate students on a wide variety of biomedical pathways, cutting across traditional discipline boundaries to provide a unified ovTable of ContentsIntroduction 1: Sample preparation 2: The molecular laboratory 3: Intact sample analysis 4: Homogenate sample analysis 5: Sequencing technologies 6: Molecular analysis and interpreting molecular data 7: Recent technical advances in molecular analysis 8: Haemopoietic diseases 1 - leukaemias 9: Haemopoietic diseases 2 - lymphoproliferative disorders 10: Breast cancer 11: Epithelial tumours and melanoma 12: Mesenchymal tumours 13: Pre-natal and neo-natal testing

Book SynopsisWhy did someone die? Should someone be held accountable? Can medical examiners unmask the perfect crime? Examining the world of medical examiners, this title presents the intricate web of pathological, social, legal, and moral issues in which they operate. It focuses on how medical examiners speak to the living on behalf of the dead.Trade Review"Fascinating, carefully crafted, and very illuminating. Strongly grounded in the three years Stefan Timmermans spent shadowing medical examiners, Postmortem also draws extensively on written materials about forensic pathology, medical examiners, the coroners who preceded them, and especially on the court records of the infamous 'nanny trial.' It is remarkably rich and gives us new insight into how we moderns manage death." - Carol Heimer, Northwestern University"

Book SynopsisTrade Review“In this smart and sophisticated book, Bassiri shows us how an economic style of reasoning came to permeate psychiatry at the turn of the century. Not only were economic and psychiatric metaphors constantly entangled with one another but madness itself became central to economic rationalization. This book offers us a radically new perspective on the history of psychiatry. It also puts forth a fascinating philosophy of psychiatry which places irrationalism at the heart of modern capitalism.” -- Camille Robcis, Columbia University“For too long, we have accepted a contrast between madness and reason and all the more so between madness and economics. But Bassiri brilliantly demonstrates how our conceptions of madness and moral value are shot through with economic ideas, that in modern societies madness has had a fully economic rationality, that this economic rationality matters for social thought as much as for psychiatric treatments. In a historical epistemology that forces us to reread classics of modern psychology as much as relearn its story through half-forgotten intellectuals, he offers something truly original: a theory of suffering amid capitalist enterprise, and of the ways in which we can imagine a form of care unbound by a century and a half of transactional thinking.” -- Stefanos Geroulanos, New York University

Book SynopsisUncovers a powerful relationship between pathology and money: beginning in the nineteenth century, the severity of mental illness was measured against a patient's economic productivity. Madness and Enterprise reveals the economic norms embedded within psychiatric thinking about mental illness in the North Atlantic world. Over the course of the nineteenth century, various forms of madness were subjected to a style of psychiatric reasoning that was preoccupied with money. Psychiatrists across Western Europe and the United States attributed financial and even moral value to an array of pathological conditions, such that some mental disorders were seen as financial assets and others as economic liabilities. By turning to economic conduct and asking whether potential patients appeared capable of managing their financial affairs or even generating wealth, psychiatrists could often bypass diagnostic uncertainties about a person's mental state. Through an exploration of the intertwined hTrade Review“In this smart and sophisticated book, Bassiri shows us how an economic style of reasoning came to permeate psychiatry at the turn of the century.

Book SynopsisTrade Review"This is an excellent standalone reference for neoplastic bone pathology. It is comprehensive, but the text is clear and easy to understand. It excels in incorporating the genomic discoveries when describing each tumor entity and frequently illustrates genetic findings with helpful diagrams. Overall, this is an excellent contribution to the field of bone pathology and it will make a wonderful comprehensive reference in an institutional, departmental, or personal library." Reviewed by Kyle D Perry, MD (University of Manitoba College of Medicine) Doody's Score: 98 - 5 Stars "I unreservedly recommend this book for anyone serious about bone pathology. Although there are other references that are adequate for day-to-day use, Dorfman and Czerniak's Bone Tumors is the essential reference for the serious practitioner and belongs on the desk of anyone who signs out bone pathology." Reviewed by Andrea T. Deyrup, M.D., Ph.D. (Department of Pathology, Duke University Medical Center) "The second edition is as lavishly and beautifully illustrated as the first edition with the text as cogent as the first edition and more informative in content because of the inclusion on the growing influence (since the previous edition) of molecular pathology in the diagnosis and treatment of skeletal tumors. The high quality of illustrations, comprehensive epidemiology of bone tumors and the practical multi-disciplinary approach that pervades the text makes it of as much value to the orthopedic surgeon and radiologist, as it would the pathologist, confronted with bone tumors and tumor like lesions, be they on a regular or sporadic basis." Reviewed by Murali Sundaram, MD, FRCR (Cleveland Clinic) "In my opinion this book is without doubt the most comprehensive, up to date and beautifully illustrated text book available on bone tumours.

I have no doubt that also the 11th edition will be found right next to the (optical or virtual) microscope of most if not all practicing pathologists. Highly recommended! 2018 BMA Awards: Winner, Pathology "This edition marks the start of a new era for this long-standing book. Fans of the single-authored book can rest easy, as the authors have done a wonderful job of maintaining the pragmatic approach of earlier editions. Although extensive revisions and updates have been made, they augment rather than replace the original voice of the book. Surgical pathology has grown increasingly subspecialized throughout the years, but this book still provides great value as a general reference. The information provided on each disease is enough to not only diagnose, but intelligently discuss the topic and pursue further reading.

This is an ideal book for those starting to learn renal pathology as residents or even medical students. On the other hand, it also could serve well diagnostic pathologists who do not see too many renal biopsies in their daily practice or those who would like to learn about new developments in nephropathology. In its updated and expanded form, this book should be part pathology departmental libraries as well as central medical libraries." ©Doody's Review Service, 2022, Ivan Damjanov, MD,PhD (University of Kansas Medical Center)Table of Contents1.
