Auch wenn zunehmend minimal-invasive Verfahren bei Gefäßeingriffen angewandt werden, sind konventionelle Operationsverfahren für manche Indikationen nach wie vor die Methode der Wahl. In dem Band haben die Autoren zu allen operativ zugänglichen Gefäßprovinzen die einzelnen Operationstechniken der offenen Gefäßchirurgie, ihre Varianten und ihre Besonderheiten zusammengefasst. Für schwierige Situationen zeigen sie Alternativverfahren und Auswege auf. Der Band bietet über 400 Zeichnungen, die sich auf die wesentlichen Informationen konzentrieren.

The modern welfare state is indeed one of the greatest achievements of the post-war 20th century. With its key aims of eradicating the five giant social ills of Want, Ignorance, Disease, Squalor and Idleness, it aimed to providing a minimum standard of living, with all people of working age paying a weekly contribution; in return, benefits would be paid to anyone who was sick, unemployed, retired or widowed. The modern welfare state, therefore, is about maintaining a delicate equilibrium between dependent social groups on the one hand and the active working classes on the other. In the case of old-age security, this balance is being achieved (or not) by the so-called Generation Contract. This social pact is more of an implicit, unwritten and unspecified social contract. This ground-breaking book demonstrates how countries are addressing population-ageing challenges in depth, using the case study of Austria to gain the required complexity and differentiation in a comparative European framework of empirical evidence. This is a broad social science study in political economy and sociology, not an economic analysis. Though focusing on pensions, it centres on the (im)balance between work and non-work, issues of health, work ability, employability, and benefit receipt from old-age security to disability allowance. It will be required reading for all sociologists and social policy experts and academics working within this area.
