This book provides an introduction to the relationship between
economics and ethics, explaining why ethics enters economics, how
ethics affects individual economic behavior and the interactions of
individuals, and how ethics is important in evaluating the
performance of economies and of economic policies.

Review: Within its chosen frame of reference the authors have made
a substantial contribution. - Economic & Political Weekly Dutt
and Wilber provide a compact yet comprehensive introduction to
economics and ethics that thoroughly engages neoclassical
economics, distinguishes different approaches to ethics, and
discusses such fundamental issues as justice and equality. This is
an excellent book, and is highly recommended for teaching and as a
resource for scholars. - John B. Davis, Marquette University and
University of Amsterdam This is a good and helpful introduction to
the normative dimensions of economic theory and policy. - Albino
Barrera, Providence College 'Wilbur and Dutt bring a wealth of
knowledge and humanity to the task of revitalizing the art of
economics. This book provides a nuanced and timely account of the
importance of ethics to our understanding of economics and public
policies. The reader is in thoughtful and trustworthy hands.' -
Jonathan B. Wight, Professor of Economics at the University of
Richmond and author of the economic novel Saving Adam Smith: A Tale
of Wealth, Transformation, and Virtue.
This volume provides a compact, concise and up-to-date resource for
pathologists and clinicians who are involved in women's health. The
book summarizes the incidence, epidemiology and risk factors for
cervical adenocarcinoma, while reviewing the normal histology of
the cervix and glandular lesions of the cervix. The cytological
appearance of glandular lesions of the cervix and their mimics is
amply illustrated and discussed. Management of glandular lesions is
also outlined. Written by authorities in the field, Glandular
Lesions of the Uterine Cervix: Cytopathology with Histologic
Correlates is of great value to cytopathologists, surgical
pathologists, gynecologic oncologists and surgeons.
Since the publication of the Third Series Fascicle of the Uterine
Corpus nearly thirty years ago, molecular discoveries have deepened
our understanding of epithelial, mesenchymal, and mixed mullerian
tumors of the uterus, fueling a new and still evolving
classification of the different categories of uterine neoplasms.
Enormous insights have been made to refine the classification of
the different subtypes of endometrial carcinoma linked to important
prognostic and therapeutic implications. At the same time,
molecular findings have allowed for the discovery of familial
syndromes associated with uterine corpus neoplasms, and
identification of patients at increased risk for developing
specific tumors, with the subsequent implementation of genetic
counseling and appropriate treatment guidelines. Molecular
underpinnings have also assisted in the development of new and
potentially more predictive morphologic criteria for endometrial
preneoplasia, namely the endometrial intraepithelial neoplasia (or
EIN) system. In this Uterine Corpus Fascicle, there is an increased
emphasis on the cytopathologic (intraoperative, exfoliative, or
fine needle aspiration) and molecular features that are important
in diagnosis and prognosis. What does not change from the three
previous series, however, is the goal of providing the reader with
thorough, concise, and up-to-date information on the nomenclature
and classification; epidemiologic, clinical, and pathogenetic
features; and, most importantly, guidance in the diagnosis of the
tumors and tumorlike lesions of all major organ systems and body
sites. Order the Tumors of the Uterine Corpus and Trophoblastic
Diseases now to take advantage of these new discoveries and
techniques for diagnosing and treating these types of tumors.
This book offers clear, up-to-date guidance on how to report
cytologic findings in cervical, vaginal and anal samples in
accordance with the 2014 Bethesda System Update. The new edition
has been expanded and revised to take into account the advances and
experience of the past decade. A new chapter has been added, the
terminology and text have been updated, and various terminological
and morphologic questions have been clarified. In addition, new
images are included that reflect the experience gained with
liquid-based cytology since the publication of the last edition in
2004. Among more than 300 images, some represent classic examples
of an entity while others illustrate interpretative dilemmas,
borderline cytomorphologic features or mimics of epithelial
abnormalities. The Bethesda System for Reporting Cervical Cytology,
with its user-friendly format, is a "must have" for pathologists,
cytopathologists, pathology residents, cytotechnologists, and
clinicians.
