detailed tick identification chapter; an updated biosafety chapter;
and more Contains significantly updated information throughout,
including new content on artificial intelligence, whole-slide and
mass spectrometry imaging, and metagenomic next-generation
sequencing Discusses the best approach for diagnostic work-up and

positives Details the increasing use of molecular diagnostics in
infectious disease pathology Provides updates on taxonomy and
nomenclature across all classes of infectious microorganisms
(bacteria, fungi, parasites, viruses) along with new genomic data

This unique book captures the rise of New York's passionately
musical Irish-Catholics and provides a compelling history of early
New York City. The Unstoppable Irish follows the changing fortunes
of New York's Irish Catholics, commencing with the evacuation of
British military forces in late 1783 and concluding one hundred
years later with the completion of the initial term of the city's
first Catholic mayor. During that century, Hibernians first
coalesced and then rose in uneven progression from being a
variously dismissed, despised, and feared foreign group to
ultimately receiving de facto acceptance as constituent members of
the city's population. Dan Milner presents evidence that the
Catholic Irish of New York gradually integrated (came into common
and equal membership) into the city populace rather than
assimilated (adopted the culture of a larger host group).
Assimilation had always been an option for Catholics, even in
Ireland. In order to fit in, they needed only to adopt mainstream
Anglo-Protestant identity. But the same virile strain within the
Hibernian psyche that had overwhelmingly rejected the abandonment
of Gaelic Catholic being in Ireland continued to hold forth in
Manhattan and the community remained largely intact. A novel aspect
of Milner's treatment is his use of song texts in combination with
period news reports and existing scholarship to develop a fuller
picture of the Catholic Irish struggle. Products of a highly verbal
and passionately musical people, Irish folk and popular songs
provide special insight into the popularly held attitudes and
beliefs of the integration epoch.
This issue of Clinics in Laboratory Medicine, edited by Dr. Dan
Milner, will focus on Global Health and Pathology. Topics include,
but are not limited to: Clinical Laboratory Volunteerism,
Pathologists Overseas; Anatomic Pathology Volunteerism; Funding
Strategies in Research and Global Pathology; Diagnostics for Cancer
and Health Systems building through pathology laboratories;
Training the next pathologists in global health; Maximizing
internet resources for improving pathology/lab medicine in LMICs;
Pathology-based research in Africa; HIV and Cancer: Role of
Pathology in success; Lymphoma and Pathology in Africa: Current
approaches and future diagnostics; Laboratory Capacity as a tool
for building health systems; Building Cross Country Networks for
Laboratory Capacity and improvement; Lab accreditation; Practical
success in Telepathology experiences in Africa; Pathology and WHO
vision of the future of LMICs; Breast Cancer in LMICs: Why we need
pathology and clinical trial capability to solve this challenge;
Cytopathology in LMICs: why and how to integrate to capacitate
healthcare; and Biorepositories and Data Cores for Research in
Global Health.
