The Jade Unicorn celebrates 25 years of underground circulation and acclaim. A horror story that shatters the limitations of the genre, The Jade Unicorn takes the reader on a multi-dimensional cyclone from innocence to evil, and from decadence to enlightenment and self-sacrifice. Armageddon looms. The survival of the entire universe depends upon the choices made by two very different people and the coterie of friends and enemies that accrue to them. Part crime mystery, part homiletic, part Black Mass, and part vision quest, The Jade Unicorn explores the very nature of Good and Evil, of how mankind can learn to embrace the satanic or learn to evolve toward Cosmic Consciousness. This isn't a book for the squeamish, because the truth about Evil must be told graphically and read without shame. Nor is it a book for genre fans looking for another vampire, ghost, or demon story. The Jade Unicorn will haunt you long after you've turned the final page.

This book provides extensive information on the duodenal switch and all of its derivatives. The number of procedures performed is progressively increasing, as cases of obesity are on the rise and patients’ body mass index (BMI) is getting higher. It discusses all the techniques involved in the duodenal switch procedure and its derivatives used in the primary and revision situations. Readers will learn what the procedure can offer not only in terms of weight loss, but also its potential with regard to metabolic diseases, since some data indicates that the duodenal switch may lead to rapid resolution of diabetes and other comorbidities. The work is divided into three parts, the first of which provides an overview of the duodenal switch, its history, mechanisms of action and reasons for performing it. Part II covers patient selection, risk assessment, complications and different techniques regarding weight loss surgery. In addition, there are chapters on nutrition and psychological aspects. Lastly, the chapters in Part III address patient selection and preoperative and postoperative care in metabolic and diabetes type 2 surgeries. The most important information on the duodenal switch is gathered in a single volume and includes its benefits for metabolic diseases. This book will give healthcare professionals new confidence with regard to this procedure and may serve as a reference guide not only for the bariatric community (surgeons, PA, ARNP, nutritionists) but also for teaching new residents and fellows.
