Perinatal Epidemiology synthesizes perinatal knowledge through
the lens of public health practice. This comprehensive text uses a
consistent, logical format to offer readers: (1) A spectrum of
topics affecting maternal and infant health: reproductive health
concerns, maternal and infant morbidity and mortality, and
gestation and fetal growth. (2) Information on timely issues,
including infertility, gestational diabetes, preterm delivery,
postpartum depression, and SIDS. (3) Detailed discussions of
current epidemiological trends, measures and measurement issues,
data sources, and risk and protective factors for each condition
covered. (4) In-depth consideration of public health interventions
and their availability, strengths and limitations. (5) Emerging
areas of interest and directions for research. (6) Text boxes,
definitions of key terms, discussion questions, appendices, and
other helpful features.
Perinatal Epidemiology is a valuable, ready resource for public
health professionals in maternal and child care, reproduction and
fertility. Its accessibility and easy-use format make it an equally
strong textbook for courses in these fields as well as for advanced
medical and nursing students in OB/GYN and pediatrics.

All 23 episodes from Season 2 of the series about Superman's early
life. In 'Vortex', Clark (Tom Welling) rescues Lana (Kristin Kreuk)
from the eye of a tornado, and then discovers that the storm has
powered up his spaceship and deposited it in an exposed position in
a cornfield. In 'Heat', Clark goes into hiding after discovering
his new power of heat vision, which can have some rather startling
effects. 'Duplicity' sees Pete (Sam Jones) happening upon Clark's
spaceship in the cornfield, which forces Clark to reveal his secret
to him. In 'Red', Clark is given his high school ring which is
supposedly set with ruby, but is actually red meteor rock. The rock
has an instant and dramatic effect on him, changing him into a
wayward rebel who overspends on the family credit card and picks
fights. In 'Nocturne', Lana finds a love poem left for her at her
parents' grave by Byron Moore (Sean Faris), an elusive boy with a
dark and dangerous secret. 'Lineage' sees a mysterious woman,
Rachel Dunlevy (Blair Brown) turning up in Smallville, claiming to
be Clark's biological mother. This prompts the Kents to finally
reveal to Clark the truth about what happened when they discovered
him as a toddler in the cornfield. In 'Ryan', Clark tests his
powers to the limit to save Ryan (Ryan James), a telepathic boy who
is being used as a test subject at the Summerholt Research Facility
by the evil Dr Garner (Martin Cummins). In 'Dichotic', a gifted
student, Ian (Jonathan Taylor Thomas) has cloned himself and is
dating both Lana and Chloe (Allison Mack) at the same time. Clark
tries to warn the girls, but they attribute his interference to
jealousy. In 'Skinwalkers', Clark falls into a cave filled with
Native American inscriptions that hold the key to his true
identity. 'Visage' sees the return of Whitney Fordman (Eric
Johnson), which disrupts the relationship betwen Clark and Lana -
until his odd behaviour prompts Clark to make a shocking discovery
about his true identity. In 'Suspect', Jonathan finds himself
framed for murder after being found in possession of a murder
weapon. But Clark and Pete mount their own investigation and
discover a tangle of motives and possible suspects. 'Insurgence'
sees Lex (Michael Rosenbaum) discovering that Lionel has secretly
installed an electronic surveillance system in his mansion. In
retaliation, Lex hires crooks to install cameras in Lionel's
Metropolis office... In 'Rush', a parasitic worm infects Pete and
Chloe, turning them into wild adrenaline junkies. In 'Prodigal',
Lex tracks down his long-lost brother Lucas (Paul Wasilewski), and
brings him home to Smallville in the hope that they can buy Lionel
out and unite against him. 'Fever' sees Martha (Annette O'Toole)
fall into a coma after breathing in meteor dust. It is then
revealed that she is pregnant with Clark's brother or sister.
'Rosetta' features a guest appearance from the original Superman
movie actor, Christopher Reeve, who plays Dr Virgil Swann, a
brilliant scientist who helps Clark to receive messages from his
home planet using the Native American symbols that Clark discovered
when he fell into the cave. In 'Visitor', a new student, Cyrus
Krupp (Jeremy Lelliot) reveals to Clark that he is an alien.
'Precipice' sees Clark jumping to Lana's defence when she is almost
assaulted by a college student. He injures the student, causing him
to question the virtue of his powers, and soon finds himself facing
a lawsuit that could cost the Kents their farm. In 'Witness', Clark
tries to intervene after inadvertently witnessing the theft of a
Luthercorp truck, but is dismayed to discover that the thieves are
as strong as he is. In 'Accelerate', Lana asks for Clark's advice
after being visited by the ghost of her childhood friend, Emily
(Jodelle Micah Ferlar). But Clark realises that the little girl is
in fact a kryptonite-enhanced clone who is out to get revenge on
Lana, and wants her to drown just as she, Emily, did several years
before. In 'Calling', Dr Frederick Walden (Rob LaBelle) wakes from
his coma to find himself in possession of incredible powers, and
sets off on a dangerous mission to kill Clark. In 'Exodus', Clark
makes an amazing discovery about his origins when the spaceship
announces that it is programmed with memories of his Kryptonian
father, Jor-El (Terence Stamp). It asks him to come at sunset to
return to his family and friends and fulfil his destiny. But can
Clark leave his life in Smallville behind? 'Redux' sees Clark
coming to the rescue when a mutant, Chrissy (Maggie Lawson), starts
killing young men by sucking their youth out of them to keep
herself young, leaving them aged and lifeless.

Some of today's most influential young evangelicals outline the
relevance and theological foundations of Christian orthodoxy and
evangelicalism.
Recent cultural interest in evangelicalism has led to
considerable confusion about what the term actually means. Many
young Christians are tempted to discard the label altogether. But
evangelicalism is not merely a political movement in decline or a
sociological phenomenon on the rise, as it has sometimes been
portrayed. It is, in fact, a helpful theological profile that
manifests itself in beliefs, ethics, and church life.
DeYoung and other key twenty- and thirty-something evangelical
Christian leaders present Don't Call It a Comeback: The Same
Evangelical Faith for a New Day to assert the stability, relevance,
and necessity of Christian orthodoxy today. This book introduces
young, new, and under-discipled Christians to the most essential
and basic issues of faith in general and of evangelicalism in
particular.
Kevin DeYoung and contributors like Russell Moore, Tullian
Tchividjian, Darrin Patrick, Justin Taylor, Thabiti Anyabwile, and
Tim Challies examine what evangelical Christianity is and does
within the broad categories of history, theology, and practice.
They demonstrate that evangelicalism is still biblically and
historically rooted and remains the same framework for faith that
we need today.
This book brings together ten essays on John Donne and George
Herbert composed by an international group of scholars. The volume
represents the first collection of its kind to draw close
connections between these two distinguished early modern thinkers
and poets who are justly coupled because of their personal and
artistic association. The contributors' distinctive new approaches
and insights illuminate a variety of topics and fields while
suggesting new directions that future study of Donne and Herbert
might take. Some chapters explore concrete instances of
collaboration or communication between Donne and Herbert, and
others find fresh ways to contextualize the Donnean and Herbertian
lyric, carefully setting the poetry alongside discourses of
apophatic theology or early modern political theory, while still
others link Herbert's verse to Donne's devotional prose. Several
chapters establish specific theological and aesthetic grounds for
comparison, considering Donne and Herbert's respective positions on
religious assurance, comic sensibility, and virtuosity with poetic
endings.Â
