Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not
used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad
quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are
images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to
keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the
original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain
imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made
available for future generations to enjoy.
Started as an online learningplatform, Kenhub.com has helped users
worldwide to deepen their understanding of the organization of the
human body (and pass their exams too!). Its content is grounded on
academic literature and research, validated by experts, and trusted
by more than 40 million readers worldwide every year. For this
atlas specifically, we are proud to work together with Dr. Mike
Pascoe. Mike is an Associate Professor of Anatomy at the University
of Colorado Anschutz Medical Campus. Dr. Pascoe studied the
neurophysiology of movement at the University of Colorado Boulder
and defended his doctoral dissertation in 2010. He then joined the
faculty at Anschutz in 2011 where he develops and delivers gross
anatomy curricula to physical therapy, physician assistant, and
medical doctor students. His primary research interest is the
investigation of constructivist approaches in technology-enabled
learning environments (e.g., wiki usage, interactive modules,
Snapchat, etc.) to improve learning outcomes and student
satisfaction. Of secondary interest is the determination of
“need-to-know†anatomy content for physical therapy students.
Dr. Pascoe’s service commitments include mentoring students,
organizing anatomy laboratory refresher courses for practicing
clinicians, community out- reach, and service as a peer-reviewer
for many anatomy education journals. This atlas hasn’t been
possible without the help of the Kenhub team. It consists of
diverse, talented individuals which create Kenhub’s unique,
interdisciplinary perspective on anatomy education. We are a fully
remote company meaning that our team is spread out all around the
world.
A volume in Research in Curriculum and Instruction Series Editor:
O. L. Davis, Jr. The University of Texas at Austin In many
elementary classrooms, social studies has taken a back seat to
English Language Arts and Mathematics in the wake of No Child Left
Behind and Race to the Top This volume is not another hand-wringing
lament. On the contrary, the elementary educators who have
contributed to this volume have a positive set of stories to tell
about how social studies can play a central role in the elementary
classroom, how teachers can integrate social studies knowledge and
skills throughout the school day, and how this learning can carry
over into children's homes and communities. The seven case studies
in this book, one at each elementary grade level, highlight
exemplary teachers in whose classrooms social studies is alive and
well in this age of accountability. At the end of each case study,
each teacher provides advice for elementary teachers of social
studies. Our hope is that elementary teachers and prospective
teachers, elementary principals, social studies supervisors, staff
developers, and professors of elementary social studies methods who
study the stories that we tell can be empowered to return social
studies to its rightful place in the curriculum.

This book is about machines: those that have been actualized,
fantastical imaginal machines, to those deployed as metaphorical
devices to describe complex social processes. Machines argues that
they transcend time and space to emerge through a variety of spaces
and places, times and histories and representations. They are such
an integral fabric of daily reality that their disappearance would
have immediate and dire consequences for the survival of humanity.
They are part and parcel to our contemporary social order. From
labor to social theory, art or consciousness, literature or
television, to the asylums of the 19th century, machines are a
central figure; an outgrowth of affective desire that seeks to
transcend organic limitations of bodies that whither, age and die.
Machines takes the reader on an intellectual, artistic, and
theoretical journey, weaving an interdisciplinary tale of their
emergence across social, cultural and artistic boundaries. With the
deep engagement of various texts, Machines offers the reader
moments of escape, alternative ways to envision technology for a
future yet to materialize. Machines rejects the notion that
technological innovations are indeed neutral, propelling us to
think differently about those "things" created under specific
economic or historical paradigms. Rethinking machines provides a
rupture to our current technocratic impetus, shining a critical
light on possible alternatives to our current reality. Let us sit
back and take a journey through Machines, holding mechanical parts
as guides to possible alternative futures.
