Does the lethal use of drones pose any new or difficult moral problems? Or is the controversy over these weapons merely a distraction from deeper questions regarding the justice of war and the United States' bellicose foreign policy? Opposing Perspectives on the Drone Debate pulls no punches in answering these questions as five scholars square off in a lively debate over the ethics of drones and their contentious use in a point-counterpoint debate. The contributing authors are some of the foremost thinkers in international affairs today, spanning the disciplines of philosophy, sociology, political science, and law. Topics debated range from the US's contested policy of so-called "targeted killing" in Pakistan's tribal regions to fears over the damaging effects such weaponry has on our democratic institutions to the more abstract moral questions raised by killing via remote control such as the duty to capture over kill.

In kaum einem Bereich der Medizin sind experimentelle und klinische Forschung so eng miteinander verknupft wie in der Chirurgie. Ange- fangen von Untersuchungen zu verschiedenen Naht- und Anastomo- senmethoden bis zu weitreichenden Verfahren der Herz-Lungen- Maschinenanwendung, der Organkonservierung und schliesslich der Organtransplantation sind die engen Verflechtungen von Experi- ment und klinischer Anwendung offensichtlich. Immer wenn experi- mentelle Grundlagen in die Klinik ubertragen werden, mussen exakte UEberprufungen der erwarteten Ergebnisse mit ihren Auswir- kungen auf den Kranken in ihr Recht treten. Wie weit hier retro- spektive Untersuchungen ausreichen oder prospektiven Studien grundsatzlich der Vorrang gebuhrt, ist immer wieder Gegenstand der Diskussion. In einem ersten Teil werden diese und ahnliche Grundsatzfragen chirurgischer Forschung von verschiedenen Standpunkten aus einge- hend beleuchtet, gefolgt von speziellen Darstellungen exemplari- schen Charakters aus fast allen Bereichen der Chirurgie. Dabei konnte Vollstandigkeit nicht angestrebt werden. Die Vielfalt der Aussagen lasst dennoch klare Konturen erkennen und gibt Richtun- gen fur kunftige Forschungen an. Es liegt in der Natur der Sache, dass die Verflechtungen mit vielen Nachbardisziplinen deutlich werden. Georg Heberers besonderes Interesse galt stets der Grundlagen- forschung in der Chirurgie sowie der Pathophysiologie des opera- tiven Eingriffs und seiner Folgen. Es lag deshalb nahe, ihm zu sei- nem 65. Geburtstag ein Symposium zum Thema "Stand und Gegen- stand chirurgischer Forschung" zu widmen. Die dabei gehaltenen Vortrage bilden den Kern des nun vorliegenden Buches gleichen Titels. Mitaufgenommen wurden zahlreiche Einzelbeitrage seiner Schuler und Freunde aus speziellen Gebieten, damit die Breite chir- urgischer Forschung an einzelnen Beispielen sichtbar wird.

Imaging of the temporal bone has recently been advanced with multidetector CT and high-field MR imaging to the point where radiologists and clinicians must familiarize themselves with anatomy that was previously not resolvable on older generation scanners. Most anatomic reference texts rely on photomicrographs of gross temporal bone dissections and low-power microtomed histological sections to identify clinically relevant anatomy. By contrast, this unique temporal bone atlas uses state of the art imaging technology to display middle and inner ear anatomy in multiplanar two- and three-dimensional formats. In addition to in vivo imaging with standard multidetector CT and 3-T MR, the authors have employed CT and MR microscopy techniques to image temporal bone specimens ex vivo, providing anatomic detail not yet attainable in a clinical imaging practice. Also included is a CD that allows the user to scroll through the CT and MR microscopy datasets in three orthogonal planes of section.
