The only full bibliography on the Ford years, this volume offers a
complete compilation of material pertaining to the life and
political career of Gerald R. Ford. The documents included trace
Ford's growth from his early days as a child in Grand Rapids,
through his naval service in World War II, his 1948 election to
Congress and 1965 selection as Republican Minority Leader, to his
1973 nomination and selection as Richard Nixon's vice-president and
his 1974 accession to the presidency. The work contains over 350
references to manuscript material on the Ford years, as well as
monograph, journal article, and memoir sources, including the first
full listing of Ford's own writings available in print. Oral
histories, historiographical materials, iconography, and other
audiovisual materials are also included. The bibliography is a
particularly broad-based one, including short essays on the
audiovisual and iconographic material available and a wide range of
entries on available archival material. All the archival material
presently available at the Gerald R. Ford Library is included. Most
of the entries include a short annotation. The volume also provides
an extensive chronology of the Ford years.
The contents of this volume are based upon the proceedings of a
Sympo sium entitled "Infectious Diseases of the Central Nervous
System" held in Phoenix, Arizona, and sponsored by the Barrow
Neurological Institute and Foundation during its Ninth Annual
Symposium. The purpose of the Symposium was to bring together
knowledgeable experts in this field to review information that is
available and to enhance our knowledge of new developments in the
field of infectious diseases in the central nervous system. Because
the subject could not be covered in its entirety by this volume, we
have placed particular emphasis on recent developments and new
information. The volume includes a remarkably fresh and interesting
discussion of viral diseases as they affect the nervous system,
including conventional and unconventional virus agents, and in
addition, discussions of path ophysiology and epidemiology and
postinfectious diseases of the nervous system. A similar approach
is taken to the treatment of bacterial infection. Discussions of
pathophysiology are intertwined with discussions of diag nostic
techniques, prevention techniques and treatment of bacterial in
fections. Additional surgical problems are discussed regarding
prevention and management of peri operative infection and brain
abscess. Special consid eration was given to coccidioidomycosis
which is prevalent in the western states; also, there is a
discussion of parasitic infections. This volume will be of interest
to neurologists and neurosurgeons and any physician dealing with
infectious disease. RICHARD A. THOMPSON, M.D. JOHN R. GREEN, M.D.
This volume represents a collection of topics presented at the
Tenth Annual Symposium of the Barrow Neurological Institute. No
attempt is made to be comprehensive but rather an attempt is made
to give adequate attention to the major important topics in this
field. Neuro developmental biology, pathophysiology, and laboratory
evaluation are discussed. Subjects include hypoxic ischemia,
intraventricular hemorrhage, fetal neurosurgery, surgery of
hydrocephalus, problems of apnea, ultrasound and CT imaging
techniques, electrodiagnosis and ethical and economic issues. This
volume will be of interest to neurologists and neurosurgeons in
general, and especially to pediatric neurologists and
neurosurgeons, and perinatologists. Richard A. Thompson, M. D. John
