The New Nationalism and the First World War is an edited volume
dedicated to a transnational study of the features of the
turn-of-the-century nationalism, its manifestations in social and
political arenas and the arts, and its influence on the development
of the global-scale conflict that was the First World War.
This practical book describes the latest collaborative clinical
work, research, and teaching between psychologists and
pediatricians in medical settings during the 1990s. The author and
his colleagues thoroughly detail the benefits and pitfalls of
interdisciplinary collaboration-offering a unique perspective on
pediatric psychology and identifying potential areas for future
research. This volume also features a descriptive model of
collaborate activities and discusses professional and practical
issues; empirical evaluations; development of pediatric psychology
programs in academic settings; and the impact of health care reform
on future research.
The last decade has seen a huge amount of change in the area of
sexually transmitted infection control and prevention, including
the development of high-profile vaccines for preventing the spread
of cervical cancer-causing human papillomavirus (HPV), novel
control methods for HIV and AIDS, and even the discussion of more
widespread use of controversial abstinence-only sex education
programs. Fully revised and updated to reflect the changes of the
past ten years, "Sexually Transmitted Diseases: Vaccines, Control
and Prevention" 2nd Edition brings researchers, clinical
investigators, clinicians, and students the most up-to-date
research, findings and thought on sexual infection prevention,
control and therapy available and serves as an essential reference
for anyone working in the field.
Provides comprehensive coverage of epidemiology, physiology and
immunology, featuringgeneral preventive strategies such as
behavioural modification, barrier methods and topical microbicides
Presents individual chapters on Herpes Simplex Virus,
Papillomavirus, Hepatitis B, Chlamydia, Gonorrhea, Syphilis, and
Bacterial VaginosisIncludes pathogenesis, microbiology and clinical
manifestations of each STD, along with current advances in vaccine
development"

The first edition of The Paris System for Reporting Urinary
Cytology introduced a completely new paradigm for detecting bladder
cancer by urine cytology. This system concentrated on defining
morphological characteristics of the most clinically significant
form of bladder cancer, High Grade Urothelial Carcinoma. This new
approach has been widely accepted throughout the world, and has
become part of the daily practice of cytology. Considering that the
first edition of The Paris System (TPS) introduced a new model of
urinary cytodiagnosis, verification and expansion of initial
material and data were anticipated. Based on evolving knowledge and
readership requests, the group of highly experienced authors have
created a new edition of TPS. This second edition includes areas
and issues not originally covered. A new chapter on urine cytology
of the upper tract, a rarely addressed topic, has been introduced.
Furthermore, the issue of cellular degeneration is discussed in the
criteria of all diagnostic categories. Examples of standardized
reports are included in each chapter. Most importantly, a separate
chapter presents data defining the risk of malignancy (ROM) for
each diagnostic category to inform clinical management. New high
quality images augment those of the first edition to better
illustrate diagnostic clues and potential pitfalls. In addition to
chapters on diagnostic criteria, current concepts of pathogenesis
of bladder cancer, specimen adequacy and preparation, and ancillary
tests are covered in separate chapters. A bonus to the volume is a
comprehensive history of urine as the earliest diagnostic sample of
human disease, richly illustrated with artworks from major museums.
Written by internationally recognized authorities, this
comprehensive and evidence-based guide to urine cytology is
supported by the newest data confirming the original concept and
significance of diagnostic criteria defining High Grade Urothelial
Carcinoma. TPS is an essential tool for anyone who is practicing
urinary cytology, including cytotechnologists,
pathologists-in-training and practicing pathologists. This book
should find a place in every cytology laboratory throughout the
world. The Concept has been endorsed by the American Society of
Cytopathology, and the International Academy of Cytology.
The Essentials in Cytopathology series publishes generously
illustrated and user-friendly guides with over 100 full color
images that illustrate principles and practice in Cytopathology for
pathologists and clinicians. Cytologic Detection of Urothelial
Lesions by Dorothy L. Rosenthal, MD and Stephen S. Raab, MD is the
second volume in the series. This volume will present a simple
approach to dealing with cellular samples from the urinary tract.
I am 55 years old as I write this, and have been Christian for a
number of years. However, although I have read the words of Jesus
Christ in the 25th chapter of Matthew on numerous occasions, it was
not until earlier this year that those words had an impact on me
that appears to have altered the course of my life. Forgive me if
it is presumptuous of me to say so, but my impression is that too
many Christians do not take those words seriously, when they really
should. My hope is that through this anthology, and by other means,
I might help to impress upon you the need to take Him seriously,
and the blessing that results in taking Him seriously, and to do
what He said we should do. These verses are the best I have to
offer. I hope they uplift, inspire, encourage, and amuse. I titled
the volume Poems and Songs for Christ because 100% of the royalties
and/or profits from the sale of this work will be donated to End
Starvation Foundation, Inc, who will use all of that to feed
starving widows and orphans, following the injunction of our Lord
to visit them in their distress (James 1:27, Ephesians 2:10,
Hebrews 13:16, Matthew 25:31-46). But I will go out on a limb and
say that many of the poems are even good.
SCUBA diving is thriving in the New York Area. The diving up here
is much more challenging than warm water destinations due to our
local conditions of cold temperatures, low visibility and currents.
Written for both the diver and the non-diver, this book draws the
reader into the exciting world of Northeast Technical SCUBA Diving.
The book opens with an 'Introduction to SCUBA Diving' that explains
the equipment, local conditions and dangers of diving to those new
to the sport. Consisting of over 70 true stories of local dives
this book has the reader descending with the author on numerous
local shipwrecks such as the USS San Diego and ocean liner Oregon,
both over 500 feet long and sunk in the Atlantic off of Long
Island. The book also contains a number of dive site maps. The
stories, chronicle the author's diving adventures and what it feels
like to dive locally both exploring the wrecks and from popular
shore diving sites . A site/equipment index allows the reader to
also use the book to experience specific wrecks and sites. Let's
say you have never dove the USS San Diego, a naval Armored Cruiser
that sank in 1918 off of Fire Island. You can easily find all the
stories about dives on her in order of increasing difficulty. Or
you are considering getting an underwater scooter. You can locate
all the stories where a scooter was an important part. Perhaps you
want to understand how a reel helps keep a diver from getting lost
inside a wreck or what its like to be entangled by a line of reel
inside a wreck. Interested in finding out more of the dangers of
technical decompression diving? It's all here in this book. This
book takes you diving..
This monograph indicates how such data can best be analyzed. It is important because it applies a conceptual scheme recently developed by the authors-prediction analysis-to ordinal data.
