This 304 page full-color textbook is essentially two volumes in one. The first 92 pages present the basic principles of 12 lead ECG interpretation. The remainder of the book focuses on the evaluation of Acute Coronary Syndrome (ACS) patients. 13 ECG patterns associated with ACS are presented, including the most subtle ECG changes most often missed by clinicians and the ECG machine 's automated interpretation software. The curriculum provides an in-depth, balanced approach to patient assessment, combining advanced ECG interpretation skills with patient history, risk factor and cardiac marker evaluation. Correlation of ECG leads with the coronary arterial distributions which commonly supply each region of the heart are reinforced by use of 24 case studies of ST Segment Elevation Myocaridal Infarction (STEMI), Non ST Segment Elevation Myocardial Infarction (NSTEMI), Unstable Angina, and Brugada Syndrome. STEMI Case Studies emphasize the ECG identification of the infarct related artery, and complications to be expected based on failure of cardiac structures commonly supplied by the obstructed arterial distribution. Case studies begin with patients' initial assessment data obtained in the emergency department and continue into the cardiac catheterization lab where coronary artery angiography illustrates the location of arterial obstruction. Key learning objectives for each type of Myocardial Infarction (MI) are highlighted. 453 full color images, 135 review questions, and 114 ECGs reinforce the learning process. Target audience is all medical professionals whom are already competent in single-lead rhythm strip evaluation, and desire to become proficient in the 12 lead ECG evaluation of Acute Coronary Syndrome patients. This book was written and reviewed by veteran cardiac cath lab interventionalists.

Beyond Residency offers practical, no-nonsense advice about the business and economics of being a medical doctor. Used as a textbook in the Business of Medicine Course at East Carolina University's Brody School of Medicine, this edition is designed to work more broadly for other institutions teaching business of medicine courses and for new physicians starting out in practice. Recalling his days in medical school, Marc Lyles, senior director of health care affairs for the Association of American Medical Colleges said, ""Whenever we asked a business question we were always told, 'Don't worry about that. You need to learn the medical side before you worry about the business side.'"" He states that between 2003 and 2007, the majority of students were satisfied with their medical and clinical training. However, less than half felt that enough time was devoted to the practice of medicine, especially to medical economics. The Brody School of Medicine addresses that discrepancy, offering its Business of Medicine Course as a fourth-year elective and as a postgraduate class for students in the Department of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation. Topics addressed include time value of money, contracts, RVUs, disability and life insurance, and investment plans such as traditional IRAs and Roth IRAs. In 2015, the Business of Medicine Course received a positive score of 4.68/5 (94%) for its value to medical students, and Beyond Residency received a score of 3.89/4 (97%) for its effectiveness in teaching students the business of medicine. Beyond Residency helps students to understand important yet under-explored areas that will impact them as practicing physicians.
The demands on materials to perform under complex service conditions has necessitated rapid advances in the design and development of materials and associated technologies. Development of new concepts starting at the electronic structure of materials and their modeling require application of advanced computer tools and software. There has been significant progress, not only in the development of advanced materials, but also in understanding their constitution and behavior with the help of modeling. This book presents a comprehensive view of the latest developments and experimental work on both these fronts and attempts to give direction to future work. The information contained in this book deals with topics such as materials challenges in the nuclear power sector, materials science approaches in biology and medicine, Fe-and Co-based bulky glass alloys for magnetic applications, smart composites, multilayer semiconductor devices, atomic structure and interfaces, design of light alloys, superalloys, novel materials with optimized design at atomic scale, design tools for nano-and micro scale metallic materials, component design and industrial ecology, microstructural development of advanced ferritic steels, diamond/carbide nanocomposite gradient films, magnetic nanofluids, stability issues in nanostructured materials, the design of materials for enhanced tribological performance, solid oxide fuel cells, metal foams and high performance steels through nano-structures.
