Reproductive medicine is a growing field with new technology
emerging faster than we can assess consumer's perceptions of -the
number of cancer survivors are growing and there is a great need to
attend to their quality of life-this book addresses the needs of
males and females, identifies effective communication strategies
and proactive measures for health care professionals and
researchers to use as well as identifying gaps in the literature
where more research is needed.
Applying statistical concepts to biological scenarios, this
established textbook continues to be the go-to tool for advanced
undergraduates and postgraduates studying biostatistics or
experimental design in biology-related areas. Chapters cover linear
models, common regression and ANOVA methods, mixed effects models,
model selection, and multivariate methods used by biologists,
requiring only introductory statistics and basic mathematics.
Demystifying statistical concepts with clear, jargon-free
explanations, this new edition takes a holistic approach to help
students understand the relationship between statistics and
experimental design. Each chapter contains further-reading
recommendations, and worked examples from today's biological
literature. All examples reflect modern settings, methodology and
equipment, representing a wide range of biological research areas.
These are supported by hands-on online resources including
real-world data sets, full R code to help repeat analyses for all
worked examples, and additional review questions and exercises for
each chapter.
This definitive volume will alter our understanding of the literature of World War I. New critical approaches have, over the last two decades, redefined the term "war literature" and its cultural legacy. Consisting, in equal measure, of essays by male and female scholars (from several different countries), and devoted to both familiar and lesser-known works, this book presents the many faces of Great War literary study at the millennium.

Essays in this volume seek to clarify the meaning of tragedy and
the tragic in its many German contexts, art forms, and disciplines,
from literature and philosophy to music, painting, and history. The
many catastrophes of German history have often been described as
tragic. Consequently, German literature, music, philosophy,
painting, and even architecture are rich in tragic connotations.
Yet exactly what "tragedy" and "thetragic" may mean requires
clarification. The poet creates a certain artful shape and
trajectory for raw experience by "putting it into words"; but does
putting such experience into words (or paintings or music or any
other form) betray suffering by turning it into mere art? Or is it
art that first turns mere suffering into tragic experience by
revealing and clarifying its deepest dimension? What are we talking
about, exactly, when we talk about tragic experience and tragic
art, especially in an age in which, according to Hannah Arendt,
evil has become banal? Does banality muffle or even annul the
tragic? Does tragedy take suffering and transform it into beauty,
as Schiller thought?Is it in the interest of truth for suffering to
be "beautiful"? Is it possible that poetry, music, and art are
important because they in fact create the meaning of suffering? Or
is suffering only suffering and not accessible to meaning, tragic
or otherwise? This book comprises essays that seek to clarify the
meaning of tragedy and the tragic in its many German contexts, art
forms, and disciplines, from literature and philosophy to music,
painting, and history. Contributors: Jeffrey A. Bernstein, Stephen

The Behavior and Ecology of Pacific Salmon and Trout combines
in-depth scientific information with outstanding photographs and
original artwork to fully describe the fish species critical to the
Pacific Rim. This completely revised and updated edition covers all
aspects of the life cycle of these remarkable fish in the Pacific:
homing migration from the open ocean through coastal waters and up
rivers to their breeding grounds; courtship and reproduction; the
lives of juvenile salmon and trout in rivers and lakes; migration
to the sea; the structure of fish populations; and the importance
of fish carcasses to the ecosystem. The book also includes
information on salmon and trout transplanted outside their ranges.
Fisheries expert Thomas P. Quinn writes with clarity and enthusiasm
to interest a wide range of readers, including biologists, anglers,
and naturalists. He provides the most current science available as
well as perspectives on the past, present, and future of Pacific
salmon and trout. In this edition: Over 100 beautiful color
photographs of salmon and trout Updated information on all aspects
of the salmon and trout life cycle Expanded coverage of trout

Monitoring Ecological Impacts provides the tools needed by
professional ecologists, scientists, engineers, planners and
managers to design assessment programs that can reliably monitor,
detect and allow management of human impacts on the natural
environment. The procedures described are well grounded in
inferential logic, and the statistical models needed to analyse
complex data are given. Step-by-step guidelines and flow diagrams
provide the reader with clear and useable protocols, which can be
applied in any region of the world and to a wide range of human
impacts. In addition, real examples are used to show how the theory
can be put into practice. Although the context of this book is
flowing water environments, especially rivers and streams, the
advice for designing assessment programs can be applied to any
ecosystem.

This second edition of the Atlas of Temporomandibular Joint Surgery
is a major revision of Dr. Quinn s classic work, taking into
account new procedures, equipment, and evidence-based findings from
the latest research in TMJ treatment. Assuming that readers are
familiar with non-surgical therapies to correct temporomandibular
pain and disorders, Drs. Quinn and Granquist focus on the surgical
remedies for disorders that are beyond conservative treatment. This
concise, how-to surgical atlas guides both the novice and
experienced surgeon through the intra-articular and extra-articular
procedures that have proven efficacious in the treatment of
advanced craniomandibular dysfunction. Chapters take readers
through decision making for TMJ surgery, diagnostic imaging
methods, surgical approaches, surgery for internal derangements,
trauma, osseous surgical procedures, total joint replacement, and
pathologies.
