The development of new materials is recognized as one of the major
elements in the overall technological evolution that must go on in
order to sustain and even improve the quality of life for citizens
of all nations. There are many components to this development, but
one is to achieve a better understanding of the properties of
materials using the most sophisticated scientific tools that are
available. As condensed matter physicists and materials scientists
work toward this goal, they find that it is useful to divide their
efforts and focus on specific areas, because certain analytical and
theoretical techniques will be more useful for the study of one
class of materials than another. One such area is the study of
metals and metallic alloys, which are used in the manufacture of
products as diverse as automobiles and space stations. Progress in
this area has been very rapid in recent years, and the new
developments come from many different countries. For these reasons
the Advanced Research Workshop Programme in the NATO Scientific
Affairs Division has seen fit to sponsor several meetings to bring
together the researchers and students working in this field from
the NATO countries and elsewhere. There have been a series of
NATO-ASI's that have dealt with the results of research on the
electronic structure of materials and the properties of metals,
alloys, and interfaces. They are: "Electrons in finite and infinite
structures" P. Phariseau and L.

Prenatal and Postnatal Care The second edition of the comprehensive
and award-winning text on prenatal and postnatal care The updated
edition of Prenatal and Postnatal Care offers a comprehensive text
for the care of the woman during the childbearing year. The expert
author team presents information needed to master foundational
knowledge in anatomy, physiology, psychology, culture, the
structure of preconception, prenatal and postnatal care, as well as
the management of common health problems. This edition has been
revised throughout and contains six new chapters on the following
topics: prenatal ultrasound, triage of the pregnant woman,
assisting women to develop confidence for physiologic birth,
pregnancy after infertility, oral health, and issues around
diversity and inclusion in prenatal and postnatal care. Additional
highlights include new and updated content on pregnant women in the
workplace, prenatal genetic testing, trauma-informed care, and
transgender pregnancy care. The second edition also includes
commonly used complementary therapies and offers more detailed
information on shared decision-making and planning for birth.
Prenatal and Postnatal Care: Provides expanded faculty resources
with case studies and test questions for each chapter Offers a
comprehensive text that covers essential aspects of prenatal and
postnatal care of the childbearing woman Builds on the edition that
won the Book of the Year award from the American College of Nurse
Midwives (ACNM) in 2015. This revised, authoritative text is an
ideal resource for midwifery, nurse practitioner and physician
assistant students, and healthcare providers working with pregnant
and postpartum women.
