This reference discusses state-of-the-art methods for the management of children with conditions affecting the nervous system-providing over 80 chapters that outline direct, logical approaches to numerous pediatric neurologic disorders using clear tables, algorithms, and figures for quick reference to key material.
Movement Disorders in Childhood, Third Edition provides the most up-to-date information on the diseases and disorders that affect motor control, an important area of specialization within child neurology. In this new edition, each chapter has been fully revised to include all of the latest scientific and therapeutic advances. Updates include new insights in motor development, control, goal-directed and habitual behaviors, classifications of movements and their complex and integrated circuitry. The authors also discuss developments in pathophysiologic mechanisms, immunology and metabolic disorders. New chapters include coverage of genetics of movement disorders and movement disorders in psychiatric conditions. Appendices include an updated and revised drug index and genetic search strategy. An updated Companion website hosts selected educational videos to help diagnose movement disorders.
Singer and Avery present-in popular language supported by in-depth scientific evidence-the compelling concept that global temperatures have been rising mostly or entirely because of a natural cycle. Using historic data from two millennia of recorded history combined with the natural physical records found in ice cores, seabed sediment, cave stalagmites, and tree rings, Unstoppable Global Warming argues that the 1,500 year solar-driven cycle that has always controlled the earth's climate remains the driving force in the current warming trend. Trillions of dollars spent on reducing fossil fuel use would have no effect on today's rising temperatures. The public policy key, Singer and Avery propose, is adaptation, not fruitless attempts at prevention. Further, they offer convincing evidence that civilization's most successful eras have coincided with the cycle's warmest peaks. With the added benefit of modern technology, humanity can not only survive global climate change, but thrive.

Published in 1962, Doris Lessing's The Golden Notebook merits fresh theoretical, geopolitical, autobiographical, and aesthetic approaches. Prompted by the novel's golden anniversary, the twelve essays collected in this volume provide fresh analyses along with appreciative memoirs for 21st century readers of this well-known masterpiece.

Movement disorders are a relatively new area of specialization
within child neurology. For many years, movement abnormalities
affecting the pediatric population received little attention in
adult-oriented textbooks, and chapters were frequently written by
adult neurologists. Over the past several decades, child
neurologists have assumed a greater role in the care of children
with movement disorders and the investigation of their underlying
etiologies and mechanisms. This new edition will build upon the
success of the 1st Edition and add new materials with a more
disease oriented approach and add coverage of genetic causes,
metabolic and immunological origination of movement disorders in
childhood. * The only current tutorial/reference specifically focused on childhood movement disorders.. * 100% revised and updated * New coverage of genetics and movement disorders, immunology and movement disorders, and an introduction to the latest quantitative analysis.
VI Es ware unmoglieh, hier die vielen Personen und Firmen aufzuzah- len, die uns dadureh halfen, daB sie uns gestatteten, ihre Arbeiten zu zi- tieren, uns Auskiinfte gaben oder Abbildungen zur Verfiigung stellten. Ihre Namen finden sieh in dem Literaturverzeiehnis, das alphabetiseh geordnet und so mit dem Autorenverzeiehnis kombiniert ist. Es konnten nieht aIle Masehinen, Apparate oder Produkte besehrie- ben oder abgebildet werden, wir hoffen aber, eine gute Auswahl getrof- fen zu haben. Was an Auskiinften zur Verfiigung stand, hat oft die Auf- nahme in dieses Bueh bestimmt. South Croydon, im Marz 1960 Sonja S. Singer Anmerkung des Ubersetzers Dies Bueh ist eine Dbersetzung und keine Bearbeitung. Wie es bei einem derartigen Bueh nieht anders sein kann, ist die Literatur nur bis zu einem bestimmten Zeitpunkt berueksiehtigt. Bis dahin sind die Literaturhinweise aber auBerordentlieh reiehhaltig und vollstandig. Ieh meine, daB gerade darin eines der besonderen Ver- dienste des Buehes liegt. Das Literatur-und Namenverzeiehnis fur alle drei Bande befindet sieh im Band 1. In der deutschen Ausgabe sind nur die Einheiten des metrisehen Systems verwendet, Temperaturen sind stets in DegreesC angegeben.
Longitudinal Analysis of Labor Market Data presents a set of papers by leading scholars on methods for analysing the longitudinal data that is available on numerous topics of interest to social scientists. Because many sources of longitudinal data record labour market phenomena such as unemployment, labour supply, earnings mobility, job turnover and participation in training programmes, all of the papers collected in this volume focus on models of the labour market. The main methodological points, however, are more general and apply to such diverse areas as demography, life science analysis and training evaluation, to name only a few, potential avenues of application. The book contains important methodological contributions to the emerging field of longitudinal analysis and is of interest to a wide range of social scientists.
