A Dictionary of the History of Medicine

By: Anton Sebastian

This is a unique, extensively illustrated dictionary of terms, people, events, and dates spanning the entire history of medicine. It is a monumental work of scholarship totaling some 700 double-column pages with a large number of rare and exceptional illustrations from many original sources painstakingly compiled over years of far-searching inquiry involving more than 5,000 books and hundreds of journals. It is a major resource of hard-to-find information about notable medical figures, instruments, conditions, procedures, and dates and a storehouse of captivating anecdotes and background material. The book contains a wealth of material for concise historical introductions to a broad range of subjects and is the sine qua non authority on both well and little known facts of medical history. With this single volume-an unprecedented tour de force representing more than 7,000 hours of exhaustive research-clinicians and researchers from all fields of medicine can quickly and easily find authoritative, detailed definitions and descriptions, with dates, of medical terms and of the people and events contributing to the development of medicine from earliest times to the present day. The entries range widely from such as abacterial pyuria to zygote, including Latin and Greek origins of terms, compact biographies with dates, eponymic information of all kinds, and rarely seen drawings and photographs of antique medical instruments and little-known conditions.

Hydraulic Engineering of Dams

By: Willi H. Hager,Anton J. Schleiss,Robert M. Boes,Michael Pfister

Hydraulic engineering of dams and their appurtenant structures counts among the essential tasks to successfully design safe water-retaining reservoirs for hydroelectric power generation, flood retention, and irrigation and water supply demands. In view of climate change, especially dams and reservoirs, among other water infrastructure, will and have to play an even more important role than in the past as part of necessary mitigation and adaptation measures to satisfy vital needs in water supply, renewable energy and food worldwide as expressed in the Sustainable Development Goals of the United Nations. This book deals with the major hydraulic aspects of dam engineering considering recent developments in research and construction, namely overflow, conveyance and dissipations structures of spillways, river diversion facilities during construction, bottom and low-level outlets as well as intake structures. Furthermore, the book covers reservoir sedimentation, impulse waves and dambreak waves, which are relevant topics in view of sustainable and safe operation of reservoirs. The book is richly illustrated with photographs, highlighting the various appurtenant structures of dams addressed in the book chapters, as well as figures and diagrams showing important relations among the governing parameters of a certain phenomenon. An extensive literature review along with an updated bibliography complete this book.

Diagnostic Imaging of the Head and Neck

MRI with CT & PET Correlations

By: Anton N. Hasso

A single-authored, clinically oriented text on imaging of the head-and-neck, frequently a difficult area for radiology residents and general radiologists to master. Readers will find key diseases highlighted and a guide to differential diagnosis of various conditions. Though the primary image focus is on MRI, correlations with CT and PET images and strong coverage of anatomic variants--to distinguish those from the presence of disease--are major strengths of the book. Other features include excellent image quality, diagrams and tables. While this text does not replace the need for a comprehensive text, it should be an essential resource at the reading station and on rotation.

Gunther Plüschow

Airman, Escaper & Explorer

By: Anton Rippon

Gunther Plschow of the German Imperial Navy holds a unique place in history—during the First World War he was the only German prisoner of war ever to escape from the British mainland and make it all the way back to the Fatherland. Yet, although his daring break for freedom in 1915 is astonishing in its own right, Plschow was much more than simply an escaped POW. He was also a fearless aviator who flew against the British and Japanese in the Far East, and he was an explorer. After the war, he set sail for the southernmost tip of South America and became the first man to fly over Tierra del Fuego. He continued to explore what was then a largely unknown region of the world until his tragic death in 1931, when his parachute failed to open following a midair accident in Patagonia. In 'Gunther Plschow: Airman, Escaper, Explorer,' Anton Rippon tells this extraordinary tale in vivid detail. It is a tale that would do justice to the best adventure fiction—except that every word of it is true.

Responsible Care

A New Strategy for Pollution Prevention and Waste Reduction Through Environment Management

By: Nicholas Cheremisinoff,Paul Rosenfield,Anton Davletshin

Environmental regulations provide protection to the public, workers and the environment. To protect themselves from long-term liabilities, however, companies have to do more than just comply with the basic responsibilities. This handbook is designed to introduce terminology, methodology, tools, procedures and practical guidance for incorporating efficient pollution prevention strategies into the overall business plan. It is a company's responsibility to protect and control its management of waste and pollution, and a company that fails to do so will ultimately inflict a negative impact on its bottom line, especially in financial performance. Responsible Care delivers critical guidelines and rules of thumb required for industrial managers to improve their companies' profitability through waste reduction, cleaner production technologies and sound management practices.

Die Kaapse Helpmekaar

Die Kaapse Helpmekaar

Bemiddelaar in Afrikaner opheffing, selfrespek en respektabiliteit

By: Anton Ehlers

Die boek beoog om die verhaal van die Kaapse Helpmekaar as katalisator in die ekonomiese opheffing van Afrikaners in die vaarwater van die Rebellie van 1914-15 te vertel. In die proses was die Kaapse Helpmekaar, met sy fokus op opvoeding en onderwys, 'n bemiddelaar in Afrikaner-opheffing, selfrespek en aansien. Dit was dus 'n fasiliteerder van Afrikaner sosiale mobiliteit. As 'n kredietverskaffer vir tersiere opleiding van Afrikaanse studente vir meer as 'n honderd jaar, verteenwoordig die verhaal in 'n sekere sin die verhaal van Afrikaners - van hul armblanke-status in die vroeg 20ste eeu tot vooruitstrewende burgers van die kapitalistiese verbruikerskultuur van die 21ste eeu. Die verhaal van die Kaapse Helpmekaar resoneer in die sin ook met die huidige debatte rondom die finansiering van tersiere onderrig. Dit verskaf 'n Afrikaner-antwoord op 'n 20ste eeuse #feesmustfall-uitdaging wat, ten spyte van die verskil in konteks, 'n templaat en 'n benadering voorhou waarby 'n 21ste eeuse Suid-Afrika steeds baat kan vind.
