Once an animator at Disney Studios, Nicolas Keramidas now makes a living as a cartoonist in Grenoble. He's married to a wonderful woman, Chloé, has two energetic sons, and plays soccer every Sunday with his pals. He was also born with Tetralogy of Fallot, a rare combination of four heart defects that in 1973 made him one of the youngest children ever to undergo open-heart surgery. Forty-three years later, when his congenital condition stops him short during a soccer game, he'll have to face surgery again, a saga he details in this moving, humorous, and above all, very human memoir.

From the review in GP Magazine, November 2013: "This has been a helpful addition to the practice library because it is specifically targeted to general practice in the UK.... I would highly recommend this book to GP colleagues as well as GP trainees. It is well written, with broad coverage of its subject. The illustrations are excellent." Practical Procedures in General Practice is an essential guide for any GP looking to establish a minor surgery service, and covers: • setting up a minor surgery clinic • advice on local funding guidelines • patient selection and assessment • basic operative procedures • joint injections • long-term contraception • specialist procedures such as carpal tunnel decompression and non-scalpel vasectomy which may be undertaken by GPs with a special interest If you are one of the many GPs looking to reduce referrals, increase practice income and provide a better service to your patients by developing a minor surgery DES, then Practical Procedures in General Practice will help.
Star artists from around the globe each draw a chapter of Mickey's wildest adventure -- from Giorgio Cavazzano (Disney Masters) to Mike Peraza (Mickey's Christmas Carol) to Marco Rota, plus dozens more! While celebrating his birthday at a carnival, Mickey crosses the threshold of a fortune-teller's mystic portal and finds himself flung headlong into an amazing journey. He encounters one phantasmagorical dimension after another -- a fractured fairy tale kingdom, a cubist realm, and outer space -- with plenty of dragons, mummies, and giant mouse-eating plants along the way. (Not to mention alternate versions of Goofy, Peg Leg Pete, and the Phantom Blot!) Can Mickey get back? How deep does this rabbit hole -- er, mouse hole -- go?
