Free Download Lawrie Reznek, "The Nature of Disease "
English | ISBN: 103225517X | 2022 | 240 pages | PDF | 4 MB
Originally published in 1987, this book is about the classification of bodily conditions into diseases. It provides a full account of the concept of disease, examining the issue of whether disease status is something we discover or invent and the issue of whether disease attributions involve implicit value judgements. It investigates whether bodily conditions fall into natural kinds and whether these debates can be settled by discovering whether there are any natural boundaries dividing conditions into diseases and non-diseases. It considers whether the notion of disease is an evaluative notion or whether judgements about disease status are purely descriptive. The issue of whether other cultures with different values are justified in making different disease judgements is also discussed.

English | ISBN: 0806144025 | 2013 | 376 pages | PDF | 11 MB

Fiction and poetry, autobiography and discursive writing from such writers as James Welch, Gerald Vizenor, and Leslie Marmon Silko constitute what critic Kenneth Lincoln in 1983 termed the Native American Renaissance. This collection of essays takes the measure of that efflorescence.

In the process, the authors describe and examine both Chinese and Western strategic management, their weaknesses and strengths. Starting with an analysis of the historical, cultural and legal antecedents of Chinese strategy, the authors identify potential for synergy and dominance between companies from Western, industrialized economies and Chinese companies. The book closes with recommendations on how the managements of non-Chinese companies, now pouring into China, can most effectively compete and interact with Chinese businesspersons and governments.

Free Download Barnaby Rogerson, Rose Baring, "Tales from the Life of Bruce Wannell: Adventurer, Linguist, Orientalist"
English | 2020 | pages: 353 | ISBN: 190020925X | PDF | 18,3 mb
Bruce Wannell was the greatest Orientalist traveler of his generation: a Paddy Leigh Fermor of the East, a Kim for our own time. He lived in Iran through the 1979 revolution, worked for a decade in the North West Frontier during the wars in Afghanistan and could transcribe the most complex Arabic calligraphy by sight. Although he lived in the lands of Islam he also knew all the artistic treasures of Christendom. His curious combination of talents - scholar, linguist, musician, translator and teacher - were duplicated by an international network of friendships with poets, spies, aid-workers, diplomats, artists and writers.

Free Download Synopsis of Pathophysiology in Nuclear Medicine
English | 2023 | ISBN: 3031206452 | 400 Pages | PDF EPUB (True) | 139 MB
This book, now in its second edition, will serve as a quick reference that will help the reader to understand different diagnostic scintigraphic patterns and to select appropriate treatment modalities based on functional imaging. The book concisely describes relevant anatomic and physiologic considerations for each organ system and the pathophysiologic features of different relevant diseases and relates them to the scintigraphy of each system. It thereby provides an informative synopsis of the pathophysiologic basis of nuclear medicine and molecular imaging. The volume is divided into 13 chapters that feature basic pathophysiology, cell biology and biologic effects of ionizing radiation, radiopharmaceutical uptake and relevant anatomic and physiologic considerations for each organ system and the pathophysiologic features of different relevant diseases. The objective of this volume is to provide a brief, easy to-use but nonetheless comprehensive companion guide to "The Pathophysiology Basis of Nuclear Medicine" that will prove useful to undergraduates and postgraduates as well as to practitioners in clinical and research fields.
