ARTISTS-IN-LABS: Networking in the Margins

By Jill Scott
Sp..ger V..nna Archite..ure
2010 | ISBN: 3709103207
212 pages | PDF | 10,1 MB

Networking in the Margins is about sharing information in the margins where immersive learning can expand the exact sciences and demand a more robust level of dialogue from the humanities and the arts. At base of these margins, sits an attitude, which values mixed levels of fantasy, reality and logic and accepts unexpected results.

Therefore, this new edition will feature how the AIL artists from the disciplines of sculpture, installation, performance and sound and AIL partner scientists from the disciplines of physics, computer technologies, environmental ecology and cognitive analysis have complimented each others research from 2006 to 2009. While scientists have certainly learnt about art, artists have become more involved in ethical and social debates about scientific discovery in relation to society.

In this book the potentials of networking in these margins are reflected upon by 9 prominent authors, 12 artists and 12 leading scientific researchers from various Laboratories

Principles of Medical Statistics

Chapman and Hall/CRC | September 14, 2001
ISBN-10: 1584882166 | 712 pages
PDF | 7 MB

The get-it-over-with-quickly approach to statistics has been encouraged - and often necessitated - by the short time allotted to it in most curriculums. If included at all, statistics is presented briefly, as a task to be endured mainly because pertinent questions may appear in subsequent examinations for licensure or other certifications. However, in later professional activities, clinicians and biomedical researchers will constantly be confronted with reports containing statistical expressions and analyses.

Not just a set of cookbook recipes, Principles of Medical Statistics is designed to get you thinking about data and statistical procedures. It covers many new statistical methods and approaches like box plots, stem and leaf plots, concepts of stability, the bootstrap, and the jackknife methods of resampling. The book is arranged in a logical sequence that advances from simple to more elaborate results. The text describes all the conventional statistical procedures, and offers reasonably rigorous accounts of many of their mathematical justifications.

Indigenous Peoples in International Law

Oxford University Press, USA | October 12, 2000
ISBN-10: 0195140451 | 288 pages
PDF | 15.5 Mb

In Indigenous Peoples in International Law, James Anaya explores the development and contours of international law as it concerns the world's indigenous peoples, culturally distinctive groups that are descended from the original inhabitants of lands now dominated by others. Anaya demonstrates that, while historical trends in international law largely facilitated the colonization of indigenous peoples and their lands, modern international law's human rights program has been responsive to indigenous peoples' aspirations to survive as distinct communities in control of their own destinies.

Over the last several years, the international system--particularly as embodied in the United Nations and other international institutions--has exhibited a renewed and increasingly heightened focus on the concerns of indigenous peoples. Anaya discusses the resulting new generation of international treaty and customary norms, while linking the new and emergent norms with previously existing international human rights standards of general applicability. Anaya further identifies and analyzes institutions and procedures, at both the domestic and international levels, for implementing international norms concerning indigenous peoples.

Se trata de un recurso definitivo para el estudio de la asignatura de Anatomia, a todo color, con mas de 1000 excelentes ilustraciones anatomicas especificamente disenadas para esta obra y mas de 300 ilustraciones clinicas, radiografias, TC, ecografias, RM, etc., que son una herramienta muy util para el conocimiento de la anatomia, pues ayudan al estudiante a visualizar la anatomia in vivo. Se hace eco de todos los avances que se han producido en la manera en que los estudiantes aprenden mayoritariamente anatomia en las facultades de todo el mundo y en los programas docentes de medicina, con mayor integracion y orientacion hacia la clinica.

- Los autores, de una dilatada experiencia docente y clinica, se han decantado despues de sopesar los distintos posibles abordajes, por un enfoque regional que recogiera en cada capitulo cuatro secciones distintas: aspectos conceptuales basicos, que revisan cada region corporal y resumen las funciones de sus componentes, sus relaciones con otros organos del cuerpo y otras caracteristicas importantes; anatomia regional, que detalla las estructuras clave en las que esta fundamentada la anatomia e integra la informacion clinica relevante para potenciar los conocimientos del estudiante; anatomia de superficie, que correlaciona las caracteristicas externas visibles con la anatomia interna, y casos clinicos, que demuestran las aplicaciones del conocimiento anatomico en situaciones clinicas reales que permiten al estudiante comprobar sus propios conocimientos.
- Gray Anatomia para estudiantes recorre todo el cuerpo humano con un sentido logico, abordando los distintos aspectos complejos del organismo a medida que el lector va dominando los basicos. Cada capitulo puede ser utilizado como un modulo de aprendizaje independiente. La secuencia elegida ha sido region posterior del tronco, torax, abdomen, pelvis y perine, miembro inferior, miembro superior, cabeza y cuello. El material clinico se encuentra en tres niveles, los casos clinicos ya mencionados, que aparecen al final de capitulo; las correlaciones clinicas, plenamente integradas en el texto y que correlacionan los aspectos anatomicos expuestos de manera directa con la aplicacion directa de esta informacion, pero en cursiva, de modo que el estudiante puede obviarlas en su lectura si asi lo desea, y los resumenes clinicos, que ofrecen informacion clinica util y relevante que demuestra la manera en que el conocimiento anatomico facilita la resolucion de problemas clinicos.

Otra particularidad de esta excelente obra es que todo el material ha sido revisado por un comite de mas de 100 expertos mundiales que han aportado sus comentarios y sugerencias a los distintos temas, garantizando su absoluta correccion, asi como un enfoque global e internacional. En el caso de la edicion espanola, han colaborado en esta revision reputados profesores de Espana, Mexico y Argentina.

A Casebook of Medical Ethics

Oxford University Press
August 31, 1989 | ISBN-10: 0195039173
264 pages | PDF | 80.7 MB

Should a brain-dead woman be artificially maintained for the sake of her fetus? Does a physician have the right to administer a life-saving transfusion despite the patient's religious beliefs? Can a family request a hysterectomy for their retarded daughter? Physicians are facing moral dilemmas with increasing frequency. But how should these delicate questions be resolved and by whom? A Casebook of Medical Ethics offers a real-life view of the central issue involved in clinical medical ethics.

Since the analysis of cases plays a critical role in this study, the authors have assembled a broad collection of histories encountered in their work as medical ethics educators and consultants.

The cases are developed in substantial detail to reflect the rich medical and psychosocial complexity involved, and each is brought to a decision point at which a course of action must be chosen. Among the issues examined are conflicts between patients' wishes and respect for their well-being, tensions concerning duties to patients unable to care for themselves and obligations to family members, and clashes between patient care obligations and the interests of other persons, including physicians, third parties, and the general public.

The book also includes commentaries that combine general discussion of ethical principles with specific analysis of the cases examined in the text, as well as various options for resolving conflicts. Readers are invited to assess the comparative merits and liabilities of these approaches. An ideal text for undergraduate and medical school courses, A Casebook of Medical Ethics brings readers to the forefront of medicine, where they share in the determination of crucial ethical decisions.
