In Evidence-Based Procedural Dermatology, Dr. Alam has compiled the subspecialty’s latest research findings in a reference for researchers and dermatologists. It covers the spectrum of procedural dermatology, including skin cancer surgery, laser techniques, fillers and neurotoxins, minimally invasive cosmetic surgery, and emerging procedures. Leading experts present and evaluate evidence in each subfield, providing a solid manual for the present, and a guide for research in the future.
Features:
· A numerical system to appraise research findings used throughout the book
· Question and answer section to reinforce knowledge at the end of most chapters
· Serves as a tutorial for those interested in performing clinical research. 
· Holds practical value for dermatologists who are treating or counseling patients.

This handbook is aimed at first-line health care providers involved in the perioperative care of adult and pediatric neurosurgical patients. It is unique in its systematic focus on how to deal with common and important clinical challenges encountered in day-to-day practice in the OR, the PACU, and the ICU and is designed as a problem-solving tool for all members of the perioperative medicine team: trainees and faculty in anesthesiology, neurosurgery, and critical care; nurses; nurse anesthetists; and physician’s assistants.
• Encompasses clinical continuum from neurosurgical pre-op to critical care – plus anesthesia in neuroradiology
• Adult and pediatric care
• Structured algorithmic approach supports clinical decision-making
• Succinct presentation of clinically relevant basic science
• End-of-chapter summaries, with suggestions for further reading
• Collaborative approach and multidisciplinary nature of perioperative medicine emphasized
• Extensive summary tables 
• Portable and formatted for quick retrieval of information
• Ideal for use in the OR, the PACU, and the ICU

Shell structures and their components are applied in many engineering fields. Designers are attaching ever increasing importance to nonlinear responses such as large deformations, instabilities and nonlinear material properties in their design analysis. This volume presents a careful selection of papers from the ICES '88 Conference covering various aspects of nonlinear shell responses.

"Mechanics is one ofthe branches ofphysics in which the number ofprinciples is at once very few and very rich in useful consequences. On the other hand, there are few sciences which have required so much thought-the conquest of a few axioms has taken more than 2000 years. "-Rene Dugas, A History 0/ Mechanics Introductory courses in engineering mechanics (statics and dynamics) are generally found very early in engineering curricula. As such, they should provide the student with a thorough background in the basic fundamentals that form the foundation for subsequent work in engi neering analysis and design. Consequently, our primary goal in writing Statics for Engineers and Dynamics for Engineers has been to develop the fundamental principles of engineering mechanics in a manner that the student can readily comprehend. With this comprehension, the student thus acquires the tools that would enable him/her to think through the solution ofmany types ofengineering problems using logic and sound judgment based upon fundamental principles. Approach We have made every effort to present the material in a concise but clear manner. Each subject is presented in one or more sections fol lowed by one or more examples, the solutions for which are presented in a detailed fashion with frequent reference to the basic underlying principles. A set of problems is provided for use in homework assign ments.

"Physical Geodesy" by Heiskanen and Moritz, published in 1967, has for a long time been considered as the standard introduction to its field. The enormous progress since then, however, required a complete reworking. While basic material could be retained other parts required a complete update. This concerns, above all, the adaptation to the fact that the geometry can now be precisely determined by methods such as GPS, and that new satellite methods, combined with terrestrial methods, also make a detailed determination of the earth's gravitational field a possibility and a necessity. Highlights include: emphasis on global integration of geometry and gravity, a simplified approach to Molodensky's theory without integral equations, and a general combination of all geodetic data by least-squares collocation.

This book is both an easy-to-read textbook for invariant theory and a challenging research monograph that introduces a new approach to the algorithmic side of invariant theory. Students will find the book an easy introduction to this "classical and new" area of mathematics. Researchers in mathematics, symbolic computation, and computer science will get access to research ideas, hints for applications, outlines and details of algorithms, examples and problems.

The SISDEP 93 conference proceedings present outstanding research and development results in the area of numerical process and device simulation. The miniaturization of today’s semiconductor devices, the usage of new materials and advanced process steps in the development of new semiconductor technologies suggests the design of new computer programs. This trend towards more complex structures and increasingly sophisticated processes demands advanced simulators, such as fully three-dimensional tools for almost arbitrarily complicated geometries. With the increasing need for better models and improved understanding of physical effects, these proceedings support the simulation community and the process- and device engineers who need reliable numerical simulation tools for characterization, prediction, and development. This book covers the following topics: process simulation and equipment modeling, device modeling and simulation of complex structures, device simulation and parameter extraction for circuit models, integration of process, device and circuit simulation, practical applications of simulation, algorithms and software.

The book describes the development of Digital Radiology and Networking (commonly named "PACS”) from the late eighties up to now and outlines future perspectives. It is intended for radiologists and all other physicians, as well as technicians, scientists, IT-experts, health care providers and health maintenance organisations. It gives the readers an easy, nonetheless comprehensive overview and also "how-to-do” guidance for their own activities when implementing a digital radiology system. The book is a synthesis of the editor’s own experience of ten years in planning and working with a fully digital, large scale radiology department and the contributions of internationally well known experts in the field of digital radiology. The book describes the present state of the art in digital radiology. It does not merely report single experiences, but the readers will benefit from the systematic recommendations given. The use of IT for the benefit of patients is documented as well as the medical and ethical implications. Special features • Planning a digital radiology department • Hard- and software components, including teleradiology • Functional aspects of monitor reporting • Virtual reality - 3 D • Practical digital radiography guide • Quality assurance • Synergy effects • Navigation • Economical outcome • Virtual patient
