Pathology uses a vast array of words from different origins and although there is a trend to make the terms more aetiological than descriptive - these descriptive terms are commonplace and used extensively - it is these common terms which are now included here.The whole structure of the book has been updated and revised but the same tables of organs, word roots, prefixes and suffixes, organizations and… Read More

In good condition - has markings from use - due to differing weights in books, postage maybe adjusted at checkout.This is an extensive revision of the first edition of this book thanks to the many suggestions I have received re inclusions and changes to the book. Most of the pathological terms have been placed in the Common Terms section (CT) which has additional illustrations. This however will not replace the A to Z of Skin Failure just as the revised version of the A to Z of Bones, Joints, Ligaments & the Back, did not replace the A to Z of Bone & Joint Failure, but rather enhanced it.The three main sections HAIR, NAILS & SKIN of the main text (MT) have remained separate in this edition as om the last. but there is more cross referencing, throughout particularly between the CT section and the MT.Some Cosmetic procedures are included and summarized as they are in many circles regarded as the normal condition of these tissues, particularly the aging skin.

In good condition - has markings from use - due to differing weights for books the postage maybe adjusted at checkout.This is an illustrated notebook on the life of Australians in the Middle Eastern theatre of war. Almost all of the contents are the work of men on active service. Reports are included on most of the actions in which Australian forces have so far taken part.

Similarly among the photographs, there are some which have already been published and many which now emerge from military and other official sources for the first time. They have been selected primarily for their value as graphic records of fact.

Most of the adventures recorded in this book really occurred; one or two were experiences of my own, the rest those of boys who were schoolmates of mine.

A world-class pioneer in mind/body medicine, and an acclaimed exponent of the significance of the ancient Hindu teachings of Ayurveda, which parallel the insights of contemporary research on quantum physics in stating that our attitude to ourselves can change the way things are, Deepak Chopra here shows us the extent to which the reshaping of the aging process is within our control.In a book which… Read More
