Motor and Sensory Pathways of the Nervous System
The motor and sensory tracts of the nervous system is a complicated topic to learn for students studying neuroanatomy. Motor and Sensory Pathways of the Nervous System is an anatomical atlas that illustrates each tract in the form of a flow diagram with a corresponding illustration showing where the axons travel from the spinal cord to the cortex (sensory pathway) or from the cortex to the spinal cord (motor pathway). All twelve bilateral cranial nerve pathways (motor, sensory, and parasympathetic) are also shown in detail as a flow diagram with a corresponding illustration. This atlas is helpful in learning neuroanatomy for medical, nursing and allied health students such as speech therapy, physiotherapy and occupational therapy students, students of health and science disciplines, and anyone who has a keen interest in the anatomy of the human body. Amy Lewis is a Registered Nurse and has an 18-year history of teaching anatomical sciences to students of all health and science disciplines at tertiary education level. Amy has spent many years doing prosection of cadavers for teaching and learning, after becoming the winner of the prestigious Royal Australasian College of Surgeons Dissection Prize in 2004. This topic of neuroanatomy has always been difficult for anatomy students to learn, and Amy felt it was time to convey all pathways into one concise book for a quick reference.

Steno on Muscles
A main work on muscular action, the "Elements of Myology," by the Danish anatomist Niels Stensen (1638-1686) was written at a time when the teachings of Hippocrates, Erasistratus, Aristotle, & Galen were still the foundations upon which scholarly learning on the human body were built. In this work as in several other areas of research, Stensen described a structure vs. time relation as a dynamic process. From macroscopic observations of a number of muscles in several animal species, he described the contraction of compound muscles arranged in unipennate structures with an angle between muscle fibers & tendons. He found that the observed swelling of a muscle during contraction was not an argument for an expansion of its volume. Contents of this study: (1) Stensen's Myology in HIsotrical Perspective, by Troels Kardel, M.D.; & (2) Translations of Niels Stensen's "New Structure of the Muscles & Heart" (1663) & "Specimen of Elements of Myology" (1667) with Facsimile of First Editions" annotated by Harriet Hansen, M.A., & Aug. Ziggelaar, S.J., Ph.D. Reprint. Illus.
Berengario Da Carpi on Fracture of the Skull or Cranium
This is a print on demand publication. Berengario da Carpi obtained his doctorate in med. in Bologna in 1489. He was elected to the chair of surgery in 1502 & to that of med. in 1505. In 1508 during an outbreak of plague he was charged by the city gov't. with combatting its ravages as chief health officer. In 1517 Berengario was called to Ancona, where Lorenzo dei Medici had been wounded, resulting in an occipital fracture & consequent shock trauma. His treatment is described in "De Fractura," f. 25 b. The event represented a significant advance in Berengario's professional experience, recorded in the "De Fractura Calvae sive Cranei," which was inspired by the occurrence. He dedicated the work to this patient, Lorenzo, to whom Machiavelli had also dedicated "The Prince" in 1513. Illus.

Surgical Techniques and Procedures
Surgery is a complex medical field, which, apart from the purely technical aspects, also involves the preparation and selection of the patient, as well as postoperative care. As a result, the surgeon must adopt a well-rounded approach to the surgical patient. This book will be a collection of chapters offering the distilled knowledge of various worldwide experts in different types of surgery, where they share "pearls of wisdom" that can only be gained through experience.
Upper Gastrointestinal Surgery - Contemporary Techniques and Training
Upper gastrointestinal (UGI) surgery is a fascinating field of medicine and surgery due to the complexity of the physiology and anatomy of the organ systems involved in multiple disease processes. Medical and surgical consultants are often involved in the case of patients with UGI disorders in a collaborative and multidisciplinary environment that contributes to improved patient care. This book, entitled Upper Gastrointestinal Surgery - Contemporary Techniques and Training, illustrates some of the most common diseases and challenges that clinicians and specialists must diagnose and treat to help their patients after extensive training and with the collective experience that arises from a team approach. Such diseases and disorders that are presented in this book are discussed within well-developed chapters dedicated to metabolic and bariatric surgery, hepatobiliary and pancreatic surgery, gastric surgical oncology, and therapeutic endoscopy, to name a few, in addition to surgical simulation and education. Such chapters present state-of-the-art management algorithms and surgical techniques, including robotics, therapeutic endoscopy, and artificial intelligence as an adjunct to human judgment. Surgical education and simulation are of paramount importance for disseminating safe surgical principles in a controlled and safe environment. In such a system, repetition, precision, attention to detail and self-improvement are emphasized and promoted for the benefit of the patient.
