Bent at the Spine by Nicole Markotić Pdf
Poetry. BENT AT THE SPINE offers a "pronoun"-ced frolic where the "you" is a disconnected third party--the reader is left in the position of an eavesdropper, or a listener, or a karmasurplus author. Its relentless interrogation resonates at an invigorating pace: cultural difference, different bodies, diffident accents, deafening rhymes. Sometimes rapturous, often vulvy, the poems audaciously teach "you" how to read them, allowing the last-minute-cram-session to be a delving, a plunging, a repeating discovery. "Nicole Markotic has created a work of extravagant speech in BENT AT THE SPINE. As her title implies, the book is broken, the back contorted, yet the body o f language is recombined in new and surprising forms. In the tradition of Gertrude Stein's TENDER BUTTONS or Harryette Mullen's Muse & Drudge Markotic's book offers the pleasures of close listening and uncanny seeing. Or as she might say, 'a nod's as wonky as a tight-lipped pucker.'"--Michael Davidson

Spinal Deformity by Praveen V. Mummaneni, MD,Lawrence Lenke, MD,Regis Haid, M.D. Pdf
The challenge of treating complex spinal deformity often demands innovative solutions and greater skill than the initial surgical intervention; strategic planning is the critical element in successful surgical execution and outcome. Spinal Deformity: A Guide to Surgical Planning and Management, edited and written by the leading experts, is a landmark publication that provides critical information needed to safely plan, stage, and execute operations for the full range of complex spinal deformities. A Virtual Gold Mine of Information This book is an invaluable and practical tool for managing spinal deformities in your practice. Organized into four parts, it begins with a focus on recent advances in spine technology, starting with biomechanics, deformity classification, conservative management, and surgical indications. Subsequent chapters discuss technologic innovations, including spinal biologics, image guidance, and minimally invasive approaches for anterior and posterior spinal fusion. This introductory section is essential reading for the surgeon learning basic technique as well as for the experienced surgeon seeking to refine and enhance skills. The remaining parts focus on state-of-the-art surgical techniques for treating spinal deformity in the cervical spine, the thoracic spine, and the lumbosacral spine. Specific chapters have also been included on managing deformities at the cervicothoracic, thoracolumbar, and lumbosacropelvic junctions. In addition, both open and minimally invasive techniques are described. Organized with a consistent format, each technique chapter includes information on indications, planning and assessment, clinical problem solving, surgical technique, and postoperative care. A Who's Who of Spine Surgery The editors, Drs. Mummaneni, Lenke, and Haid; the part editors, Drs. Benzel, Kuklo, Resnick, and Shaffrey; and the contributors are world-renowned both neurosurgeons and orthopedic surgeons who have extensive experience in treating spinal deformity. Algorithms, Surgical Plans, and Tips and Tricks Aid in the Decision-Making Process Beautifully illustrated with step-by-step surgical technique, this book provides the practical advice, clinical nuances, and learning aids to assist you in the diagnosis and treatment of complex surgical deformities. Numerous imaging modalities are used to demonstrate the preoperative presentation as well as postoperative results. In addition, clinical problem-solving sections with treatment algorithms guide you in selecting the best surgical approach for each patient. Hundreds of case examples demonstrate the excellent results that can be achieved. To enhance the learning experience, an accompanying DVD with operative video is included.

The Book on the Bookshelf by Henry Petroski Pdf
From the author of the highly praised The Pencil and The Evolution of Useful Things comes another captivating history of the seemingly mundane: the book and its storage. Most of us take for granted that our books are vertical on our shelves with the spines facing out, but Henry Petroski, inveterately curious engineer, didn't. As a result, readers are guided along the astonishing evolution from papyrus scrolls boxed at Alexandria to upright books shelved at the Library of Congress. Unimpeachably researched, enviably written, and charmed with anecdotes from Seneca to Samuel Pepys to a nineteenth-century bibliophile who had to climb over his books to get into bed, The Book on the Bookshelf is indispensable for anyone who loves books.

Practical Procedures in Elective Orthopedic Surgery by Peter V. Giannoudis Pdf
With the time available to surgeons-in-training ever dwindling, there is great emphasis placed on practical learning tools. Mirroring his earlier book on practical procedures in trauma surgery, Prof Giannoudis has produced a reference in more elective techniques. In most medical schools, most emphasis is placed on orthopaedic trauma surgery, with elective techniques often delayed until much later in a surgeon’s training.

Fur(l) Parachute by Shannon Maguire Pdf
Poetry. FUR(L) PARACHUTE claims as its surrogate the Old English poem "Wulf and Eadwacer." Declining from a mutant echo of this nineteen-line fragment that appears in the tenth century Exeter manuscript as a text that might be a riddle, or an example of a woman's lament, or even a broken elegy, the language of FUR(L) PARACHUTE is further disrupted by such texts as instructions on how to make a parachute lure for fly fishing or the misreading of mathematical knot diagrams. Wryly troubling origins, this poem multiplies its outlawed longing for all that cannot cross.

Neurologic-Psychiatric Syndromes in Focus - Part II by J. Bogousslavsky Pdf
After a period in which neurology and psychiatry have become more and more defined, neurologists' interest in psychiatric topics, and vice versa, has increased. This book provides readers with an overview of the most representative neuropsychiatric syndromes such as Ganser and Capgras syndromes. It fills an existing gap in current literature and reintroduces a clinical approach. Additionally, there is a historical perspective throughout time with a focus on the most relevant clinical syndromes, offering distinct value to readers. With this approach, the book serves as a useful and stimulating guide on the diagnosis and management of neurologic psychiatric syndromes. It is for neurologists, neurosurgeons, psychiatrists, and all others interested in neuropsychiatric topics because these syndromes also called 'uncommon' may in fact be more frequent than the literature suggests.

Tuft by Kim Minkus Pdf
Poetry. With TUFT, Kim Minkus takes us on flights of poetic fancy into futures where we "observe the green elite" and "iceplants bloom in the monotony of paved paths." We tangle and climb into language and are swept into the lives of the animals that haunt the shores of our city's waterways. This is a world where worker, lover, animal and poet unite. Minkus brings Venus and Satan into one sentence and in doing so unleashes the "bitter-broken-fallen" of our world. This is a gathering that calls out to the reader to pay attention and look closely. Tuft reminds us that without words our bodies would not exist and that only time makes us secret. We are all attached to something.
