Understanding Epidemics

This book explains, in non-technical terms, the relationship between man and the many bacteria, viruses and other micro-organisms with whom he lives in the most intimate manner throughout his existence.

It is explained that for the most part, this coexistence is beneficial, but that through evolution and natural selection, some bacteria, viruses and other micro-organisms may become aggressive to the host in which they live and that others may become aggressive as a result of mutation through other species.

This aggressiveness manifests itself through the diseases which afflict man and all that is living.

The cause and nature of those diseases which have been most devastating for human society and which have greatly influenced the course of history are portrayed in this book, as are the means by which the spread of infections may be controlled before they progress to become epidemics and pandemics.

Abdominal-Pelvic Imaging

Maybe we have an obsession for cases, but when we were resident in radiology, we loved to learn especially from cases not only because they are short, exciting and fun, similar to a detective story in which the aim is to get to ‘the bottom’ of the case, but also because, in the end, that’s what radiologists are faced with during their daily work.The topics covered in the book represent the common and important diseases encountered in abdominal and pelvic imaging. The material presented for each case provides a thorough and comprehensive description of the disease entity, enabling the radiologist or the clinician to develop a clear concept of the entity through the different imaging modalities that are present. What is interesting in this book is one case per page. The book can be used as a means of rapid revision of a large number of cases in a short time or as test of knowledge by masking the radiological description and diagnosis and trying by using the clinical data and radiological images to describe first the pathology then propose a diagnosis.
