Modern Infectious Disease Epidemiology Second Edition Johan Giesecke Professor of Infectious Disease Epidemiology, Karolinska Institute, Stockholm, Sweden
The book includes a section on comparative immunology, introducing students to differences among immunological systems among common species of nonhuman animals. Written for the advanced undergraduate, the focus is on host-parasite interactions—distinguishing this text from other standard texts, which focus on the cellular mechanisms of the immune response.
Using a distinctive approach that bridges the gap between standard epidemiology and infectious disease textbooks, this book takes readers through the basics of both topics before bringing the two themes together—emphasizing the basic tools of statistics and methodology and their application in understanding the epidemiology of infectious disease. Clarity and brevity is used when discussing necessary mathematical concepts and practical statistical methods are highlighted, enabling students to get a quick clear grasp of the issues. This book was commended in the Public Health category of the 2002 BMA Medical Book Competition Awards.

Third Edition
Textbook of Receptor Pharmacology John C. Foreman, Torben Johansen, and Alasdair J. Gibb Originating from a renowned course on receptor pharmacology, this text presents in-depth coverage of this rapidly expanding research area. The book combines current understanding of classical quantitative pharmacology and drug-receptor interactions with the basics of receptor structure and signal transduction mechanisms. It focuses on molecular investigation of receptor structure, quantitative functional studies of agonists and antagonists, ligand binding, and signal transduction at the cell membrane. Maintaining the second edition’s focus on cell membrane receptors and the immediate signal transduction events at the membrane, this edition includes updated chapters on receptor structure and signal transduction by G-proteins and tyrosine kinases as well as enhancements to the quantitative treatment of drug-receptor interactions. Several chapters contain problems and worked-out solutions, giving students the ability to test their comprehension of the material. Hundreds of diagrams and figures further enhance the text.

The 100 Cases Series provides a unique learning tool that guides students and junior clinicians through clinical cases, imitating those they are likely to meet in a range of settings.

CLINICAL MEDICINE & SURGERY Study Guides Core Clinical Cases Series The problem-solving approach of Core Clinical Cases guides undergraduates to think of the patient as a whole, rather than as a sequence of unconnected symptoms. With its emphasis on everyday practice strongly linked to underlying theory, the series integrates knowledge with the realities of managing clinical problems and provides a basis for developing sound analytical decision-making skills. The core areas of undergraduate study are covered in a logical sequence of learning activities. The same questions are asked of each clinical case, followed by detailed explanatory answers. Related OSCE counseling cases with related questions and answers are also included in each section.
Features: • Uses a case-based approach suitable for problem-oriented and systems-oriented courses • Enables a thorough understanding of key concepts and the relevance of basic sciences in clinical situations • Encourages integration of knowledge across multiple disciplines, including anatomy, histology, physiology, pathology, pathophysiology, pharmacology, and biochemistry • Helps students perfect a variety of cognitive skills including hypotheses generation, collection of information, interpretation of laboratory findings, and quick decision-making

Ken Holmes and Phil Harris
Edited by
University of Cumbria, UK
Marcus Elkington Sheffield Hallam University, UK
It is essential that any practitioner working in an imaging department and using ionizing radiation has a sound knowledge base. In order to understand the various factors affecting the production of diagnostic images, practitioners must demonstrate a grasp of the fundamental definitions of physics and how these principles may be applied to radiography. The easy-to-understand, portable format of this book makes it an invaluable tool for students, assistant practitioners, and radiographers. The book opens with chapters providing an overview of image production, basic mathematics, and physics relevant to medical imaging, which are followed by detailed chapters on physics relevant to producing diagnostic images using x-rays. Each chapter features clear learning objectives and a series of MCQs to test these learning outcomes, and diagrams and photographs support the text.

Clark's Pocket Handbook for Radiographers Charles Sloane, Stewart A. Whitley, Craig Anderson, and Ken Holmes This pocket-sized guide, drawn from the twelfth edition of Clark's Positioning in Radiography, provides clear and practical advice to help radiographers in their day-to-day work. The authors considered that it is important for radiographers and students to have access to an additional text available in a “pocket” format which is easily transportable and convenient to use during everyday radiographic practice. Designed for rapid reference, it covers how to position the patient and the central ray, describes the essential image characteristics, and illustrates each radiographic projection with a positioning photograph and a radiograph. The authors have included a range of additional information new to this text. This includes a protocol for evaluating images (the “10-point plan”) and a range of general advice for undertaking procedures in a professional and efficient manner. The book also includes basic information in relation to some non-imaging diagnostic tests, common medical terminology, and abbreviations. This is designed to help readers gain a better understanding of the diagnostic requirements and role of particular imaging procedures from the information presented in x-ray requests. In addition, the book discusses image evaluation, medical abbreviations, relevant normal blood values, and radiation protection. Together with key points, this information helps the radiographer achieve the ideal image result.
