Tel Aviv University, Israel

“The book by Kessel and Ben-Tal offers a unique combination of structure, thermodynamics, and biology. I was impressed both by the breadth of the topics covered and by the depth in which they are treated. General principles are made intuitively clear based on well-chosen examples, many of them having relevance to disease. The book could fit well as a textbook in structural biology and molecular biophysics courses.”

—Barry Honig, Columbia University, New York, New York, USA

With more than 350 color images throughout, this text presents a unified, in-depth treatment of the relationship between the structure, dynamics, and function of proteins. Taking a structural–biophysical approach, the authors discuss the molecular interactions and thermodynamic changes that transpire in these highly complex molecules. Examples illustrate how proteins can be analyzed in multiple ways and the text refers to applications of proteins and enzymes in medical disorders, drugs, toxins, chemical warfare, and animal behavior. Downloadable questions for each chapter are available online.

• Discusses experimental and computational methods used for studying protein structure and dynamics • Presents an extensive discussion of the energetics of protein structure • Describes protein–ligand interactions • Provides downloadable questions for each chapter at www.crcpress.com Solutions manual and figure slides available upon qualifying course adoption

CLINICAL MEDICINE & SURGERY Imaging Forthcoming!

Clark’s Positioning in Radiography 13th Edition Edited by

Craig Anderson, A. Stewart Whitley, Ken Holmes, Charles Sloane, Graham Hoadley, and Adrian D. Moore First published in 1939, Clark’s Positioning in Radiography is the preeminent text on positioning technique for diagnostic radiographers. While retaining the clear and easy-to-follow structure of previous editions, the thirteenth edition includes a number of changes and innovations in radiographic technique.

The text has been extensively updated, including a section on evaluating images—The Ten Point Plan.

The section on digital imaging has been expanded to elaborate more extensively on the technology and to demonstrate its various clinical applications.

Students will also benefit from a more detailed reference to positioning errors and how to avoid mistakes, as well as a greater emphasis on standard radiation protection measures and guidance on the most recent radiation dose reference levels for specific examinations. This new edition includes more anatomical drawings to support a better understanding of radiographic anatomy, as well as brand-new positioning photographs reflecting the different approaches in technique using a variety of imaging platforms available in radiography departments.

Clark’s Positioning in Radiography will continue to be the definitive work on radiographic technique for all students on diagnostic radiography courses, radiographers in practice, and trainee radiologists. The book includes new and updated sections on evaluating images and essential image characteristics for each procedure, plus non-imaging diagnostic tests, medical terminology, and common abbreviations.

Interpreting an ECG correctly is an essential skill for evaluating a patient’s condition.

This book helps both students and health care practitioners identify and answer crucial questions such as whether abnormalities are significant enough to require a referral to the emergency department, inpatient ward, or outpatient setting. The book explains important functions such as the axis, PR and QT intervals, QRS complex, ST segment, and the P, Q, T, and U waves. It also discusses artefacts on the ECG, pacemakers, cardioverter defibrillators, ambulatory ECG recording, exercise ECG testing, and cardiopulmonary resuscitation.

• Provides essential information for evaluating ECG reports • Presents a strong clinical emphasis, focusing on correct diagnosis and appropriate referral • Uses a new larger format, allowing for clear presentation of full 12-lead ECG traces

Designed to accompany Making Sense of the ECG: A Hands-On Guide, this supplemental testing resource presents everything students need to assess their ability to interpret ECGs accurately, perform a differential diagnosis, and decide upon the most appropriate clinical management in each situation. The patient’s history, examination, and initial investigations are presented along with questions on ECG interpretation. Detailed explanatory answers provide practical guidance and essential revision, encouraging students to put principles into practice with a strong clinical emphasis.

Building on the success of the original work, the second edition provides an upto-date, accessible overview with a strong clinical focus and an emphasis on real-life scenarios, making it especially relevant to day-to-day practice. New chapters discuss myocardial mechanics and speckle tracking along with 3D echo. The book also contains significantly expanded and updated material on various topics including contrast echo, tissue Doppler imaging, intravascular ultrasound and epicardial echo, the left ventricle and its systolic function, left ventricular diastolic function, and the left atrium. This edition is supplemented with new illustrations and an website.

• Provides a concise yet comprehensive introduction to echocardiography • Guides users through everyday clinical problems and their solutions • Explores the supporting topics of ultrasound physics, anatomy, physiology, and clinical cardiology • Includes new material on advanced echo techniques • Presents colour illustrations and echocardiography images to clarify material

When a patient presents to the emergency department, the GP practice, or the outpatient clinic with a range of clinical signs, the chest x-ray is one of the most valuable diagnostic tools available to the attending physician. Accurate interpretation and understanding of the chest x-ray is therefore a crucial skill that all medical students, interns, and residents must acquire to quickly formulate an appropriate management plan.

Featuring an easy-to-read format, this volume includes more than 200 high-quality photographs and diagrams as well as a question and answer section for self-testing. The second edition of this wellreceived pocket guide remains the perfect introduction to the subject.

100 Cases in Psychiatry Edited by

Barry Wright, Subodh Dave, and Nisha Dogra “While most psychiatric books describe psychiatric disorders without the context of a patient, this book adds an extra dimension by describing mental illnesses in the context of a particular patient... The list of questions encourages readers to ask even more questions, prompting them to consider a wide variety of diagnoses, assessments, and treatment options...

Among the excellent topics the book covers are the basic tenets of CBT, the CAGE questionnaire, and Schneider’s first rank symptoms of schizophrenia... Medical students will find this to be an outstanding book, helping them to learn how to assess not just diseases, but the patients as well.”

Understanding Neurology A Problem-Oriented Approach John Greene Southern General Hospital, Glasgow, UK

Ian Bone Southern General Hospital, Glasgow, UK

Winner of a 2008 BMA Medical Book Award, Understanding Neurology takes a problem-oriented approach to the evaluation of common symptoms presenting to medical students. It begins with taking the patient’s history and then proceeds to discussing the neurological examination. The book outlines common presenting symptoms such as forgetfulness, dizziness, and pain and relates them to the spectrum of possible neurological conditions and diseases.

By combining a symptom and problem-based approach with systematic coverage, the book appeals to instructors and students on both traditional and integrated courses.
