Simply Cardiovascular Imaging, "CMR - Cardiovascular Magnetic Resonance Cases and Multiple Choice Questions"
English | 2018 | ASIN: B07G59Q2R7 | EPUB | pages: 57 | 1.0 mb
This short book was designed to provide trainees and students of cardiovascular magnetic resonance imaging (CMR) with simplified and practical learning points surrounding carefully selected cases in clinical practice. The cases are common and/or interesting scenarios built around pictures and multiple choice questions to enhance understanding in optimizing imaging and decision making. This can be at times challenging for some, particularly when reviewing abnormal images during a real-time CMR scan or reporting on CMR with inadequate pre-scan information. We hope that these cases will help trainees and students alike navigate through the sea of CMR sequences and understand some of the strengths and weaknesses of this wonderful machine. Above all, we hope that you will find the book easy and enjoyable to read and that it will further stimulate your interest in CMR.

David G Clark, "C.S. Lewis Goes to Heaven: A Reader's Guide to The Great Divorce"
English | 2012 | ISBN: 1936294095 | ASIN: B00W5Z8XRK | EPUB | pages: 210 | 0.5 mb
C.S. Lewis' novel, The Great Divorce, about a man who takes a bus trip from Hell to Heaven, is full of fascinating characters and conversations. C.S. Lewis Goes to Heaven is the first book dedicated to exploring this story, revealing many important secrets that have gone undetected since its publication in 1946. Discover how leaving a train station in the wrong direction provided Lewis a model for Hell. Learn the real names of an Impressionist painter and a famous detective writer that Lewis placed (anonymously) in Hell. With considerable detective work of his own, David Clark carefully expands ideas found in The Great Divorce using supporting references from Lewis' personal correspondence and other books, particularly Mere Christianity, The Screwtape Letters, Surprised by Joy and Letters to Malcolm.* * * Clark looks at the story through three different lenses. First, he introduces the characters and their interactions chapter by chapter, including a brief narrative so readers new to Lewis will feel at home. Second, he reveals how even the book's landscapes convey the theology of Lewis. Then the author comes "alongside" Lewis, explaining his theological ideas and insights, showing their far-reaching implications, and providing scriptural references. By these three approaches, the astonishing grasp of Lewis' theology is revealed in accessible language. The book concludes with three appendices, including 40 pages of historical character sketches, literary references, and concepts.* * * Considering that Lewis himself thought it surpassed his classic book, The Screwtape Letters, it's regrettable that The Great Divorce has been neglected for so long. Now for the first time, there is a comprehensive guide to help readers appreciate this profound and entertaining novel, and be awestruck by the grace of God it reveals. * * * "If you want a great guide to The Great Divorce, you can't do better than David Clark, who introduces readers to a host of fascinating historical and literary characters - illuminating this popular novel with theological insight and devotional delight. Clark's tour of C. S. Lewis' version of Heaven and Hell provides a truly refreshing holiday." * * * Terry Lindvall, author of Surprised by Laughter: The Comic World of C.S. Lewis

In chapters written by scholars, artists, and independent researchers, readers will learn of anearly musician, the sales of slaves in Scotland, the grave - now a shrine - of a black enslaved boy left to die in Morecombe Bay, of a country estate owned by a mixed-race slave owner, and of the two strikingly different people who lived in a Bristol house that is now a museum. Black sailors,political activists, memoirists, appear in these pages, but the book also re-examines living history, in the form of modern plays, television programmes, and genealogical sleuthing. Through them, Britain's Black Past is not only presented anew, but shown to be very much alive in our own time.

Ross Coen, "Breaking Ice for Arctic Oil: The Epic Voyage of the SS Manhattan through the Northwest Passage"
English | 2012 | ISBN: 1602231699 | PDF | pages: 249 | 2.6 mb
In 1969, an icebreaking tanker, the SS Manhattan, was commissioned by Humble Oil to transit the Northwest Passage in order to test the logistical and economic feasibility of an all-marine transportation system for Alaska North Slope crude oil. Proposed as an alternative to the Trans-Alaska Pipeline, the Manhattan made two voyages to the North American Arctic and collected volumes of scientific data on ice conditions and the behavior of ships in ice. Although the Manhattan successfully navigated the Northwest Passage-closing a five-hundred-year chapter of Arctic exploration by becoming the first commercial vessel to do so-the expedition ultimately demonstrated the impracticality of moving crude oil using icebreaking ships.
