Breast Surgery
A Companion to Specialist Surgical Practice
J Michael Dixon , Matthew D. Barber
editore: Elsevier Health Sciences
pagine: 290
Breast Surgery meets the needs of surgeons in higher training and practising consultants for a contemporary and evidence-based account of this sub-specialty that is relevant to their general surgical practice. It is a practical reference source incorporating the most current information on recent developments, management issues and operative procedures. The text is thoroughly referenced and supported by evidence-based recommendations wherever possible, distinguishing between strong evidence to support a conclusion, and evidence suggesting that a recommendation can be reached on the balance of probabilities. For this Sixth Edition the authorship team across the series has been expanded to include additional European and World experts, with an increased emphasis on global practice. Throughout all six volumes the contents have been extensively revised in line with recently published evidence. Detailed supportive key references are provided and are also included within the comprehensive list of references in the accompanying ebook. Links to recommended online videos have been added where appropriate. The Companion to Specialist Surgical Practice series provides a current and concise summary of the key topics within the major sub-specialties of general surgery. Each volume highlights evidence-based practice both in the text and within the extensive list of references at the end of every chapter. This new edition of Breast Surgery has a revised structure that better reflects the patient pathway through the breast service. New authors have brought new insights into rapidly evolving areas including more sophisticated breast assessment, the increasing options for breast conservation using oncoplastic techniques, and primary medical therapy. An emphasis on patient assessment and surgical techniques are the cornerstone of this revised edition.

Viaggi e avventure della Serendipity. Saggio di semantica sociologica e sociologia della scienza
Robert K. Merton , Elinor G. Barber
editore: Il Mulino
pagine: 480
"Serendipity": inventato nel 1754 da Horace Walpole, il termine, che sta a indicare quel misto di sagacia e fortuna con il quale si giunge a compiere inintenzionalmente scoperte felici, viene altrettanto ingegnosamente re-inventato negli anni '40 da Merton che lo introduce nelle scienze sociali. Nella serendipity egli scorgeva il modello in grado di rendere conto del dato "imprevisto, anomalo e strategico" nel processo della scoperta scientifica. Queste pagine seguono le peripezie dell'esoterica parola lungo due secoli, ricostruendo il contesto sociale e culturale entro cui fu coniata nel Settecento; il clima d'opinione in cui essa apparve per la prima volta a stampa nell'Ottocento; le variegate risposte che l'incontro col neologismo suscitò; la sua diffusione e riconcettualizzazione, fino alla metà del Novecento, nei diversi circoli di bibliofili, letterati, collezionisti, lessicografi, scienziati della natura e sociologi, e quindi presso il grande pubblico; gli usi ideologici a cui si è prestata. Rimasto inedito dal 1958, questo studio è una cronaca delle peregrinazioni della "parola-e-concetto" dal minuscolo palcoscenico degli arcani alla grande scena dell'uso comune. Ad ancorarlo al presente il sinuoso, e squisitamente mertoniano, excursus autobiografico che chiude il volume.
