Ventidue anni fa la prima comparsa in Italia di bell hooks, autrice di riferimento sul tema del razzismo subito dalle donne nere negli Usa. Oggi la sua riscoperta diventa quanto mai necessaria. Nei saggi di Elogio del margine, scopriamo i luoghi in cui si è svolta e si svolge la resistenza delle donne afroamericane, a partire dalla casa, scudo di protezione dalla violenza razzista. In Scrivere al buio, dialogo critico e allo stesso tempo intimo con Maria Nadotti, bell hooks mette il suo pensiero alla prova di argomenti ordinari: i rapporti familiari e di coppia, l’istruzione, l’uso del denaro, la pratica della scrittura. Il pensiero femminista deve parlare alle donne di condizione meno agiata, riconoscendo la storia particolare delle donne afroamericane.

While paediatric cardiology may be a small specialty, it is important to note that congenital heart disease ranks as the most prevalent congenital condition globally. As a result, cardiac problems form a significant part of the workload of many general paediatricians, neonatologists, and other paediatric specialists. Beyond congenital heart conditions, acquired heart diseases are frequently encountered in general practice. The management of heart-related conditions can often be complex, leading to apprehension for junior doctors during their rotations in this field. The Oxford Specialist Handbook of Paediatric Cardiology aims to address this challenge and provides essential insights into the diagnosis, management, and care of young patients with heart conditions. This comprehensive guide to paediatric cardiology takes a systematic approach to heart lesions which will form a major part of the book, offering quick two-page refreshers for clinicians. It covers common heart surgeries, diagnostic frameworks, major investigations, and subspecialties like interventional cardiology, fetal cardiology, and more. It also addresses drug therapy, emergencies, psychology, and palliative care. This book includes everything that a junior doctor needs when starting in the speciality and will also be a valuable reference guide for more senior trainees and consultants.

Gain a solid foundation in A&P with this easy-to-understand text! Clear and straightforward, Structure & Function of the Body, 17th Edition introduces the typical structure and function of the human body and describes what the body does to maintain homeostasis. The book shows how structure fits function, using clinical examples to reinforce A&P concepts and featuring hundreds of photos and micrographs for realistic visual detail. Written by a team of experts led by Kevin Patton, this text includes an Evolve website packed with animations, audio pronunciations, review questions, and other interactive learning resources. NEW! Updated content is added, and new line art and photos ensure wider representation of skin color, sex, age, body type, and cultural diversity NEW! Inclusive terminology reduces the emphasis on eponyms - for example, the term “normal” is more carefully used to avoid implying that healthy conditions outside the average are “abnormal.” NEW! The latest scientific thinking introduces or expands upon emerging core concepts such as the human microbiome, with a new diagram illustrating the changes in the microbiome throughout the human life cycle Clear, conversational writing style is paired with “chunked” content, which breaks down the material into smaller, bite-sized bits of information that are easier to read and understand More than 400 full-color photos, micrographs, and drawings illustrate the diversity and detail of the human body Language of Science and Medicine lists in each chapter includes key terms, pronunciations, and word parts to highlight new or complex medical terminology NEW!
