Download or read book The Little GI Book written by Douglas Adler and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2020 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The success of the first edition of this volume has been very gratifying to see. In my travels, I have met literally hundreds of students, nurses, physicians assistants, and physicians who have told me that they had read The Little GI Book and how much it helped them learn the fundamentals of gastroenterology and hepatology. In the years since The Little GI Book was published, much has changed in the world of gastroenterology and hepatology. This can be seen both with regard to diagnosis and treatment of many gastrointestinal disorders. The following are just a few examples: Hepatitis C is, for all intents and purposes, curable at the time of this writing. The use and role of biologics and biosimilars to treat inflammatory bowel disease have exploded. The development of transluminal stents has given rise to a whole new class of endoscopic procedures that were previously unimaginable. Endoscopic submucosal techniques have allowed endoscopic submucosal dissection, peroral endoscopic myomectomy, and gastric peroral endoscopic myomectomy to become commonplace at many institutions. Advances like these, and many others, spurred me to produce a second edition of The Little GI Book. As I have gone through each of the chapters, I have added information on new diseases, new medications, and new procedures. Many new images have been added for this edition. I have also removed out-of-date material as well. In contrast to the first edition, all of the endoscopic images in this volume are now in color, which should make them even more useful. As with the first edition, I wrote this book with the broadest readership possible in mind. I know that, for many readers, this will be the first book on gastroenterology and hepatology they ever read, so I want to keep the tone and tenor of the book as accessible as possible. I hope that you find reading this book as enjoyable as I found writing it!"--

Download or read book The Revolution of Little Girls written by Blanche McCary Boyd and published by Vintage. This book was released on 2011-02-02 with total page 214 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: No matter how hard she tries, Ellen Burns will never be Scarlett O'Hara. As a little girl in South Carolina, she prefers playing Tarzan to playing Jane. As a teenage beauty queen she spikes her Cokes with spirits of ammonia and baffles her elders with her Freedom Riding sympathies. As a young woman in the 1960s and '70s, she hypnotizes her way to Harvard, finds herself as a lesbian, then very nearly loses herself to booze and shamans. And though the wry, rebellious, and vision-haunted heroine of this exhilarating novel may sometimes seem to be living a magnolia-scented Portrait of the Artist as a Young Woman, Blanche McCrary Boyd's The Revolution Of Little Girls is a completely original arid captivating work.
