Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The comparison of established methods in surgery is necessary in order to evaluate the advantages or disadvantages of each. We have therefore tried to include discussions of all the problems which arise in the treat ment of long-gap esophageal atresia. The long-term results of different types of colonic interposition, of different "stretching" procedures, and of simple staged surgery seemed especially worthy of discussion. It was also important to describe the role of complications caused by special pathology of the trachea in esophageal atresia and their management. Second, new problems continue to arise with regard to the prenatal diagnosis of malformations. These new aspects will continue to exert an influence on our surgical field. Malformations pose severe problems for parents, the growing fetus, and the doctors and are lasting burdens on our task. PETER WURNIG, Vienna Contents I.

Download or read book The Devil s Playbook written by Lauren Etter and published by Crown. This book was released on 2021-05-25 with total page 512 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: NEW YORK TIMES EDITORS’ CHOICE • Big Tobacco meets Silicon Valley in this “deeply reported and illuminating” (The New York Times Book Review) corporate exposé of what happened when two of the most notorious industries collided—and the vaping epidemic was born. “The best business book I’ve read since Bad Blood.”—Jonathan Eig, New York Times bestselling author of Ali: A Life Howard Willard lusted after Juul. As the CEO of tobacco giant Philip Morris’s parent company and a veteran of the industry’s long fight to avoid being regulated out of existence, he grew obsessed with a prize he believed could save his company—the e-cigarette, a product with all the addictive upside of the original without the same apparent health risks and bad press. Meanwhile, in Silicon Valley, Adam Bowen and James Monsees began working on a device that was meant to save lives and destroy Big Tobacco, but they ended up baking the industry’s DNA into their invention’s science and marketing. Ultimately, Juul’s e-cigarette was so effective and so market-dominating that it put the company on a collision course with Philip Morris and sparked one of the most explosive public health crises in recent memory. In a deeply reported account, award-winning journalist Lauren Etter tells a riveting story of greed and deception in one of the biggest botched deals in business history. Etter shows how Philip Morris’s struggle to innovate left Willard desperate to acquire Juul, even as his own team sounded alarms about the startup’s reliance on underage customers. And she shows how Juul’s executives negotiated a lavish deal that let them pocket the lion’s share of Philip Morris’s $12.8 billion investment while government regulators and furious parents mounted a campaign to hold the company’s feet to the fire. The Devil’s Playbook is the inside story of how Juul’s embodiment of Silicon Valley’s “move fast and break things” ethos wrought havoc on American health, and how a beleaguered tobacco company was seduced by the promise of a new generation of addicted customers. With both companies’ eyes on the financial prize, neither anticipated the sudden outbreak of vaping-linked deaths that would terrorize a nation, crater Juul’s value, end Willard’s career, and show the costs in human life of the rush to riches—while Juul’s founders, board members, and employees walked away with a windfall.

Book excerpt: Amber Approved: Gluten, Sugar & Dairy-Free Recipes to Nourish This Life is the first of many volumes of Amber Approved recipes to come. All recipes are gluten, refined sugar, dairy, corn and soy free. There are recipes for breakfast, lunch, dinner, snacks, smoothies and sweet treats that we all love and enjoy. For Amber it's all about being able to eat whole foods, but not feel deprived. She has figured out how to shift the more refined and allergenic ingredients into more natural options with more nutrient value that will better support the body on a physical, emotional and mental level. You no longer have to feel guilty if you want to make a batch of cookies or have banana bread French toast for breakfast. Or perhaps you're bored of your smoothie and it needs a revamp. After Amber went through her own sensitivities to gluten, sugar and dairy she went on a journey to research the different effects they had on the body and she realized it was making a big impact on her physical, mental and emotional health when she ate foods containing these substances. Not only did Amber have sensitivities to these foods, but at the same time was going through a deep phase of emotional & binge eating and was addicted to sugar and gluten. Cutting them out took dozens of attempts. After learning how to create any meal or snack Amber wanted free of refined ingredients, she no longer feels deprived and can enjoy whatever she wants. As she says if she can stomach it, it's Amber Approved.
