Network Epidemiology

Network Epidemiology: A Handbook for Survey Design and Data Collection (International Studies in Demography) [Hardcover] Martina Morris (Editor). Over the past two decades, the epidemic of HIV/AIDS has challenged the public health community to fundamentally rethink the framework for preventing infectious diseases. While much progress has been made on the biomedical front in treatments for HIV infection, prevention still relies on behaviour change. This book documents and explains the remarkable breakthroughs in behavioural research design that have emerged to confront this new challenge: the study of partnership networks. Professor Martina Morris is Blumstein-Jordan Chair in the Departments of Sociology and Statistics at the University of Washington. She is also Director of the Center for Studies in Demography and Ecology, Director of the Sociobehavioural and Prevention Research Core at the Center for AIDS Research, and Co-Director of the Behaviour Research Training Program at the Center for AIDS Research. She has been Professor at Pennsylvania State University and Associate Professor at Columbia University.

Atlas of Neuroanatomy and Neurophysiology: Selections from the Netter Collection of Medical Illustrations

Atlas of Neuroanatomy and
Neurophysiology

Atlas of Neuroanatomy and Neurophysiology: Selections from the Netter Collection of Medical Illustrations. This selection of the art of Dr. Frank H. Netter on neuroanatomy and neurophysiology is drawn from the Atlas of Human Anatomy and Netter’s Atlas of Human Physiology. Viewing these pictures again prompts reflection on Dr. Netter’s work and his roles as physician and artist. Like most Netter illustrations, the pictures are beautiful. The index is much too sparse, which means that you sometimes have to spend time flipping through the book to find a diagram that you know is in there somewhere. This isn't quite as bad as it could be since the book is divided into sections which make it a little easier to track things down, but it can be frustrating at times. If you're REALLY serious about learning neuroanatomy, I recommend this as an adjunct to Duaine Haines' atlas of neuroanatomy. They complement one another well. The Haines' atlas lacks color and shows most things in slices, but it has real photos in it and MRI images as well, while the Netter atlas doesn't show as many structures as Haines' atlas does. The brainstem nuclei, for example, are much better represented in the Haines' atlas. However, what the Netter's atlas does show, it shows in a manner more conducive to conveying the three-dimensional anatomy.
