The Novartis Foundation produces Symposia, in which groups of leading scientists from a range of topics across biology, chemistry and medicine assembled to present papers and discuss results. The Novartis Foundation, originally known as the Ciba Foundation, is well known to scientists and clinicians around the world. From Wikipedia: "Cardiopulmonary resuscitation commonly known as (CPR) is an emergency procedure performed in an effort to manually preserve intact brain function until further measures are taken to restore spontaneous blood circulation and breathing in a person who is in cardiac arrest. It is indicated in those who are unresponsive with no breathing or abnormal breathing, for example, agonal respirations. According to the International Liaison Committee on Resuscitation guidelines, CPR involves chest compressions at least 5 cm (2 in) deep and at a rate of at least 100 per minute in an effort to create artificial circulation by manually pumping blood through the heart and thus the body. The rescuer may also provide breaths by either exhaling into the subject's mouth or nose or using a device that pushes air into the subject's lungs. This process of externally providing ventilation is termed artificial respiration. Current recommendations place emphasis on high-quality chest compressions over artificial respiration; a simplified CPR method involving chest compressions only is recommended for untrained rescuers. CPR alone is unlikely to restart the heart. Its main purpose is to restore partial flow of oxygenated blood to the brain and heart. The objective is to delay tissue death and to extend the brief window of opportunity for a successful resuscitation without permanent brain damage. Administration of an electric shock to the subject's heart, termed defibrillation, is usually needed in order to restore a viable or "perfusing" heart rhythm. Defibrillation is effective only for certain heart rhythms, namely ventricular fibrillation or pulseless ventricular tachycardia, rather than asystole or pulseless electrical activity. CPR may succeed in inducing a heart rhythm that may be shockable. In general, CPR is continued until the patient has a return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC) or is declared dead." From a Mayo Clinic on-line posting: "Research in emergency medicine, including how to improve survival rates, has been a keystone of the career of Roger D. White, M.D. His work and dedication have helped save thousands of lives. Mayo Clinic anesthesiologist Roger D. White, M.D., has indirectly saved countless lives through his research-based improvements to CPR and emergency medicine technology. Not all superheroes wear capes. Roger D. White, M.D., an anesthesiologist who favors button-down shirts and ties, has saved countless lives through groundbreaking work in cardiac resuscitation at Mayo Clinic in Rochester, Minn. His discoveries helped pave the way for the placement of defibrillators in airports and other public places, better CPR practices and education, and faster emergency response times. Mayo Clinic made headlines recently when Dr. White directed a helicopter flight crew that successfully performed CPR on a man with no pulse for 96 minutes." From Wikipedia: "Frank H. Netter (25 April 1906 17 September 1991) was an American surgeon and celebrated medical illustrator. The first edition of his Atlas of Human Anatomy his "personal Sistine Chapel" was published in 1989; he was a Fellow of the New York Academy of Medicine where he was first published in 1957. He began a commercial art career, quickly achieving success and doing work for the Saturday Evening Post and The New York Times. However, his family disapproved of a career as an artist and he agreed to study medicine. After getting a degree at the City College of New York, he completed medical school. Good.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Wroxeter: Ashes under Uricon offers a perspective on how people over time have viewed the abandoned Roman city of Wroxeter in Shropshire. It responds to three main artistic outputs relating to the site: poetry, images and texts. The poets include Wilfred Owen, A.E. Housman and Mary Webb. The writers cover a range of interests relating to the site but include Darwin, Dickens, Rosemary Sutcliff and John Buchan. The artists are perhaps less well-known but include watercolours by Thomas Girtin, archaeological reconstructions by Alan Sorrell and Amedee Forrestier, and paintings by Wroxeter's own resident artist, Thomas Prytherch. Photographs are represented by the work of Francis Bedford and others more closely associated with aerial archaeology such as J.K. St Joseph and Arnold Baker. While the famous names have their value, The book also investigates what locals and visitors thought of the site over time - how they perceived it and have responded to it. It reflects in particular upon how the public and locals responded to the archaeological discoveries on the site and perceived the narratives that were created by the archaeologists working on it. It contends that archaeologists are just as much story-tellers as the writers, poets or artists, although their work is more filtered or controlled, and through these narratives, they inspire others. A further strand to the book is to explore the increasing focus over the past century on the democratisation of access to and understanding of the site, alongside increasing state intervention in its running. This too has had its impact on who visits and what is understood about the site. A short concluding section offers a vision of how the site might develop in the near-future, and how its cultural side might flourish once again. …

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - In the mid 1990s, the site of the Roman city of Viroconium Cornoviorum at Wroxeter, Shropshire, was subjected to one of the most intensive campaigns of geophysical survey ever carried out on a Roman town. The result was a complete plan of the city using magnetometry but also significant deployment of other technologies including resistance, GPR and more experimental technologies. Since that time, geophysical survey has continued intermittently, using the site as a geophysical laboratory. This volume reports on the archaeological interpretation of this work, marrying the extensive and nuanced geophysical data with a detailed analysis of the existing aerial photographic record created by Arnold Baker during the 1950s to 1980s. The resulting work is the first insula by insula description of all the visible buildings in the town, the first time that this has been attempted for a Romano-British town, and one of the few attempted anywhere in the Empire. The analysis has enabled a complete reinterpretation of the historical development of the town that links it to its surrounding hinterland and to wider concerns about Roman Urban development. The volume also contains detail of small-scale excavations that have been carried out since 1999 on the site, many in previously unexplored areas, and completes the publication of all outstanding archaeological work on the monument.…

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Celebrates the 100th publication of the Shropshire Archaeological and Historical Society, showcasing new research on the county's history and archaeology.Shropshire, as one of the contributors to this volume notes, is simultaneously remote and well-connected . which also means it is often (but wrongly) overlooked and underestimated. This volume of collected papers - newly commissioned and bringing entirely new research into play - was brought together to commemorate the issuing of the 100th volume of the Shropshire Archaeological and Historical Society's Transactions. It offers snapshots of Shropshire's past, from the earliest prehistory to the end of the twentieth century. As befits the Society, it offers both archaeological and historic perspectives and demonstrates the importance of the county in the wider context of the United Kingdom. While not attempting to be comprehensive in its contents, it nonetheless offers insights into how the county came into being, and the forces that shaped it, not the least of which is its extraordinarily diverse geology. The volume offers too a perspective of those historically researching Shropshire's past, often women who gained their foothold either through teaching on or participating in adult education.This is certainly the first attempt to offer a comprehensive overview of Shropshire in over 50 years, and what it seeks to achieve in its scope has not been attempted before. The Society's aim is both to showcase the research going on in the county, but also to parade its riches: there is much more to learn about Shropshire, and it is hoped this book will encourage others to take up its challenges and continue to allow the understanding of the county to flourish.The contributors to this volume almost all have long-standing connections to Shropshire, and some are also proud Salopians. Most are based in the county, and continue their long-term research there, while one holds a significant role in the protection of Shropshire's heritage. …
