Coding for Penetration Testers: Building Better Tools

Syngress Publishing, 2011

My Dear Reader,

This wretched war, the gravest threat humankind has ever faced, is not going well at all.We have suffered major setbacks, as our ruthless adversary has conquered vast territories, leaving little ground controlled by our ragtag band of rebels. Our few surviving generals blame the lack of skills in our fighting...

Multidimensional Liquid Chromatography: Theory and Applications in Industrial Chemistry and the Life Sciences

John Wiley & Sons, 2008

At least two driving forces have contributed to the recent increased use and development of multidimensional liquid chromatography (MDLC). These include the high resolution and peak capacity needed for proteomics studies and the independent size and chemical structure selectivity for resolving industrial polymers. In this regard,...

The Black Death (Great Historic Disasters)

Chelsea House Publications, 2008

In 1346, Europe was hit by the worst natural disaster in its recorded history: the Black Death. Generally believed to be a combination of bubonic plague and two other plague strains, the Black Death ravaged the length and breadth of Europe from Sicily to Norway, from Ireland to Russia, for five terrible years. Scholars can...

Text Atlas of Podiatric Dermatology

CRC Press, 2001

For many years there has been a very positive link between podiatry and clinical dermatology, but unfortunately they largely remain apart in most medical cultures, both in training and in practice. Where they have begun to overlap in the clinical treatment of foot dermatological problems the benefits rapidly become obvious to those...

Radiology of the Postoperative GI Tract

Springer, 2002

The focus of this book is on the normal postoperative appearance of the gastrointestinal tract and the abnormalities specific to various surgical techniques. The authors have generally avoided the topics of abscesses, leaks, and other fluid collections unless specific attention was warranted. The imaging of recurrent neoplasm...

Obstetric/Gynecologic, An Issue of Ultrasound Clinics, 1e (The Clinics: Radiology)

Saunders, 2008

This issue of the Ultrasound Clinics is dedicated to ultrasound imaging of the abdomen. Abdominal ultrasound is often the first-line imaging modality used to evaluate the kidneys, liver, gallbladder, pancreas, spleen, abdominal aorta, and other blood vessels in the abdomen, and as such can be extremely helpful in...

Bacterial Genomes and Infectious Diseases

Humana Press, 2006

The first bacterial genome, Haemophilus influenzae, was completely sequenced, annotated, and published in 1995. Today, more than 200 prokaryotic (archaeal and bacterial) genomes have been completed and over 500 prokaryotic genomes are in various stages of completion. Seventeen eukaryotic genomes plus four eukaryotic chromosomes...

Hip Sonography: Diagnosis and Management of Infant Hip Dysplasia

Springer, 2006

Orthopaedic surgeons, paediatricians and radiologists all deal with the problem of dislocation and dysplasia of the infant hip. If dysplasia and displacement of the infant hip are described together under the heading “Disorders of Hip Maturation” then together they constitute the commonest disease of the...

Quality of Life and Human Difference: Genetic Testing, Health Care, and Disability

Cambridge University Press, 2005

Genetic technology has enabled us to test fetuses for an increasing number of diseases and impairments. On the basis of this genetic information, prospective parents can predict – and prevent – the birth of children likely to have those conditions. In developed countries, prenatal genetic testing has now become a...

Insulin Resistance: Insulin Action and its Disturbances in Disease

John Wiley & Sons, 2005

Hormone resistance syndromes are typically thought of as rare, usually genetic, disorders with a severe but relatively stereotyped clinical and biochemical profile. While there are syndromes of severe insulin resistance that conform to this description, defective insulin action is of much more pervasive biomedical importance....

Primary Intraocular Lymphoma

World Scientific Publishing, 2007

In medicine and science, two inseparable sisters, a modern renaissance has occurred in which the pursuit of knowledge has provided the world with fascinating discoveries and answers to age-old questions. Perhaps one of the most shining and striking moments in this modern renaissance was the elucidation of the human genome. From...

Synthetic Nucleic Acids as Inhibitors of Gene Expression: Mechanisms, Applications, and Therapeutic Implications

CRC Press, 2004

In the post-genomic era we have, at our fingertips, an incredible array of genomic sequences from a multitude of complex organisms. There remains, however, the critical need to understand the precise roles individual genes play in complex biological milieu. Synthetic nucleic acids are at the cutting-edge of molecular strategies that target...
