"This title is part of the Tips and Tricks series we are developing in the orthopaedic surgery list, based on Harborview's Illustrated Tips and Tricks in Fracture Surgery. That title is unique in its approach in that it doesn't offer a comprehensive review of surgical procedures, nor does it offer a comprehensive review of the knowledge-base underlying orthopaedic trauma and its management. Instead it offers the sort of wisdom attending surgeons pass on to residents or fellows about how to perform surgery. These tips and tricks are often highly technical and also often highly contextual: "in this type of patient, I tend to use approach X for these reasons, while in other types of patients I ...

The time lines of the book of Daniel, extending to the very eve of The Second Coming of Jesus (do not give the day and hour of His coming), but throw a flood of light on events then to transpire. Daniel gives the basic prophecy and Revelation gives a fuller explanation of that prophecy with added detail. The authors intend to assist the reader by supplying illustrative pictures, maps, structure charts revealing alignment and continuity, Webster's Dictionary definitions of English words, and Strong's Analytical Concordance definitions of original Hebrew. This method, making the Bible its own expositor, does not deny past applications, but permits the emphasis to focus on current events and al...

Privacy is one of the most important concepts of our time, yet it is also one of the most elusive. As rapidly changing technology makes information increasingly available, scholars, activists, and policymakers have struggled to define privacy, with many conceding that the task is virtually impossible. In this concise and lucid book, Daniel J. Solove offers a comprehensive overview of the difficulties involved in discussions of privacy and ultimately provides a provocative resolution. He argues that no single definition can be workable, but rather that there are multiple forms of privacy, related to one another by family resemblances. His theory bridges cultural differences and addresses hist...
