Veterinary Neuroanatomy: A Clinical Approach (PDF)
by Christine Thomson Caroline HahnVeterinary Neuroanatomy: A Clinical Approach is written by veterinary neurologists for anyone with an interest in the functional, applied anatomy and clinical dysfunction of the nervous system in animals, especially when of veterinary significance. It offers a user-friendly approach, providing the principal elements that students and clinicians need to understand and interpret the results of the neurological examination. Clinical cases are used to illustrate key concepts throughout. The book begins with an overview of the anatomical arrangement of the nervous system, basic embryological development, microscopic anatomy and physiology. These introductory chapters are followed by an innovative, hierarchical approach to understanding the overall function of the nervous system. The applied anatomy of posture and movement, including the vestibular system and cerebellum, is comprehensively described and illustrated by examples of both function and dysfunction. The cranial nerves and elimination systems as well as behaviour, arousal and emotion are discussed. The final chapter addresses how to perform and interpret the neurological examination. Veterinary Neuroanatomy: A Clinical Approach has been prepared by experienced educators with 35 years of combined teaching experience in neuroanatomy. Throughout the book great care is taken to explain key concepts in the most transparent and memorable way whilst minimising jargon. Detailed information for those readers with specific interests in clinical neuroanatomy is included in the text and appendix. As such, it is suitable for veterinary students, practitioners and also readers with a special interest in clinical neuroanatomy.

Vasant Bhag 2 class 7 - NCERT: वसंत भाग 2 कक्षा 7 - एनसीईआरटी
by Rashtriy Shaikshik Anusandhan Aur Prashikshan Parishadयह पाठ्यपुस्तक राष्ट्रीय पाठ्यचर्या की रूपरेखा (2005) के आधार पर तैयार किए गए पाठ्यक्रम पर आधारित है। यह पारंपरिक भाषा-शिक्षण की कई सीमाओं से आगे जाती है। राष्ट्रीय पाठ्यचर्या की नयी रूपरेखा भाषा को विद्यार्थी के व्यक्तित्व का सबसे समृद्ध संसाधन मानते हुए उसे पाठ्यक्रम के हर विषय से जोड़कर देखती है। इस नाते पाठ्यसामग्री का चयन और अभ्यासों में विद्यार्थी के भाषायी विकास की समग्रता को ध्यान में रखा गया है। कई प्रश्न-अभ्यास भाषा शिक्षण की परिचित परिधि से बाहर जाकर प्रकृति, समाज, विज्ञान, इतिहास आदि में विद्यार्थी की जिज्ञासा को नए आयाम देते हैं। पाठ केंद्रित प्रश्नों को क्रमशः विस्तार देते हुए पाठ के आसपास के ज्ञान-क्षेत्रों को भी दूसरे प्रश्न-समूहों में साथ रखने का प्रयास किया गया है। भाषा की बात करते हुए ऐसे शब्दों और प्रयोगों पर विद्यार्थी का ध्यान दिलाया गया है जिन्हें समाज की जीवंतता को साहित्यिक कृतियों में समेटते हुए साहित्यकार अपनी कृति में रखना आवश्यक समझते हैं और अकसर ऐसे आंचलिक शब्द और वाक्य प्रयोग आज के शहरी जीवन में अपेक्षाकृत कम सुनाई पड़ते हैं।

Us Government And Politics (PDF)
by William StoreyThe US political system is designed to ensure that freedom and opportunity will always be protected, by making it almost impossible for power to become concentrated in the hands of a few people seeking to run society for their own benefit. Have these aims been achieved? The answer is that Americans have sharply contrasting views on how well their political system works. They disagreed with each other when they established the system at the Constitutional Convention in 1787 and have continued to disagree ever since. This book covers the key issues, political systems and governing institutions at the heart of these disagreements, outlining the thinking behind the main points of view, to help its readers decide for themselves which viewpoint they find most persuasive. This new edition of the best-selling introduction to US Government and Politics has been completely revised and updated to reflect the changes in the area since the election of the new President. Key Features *Presents a readable, accessible but academically stimulating introduction to the government and politics of the USA *Evaluates the US political system through the topics of: the Constitution; Race; the Supreme Court; Federalism; Elections; Political Parties; Pressure Groups; Congress; The Presidency

Understanding Community: Politics, Policy and Practice (Second Edition) (PDF) (Understanding Welfare: Social Issues, Policy And Practice Ser.)
by Peter SomervilleThis substantially revised edition of a highly topical text draws upon theory from Marx and Bourdieu to offer a clearer understanding of community in capitalist society. The book takes a more critical look at the literature on community, community development and the politics of community, and applies this critical approach to themes introduced in the first edition on economic development, learning, health and social care, housing, and policing, taking into account the changes in policy that have taken place, particularly in the UK, since the first edition was written. The book also explores the dark side of community to show how phenomena such as riots, gangs and terrorism can be understood as expressions of alternative ways to organise in search of community. It will be a valuable resource for researchers and students of social policy, sociology and politics as well as areas of housing and urban studies.
