Everywhere in the world, tiles add colour and decoration to the façades and interiors of buildings. Both functional and decorative, and found in a multitude of shapes, sizes and designs – ranging from complex geometrical Islamic patterns to figurative 17th-century Delftware – they are among the most varied ceramic products. This striking book gathers together a diverse collection of ceramic tiles, and explores their rich history, purpose and decorative qualities.
An introduction traces the little-known history of tiles, from their earliest mass production in Europe in the 13th century to today, and presents the development of different types of tile. Throughout this stunning book, tiles in every variety of shape are organized chronologically to illustrate the evolution of styles. The Tile Book is luxuriously illustrated, with generous examples of each individual tile type and their overall laid patterns exhibited over double-page spreads. Captions provide descriptions of each tile, with some detailing interesting locations, trends or influential designers. Interspersed in this invaluable sourcebook, are tiles shown in situ around the world and at different periods in their remarkable history. This book is a dazzling mosaic, with colours and patterns that will uplift and inspire.

Combining great book design with the inimitable expertise of a master tattoo artist, The Graphic Art of Tattoo Lettering is the ultimate guide for all with an interest or involvement in tattoo art, typography and calligraphy, and graphic design.
Showcasing over 80 international artists who incorporate embroidery into their practice, this book provides a survey of embroidery in contemporary art, illustrating the huge range of ways in which the craft has been embraced as a form of creative expression. Some artists evoke a kind of nostalgia, rediscovering skills that have fallen from fashion or promoting the value of ancient handicrafts in an industrialized world of mass-production. Others push boundaries by using embroidery on photographs, poetic installations, embroidered reproductions of everyday objects, or by using it to tackle political, personal or transgressive themes. Threads is a captivating exploration of their creative journeys, their influences, the technical challenges they face and the message they wish to convey

Książka pokazuje dwa ważne zjawiska, obecne zawsze tam, gdzie pojawia sią próba włączania we wspólne działanie osób niepełnosprawnych. Są to samowykluczenie i samomarginalizacja. To one (jako następstwo wcześniejszych doświadczeń osób niepełnosprawnych) nie pozwalają im często na jakąkolwiek aktywność. Nie pozwalają uwierzyć w siebie, w innych, w życzliwość grupy. Ten aspekt zaprezentowanych w pracy wyników mówi bardzo dużo nie tylko o niepełnosprawnych mężczyznach, uczestnikach badań, ale także o nas samych pozbawionych pokory i narracyjnej wyobraźni. Książka Macieja Jabłońskiego jest przykładem pedagogicznych badań zaangażowanych. Znakomicie ugruntowana teoretyczne, przywołująca najnowsze, interdyscyplinarne teorie jakości życia stawia prawdziwie ważne pytania badawcze.
This is the first revision book to be published specifically for candidates sitting the FRCS(Urol) examination, which tests the required standard of a recognised Urology specialist. It provides a selection of common clinical scenarios together with a guide to answering the FRCS(Urol) questions. Each chapter is written by Consultant Urological Surgeons or Senior Urology Trainees who have already been successful in passing the examination. This second edition responds to continual changes in practice:
The chapters on urological cancers including prostate cancer, bladder cancer and renal cancer have important updates due to emergence of new evidence and changes in NICE, EAU and AUA guidelines.
Substantial revisions to other sections such as paediatric urology, female urology, urinary stone disease, benign prostatic hyperplasia and uro-technology to meet standards of current best practice.

Zapowiedzi możliwych zmian w przepisach regulujących dopuszczalność aborcji w Polsce, w tym przepisów karnych dotyczących przerywania ciąży wbrew przepisom ustawy, wywołały bardzo duże poruszenie w społeczeństwie, w dużej mierze właśnie ze względu na projektowane zmiany w Kodeksie karnym z 1997 r. Z tego powodu zasadne jest bliższe zbadanie i poznanie powiązań między prawem karnym a ochroną zdrowia i życia ciężarnej kobiety oraz dziecka poczętego, w tym także odpowiedzialności karnej lekarzy za błędy medyczne w czasie ciąży i porodu.
Punktem wyjścia do rozważań są konstytucyjne i międzynarodowe standardy ochrony życia oraz ich wpływ na kształt przepisów w Kodeksie karnym. Należy zastanowić się nad prawidłowością i zasadnością obecnie obowiązujących regulacji, a w szczególności określić, czy zapewniają one prawidłową ochronę życia i zdrowia ciężarnej kobiety oraz poczętego dziecka.
In 1929, in the blue-collar city of Portsmouth, Ohio, a company built a swimming pool the size of a football field; named Dreamland, it became the vital center of the community. Now, addiction has devastated Portsmouth, as it has hundreds of small rural towns and suburbs across America--addiction like no other the country has ever faced. How that happened is the riveting story of Dreamland.
With a great reporter's narrative skill and the storytelling ability of a novelist, acclaimed journalist Sam Quinones weaves together two classic tales of capitalism run amok whose unintentional collision has been catastrophic. The unfettered prescribing of pain medications during the 1990s reached its peak in Purdue Pharma's campaign to market OxyContin, its new, expensive--extremely addictive--miracle painkiller. Meanwhile, a massive influx of black tar heroin--cheap, potent, and originating from one small county on Mexico's west coast, independent of any drug cartel--assaulted small town and mid-sized cities across the country, driven by a brilliant, almost unbeatable marketing and distribution system. Together these phenomena continue to lay waste to communities from Tennessee to Oregon, Indiana to New Mexico.
Introducing a memorable cast of characters--pharma pioneers, young Mexican entrepreneurs, narcotics investigators, survivors, and parents--Quinones shows how these tales fit together. Dreamland is a revelatory account of the corrosive threat facing America and its heartland.
