Neurosurgical Operative Atlas: Neuro-Oncology

Dava Sobel, acclaimed and bestselling author of Longitude,chronicles the life and work of the most famous woman in the history of science- and the untold story of the young women who trained in her laboratory.'A fresh and feminist study of the pioneering Nobel laureate reveals her impact on the women she mentored and set on the path to prominence' Observer'It is a novel lens through which to view Curie's story, and Sobel paints her tale with characteristic deftness and eloquence' Financial TimesFor decades Marie Curie was the only woman in the room at international scientific gatherings, and despite constant illness she travelled far and wide to share the secrets of radioactivity, a term she coined. She is still the only person to win a Nobel Prize in two scientific fields.Her ingenuity extended far beyond the laboratory walls; grieving the death of her husband, Pierre, she took his place as professor of physics at the Sorbonne, devotedly raised two daughters, drove a van she outfitted with X-ray equipment to the front lines of World War I, befriended Albert Einstein and inspired generations of young women to pursue science as a way of life.Approaching Marie Curie from a unique angle, Sobel navigates her remarkable discoveries and fame alongside the women who became her legacy - from Norway's Ellen Gleditsch and France's Marguerite Perry, who discovered the element francium, to her own daughter, Irene, a Nobel Prize winner in her own right. The Elements of Marie Curiedeftly illuminates the trailblazing life and enduring influence of one of the most consequential figures of our time.'A lucid, literate biography, celebrating a scientific exemplar who, for all her fame, deserves to be better known'Kirkus'As expected from a Pulitzer Prize finalist, Sobel writes beautifully and with clarity about the science that Curie specialised in, making clear the achievements that her lab brought about' Daily Mail'This is an essential read, capturing both [Curie's] genius and her legacy' New Scientist'Sobel's book is a luminous and illuminating contribution to the cause' Literary Review

The Elements of Marie Curie

Time wants you dead. Not just you, but your friends, family, pets - everyone you've ever met...

'A beautifully written book about life and death: busts myths, explores the stories of science and history, and ultimately is rich and uplifting.' Dr Adam Rutherford

With over 17,000 known diseases affecting humans, and countless poisons, carcinogens and toxins in our environment, it's a miracle that our bodies manage to keep us alive. And that is, of course, if they don't betray us themselves, whether through cancers or autoimmune conditions.

Biomedical researcher Professor John Tregoning tells the unlikely story of how, against all odds, we manage to stay alive. Taking an organ-by-organ tour of the human body, Tregoning embarks on his own experimental quest, testing 'life-extending' diets and exercise regimes to separate fact from fad. Exploring the multitude of ways our bodies can kill us, from inherited genetic conditions, through heart attacks, arrythmias and angina, onto the delicate workings of the brain, Live Forever?&nbsp;offers compelling insight into how our bodies work, how we can best look after them - and ultimately live longer, healthier lives.

***

'I heartily recommend this deep dive into wellness... It turns out that none of us are getting out of here alive, but John has bravely put his mind and body on the line to discover the secrets of staying healthy and happy as we get older. A funny, fascinating and educative book.' Ben Willbond, co-creator of Ghosts

'The idea that a book about death and dying could be a delightful read seems ridiculous, and yet John Tregoning has pulled off this trick with humour, flair and elegance.' Nessa Carey, author of The Epigenetics Revolution

'An enjoyable and entertaining mixture of scientific facts about ageing and completely unscientific self-experimentation... recognizing that although none of us will live forever, there are ways we can improve our chances of living well while we are still around.' Dame Sarah Gilbert

Mechanisms, Targets, and Therapeutics

Molecular Biology of Cancer

The dogma that brain function relied on the cortex has dominated clinical neurology, neurosurgery and psychiatry for the last 100 years. Since the start of the 2000s, it has become evident that brain function is orchestrated as a network through white matter connections. This framework provides an understanding of brain function and dysfunction, and has radically changed how neurosurgical resections are performed. There is currently no manual for clinicians to visualize this functional anatomy in a fast, easy and user-friendly way. This is particularly important for senior clinicians who may have an understanding of cortical anatomy but may struggle with newly described white matter connections as they may now be visualized with MRI, and also for trainees who are learning the subject of applied neuro-anatomy. With this book, we aim to bridge this gap.


 


In 1995 Jackson and Duncan produced "MRI Neuroanatomy: a new angle on the brain" using the best clinical MRI available at the time and did not demonstrate white matter tracts. This was very well received, and it is time now to produce an atlas that shows the 3D anatomy of gray and white matter to contemporary standards.


 


This atlas is based on a high-quality MRI of a healthy subject which resembles the type of imaging is regularly available to clinicians. It is structured in sections (cortical anatomy, subcortical anatomy, and network anatomy) that are intended to guide clinicians from the classical cortical paradigms into a network neuroscience perspective. The 2D orthogonal slices are organized in two orientations:


 


(A) following the plane of the anterior and posterior commissure, as has been traditionally used in stereotactic atlases


(B) following the plane of the hippocampus, as is commonly used in clinical epilepsy practice.


 


The first part shows the 3D anatomy of the cerebral hemisphere, deep nuclei, brainstem and cerebellum.


 


The second part shows the same brain cut in 2D orthogonal slices (axial, coronal, sagittal) with a raw T1-weighted image, accompanied by a labelled image showing the gross anatomy of the brain and grey matter structures and, also, the labelled white matter tracts in that slice. This is particularly relevant for neurosurgeons, who will be able to appreciate before planning a resection the relationship between each tract's trajectory and the gray matter. This will also benefit neurologists, enabling clarity as to how single lesions can cause multiple disconnection and impact on different functions and behaviours.


 


The third part demonstrates the 3D anatomy of the major white matter tracts in the brain, to indicate how distant lesions can impact the same function.
