Despite the widespread popularity of body modification, this study is the first to provide a comparative analysis of Catholic and Orthodox perspectives on tattoos and piercings.

By examining historical, doctrinal, and ethical debates, the book explores scriptural interpretations, official Church teachings, and theological arguments. It also considers cultural and pastoral dimensions, shedding light on a controversial yet relevant issue in contemporary Christianity. As a comparative study, it not only deepens the understanding of Catholic and Orthodox traditions but also fosters interfaith and intercultural dialogue, promoting communication and mutual respect. By bridging historical perspectives with modern practice, this research offers valuable insights for theologians, scholars, and readers interested in an intersectional study of faith, identity, and personal expression.

Rebecca Haw Allensworth pries open the inner workings of professional licensing boards, showing how they erect arbitrary barriers to work, corruptly influence markets for routine services such as hairdressing, and tolerate bad actors in high-stakes arenas like medicine and law. The Licensing Racket is a call for reform and, where needed, abolition.

Biotechnology: The Technological Applications of Genetics and Genomics, Third Edition, approaches modern biotechnology from a molecular basis, discussing how the fields of genetics, molecular biology, microbiology, and biochemistry are merging their respective discoveries into the expanding applied field of biotechnology. Each chapter starts with basic concepts that develop into more specific and detailed applications, providing readers with a good image of possibilities and current limitations in the field and future research directions. This new edition has been fully revised and updated to include research advances, and has new chapters on artificial intelligence, genome editing, precision and personalized medicine, and more. This book is an invaluable resource to anyone interested in understanding what molecular biotechnology is as a scientific discipline, how research in this area is conducted, and how this technology may impact the future.

The Technological Applications of Genetics and Genomics

Biotechnology

War is an engine of innovation. It has motivated extraordinary achievements in medicine and science, many of which have generated benefits far beyond the battlefield. These advancements, however, have come at great cost. Countless individuals have been exposed to hazardous research, often without their knowledge or consent. Cities, towns, and rural areas have been used as test sites for atomic, chemical, and biological warfare, causing widespread environmental damage and a myriad of health ailments in generations of Americans. Health professionals have been intimately involved in enhanced interrogation programs, while warfighters face an emerging scenario where biomedical enhancements may become essential elements of military missions. Laws and ethical codes have been rewritten to facilitate these endeavors and shield wrongful conduct from the public. Due to secrecy mandates, governmental immunities, and lackluster healthcare, many individuals harmed by these actions have been left without legal remedies or adequate means to address their injuries. America's Military Biomedical Complex shows how the drive for scientific and military superiority has shifted the moral compass of government and society, detailing scores of examples where untoward conduct has been rationalized as necessary to promote national security and achieve military goals. The book traces the fascinating story of how laws and ethical codes have co-evolved with the nation's military science pursuits, dating back to the founding of America. Without passing retrospective judgment, it explores the moral calculus conducted by decision-makers at key moments in military science. This analysis reveals that officials were keenly aware of ethical dilemmas, but nonetheless chose to engage in risky (and sometimes unlawful) activities to further pressing national security goals. Coupled with this historical reflection, America's Military Biomedical Complex recommends policies that harmonize contemporary national security concerns with fundamental principles of justice and human dignity. It introduces the concept of jus in praeparatione bellum (justice in war preparations) a doctrine of restraint and responsibility that aims to elucidate just and unjust means of preparing for war.

Law, Ethics, and the Drive for Scientific Innovation

America's Military Biomedical Complex

This unique atlas with over 4000 images opens up new dimensions in slit lamp examination and documentation. In his "life's work", the author shows how the slit lamp can be used to depict almost the entire field of ophthalmology - from the eyelids and anterior segment to the fundus and portrayal of eye motility. This results in the first book in ophthalmology that covers the entire subject with just one device.


Traditional slit lamp examination techniques are combined with the innovative documentation of ophthalmic findings using videography. Access to these videos is provided in the book. They can be viewed via the More Media app.


Innovations:


 Purkinje reflexes functioning as "landmarks" for observing changes in the eye's anterior segment-whether for the early detection of keratoconus or when assessing intraocular lenses

 The creation of fundus overviews, some of which extending to the periphery, using just the slit lamp and image processing programs

 Documentation of objects at a great distance by holding a minus lens in front of the objective lens of the slit lamp to make it less "short-sighted". This is useful to visualize squint or to take a picture of the whole face.





Inside the book:


 Methods section on technology

 Imaging with fundus-, minus- and without additional lenses

 Image documentation with patient-histories of up to 20 years

 780 cases, including 460 follow-ups

Videographic Imaging

Lehrbuch für die Orthoptik

A bottom-up investigation of the broken system of professional licensing, affecting everyone from hairdressers and morticians to doctors, lawyers, real estate agents, and those who rely on their services. Millions of Americans are required to have a license to do their jobs, giving the boards responsible for licensure enormous power. In theory, licensing boards maintain standards of hygiene, skill, and ethics, but their decisions can be maddeningly arbitrary, creating unnecessary barriers to work. And where boards could actually curb harms and ensure professionalism, their performance is disappointing. When Rebecca Haw Allensworth began attending board meetings, she discovered a thicket of self-dealing and ineptitude. The Licensing Racket goes behind the scenes to show how boards protect insiders from competition and bad actors from discipline. Even where there is the will to investigate complaints, boards lack the resources to do so. Consequences range from the banal--a hairdresser prevented from working--to the shocking, with medical licensing boards bearing considerable blame for the opioid crisis and for staffing shortages during COVID. Unethical lawyers, meanwhile, are rarely stripped of licenses. If licensing is a pointless obstacle to employment in many arenas, in others it is as important as it is ineffective. Allensworth argues for abolition where appropriate and outlines an agenda for reform where it is most needed.
