Understanding Human Anatomy and Pathology An Evolutionary and Developmental Guide for Medical Students

Understanding Human Anatomy and Pathology An Evolutionary and Developmental Guide for Medical Students

Understanding Human Anatomy and Pathology: An Evolutionary and Developmental Guide for Medical Students provides medical students with a much easier and more comprehensive way to learn and understand human gross anatomy by combining state-of-the-art knowledge about human anatomy evolution development and pathology in one book. The book adds evolutionary pathological and developmental information in a way that reduces the difficulty and total time spent learning gross anatomy by making learning more logical and systematic. It also synthesizes data that would normally be available for students only by consulting several books at a time. Anatomical illustrations are carefully selected to follow the style of those seen in human anatomical atlases but are simpler in their overall configuration making them easier to understand without overwhelming students with visual information. The book‘s organization is also more versatile than most human anatomy texts so that students can refer to different sections according to their own learning styles. Because it is relatively short in length and easily transportable students can take this invaluable book anywhere and use it to understand most of the structures they need to learn for any gross anatomy course. | Understanding Human Anatomy and Pathology An Evolutionary and Developmental Guide for Medical Students

Game Feel A Game Designer's Guide to Virtual Sensation

Game Feel A Game Designer's Guide to Virtual Sensation

Game Feel exposes feel as a hidden language in game design that no one has fully articulated yet. The language could be compared to the building blocks of music (time signatures chord progressions verse) - no matter the instruments style or time period - these building blocks come into play. Feel and sensation are similar building blocks where game design is concerned. They create the meta-sensation of involvement with a game. The understanding of how game designers create feel and affect feel are only partially understood by most in the field and tends to be overlooked as a method or course of study yet a game's feel is central to a game's success. This book brings the subject of feel to light by consolidating existing theories into a cohesive book. The book covers topics like the role of sound ancillary indicators the importance of metaphor how people perceive things and a brief history of feel in games. The associated web site contains a playset with ready-made tools to design feel in games six key components to creating virtual sensation. There's a play palette too so the desiger can first experience the importance of that component by altering variables and feeling the results. The playset allows the reader to experience each of the sensations described in the book and then allows them to apply them to their own projects. Creating game feel without having to program essentially. The final version of the playset will have enough flexibility that the reader will be able to use it as a companion to the exercises in the book working through each one to create the feel described. | Game Feel A Game Designer's Guide to Virtual Sensation

Principles of Risk Analysis Decision Making Under Uncertainty

Principles of Risk Analysis Decision Making Under Uncertainty

In every decision problem there are things we know and things we do not know. Risk analysis science uses the best available evidence to assess what we know while it is carefully intentional in the way it addresses the importance of the things we do not know in the evaluation of decision choices and decision outcomes. The field of risk analysis science continues to expand and grow and the second edition of Principles of Risk Analysis: Decision Making Under Uncertainty responds to this evolution with several significant changes. The language has been updated and expanded throughout the text and the book features several new areas of expansion including five new chapters. The book’s simple and straightforward style—based on the author’s decades of experience as a risk analyst trainer and educator—strips away the mysterious aura that often accompanies risk analysis. Features: Details the tasks of risk management risk assessment and risk communication in a straightforward conceptual manner Provides sufficient detail to empower professionals in any discipline to become risk practitioners Expands the risk management emphasis with a new chapter to serve private industry and a growing public sector interest in the growing practice of enterprise risk management Describes dozens of quantitative and qualitative risk assessment tools in a new chapter Practical guidance and ideas for using risk science to improve decisions and their outcomes is found in a new chapter on decision making under uncertainty Practical methods for helping risk professionals to tell their risk story are the focus of a new chapter Features an expanded set of examples of the risk process that demonstrate the growing applications of risk analysis As before this book continues to appeal to professionals who want to learn and apply risk science in their own professions as well as students preparing for professional careers.
