You Never Forget Your First: Ballplayers Recall Their Big League Debuts - PDF
نویسندگان: Josh Lewin خلاصه: Having already penned Getting in the Game, his inside scoop on the mayhem within baseball's winter meetings, Josh Lewin once again gives baseball fans a window into the big leagues. By interviewing big league ballplayers about their first day in the majors, Lewin creates fascinating mini-biographies of the players, highlighting the personalities hidden behind the on-field accomplishments. He lets the players recount their own memories of how they made it to the big leagues.In You Never Forget Your First, Lewin shares the stories of players great and less so. Tony Gwynn recalls singling in his first at bat and finding Pete Rose waiting for him at first base with a wink and a warning: "Don't break my record all at once, kid." Bob Brenly heard of his call-up on the car radio while on a family trip to the Grand Canyon. He then stood helplessly in the middle of the Arizona desert after his transmission gave out, trying to convince passersby he was a ballplayer heading to the big leagues and needed a lift to the airport. Duane Kuiper witnessed a fight both on the field and in his own clubhouse his first day in Cleveland. Greg Maddux recalls being stuck at the Chicago River drawbridge, convinced he'd never make it to Wrigley Field in time for his debut.Lewin interviews modern star players such as A-Rod, Barry Bonds, and Manny Ramirez, as well as Hall of Famers such as Jim Palmer, Don Sutton, and George Brett. More than 100 popular baseball players are profiled, complete with the box scores of their big league debuts.
Breaking the Slump: How Great Players Survived Their Darkest Moments in Golf--and What You Can Learn from Them - PDF
Breaking the Slump: How Great Players Survived Their Darkest Moments in Golf--and What You Can Learn from Them - PDF
نویسندگان: Jimmy Roberts خلاصه: The nearly 37 million people in the United States who play golf probably all have one thing in common: At some point they have contemplated giving up the game because they were frustrated with the way they were playing. When those blissful moments of precise drives and perfect putts disappear, when the ball seems to have a mind of its own, and when well-grooved swings become totally unhinged, we find ourselves in that panicked state known as a "slump." When Jimmy Roberts, the award-winning reporter and writer, entered his own period of frustration with the game, he decided to ask some of the most famous golfers and successful people in the world for advice. Here, for the first time, are the stories and recollections of eighteen veteran players whose wisdom is both practical and philosophical. Some concentrate on technique (when Phil Mickelson is dissatisfied with the way he's driving the ball, he practices bunker shots to reinforce the most important element of the tee shot—rhythm). Others focus on mental adjustments (Davis Love III remembers his late father's essential advice when he's frustrated: Try less hard). With stories from greats Jack Nicklaus, Arnold Palmer, Johnny Miller, Dottie Pepper, Greg Norman, George Herbert Walker Bush, Paul Azinger, and many others, this is an emotional and spiritual first aid kit for anyone who plays the game and even those who don't. As the 41st president says, the way we handle adversities in golf can provide a template for how to handle the challenges in life: Golf lessons can sometimes be life lessons too. There may not be a universal cure-all, but there are many ways to recover from a debilitating slump.

Principles of Tissue Engineering Fifth Edition - Original PDF
Principles of Tissue Engineering Fifth Edition - Original PDF
نویسندگان: Robert Lanza, Robert Langer, Joseph Vacanti, Anthony Atala خلاصه: Now in its fifth edition, Principles of Tissue Engineering has been the definite resource in the field of tissue engineering for more than a decade. The fifth edition provides an update on this rapidly progressing field, combining the prerequisites for a general understanding of tissue growth and development, the tools and theoretical information needed to design tissues and organs, as well as a presentation by the world’s experts of what is currently known about each specific organ system. As in previous editions, this book creates a comprehensive work that strikes a balance among the diversity of subjects that are related to tissue engineering, including biology, chemistry, material science, and engineering, among others, while also emphasizing those research areas that are likely to be of clinical value in the future. This edition includes greatly expanded focus on stem cells, including induced pluripotent stem (iPS) cells, stem cell niches, and blood components from stem cells. This research has already produced applications in disease modeling, toxicity testing, drug development, and clinical therapies. This up-to-date coverage of stem cell biology and the application of tissue-engineering techniques for food production – is complemented by a series of new and updated chapters on recent clinical experience in applying tissue engineering, as well as a new section on the emerging technologies in the field.
Institutions and Economic Development - Original PDF
Institutions and Economic Development - Original PDF
نویسندگان: Bryan Cheang · Tom G. Palmer خلاصه: Arguably, the most important question in Economics and probably in social sci- ence is ‘why are some nations rich, and others poor?’ Not only is this an interesting theoretical question, it has practical relevance to human living. According to the World Bank, 9.4% of the global population are still living below the poverty line of US$1.90-a-day (The World Bank, 2020). Understanding the factors that con- tribute to a nation’s economic development will help clarify the path forward for development policymaking. This Companion will explore the phenomenon of economic development and review the leading theories explaining why it is present in some nations and absent in others. Such a task will necessarily require one to be selective, as development studies is a complex field involving various disciplines with no easy answers. Even today, development economists debate the causes of development and how to foster it in poor nations, if at all possible. Before diving into development theories, however, this chapter will first define some basic concepts and establish general facts. The subsequent sections will pin down the concept of ‘economic development’ and provide factual information about changes in living standards over time. We show that a real and sustained improvement in living standards has indeed occurred—called the ‘Great Enrich- ment’ which started in the late eighteenth century onwards. Accordingly, we explore the deep determinants of this development and focus on the rules and values in society which have facilitated this improvement in living standard
Messverfahren und Klassifikationen in der muskuloskelettalen Radiologie - Original PDF
Messverfahren und Klassifikationen in der muskuloskelettalen Radiologie - Original PDF
نویسندگان: Simone Waldt Matthias Eiber Klaus Wörtler خلاصه: Vorwort „Die besten Bücher sind die, von denen jeder Leser meint, er hätte sie selbst machen können.“ Blaise Pascal, französischer Mathematiker, Physiker und Philosoph (1623–1662) In kaum einer Subdisziplin der klinischen Medizin findet man wohl eine solch verwirrende Vielzahl von Messver- fahren und Klassifikationssystemen wie in der orthopädi- schen Diagnostik. Ganz sicher aber sind es genug, um als Radiologe, Orthopäde oder Unfallchirurg nicht immer alle Methoden und Referenzwerte „im Kopf“ haben zu können. Dieses Problem ist, wie auch die Idee zu diesem Buch, nicht neu. Als ich während meiner Ausbildung an der Universität Münster begann, mich mit der orthopädischen Radiologie zu beschäftigen, existierte an unserem radiologischen Skelettarbeitsplatz als wichtiges Utensil ein Aktenordner, der als Loseblattsammlung Kopien aus unterschiedlichs- ten Lehrbüchern und Zeitschriften enthielt. Die von mei- nen Vorgängern zusammengetragenen Blätter fassten in ungeordneter Folge wichtige Messungen und Klassifika- tionen zusammen, die zwar mehr oder weniger häufig eingesetzt wurden, aber offensichtlich nur schwer in das Langzeitgedächtnis des jeweiligen Befunders zu überfüh- ren waren. Das im Laufe der Jahre durch Gebrauchsspuren recht unansehnlich gewordene Lehrwerk wurde von mei- nen damaligen Kollegen und mir schlicht der „Ordner“ genannt, als unverzichtbares Hilfsmittel angesehen, arg- wöhnisch gehütet und ständig um weitere Seiten und An- merkungen ergänzt. Eine ganz ähnliche Sammlung, allerdings in elektroni- scher Form, wurde später an der Technischen Universität München von Assistenzärzten des Skelettarbeitplatzes er- stellt. Diese erreichte zwar nach meinem persönlichen Empfinden nie den Charme des alten „Ordners“, hatte je- doch bezüglich Modernität, Ordnung und Verfügbarkeit und letztlich auch unter hygienischen Gesichtspunkten Vorteile. Außerdem stellt sie den direkten Vorläufer dieses Buches dar. In diesem Buch werden verschiedenste Messverfahren und Klassifikationssysteme aus allen Bereichen der mus- kuloskelettalen Radiologie mit Ausnahme der Frakturleh- re (damit ließe sich ein weiteres Buch füllen) dargestellt, ohne Anspruch auf Vollständigkeit zu erheben. Die Auto- ren haben versucht, nach Möglichkeit auf die Originalpu- blikationen zurückzugreifen, um Fehler durch inkorrekte „Überlieferung“ gebräuchlicher Methoden zu vermeiden. Neben der Erläuterung von Messverfahren und Klassifika- tionskriterien wurde der Versuch unternommen, den tat- sächlichen praktischen Stellenwert der einzelnen Metho- den zu beleuchten. Weitgehend veraltete Verfahren und Systeme wurden gar nicht oder nur mit entsprechenden Anmerkungen in die Sammlung aufgenommen.
Darwin: Portrait of a Genius by Paul Johnson - Epub + Converted PDF
Darwin: Portrait of a Genius by Paul Johnson - Epub + Converted PDF
نویسندگان: Paul Johnson خلاصه: All his life, Charles Darwin believed that inheritance was much more important in shaping a man or woman than education or environment. Nature rather than nurture was formative, in his view. Though he knew nothing of the science of genetics, and never used the word gene, which is first recorded in English in 1911, more than a quarter- century after his death, he is a classic case of genetic inheritance. Indeed, two of his grandparents and his father can reasonably be classified as geniuses. His paternal grandfather, Erasmus Darwin (1731–1802) came from an old family of modest landowners. After Cambridge, he trained as a doctor in Edinburgh, and then practiced in Litchfield, Dr. Johnson’s town (they did not get on). He was successful and had many patients, easily earning £1,000 a year, a handsome income then. News of his skill reached the ears of George III, who invited him to come to London as the royal doctor. But Dr. Darwin declined. The Hanoverian royals were slow at paying their doctors. In any case, Darwin was happy as he was, combining a busy provincial practice with poetry and science. The symbol of this dualism was his coach, which he designed himself. It was fitted up with a writing desk, a skylight, and a portion of his library, so that he could carry on his intellectual pursuits while going on his daily round of professional calls.

Markets in Early Medieval Europe: Trading and 'Productive' Sites, 650 - 850 - Original PDF
Markets in Early Medieval Europe: Trading and 'Productive' Sites, 650 - 850 - Original PDF
نویسندگان: Katharina Ulmschneider; Tim Pestell خلاصه: Major sites such as Hamwic and Dorestad typically dominate any discussion of early medieval trade and emporia - this study is altogether atypical in many ways. Comprising nineteen papers taken from a conference held at Worcester College, Oxford in 2000, the focus here is very much on the smaller, more rural trading centres and inland markets of Northern Europe. The contributors reflect very different approaches to the material, including studies that examine up-to-date historical, archaeological and numismatic evidence from Britain, Denmark, the Netherlands, Norway and Sweden dating from the 7th to 9th century. The authors consider the rather controversial use of metal-detecting in identifying and defining new sites and patterns of interaction and exchange, highlighting its positive contribution. Contributors include Mark Blackburn, David Griffiths, Lars Jorgensen, Michael Metcalf, Julian D Richards, Peter Sawyer and Astrid Tummuscheit.
