Under några intensiva veckor i mitten på 1990-talet arbetade Ingrid Segerstedt Wiberg och Anette Carlsson med att göra ett urval av Ingrids tidningsartiklar för att ge ut dem i bokform. Artiklarna sträcker sig över nästan hela 1900-talet. Den första skrevs 1933, när Hitler tagit makten i Tyskland och den sista 1997 under Balkankrigen, när flyktingdebatten var intensiv i Sverige. Den så kallade Lasermannen sköt mot invandrare och främlingsfientliga grupperingar började få inflytande. Ingrid var hela livet en flitig journalist och arbetade för flera tidningar och tidskrifter, men var i huvudsak knuten till Göteborgs-Posten. Där var hon också en tid chef för ledarredaktionen. Hon engagerade sig även politiskt och satt några år under 1960-talet i riksdagen för dåvarande Folkpartiet. Därifrån skrev hon under signatur krönikor i GP där hon gisslade politiska motståndare och ibland det politiska systemet. Hon gick då och då emot sitt eget parti, bland annat i kärnvapenfrågan. Både från sin riksdagsplats och som journalist engagerade hon sig hårt i fredsfrågor och mot kärnvapen och kapprustning. Hon startade IKFF, Internationella Kvinnoförbundet För Fred och Frihet i Sverige och det svenska FN-förbundet. Hennes far var den legendariske huvudredaktören för Göteborgs Handels- och Sjöfartstidning, Torgny Segerstedt, vars skarpa kritik mot Hitler och nazismen gav honom både beundrare och bittra, inflytelserika fiender. Dottern Ingrid gick tydligt i hans fotspår och fick vara verksam under mycket lång tid, närmare 70 år. De många artiklarna samlade i bokform 1996 och -97 blev ett stycke nutidshistoria fångad av en vetgirig journalist som aldrig lät sig stoppas trots hot och trakasserier. Ständigt i händelsernas centrum i Sverige men också ute i världen. Engagerad, stridbar och orädd. En stark röst för demokrati, yttrandefrihet och alla människors lika värde. Mot rasism, förföljelse av oliktänkande och maktmissbruk. Ingrid kommenterar själv artiklarna, hur de togs emot och hur samhället såg ut just då. Ingrid var verksam nästan in i det sista. Hon gick bort en månad före sin 99-årsdag 2011. Den nu aktuella boken är en uppdaterad och starkt koncentrerad version av de båda första volymerna. Redaktören, Anette Carlsson, är journalist och tv-producent. Anställd 1969-2000 på Sveriges Television och god vän till Ingrid under hennes sista 20 år i livet. Efter pensioneringen är Anette verksam som frilansande journalist, författare och föredragshållare. 2010 publicerade hon en licentiatavhandling vid Högskolan i Jönköping om etermediernas centralisering i Sverige.

Trots allt prat om sekularisering är predikan ännu den i särklass vanligaste formen av offentligt tal i vårt land. Predikanter träder bokstavligen upp i tid och otid (2 Tim. 4:2), liksom de har gjort genom hela kyrkans historia. De sex artiklarna i denna årsbok handlar om predikan både historiskt ( i tid ) och principiellt ( i otid ). Katarina Hallqvist och Erik Claeson har hämtat upp texter ur den stora skatt av predikningar som finns bevarad från det medeltida birgittinklostret i Vadstena. Hallqvist visar hur bröderna i klostret försökte vägleda sina åhörare på fullkomnandets väg , Claeson hur de anpassade sig till olika åhörargrup- per. I en annan historisk studie undersöker Sivert Angel vad senmedeltidens och 1500-talets predikan i Norden har att säga om uppståndelsekroppen och påvisar överraskande förändringar och förskjutningar över tid. Frida Mannerfelt slår en bro mellan då och nu genom ett fågelperspektiv på innehållet i svenska läroböcker om predikan från 1903 till i dag. Clara Nystrand utforskar hur sekulariseringen påverkar nutida predikan genom att granska vad präster i Skåne säger om Gud. Carina Sundberg, slutligen, förmedlar tankar från Sydafrika och USA om korsets dårskap och predikantens uppgift: Finns det möjligen en dårskapens hermeneutik ? Årsboken innehåller även recensioner av ett tjugotal nya publikationer om gudstjänst, predikan, kyrkokonst och kyrkomusik samt notiser om böcker att notera.

Tidens gång ramar in och strukturerar våra liv – utan tidsuppfattning inget subjekt. Samtidigt hävdar psykoanalysen att det omedvetna präglas av tidlöshet, kanhända en form av otid? Det nya numret är sprängfyllt av texter om vår relation till tid, om vår svårighet att förstå oss på den och våra försök att undkomma den. Här finns Heideggers klassiska text ”Världsbildens tid” kommenterad av Hans Ruin, Pablo Lerner skriver om Freud, Rolland och ”den oceaniska känslan” och John Swedenmark om antikens tre tidsbegrepp Chronos, Kairos och Aion. Klassisk psykoanalys finns representerad i översättningar av Jean Laplanche, André Green och ett urval ur Four Discussions with Wilfred Bion från 1978. De samtida psykoanalytikerna Maria Yassa och Gunnar Berggren bidrar med klinisk förankring. Nina Weibull bjuder in till konstnären Carl Boutard och hans Degrowth, medan den tyske professorn i teoretisk fysik Gernot Münster för in naturvetenskapen, kommenterad av Charlotta Björklind. Poeter i numret är Hanna Rajs med nyskrivna dikter och George Oppen i översättning av Peter Thörneby, Marie Silkeberg och Gabriel Itkes-Sznap.

Among the varied methods of diagnosis in vascular medicine, duplex ultrasonography remains the primary modality, and continues to evolve as an accurate, reproducible, and inexpensive method to diagnose and follow patients with arterial and venous disorders. Duplex ultrasonography also remains the best diagnostic technique for extracranial carotid artery disease. Most atherosclerotic disease is limited to the origin and proximal internal carotid artery, and at this location, the vessel is commonly straight. This CD-ROM advances the field of multimedia education, presenting every aspect of carotid duplex ultrasonography in this unique format, including anatomy and physiology, the basics of ultrasound, and the performance of carotid duplex scanning. Following this, several real-life cases are presented, and the user is instructed to answer questions, such as which probe to use, what the study reveals, etc. All aspects of duplex scanning, including non-atherosclerotic carotid disorders (fibromuscular dysplasia, spontaneous dissection, etc) and carotid stent-supported angioplasty, are reviewed in-depth.System Requirements:IBM CompatiblePentium 200 Mhz32 MB RAMColour display 640 x 4808X CD-ROMMacintoshPower PC or G332 MB RAMColour display 640 x 4808X CD-ROMQuicktime 3 installer is included

Carotid Angioplasty and Stenting (CAS) is a new approach to treat a carotid stenosis.  This new book provides interventional cardiologists, both as beginners or fully experienced, with a reference on all aspects of angioplasty and stenting of the carotid and supra-aortic trunks. Focusing on both the entire range of angioplasty and stenting treatment options for the surgeon treating patients on the operating table, and the range of radiological techniques used for the cardiologist to diagnose carotid artery stenosis (CAS) and associated conditions, this important book describes the best indications, the different techniques, the results, and also the limitations of CAS based on randomized studies and particularly the last published data (CREST study).Suitable for both novice and experienced interventionalists, it also addresses diagnosis of a carotid stenosis and complications from CAS and how to manage them.

Ever since its discovery in 1742 the carotid body has remained an organ of mystery. Originally described as a ganglion, it was subsequently regarded as a gland, chromaffin paraganglion and non-chromaffin paraganglion. In 1928 it was shown to be a chemoreceptor with close associations with the function of baroreception in the adjacent carotid sinus and perhaps within its own substance. These discoveries led physiologists to embark on a series of elegant experimental studies on a number of animal species which have, however, so far failed to identify the transducer for detection of changes in tension of arterial blood gases or the mechanism of chemor­ eception. Pathologists on the other hand have largely ignored the carotid body, restricting their interest to its tumour, the chemodectoma. A remarkable disparity in knowledge of the organ has resulted, with most information being available on the physiology of chemoreceptor tissue in laboratory animals. In contrast, there has been sparse interest and awareness of the pathology in man of this nodule of tissue lying in the carotid bifurcation whose functional activity is suggested by the high blood flow it receives, and its rich content of biogenic amines and a wide variety of peptides. This book is an attempt to redress this unsatisfactory situation. During the last few years our understanding of the detailed histology and ultrastructure of the human carotid body has improved.

Ultrasound and Carotid Bifurcation Atherosclerosis provides a comprehensive overview of the most recent advancements in instrumentation, imaging techniques including the use of contrast enhancement agents, plaque image analysis and its automation, elastography and plaque motion analysis;

Over the past three decades, carotid artery stenting has evolved to become a promising and viable alternative to carotid endarterectomy, especially for patients deemed to have high surgical risks.

This handbook supplements hands-on training in interventional cardiology with a specific focus on percutaneous intervention in patients with extracranial carotid artery stenosis. It carries reviews of landmark studies supporting carotid endarectomy and stenting and is a comprehensive guide to this exciting and burgeoning field.

Over the past three decades, carotid artery stenting has evolved to become a promising and viable alternative to carotid endarterectomy, especially for patients deemed to have high surgical risks. In Carotid Artery Stenting: The Basics, Jacqueline Saw and a panel of international experts on carotid artery stenting discuss in depth the details of all contemporary aspects of carotid stenting, while reviewing supporting studies, guidelines, technical perspectives, and peri-procedural management. This textbook serves as a learning resource on the multifaceted management of patients with carotid artery stenosis, with the key focus on extracranial carotid artery stenting. Additional sections detail the specifics of setting up and maintaining a laboratory and discuss the preparation of the carotid artery stenting procedure from both the patient and operator’s perspective. Authoritative and highly practical, Carotid Artery Stenting: The Basics is an accessible guide and valuable resource for today’s cardiologists, radiologists, and vascular surgeons.

This well-illustrated text reviews the current state of knowledge with regard to the various anatomic and physiologic methods available to identify asymptomatic patients who are at high risk to develop a future stroke. Asymptomatic Carotid Artery Stenosis is particularly targeted towards physicians involved in clinical decision making regarding revascularization of patients with asymptomatic carotid stenosis. Furthermore, the editors and contributors' hopes and objectives are to stimulate the medical community into subjecting these methodologies to rigorous prospective clinical trials to redefine standards of care for these patients.

In the management of vascular disease, there has been an inexorable drive towards less invasive endovascular treatments. This has substantially altered the attitudes of patients, clinicians and health care providers.Endovascular treatment of carotid stenosis for stroke is no exception. Several trials are running concurrently; these are comparing carotid endarterectomy (CEA) with the less invasive alternative, carotid stenting (CAS). There is already evidence that CAS may be preferable in certain patient populations i.e. those deemed to be at high surgical risk. Furthermore both procedures have comparable benefits in terms of survival free of ipsilateral stroke between three to five years post-procedure.State-of-the-art CAS (with regards use of all available technical refinements) is all but five years old. There is considerable interest from clinicians from a variety of clinical backgrounds and from industry in this technique and, therefore, scope for a contemporary practical guide.
