End-of-life care, or hospice, exists in places where words fail and time feels suspended. Caretakers and loved ones arrive in vulnerability, needing space to offer connection and presence in ways that restore a sense of agency amid the unpredictability of dying. Designing Compassion in Hospice Care shows that, in this often spiritual experience, design is not decoration or efficiency, but an ethical act that upholds an individual's dignity and those who support them. This is not simply a guide to creating rooms; it is a call to cultivate moments where grief is acknowledged, meaning is shared, and silence is honored.Drawing from nearly two decades in nursing and hospice leadership, the book explores how intentional design nurtures comfort and connection for patients and families at the end of life. Central to this work is "The Quiet Room," both a physical space and a philosophy of care. It represents a place where stillness, respect, and presence are prioritized: a space for patients to rest, families to gather, and caregivers to offer empathetic support. Through reflective stories, practical guidance, and insights from hospice practice, the book shows how lighting, color, sound, and layout shape emotional safety and personal expression.Blending human-centered design with the inner work of compassion, this work invites readers to see hospice environments as extensions of care with spaces that ease suffering, and create profound moments of connection at the end of life.

This book focuses on human anatomy and medicine and specifically on both muscular and skeletal birth defects in humans with trisomy. Moreover, this book also deals with Down syndrome, which is one of the most studied human syndromes and, due to its high incidence and the fact that individuals with this syndrome often live until adulthood, is of special interest to the scientific and medical community.This new line of inquiry is addressed to a wide audience, including medical researchers, physicians, surgeons, medical and dental students, pathologists, and pediatricians, among others, while also being of interest to developmental and evolutionary biologists, anatomists, functional morphologists, and zoologists.

The book also details Russia’s attempt to abort the Ukrainian revolution through threats, economic pressure, lies, and intimidation. When all of that failed, the Kremlin exacted revenge by annexing Ukraine’s territory of Crimea and fomenting and sustaining a hybrid war in eastern Ukraine that has killed more than 13,000 people and continues to this day.Ukraine’s Revolt, Russia’s Revenge is based on the author’s own observations and the multitude of reports of his Embassy colleagues who were eyewitnesses to a crucial event in contemporary history.

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.
