**Selected for Doody’s Core Titles® 2024 in Pediatrics**A must-have reference for both general physicians and advanced practice providers, Fanaroff and Martin's Neonatal-Perinatal Medicine: Diseases of the Fetus and Infant provides trusted, time-tested guidance on the management and evidence-based treatment of problems in the mother, fetus, and neonate. The fully revised 12th Edition is an ideal resource for every stage of practice and remains the most comprehensive, multidisciplinary text in the field. Drs. Richard J. Martin and Avroy A. Fanaroff from Rainbow Babies and Children’s Hospital bring you up to date with everything from diagnosis and treatment selection through post-treatment strategies and management of complications-all with a dual focus on neonatology and perinatology, and all designed to help you improve the quality of life and long-term outcomes of your patients.Provides up-to-date, evidence-based content throughout, including state-of-the-art coverage of personalized medicine and geneticsContains new chapters on Big Data for the Smallest Patients: What we can learn from neonatal database research; Role of Umbilical Cord Management in Neonatal Resuscitation; Care of Periviable Micropremies: the Japanese perspective; Longer Term Respiratory Outcomes of Prematurity; and Perinatal Palliative CareFeatures extensive updates throughout, including blood and the hematopoietic system; social and economic contributors to neonatal outcome; fetal growth restriction; diagnostic imaging of the neonate; anesthesia in the neonate; postnatal bacterial infections; neonatal management of congenital heart disease; and retinopathy of prematurityIncludes over 600 detailed, full-color illustrations that depict disorders in the clinical setting and explain complex informationProvides indexing in both volumes that provides quick access to specific guidanceOffers a global perspective with an expanded number of international contributorsAn ideal resource for clinical practice as well as recommended reading for neonatology board review or maintenance of certificationAn eBook version is included with purchase. The eBook allows you to access all of the text, figures, and references, with the ability to search, customize your content, make notes and highlights, and have content read aloud

Thermal Systems Design Discover a project-based approach to thermal systems design In the newly revised Second Edition of Thermal Systems Design: Fundamentals and Projects, accomplished engineer and educator Dr. Richard J. Martin offers senior undergraduate and graduate students an insightful exposure to real-world design projects. The author delivers a brief review of the laws of thermodynamics, fluid mechanics, heat transfer, and combustion before moving on to a more expansive discussion of how to apply these fundamentals to design common thermal systems like boilers, combustion turbines, heat pumps, and refrigeration systems. The book includes design prompts for 14 real-world projects, teaching students and readers how to approach tasks like preparing Process Flow Diagrams and computing the thermodynamic details necessary to describe the states designated therein. Readers will learn to size pipes, ducts, and major equipment and to prepare Piping and Instrumentation Diagrams that contain the instruments, valves, and control loops needed for automatic functioning of the system. The Second Edition offers an updated look at the pedagogy of conservation equations, new examples of fuel-rich combustion, and a new summary of techniques to mitigate against thermal expansion and shock. Readers will also enjoy: Thorough introductions to thermodynamics, fluid mechanics, and heat transfer, including topics like the thermodynamics of state, flow in porous media, and radiant exchangeA broad exploration of combustion fundamentals, including pollutant formation and control, combustion safety, and simple tools for computing thermochemical equilibrium when product gases contain carbon monoxide and hydrogenPractical discussions of process flow diagrams, including intelligent CAD, equipment, process lines, valves and instruments, and non-engineering itemsIn-depth examinations of advanced thermodynamics, including customized functions to compute thermodynamic properties of air, combustion products, water/steam, and ammonia right in the user’s Excel workbookPerfect for students and instructors in capstone design courses, Thermal Systems Design: Fundamentals and Projects is also a must-read resource for mechanical and chemical engineering practitioners who are seeking to extend their engineering know-how to a wide range of unfamiliar thermal systems.
