This Atlas summarizes current surgical strategy for cerebral revascularization in the treatment of complex neurovascular diseases. It focuses on complex intracranial aneurysms, which are mostly large/giant, irregular and short of enough collateral compensation. In the first part, it starts from the extracranial-intracranial (EC-IC) bypass strategy. For the complex middle cerebral artery aneurysms, the types of EC-IC bypass are determined based on the angioarchitecture. Furthermore, various intracranial-intracranial (IC-IC) bypasses are introduced, with the advantage of no need for graft vessel harvesting and preferable matching of donor and receipt arteries. This Atlas provides useful knowledge and cases about this basic and indispensable skill for neurosurgeons.

This book is an in-depth examination of the inner workings, origins, and future trajectory of digital currencies. It presents an analytical overview of the technologies underpinning cryptocurrencies and explores their development from a technical, economic, and regulatory standpoint. Readers will gain an understanding of the philosophical debates surrounding digital currencies, including the varying degrees of decentralization and the challenges cryptocurrencies face for widespread adoption as public payment methods. The text also explores how anonymity within the blockchain is reconciled with increasing regulatory oversight. Central to the book’s discourse is the exploration of a potential future shaped by digital currency regulation, positing the emergence of a “Republic of Supremacy” as a hypothetical global authority. This scenario prompts a reevaluation of traditional concepts of sovereignty and the shifting landscape of power in the digital age.

This book serves as an informative resource for a diverse audience, including those new to the digital currency conversation, individuals seeking to understand the sociological implications of these technologies, and tech innovators interested in the sector''s evolution. It provides a factual and exploratory analysis, presenting a clear viewpoint through comprehensive and logical examination of the subject matter. This book is designed to equip readers with the knowledge to critically assess the current state and future possibilities of digital currencies within the global economic and social framework.
