A crise financeira global expôs a fraqueza da teoria econômica dominante e de políticas desregulatórias, maculou o modelo de laissez-faire do capitalismo, e precipitou uma reavaliação generalizada do papel do estado no controle do mercado. Enquanto a experiência dos BICs que oferece um poderoso modelo de ativismo do estado que transcende o Consenso de Washington, está em boa companhia. Um exame das experiências do passado e do futuro do Nordeste da Ásia (NEA) e dos Estados Unidos contesta, por um lado, vários mitos relativos ao pretenso desaparecimento do estado desenvolvimentista, e por outro, a chegada de um estado neoliberal. Enquanto o NEA oferece um modelo bem estudado do avanço industrial (catch-up) orientado pelo estado, que o neoliberalismo teria relegado ao lixo da história, os Estados Unidos fornecem um modelo substituto de supremacia tecnológica patrocinado pelo estado, que poucos desejam reconhecer.
This is a truly excellant book. It covers, with a readable and practical approach, the physical principles which form the basis for diagnostic ultrasound. "he author proceeds from a discussion of general physical principles of diagnostic ultrasound to specific applications in B-scan instruments, real-time scanning, time motion scanning and Doppler. Although Dr. McDicken is not a physician, it is clear that he wrote this book to communicate with physicians. The few equations which are introduced are relevant. General principles are quickly followed by practical applications of the principle.The first edition was published five years ago. Since that time, there has been a rapid expansion of the types of instrumentation available, and this book reflects those changes. It is greatly expanded compared with the first edition (24 chapters compared with 18), and the vast majority of the older chapters have been extensively rewritten, updated, and expanded. The new material falls into the following categories: 1) Three entirely new chapters on real-time principles and instrumentation, plus extensive commentary on real-time techniques throughout the remainder of the text. 2) More material on transducer focusing, including a lucid discussion of quarter wave transducers. 3) A completely new chapter on scan converters and computers in gray-scale imaging. 4) A completely new chapter on display and recording of images. 5) A revised discussion of the effect of sensitivity controls on gray-scale B-scan images.

The research studied illustration and the history of illustrated books in order to develop and enrich a parallel practical research, which was the production of an illustrated book using mixed media. The book was made with digital drawings and woodblock prints. Everything was authorial, from the script to the drawings.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
