Sinopsis

How Light Bends explores the fascinating physics of refraction, explaining why light changes direction when moving between different materials like air and water. The book explains how this bending affects our everyday experiences, from the distorted view of objects underwater to the captivating display of rainbows. Readers will gain insight into Snell's Law and the index of refraction, key concepts controlling how light behaves, and how these principles underpin various optical phenomena. The book progresses from fundamental principles to real-world applications across three sections. First, it introduces the physics of refraction. Then, it dives into specific examples such as lenses, underwater vision, and mirages. Finally, it explores practical applications in fiber optics and advanced imaging. This approach bridges physics, atmospheric science, and optics, revealing how understanding refraction is vital for both explaining natural occurrences and developing advanced technologies.

    HowExpert Guide to Phlebotomy is a glimpse into the life of being a phlebotomist in a private clinic, hospital, or plasma plant. It includes an in-depth description of the types of patients we see, the equipment we use, and how to perform blood draws. The most important part of our profession is drawing blood by inflicting the least amount of pain possible for the patient. This means that you need to be educated on the procedures for specific tests such as a Heparin Quant Assay, a PTINR, and Lipid Panels. If you don’t know these tests, odds are they will need to be redrawn, and the patient will have to undergo an unnecessary procedure. This is a safety problem since every time we puncture the skin of a patient, we risk introducing infection into their bloodstream. This book will also teach you about the order of draw, descriptions of veins, descriptions of patients, and a multitude of different scenarios. If you are beginning a career or are interested in beginning a career in phlebotomy, this book will give you a good foundation of knowledge to build upon with tangible experience. 
    About the Author 
    MacKenna Balsewicz is a 20-year-old mother of one who has spent the last three years working as a phlebotomist at different professional facilities. She started her training at Biomat Plasma Center, where she gained the confidence and skill to draw blood and care for donors. After working at Biomat for 12 months, she transferred to Bryan Hospital to work in the laboratory department. She has fallen in love with performing phlebotomy in the hospital setting and now works at Nebraska Medicine, where she draws upwards of 60 people daily. Along with being a phlebotomist, she will be graduating from the University of Nebraska Lincoln in May of 2023 with her bachelor’s degree in Psychology.

    Cardiology is the branch of medicine that deals with the diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of heart-related conditions. As one of the most vital specialties in modern medicine, it plays a crucial role in improving life expectancy and quality of life for patients with heart diseases. The heart is responsible for pumping blood throughout the body, delivering oxygen and nutrients essential for survival. Therefore, any disruption in its function can have far-reaching consequences for an individual's health. 
    The field of cardiology has a rich history, evolving significantly over the centuries. Early understanding of the heart was rudimentary, with ancient civilizations attributing its function to the soul or emotions. It was not until the 17th century, with the groundbreaking work of William Harvey, that the concept of blood circulation was fully understood. Over time, advancements in medical technology and scientific knowledge have led to a more detailed understanding of the heart's anatomy, function, and the diseases that affect it. 
    Today, cardiology is a highly specialized field that requires expertise in various sub-disciplines, including interventional cardiology, electrophysiology, heart failure management, and pediatric cardiology. The role of a cardiologist extends beyond diagnosis and treatment to include preventative care, patient education, and collaboration with other healthcare providers to ensure comprehensive care. Cardiologists use a combination of clinical evaluations, diagnostic tests, and imaging techniques to identify and treat heart diseases such as coronary artery disease, arrhythmias, heart failure, and valvular heart diseases.
