Summary

Biodegradable Implant Engineering explores the innovative realm of temporary medical implants designed to dissolve within the body, potentially eliminating the need for follow-up surgeries. This book investigates the materials science behind biocompatible polymers like polyesters and hydrogels, crucial for crafting implants with controlled degradation rates. A key insight involves understanding how the body responds to these degrading materials, including tissue integration and immune reactions. The book uniquely synthesizes diverse knowledge, offering a framework for designing implants with predictable degradation, controlled drug delivery systems, and optimal biocompatibility.

 
It progresses from foundational principles of biodegradable materials, through analysis of various polymers and their in-vivo performance, to the integration of drug delivery systems and real-world case studies, providing a comprehensive view of implant engineering. This approach ensures readers gain an understanding of how material selection, processing techniques, and implant geometry influence an implant's lifespan and therapeutic efficacy.

Coronavirus - Consequences and...

David Rogue

This is a combo of 3 books in 1. Enjoy! The titles concern the following topics:
Book 1 - With the world watching the news each day about the infamous COVID-19 Virus, a version of what is more broadly classified as a "Coronavirus," like SARS, it's hard to ignore the facts and the opinions as many economies are being put on hold, stocks are plummeting, businesses are applying for loans, and everyone is encouraged to stay at home.
Book 2 - Being stuck at home can be annoying. I watched as my in-laws were eager to hug our children but didn't, just because they wanted to abide by the rules the president of the United States and many other international leaders have set. Some people say they lost their jobs. Others report being sick of one another, not of the virus. Fortunately, I live in a nice-enough home, but I can't imagine how hard it is for some people who live in a small apartment, like the ones I've seen in Tokyo.
This book shows you some things you should or should not do during the time of being quarantined because of an epidemic or pandemic.
Book 3 - We don't know everything about the Coronavirus yet (or COVID-19, which is the more accurate name). Many reports have suggested that it may have originated from the bat soup the inhabitants of the Chinese Wuhan province drink or drank on a regular basis, since bats, like rats, are often carriers of numerous diseases. Others refer to some kind of conspiracy with a testing center and selling animals on the market there. Whatever the origin, there are certain things that we know about the health side and certain things that we don't. Stay tuned, because we will dive into the many controversial and informational sources I have acquired right now.

Strength in Numbers - How Polls...

G. Elliott Morris

Public opinion polling is the ultimate democratic process; it gives every person an equal voice in letting elected leaders know what they need and want. But in the eyes of the public, polls today are tarnished. Recent election forecasts have routinely missed the mark and media coverage of polls has focused solely on predicting winners and losers. 
 
 
 
In Strength in Numbers, data journalist G. Elliott Morris argues that the larger purpose of political polls is to improve democracy, not just predict elections. Whether used by interest groups, the press, or politicians, polling serves as a pipeline from the governed to the government, giving citizens influence they would otherwise lack. No one who believes in democracy can afford to give up on polls; they should commit, instead, to understanding them better. 
 
 
 
Morris takes listeners from the first semblance of data-gathering in the ancient world through to the development of modern-day scientific polling. He explains how the internet and "big data" have solved many challenges in polling—and created others. He covers the rise of polling aggregation and methods of election forecasting, reveals how data can be distorted and misrepresented, and demystifies the uncertainty of polling. Acknowledging where polls have gone wrong in the past, Morris charts a path for the industry's future.
