  Over the past two decades, medical and therapeutic approaches to transgender patients have changed radically, from treating a supposed pathology to offering gender-affirming care. Based on ethnographic fieldwork in New York City and Buenos Aires, Care without Pathology moves across the Americas to show how trans- health activists have taken on the project of depathologization. 
   
   
   
  In New York, Christoph Hanssmann examines activist attempts to overturn bans on using public health dollars to fund trans- health care. In Argentina, he traces how trans- activists marshaled medical statistics and personal biographies to reveal state violence directed against trans- people and travestis. Hanssmann also demonstrates the importance of understanding transphobia in the broader context of gendered racism, ableism, and antipoverty, arguing for the rise of a thoroughly coalition-based mass mobilization. 
   
   
   
  Care without Pathology highlights the distributive arguments activists made to access state funding for health care, combating state arguments that funding trans- health care is too specialized, too expensive, and too controversial. Hanssmann situates trans- health as a crucible within which sweeping changes are taking place—with potentially far-reaching effects on the economic and racial barriers to accessing care.

  As an Emergency Medicine consultant in one of the busiest departments in the United Kingdom, Dr. Jonny Acheson loved his job. Fueled by adrenaline, he treated and cared for some of the sickest patients who came through the doors. 
   
  In 2016, when he was forty-one, he was diagnosed with Parkinson's, a progressive neurological condition for which there is no cure. 
   
  He found it increasingly difficult to multitask in his fast-paced world. The environment that he thrived in made his symptoms worse. Parkinson's challenged his professional identity as an emergency doctor, and he didn't know what to do. 
   
  When Your Neurons Dance is about how he is adapting over time with support around him—how he looked to the past to help him in the present, embracing change as new doors opened both inside and outside medicine. 
   
  Ultimately as a doctor practicing with Parkinson's, he found a way to give back, despite a condition that always takes away.

  Hunter. Worker. Legend. The untold story of the dog's role in building a nation. 
    
  The Dogs That Made Australia pays tribute to the dogs that gave their all for our prosperity: the fearless hounds that saved fledgling colonies from famine; the courageous heelers and tireless collies that powered the rise of beef and wool; the tough little home-grown terriers that protected the homestead and garden; and the extraordinary police dogs, ahead of their time, loved by the nation. The selfless exploits of our heroic dogs are writ indelibly in our nation's heritage and identity. The Dogs That Made Australia is a vivid and meticulously researched history of Australia told from the perspectives of the dingo and of the dogs that were imported and developed here, as well as the humans who loved, feared and worked them. 
  PRAISE 
  'A highly readable book about Australia's dog heroes and their contribution to Australia's development. This is a book for the ages. I loved every page!' Tony Parsons, OAM, author of The Kelpie'This should be on every school list for every primary school. It is a fantastic Australian history reference' Narelle Hammond, Secretary, Australian Cattle Dog Society of NSW

  Mathematical Methods for...

  Mathematical physics provides the essential framework for formulating and solving physical problems using mathematical methods. The foundations of mathematical physics are rooted in the application of mathematical structures, such as differential equations, linear algebra, and group theory, to describe the fundamental laws of nature. Physics relies heavily on mathematical formalism to express physical quantities, relationships, and conservation laws. The development of mathematical physics has enabled the discovery and prediction of new physical phenomena, from classical mechanics to quantum field theory. 
  The language of mathematical physics is built on the concept of physical observables represented by mathematical objects such as scalars, vectors, tensors, and operators. Scalars represent single-valued quantities, vectors represent quantities with both magnitude and direction, and tensors generalize vectors to higher dimensions. Operators, such as differential operators and linear operators, act on these mathematical objects to produce measurable physical outcomes. 
  Differential equations are central to mathematical physics, as they describe how physical quantities change with respect to one another. Ordinary differential equations (ODEs) govern the behavior of systems that depend on a single variable, such as the motion of a particle under a central force. Partial differential equations (PDEs) describe systems that depend on multiple variables, such as wave propagation and heat conduction. Solutions to differential equations provide the time evolution and spatial distribution of physical systems.
