  Imagine a future where your smartphone could save your life, or an AI-enabled ultrasound device can make scanning more accurate. Healthcare organizations and experts around the world are coming together to transform how care is delivered. Authors Paul Cerrato, MA, and John D. Halamka, MD, MS, leaders in data science and healthcare strategy at the world-renowned Mayo Clinic, explore these ideas and Mayo Clinic Platform, the first comprehensive platform in healthcare that envisions a world where personalized, predictive, and innovative care is accessible to all. Today’s digital tools include apps that detect abnormal heart rhythms, skin cancer, and other life-threatening conditions. They can identify early-onset diabetes and improve the detection rate of colorectal cancer. High-quality, at-home cancer care is becoming a reality. Welcome to the new era of digital health, where advanced technology and big data revolutionize the way you and your loved ones receive care.Mayo Clinic Platform is the first AI-enabled comprehensive healthcare platform aimed at making top-tier healthcare available to everyone—no matter where they are—through cutting-edge data science, analytics, and innovative business applications. This ambitious project, targeted at solving some of the most pressing healthcare issues, includes healthcare service providers, pharmaceutical companies, medical device firms, health tech startups, and patients located on four continents. Touching approximately 56 million patient lives in 2024, the Platform’s groundbreaking efforts are already making a global impact. Using Platform architecture, Mayo Clinic and its partners are revolutionizing the practice of medicine, resulting in faster, more accurate and more efficient diagnosis, improved treatment approaches, and quicker delivery of new cures to patients, with more exciting developments on the horizon. Welcome to the journey.

  The Hobo: The Sociology Of The Homeless Man is a book written by Nels Anderson, which provides a comprehensive sociological study of the homeless population in America during the early 20th century. The book explores the lives and experiences of ""hobos"" - a term used to describe homeless men who traveled from place to place in search of work - and sheds light on the social and economic factors that led to their homelessness.Anderson's research is based on his own experiences living among the homeless population, as well as interviews with hundreds of hobos across the country. He examines the unique culture and social structures that developed within the hobo community, including their codes of conduct, language, and customs.The book also delves into the larger societal issues that contributed to the rise of homelessness during this time period, such as the Great Depression, industrialization, and the decline of traditional forms of work. Anderson argues that the hobo lifestyle was a response to these larger societal changes, and that understanding the hobo subculture is crucial to understanding the broader social and economic forces at play.Overall, The Hobo: The Sociology Of The Homeless Man is a groundbreaking work that provides a nuanced and empathetic look at the lives of homeless men during a tumultuous period in American history. It is a must-read for anyone interested in the sociology of homelessness, as well as anyone interested in the history of American society and culture.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.

  Welcome to the frontier where mind meets machine. 
  This 48-lecture audio course delivers a sweeping, PhD-level exploration of neuroprosthetics and brain–computer interfaces (BCIs), tracing the arc from early electrical experiments to the latest breakthroughs in neural decoding, cortical stimulation, and cognitive enhancement. It weaves together foundational neuroscience, cutting-edge engineering, landmark clinical use cases, and the emerging societal implications of brain–machine integration. 
  Listeners will journey through the biology of neurons and networks, the physics of electrodes and wireless implants, the clinical realities of stroke, ALS, and Parkinson’s disease, and the technological future of memory prosthetics, speech decoding, and real-time brain–AI symbiosis. Along the way, the course tackles the deepest questions: What happens when a mind is routed through a machine? Who owns neural data? And what does it mean to be augmented? 
  Rigorous, narrative-driven, and designed for the intellectually ambitious, this course is an essential guide to one of the most transformative domains in science and technology.

  Words from the Hedge - A...

   Words from the Hedge   is a passionate evocation of the history, beauty and importance of our hedgerows by a craftsman who has been laying hedges for almost three decades and has the scars to prove it. 
  
  
  Hedges are as old as civilisation and as emblematic of the British countryside as chalk streams, hay meadows and oak trees. But unlike woodland and rivers, farmland hedges remain on the periphery of the public consciousness, often going unnoticed and almost always underappreciated. Wielding his pen as deftly he does a billhook, professional hedgelayer Richard Negus takes us on a journey that reveals these ribbons of thorn and barb are so much more than mere decoration or boundary markers. They are essential for much-needed wildlife recovery. If we don't get our hedges right, there is little hope for species like the almost-extinct turtledove.
  
  
  And yet, no hedge is truly 'wild'; each one is a testament to generations of human skill and labour, requiring ongoing maintenance to survive and thrive. But there is a problem: we need more hedgelayers, and this is something Negus is trying to solve.
  
  
  Introducing a lively band of fellow countrymen and countrywomen along the way, Negus explores everything from the practical complexities of modern farming and land ownership to the challenges faced by conservationists. Written with vigour and humour, as well as rare insight and honesty,  Words from the Hedge  is a timely exploration of how we can use hedges to make the British countryside a place where nature has a home.
