Grow Healthier as You Grow Older is a personal look at the history of the fitness revolution, a guide for…
preventive health and fitness to improve the quality and quantity of your life, and an inspirational account of Dr. Kenneth Cooper&’s lifelong dedication to the mission of serving others.These days, workouts come in a wide variety, from hot yoga to HIIT (high intensity interval training) classes, pickleball to hip-hop dance. Exercise can be used in three ways: for rest and relaxation, for muscle-building and figure-contouring, and for cardiorespiratory fitness. All three have merit but only one can protect you from disease and prolong your life, and that is exercise for cardiorespiratory fitness—or, as most people call it: cardio. Walking, running, cycling, swimming, dancing, tennis, dancing—anything that gets your heart rate up and causes you to increase your oxygen intake over a certain period of time. Our survival depends on our ability to take in oxygen and deliver it efficiently to every area of the body. Dr. Kenneth Cooper&’s work as a pioneering researcher and preventive medicine physician has proven the benefits of aerobic exercise and how physiological changes in the body positively impact your overall health—plus make you feel good. Learning to follow his 8 Steps to Get Cooperized™ may be the way to make you healthy again, as it could the entire world, and help extend your life by as much as 10 years. Even minimal improvements—such as going from being totally inactive to exercising just 30 minutes a day, most days per week—are enough to drastically alter the course of a person&’s life. Reduce your risk of Alzheimer&’s and dementia, chronic kidney disease, congestive heart failure, and certain types of cancer by moving more. Today, at age 94, after practicing and teaching the value of preventive medicine, Dr. Cooper continues to think about new ways of doing things, new ways of presenting and studying data, new ways of looking at prevention. Take a deep dive inside the mind of an icon. He&’s done the research for you. Now it&’s your choice to become healthier sooner than later.

Mahayana, the monastic codes, and Buddhism&’s art-historical and epigraphical remains.This volume honors the profoundly transformative influence of Gregory Schopen&’s many contributions to Buddhist studies. Eighteen articles by former students and colleagues focus on the areas of Schopen&’s most noteworthy influence: the study of the Mahayana, particularly of its early sutra literature; the study of Vinaya, especially the narratives accompanying the rules for monks and nuns; and the study of Buddhist epigraphy and art history. Contributors demonstrate the ongoing significance of Schopen&’s scholarship, including his very first article, on the cult of the book in the early Mahayana, published fifty years ago. Schopen has repeatedly shown how the study of Buddhism has too often focused on scriptures and normative doctrines and not enough on the practical ideas and contexts that significantly impacted the lives of actual Buddhists. He sought to reveal these lived concerns in the massive trove of Buddhist inscriptions, which often expose the habits and ideas of the tradition&’s most prominent donors (many of whom were monastics), as well as the everyday concerns of monks and nuns, whose views did not always dovetail with canonical sources. Even in his treatment of canonical sources, Schopen has shown that the standard portrait of a Buddhist monk or nun fails to match a careful reading of their law codes—his work on the Mulasarvastivada-vinaya has required scholars to substantially reimagine the legal and ritual obligations, as well as the economic concerns, that preoccupied the minds of Buddhist jurists. Schopen has, in essence, brought the Buddha down to earth, revealing that this is precisely where most Indian Buddhists encountered him. The contributions in this celebratory volume reflect this legacy and Schopen&’s considerable impact on our understanding of Buddhists in India.

Renowned DEA agents Chris Feistl and Dave Mitchell tell the incredible true story of how they helped dismantle the world&’s…
single most powerful crime syndicate, as featured in Season 3 of the hit Netflix series Narcos.By the early 1990s, Colombia&’s Cali cartel had become what the former head of the DEA Thomas Constantine referred to as &“The biggest and most powerful crime syndicate in history.&” Responsible for nearly 85% of the cocaine that reached U.S. soil and 90% worldwide, they were untouchable, earning billions of dollars all while maintaining their reputation as &‘The Godfathers of Cali&” and brazenly corrupting thousands of Colombian authorities and government officials, even &“buying&” the outcome of the 1994 presidential election. In 1994, the DEA sent young operatives Chris Feistl and Dave Mitchell to Colombia with one formidable task: help Colombian authorities take down the ruthless leaders of the brutal Cali cartel. Not any easy job for two men who looked more like tall, lanky surfers than DEA agents: standing well over six feet tall and only six years removed from the DEA Academy, they were the epitome of conspicuous in a city where most residents rarely, if ever, saw an American in person. Many of their colleagues feared for their safety, openly questioning their ability to blend in. Their almost three-year journey would lead them from the bureaucratic halls of the U.S. Embassy to the violent streets of Cali and deep into its rural sugar cane fields, on high alert day and night as they dodged deadly cartel assassins and oftentimes worked unilaterally to battle the unprecedented corruption within Colombia&’s security forces. Over time their relentless efforts began to slowly degrade the godfathers&’ defenses and weaken their infrastructure.

zum Ziel, unterschiedliche Vorstellungen von Heil und Unheil unter religiösen und säkularen, kulturellen und technischen Standpunkten zu eruieren und zu analysieren. Hierfür wurde von der Prämisse ausgegangen, dass Heils- wie Unheilserwartungen zu keinem Zeitpunkt ausschließlich Ausdruck einer religiösen Gottesfurcht waren, sondern auch profaner bzw. weltlicher Natur sein konnten. Zu den säkularen Glaubensformen zählt z. B. der vielfach diskutierte Glaube an den medizinischen und technischen Fortschritt als irdische ,Heilsbringer’. Die Grundannahme der Tagung ermöglichte ein vielfältiges Spektrum an Deutungskulturen in unterschiedlichen Glaubensrichtungen, in den Geschichts- und Sozialwissenschaften, in der Medizin und der Pädagogik. In ihren Beiträgen diskutieren die Referent*innen Utopien und Dystopien, säkulare Erlösungsstrategien und nicht zuletzt die Versprechen des Transhumanismus.

This current textbook provides residents, fellows, and surgeons with an interest in fracture care with the key aspects of, and…
considerations for, common orthopedic trauma cases. Divided into thematic sections and arranged anatomically, each procedure is described in detail, focusing on patient positioning and the exact steps required to complete each procedure, including traumatic fracture management, external fixation techniques and periprosthetic fractures. To supplement the written step-by-step descriptions, plentiful radiography and intraoperative photos are included to further explain and demonstrate critical or complex steps. Additionally, practical tips by the Harvard orthopedic faculty, and tricks that they have learned over their lifetimes in this field and by treating large numbers of patients, are highlighted. Often, the education of orthopedic surgery residents is based upon the trust and confidence level that develops between an orthopedic attending and his or her resident. Provided with crucial information for a surgical procedure as well as background information, the level of trust and thereby education should increase exponentially. Junior or senior residents and even consultants frequently refer to handbooks prior to surgically treating patients, which provide easily accessible, concise information. Only a few books exist that detail the steps that meticulously describe surgical tips and tricks for orthopedic trauma cases. While geared mainly toward residents, attendings and senior medical students in orthopedics and orthopedic traumatology, Operative Techniques in Orthopedic Trauma is a valuable resource for allied health professionals, including NPs and PAs.

This book argues that the growing and seemingly unstoppable centralization of capital undermines national democracies, fuels wars, destroys the environment,…
and, tragically, exacerbates global hunger. In an era of overwhelming confusion, this book seeks to bring clarity by relying on empirical data and the insights of intellectuals from diverse and pluralistic schools of thought. These thinkers, often overlooked by the mainstream, remain unaligned with specific interest groups and offer critical, honest, and deeply human perspectives on the world. The book&’s central goal is to place the theme of peace at the forefront of public debate, demonstrating that movements for environmental and social justice are fundamentally part of the same struggle for human survival. This book situates current events within their historical context and a broader historical continuum. It acknowledges that today&’s unfolding polycrisis is deeply rooted in global politics over the past half-century, with origins that trace back to early industrialization and colonization—key processes that established the West as a global hegemon. By offering this historical perspective, the book directly challenges dominant public narratives, which often frame contemporary crises as isolated, immediate events disconnected from their historical roots.
