Release : 2000-06-30
Category : Medical
ISBN : 9780792364726
Book Description
The first edition of this manual appeared in 1992 and was entitled ECAT Assay Procedures. This completely revised new edition combines the strengths of the first edition with new and useful features. Laboratory Techniques in Thrombosis - a Manual still gives detailed descriptions of the recommended assays and their alternatives. However, the manual now has a broader scope because it is no longer limited by the frontiers of ECAT. Experts all over the world have contributed to this edition. Furthermore, new assays have been introduced, improvements have been suggested for other assays, while a few others have become redundant or no longer available. The list of manufacturers is fully updated and a list of the recommended nomenclature of quantities in thrombosis and haemostasis is new to this edition, further facilitating the use of this manual. Laboratory Techniques in Thrombosis - a Manual will contribute to furthering the much needed harmonization and standardization of tests within the field and should have a place in all working haemostasis laboratories.
Ageing and Technology

Book Description
The booming increase of the senior population has become a social phenomenon and a challenge to our societies, and technological advances have undoubtedly contributed to improve the lives of elderly citizens in numerous aspects. In current debates on technology, however, the »human factor« is often largely ignored. The ageing individual is rather seen as a malfunctioning machine whose deficiencies must be diagnosed or as a set of limitations to be overcome by means of technological devices. This volume aims at focusing on the perspective of human beings deriving from the development and use of technology: this change of perspective - taking the human being and not technology first - may help us to become more sensitive to the ambivalences involved in the interaction between humans and technology, as well as to adapt technologies to the people that created the need for its existence, thus contributing to improve the quality of life of senior citizens.
