RevMED teaches students how to interpret clinical cases by presenting key details of the history and examination of a patient and making them choose between five plausible options. RevMED contains questions on a broad variety of topics in general medicine and surgery that range in difficulty to cover the basics, but also challenge even the most able students. The explanations include up-to-date guidelines and a thorough exploration of not only the correct answer, but a breakdown of the incorrect options as well. Therefore, each SBA is a form of case-based tutorial that can succinctly communicate a concept in general medicine or surgery. Question books are an exceptionally useful resource for medical students preparing for their clinical exams. RevMED is designed by medical students who recently sat clinical written examinations and has been reviewed by doctors/professors thereby combining clinical accuracy with a student-friendly delivery.

Patterns of the Future explains the current world using the theory of long-term development waves (Kondratiev waves). Markku Wilenius, Professor of Futures Studies, argues that we are now entering the sixth wave: the age of intelligent, integrated technologies, helping to restore the balance between humans, technology and nature by radically improved material and energy efficiency and a wiser use of human potential. The unfolding sixth wave will challenge our current values, institutions and business models. Using a systems-based approach, Patterns of the Future analyses how corporations and the public sector can navigate in the sixth wave. Case studies look at specific examples of this, using high-profile companies to demonstrate both the best (and worst) case scenarios of innovation for change. This book spans concepts from multiple disciplines in the social sciences, making it relevant not only to undergraduate and graduate students in futures studies, environmental studies, economics, and business, but also national policymakers, think tanks, corporate operators and indeed for any one seriously interested in the future.

In Making Uzbekistan, Adeeb Khalid chronicles the tumultuous history of Central Asia in the age of the Russian revolution. He explores the complex interaction between Uzbek intellectuals, local Bolsheviks, and Moscow to sketch out the flux of the situation in early-Soviet Central Asia. His focus on the Uzbek intelligentsia allows him to recast our understanding of Soviet nationalities policies. Uzbekistan, he argues, was not a creation of Soviet policies, but a project of the Muslim intelligentsia that emerged in the Soviet context through the interstices of the complex politics of the period. Making Uzbekistan introduces key texts from this period and argues that what the decade witnessed was nothing short of a cultural revolution.
