The Threshold of the Visible World
ISBN: 9780415910392 / Angielski / Miękka / 1995 / 264 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych.

Pet in the Evaluation of Alzheimer's Disease and Related Disorders
ISBN: 9780387764191 / Angielski / Twarda / 2009 / 215 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Among all the clinical indications for which radiologists, nuclear medicine phy- cians, neurologists, neurosurgeons, psychiatrists (and others examining disorders of the brain) order and read brain PET scans, demand is greatest for those pertaining to dementia and related disorders.

Frantz Fanon's 'Black Skin, White Masks': New Interdisciplinary Essays

First published in 1952, Frantz Fanon's Black Skin, White Masks is one of the most important anti-colonial works of the post-war period.

Chapters deal with Fanon's Martinican...
