Abstract

This book contains a total of 21 chapters, each of which was written by experts in the corresponding field. The objective of this book is to provide a comprehensive and updated overview of cellular and molecular mechanisms underlying hypoxia's impacts on human health, as well as current advances and future directions in the detection, recognition, and management of hypoxia-related disorders. This collection of articles provides a clear update in the area of hypoxia research for biomedical researchers, medical students, nurse practitioners, and practicing clinicians in the fields of high altitude biology, cardiovascular biology and medicine, tumor oncology, obstetrics, pediatrics, and orthodontics and for others who may be interested in hypoxia.

Abstract

"This volume traces the past and present of public dissection. From Italian anatomy theaters to American dissecting laboratories, it chronicles the attacks on anatomy in the Middle Ages, the influence of Renaissance anatomist Andreas Vesalius, the procurement of bodies through execution and body snatchers, and the withdrawal of dissectors behind medical school doors in the early 20th century"--

Abstract

Of enduring historical and contemporary interest, the anatomy theater is where students of the human body learn to isolate structures in decaying remains, scrutinize their parts, and assess their importance. Taking a new look at the history of anatomy, Cynthia Klestinec places public dissections alongside private ones to show how the anatomical theater was both a space of philosophical learning, which contributed to a deeper scientific analysis of the body, and a place where students learned to behave, not with ghoulish curiosity, but rather in a civil manner toward their teachers, their peers, and the corpse. Klestinec argues that the drama of public dissection in the Renaissance (which on occasion included musical accompaniment) served as a ploy to attract students to anatomical study by way of anatomy’s philosophical dimensions rather than its empirical offerings. While these venues have been the focus of much scholarship, the private traditions of anatomy comprise a neglected and crucial element of anatomical inquiry. Klestinec shows that in public anatomies, amid an increasingly diverse audience—including students and professors, fishmongers and shoemakers—anatomists emphasized the conceptual framework of natural philosophy, whereas private lessons afforded novel visual experiences where students learned about dissection, observed anatomical particulars, considered surgical interventions, and eventually speculated on the mechanical properties of physiological functions. Theaters of Anatomy focuses on the post-Vesalian era, the often-overlooked period in the history of anatomy after the famed Andreas Vesalius left the University of Padua. Drawing on the letters and testimony of Padua's medical students, Klestinec charts a new history of anatomy in the Renaissance, one that characterizes the role of the anatomy theater and reconsiders the pedagogical debates and educational structure behind human dissection.

Abstract

La leçon d’anatomie autrefois, le prélèvement d’organes aujourd’hui provoquent l’horreur des proches ou hantent les dernières heures de l’existence. Un sentiment de violation suscite la culpabilité de n’avoir pu empêcher la mutilation du corps de la personne aimée. Le greffé lui-même n’est pas indemne de troubles personnels après la transplantation. Le "don" qu’il reçoit est subtilement empoisonné d’exquise ou de cruelle façon.Le corps établit la frontière de l’identité personnelle ; brouiller cet ordre symbolique qui fixe la position précise de chaque individu dans le lien social, revient à effacer les limites identitaires du dehors et du dedans, du moi et de l’autre. Les limites du corps dessinent à leur échelle l’ordre moral et signifiant du monde. Un trouble introduit dans la configuration du corps est un trouble introduit dans la cohérence du monde. Ce champ de forces où s’opposent des valeurs que l’histoire n’a jamais réconciliées, est ici abordé sous l’angle de l’anthropologie, c’est-à-dire en s’efforçant de comprendre l’homme en tant qu’homme, acteur social, producteur de significations et de valeurs, inventeur de son univers propre dans la pluralité du monde possible.
