Social Robotics and the Good Life: The Normative Side of Forming Emotional Bonds with Robots by Janina Loh & Wulf Loh 

Robots as social companions in close proximity to humans have a strong potential of becoming more and more prevalent in the coming years, especially in the realms of elder day care, child rearing, and education. As human beings, we have the fascinating ability to emotionally bond with various counterparts, not exclusively with other human beings, but also with animals, plants, and sometimes even objects. Therefore, we need to answer the fundamental ethical questions that concern human-robot-interactions per se, and we need to address how we conceive of »good lives«, as more and more of the aspects of our daily lives will be interwoven with social robots.

A Nurse's Step-By-Step Guide to Writing a Dissertation or Scholarly Project, Third Edition, is a straightforward how-to guide.

Unofficial Guide to Radiology: 100 Practice Abdominal X-Rays by Daniel Weinberg et al. 

The Unofficial Guide to Radiology: 100 Practice Abdominal X Rays is the sequel to The Unofficial Guide to Radiology, which has been recommended by the Royal College of Radiologist and won awards from the British Institute of Radiology and the British Medical Association. This book teaches systematic analysis of Abdominal X Rays. The layout is designed to make the book as relevant to clinical practice as possible; the X-rays are presented in the context of a real-life scenario. The reader is asked to interpret the X-ray before turning over the page to reveal a model report accompanied by a fully color annotated version of the X-ray. Uniquely, all cases provide realistic high quality X-Ray images, are annotated in full color, and are fully reported, following international radiology reporting guidelines. This means the X-Rays are explained comprehensively, but with clear annotation so that a complete beginner can follow the thinking of the expert. This book has relevance beyond examinations, for post graduate further education and as a day-to-day reference for professionals.
