Cosmetic Surgery

EBook Description: Practices of cosmetic surgery have grown exponentially in recent years in both over-developed and developing worlds. What comprises cosmetic surgery has also changed, with a plethora of new procedures and an extraordinary rise of non-surgical operations. As the practices of cosmetic surgery have multiplied and diversified, so have feminist approaches to understanding them. For the first time leading feminist scholars including Susan Bordo, Kathy Davis, Vivian Sobchack and Kathryn Pauly Morgan, have been brought together in this comprehensive volume to reveal the complexity of feminist engagements with the phenomenon that still remains vastly more popular among women.

This handbook provides a comprehensive guide to the practice of ENT and head and neck surgery in a form that is concise, practical and easily accessible for use on the ward or for revision purposes. An anatomical list of diseases has been included, which provides a summary of the essential approach to a specific presenting complaint. "The Handbook" covers emergencies, common operations, ward care, investigations, practical procedures, and the examination and treatment of children. The emphasis is on a practical approach to the conditions which are likely to be encountered and the handbook is patient-centred throughout.
