The most important advance in recent epileptology is the recognition of epileptic syndromes and diseases, most of which are well defined and easy to diagnose. The benign childhood partial seizures syndromes exemplify the importance of a precise diagnosis and classification of epilepsies. They are common, and have an excellent prognosis which is better than that of febrile convulsions. Paediatricians and clinical neurophysiologists are now familiar with the Rolandic seizures but are not yet accustomed to diagnosing other benign childhood partial seizures and in particular benign childhood occipital seizures which are often confused with cerebral insults or migraine. The aim of this reference book is to describe the clinical and EEG manifestations of benign childhood partial seizures with particular emphasis on the occipital seizures which are often more characteristic, easier to diagnose and, in some cases, more benign than Rolandic seizures.
Provdes details of knowledge on clinical and EEG aspects of Panayiotopoulos syndrome, that affects 6 percent of children with epileptic seizures and is entirely benign. This book analyses relations with Rolandic, other childhood seizure susceptibility syndromes and Gastaut type idiopathic occipital epilepsy.

In Mist Hill, the Appalachian village of their childhood, the long-estranged Collins siblings Kate and Lynuel (the former a worldly success, the latter a local failure) reunite and confront the past when they encounter the Roma love-child of their dead father and experience the traumatic intrusion of world events on this isolated corner of the world.Waking in the Aftermaths brings to life the Collins siblings Kate and Lynuel, children from one of the 'better' families of the village of Mist Hill, WV, who in 1961 embark upon an adventure that misfires and drastically influences their life trajectories in opposite ways. Kate becomes a driven human rights activist and poet, worldly and respected, long married to a Moroccan professor; yet in spite of every appearance of success, Kate is tormented by her responsibility for what she believes happened in 1961. Her modus operandi is to push people away, hard. Lyn on the other hand is a substance abuser and petty thief (later reformed) who has to all intents never left home; the result of their childhood misadventure for him has been an overwhelming fatalism.In 2001, Kate returns to Mist Hill for a rare visit at the same time that the aftermath of September 11th engulfs her, her Moroccan, Muslim husband, and their child. These current troubles merge with the continuing aftermath of the traumatic event of her and Lyn's childhood. Meanwhile, across the road and the railroad tracks, on the edge of the river, an eccentric family of three women has restored and moved into one of the group of hovels formerly known as 'Gypsytown.' They are the remnants of the Stanleys and the Hearnes, Roma families who had once lived there. Arabella Stanley, the youngest, has a relationship to the same past that Lyn and Kate share, but they have yet to learn what that relationship is. As the Collins and Stanley/Hearne families meet and their individuals stories unwind and merge in this isolated mountain setting, the past is finally laid to rest - as much as it is possible for the past to be. Our three protagonists, Kate, Lyn and Arabella, learn how to truly shoulder the burdens each has been given.
Athens and the Greek Miracle (1948) is a work of interpretation, poetic in character rather than scientific or historical, that attempts to penetrate some of the primary causes of this unique Athenian culture, to evoke its past spirit in the modern world.

The residents of a dome city believe they're the last of humanity. But a young technician's discovery of a strange radio signal suggests they may not be alone. Can they learn the truth from within their glass cage? The Dome Project was meant to protect America’s best and brightest from a climate catastrophe. When they lost contact with the outside world, all they could do was wait and hope. But four generations later, Dome Six is still waiting, and hope is in short supply. When a suspected saboteur threatens the safety of the Dome, Owen and his conspiracy-loving uncle uncover a mysterious signal that may point the way out. But a veil of lies has long obscured the Dome's secrets, and the ruling Authority will kill to protect them. As the only world they've ever known crumbles around them, Owen and his friends must stop the Authority and escape before the Dome becomes their tomb. Dome Six is a gripping and suspenseful dystopian novel with influences from Logan's Run to The Island and 1984. If you can relate to the search for hope and humanity in a world run amok, you'll devour this thought-provoking take on a near-future America.
