      "Fifty years ago, when I was born in a summer storm to a widowed mother in a little town in Arkansas, it was unthinkable that I might ever become President." "Like other people, I have had crises in my life, personal crises, personal failures, the sense that I had let myself and others down, the sense that maybe I'd never be the person God wanted me to be." He was the first president to represent the baby-boom generation and the last president of the twentieth century. An activist chief executive whose ambition was to "build a bridge" to a rapidly changing American future, he was the product of a small Arkansas upbringing steeped in tradition. Now, here is a portrait of William Jefferson Clinton, a brilliant and complex man and leader, in the words of the one person who knows him himself. Here are the most fascinating and revealing glimpses into one of the most quotable presidents of our time. "We must never let a blizzard of statistics blind us to the real people and the real lives behind them." "There's a poll saying that forty percent of the American people think Hillary's smarter than I am. What I don't understand is how the other sixty percent missed it."

    • Drawing on the greatest repository of human pathologic material in the world, authors from the Armed Forces Institute of Pathology and around the world discuss the more common, as well as the unique, rare, and unusual helminthes that infect human beings. With over 500 pages of text and more than 1,300 figures and superb photographs, 90% of which are in color, this book provides the most comprehensive description and illustration of the morphology and life cycles of helminths, and the history, clinical features, histopathology, diagnosis, and treatment of helminthic infections. Authors from AFIP, who have decades of hands-on experience, have personally confirmed all diagnostic criteria. The book has many new and beneficial features not found in similar texts, including tables of morphologic features and geographic locations, and a specially designed index to guide readers to a correct identification of helminthes and the clinical and pathologic changes they cause. With worldwide travel now commonplace, this volume is a must for pathologists, clinicians, parasitologists, lab technologists, biologists, veterinarians, and related health care workers.
