Illustrated Manual of Orthognathic Surgery: Combined Bimaxillary Osteotomies in the Facial Skeleton
by Nicolas Hardt Peter Kessler Kensuke YamauchiThe third volume of a multi-volume series considers the gain in experience and knowledge in orthognathic surgery through preoperative 3D planning and postoperative control using established and new clinical protocols in orthognathic maxillofacial surgery. Standard techniques in orthognathic oral and maxillofacial surgery are contrasted with alternatives based on years of experience and knowledge. Orthognathic oral and maxillofacial surgery has experienced a renaissance in recent years, mainly due to three-dimensional radiologic imaging, digital planning and computer-aided manufacturing techniques. The book is deliberately structured in such a way that the clinical situation is supplemented with graphic illustrations for better understanding, which are intended to point out special situations that can in turn positively influence the surgical planning of the procedure in order to avoid undesirable results in individual cases. Volume III deals with the bimaxillary approach for the correction of facial deformities. The book will have a reduced text section but with many clinical images to show the logic of the surgical approach in a simple and clear way to the surgeon who is image-oriented. Illustrations must help where radiological images fail. The structure of the book will nevertheless be classic, as the variations of the established techniques can only be understood on the basis of historical development. A corresponding book that combines clinical situations with pre- and postoperative radiological and clinical evaluation and graphic explanation does not exist to date. It will appeal to a broad readership of students and professionals working within Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, Orthodontics, Plastic and Craniofacial Surgery, and Otorhinolaryngology.

Veränderungen wirksam begleiten: Denkimpulse für Führungskräfte, Personaler und Change Agents
by Svenja HofertVeränderung tangiert die gesamte Arbeitswelt, die in einem nicht enden wollenden Umbruch steckt. Es geht dabei vor allem um die Veränderung von Führung und die Veränderung der Arbeit an sich. Das beinhaltet Change Management, Organisationsentwicklung sowie den Kultur- und Strukturwandel: alles ist miteinander verbunden. Menschen, die zu Veränderung beraten, diese begleiten oder gestalten, stecken gewöhnlich voller Veränderungskraft. Sie sehen den Change oft positiver als andere. Doch dieser „Change“, auch „Transformation“ oder „Kulturwandel“ ist in der Praxis meistens zäher als in der eigenen Vorstellung. Deshalb geht es immer auch um die eigene Position zum Wandel und die Rolle darin. Die Autorin gibt Denkimpulse für Menschen, die mit komplexen menschlichen Themen in Veränderungssituationen zu tun haben und diese aktiv gestalten möchten. Sie räumt mit vorliegenden Vorstellungen von „Change“ auf und kontrastiert dabei veraltete Grundannahmen und Konzepte mit neuen Erkenntnissen aus Theorie und Empirie. Eine Rolle spielt dabei etwa die Abkehr von der Sicht auf Individuen hin zur Gruppe. Dabei überschreitet sie typische Grenzen zwischen Wirtschaft, Psychologie, Philosophie und Soziologie.
