The Hermetic Science of Motion and Number
by A S RaleighThe Hermetic Science of Motion and Number by A. S. Raleigh is a profound exploration of the esoteric principles that govern the universe, offering readers a deep understanding of the mystical relationship between movement, numbers, and the hidden forces of creation.

Clark’s Procedures in Diagnostic Imaging: A System-Based Approach
by Marcus Jackson Ken Holmes Graham Hoadley A Stewart Whitley Jan Dodgeon Angela Meadows Jane Cullingworth Randeep KulshresthaBringing together conventional contrast media studies, computed tomography, ultrasound, magnetic resonance imaging, radionuclide imaging including hybrid imaging using SPECT-CT and PET-CT, DXA studies and digital interventional procedures into one volume, this definitive book is the essential source of information on the use and application of these imaging modalities in radiography. Taking a systemic anatomical approach, carefully designed to be clear and consistent throughout and mirroring that in the popular and established textbook Clark’s Positioning in Radiography, each chapter is highly illustrated and contains sections detailing anatomy, pathologic considerations, procedure methodology, and an evaluation of recommended imaging modalities. Reflecting the latest clinical imaging pathways and referral guidelines including IR(ME)R 2017, the Map of Medicine and RCR iRefer (8E), Clark’s Diagnostic Imaging Procedures will quickly become established as the standard textbook for students of radiography and radiographer assistant trainees and an invaluable desk reference for practising radiologists.
