Reconstruction de lavant-pied = Forefoot reconstruction
Since 1991 in France, Louis Samuel Barouk and his team, including Pierre Barouk, have contributed to the development of techniques that have significantly improved the postoperative period and outcomes. These include scarf osteotomy, big toe osteotomy, Weil osteotomies of the lateral metatarsals, and the development of the proximal release system for the gastrocnemius muscles. In parallel, the authors have developed implants and instrumentation specific to this forefoot surgery. The authors seek to share their passion for forefoot surgery and its continuous improvement, as the mission of this orthopedic specialty is as much about correcting deformities and improving footwear as it is about aesthetics.
Readings in Public Choice and Constitutional Political Economy
Public choice is the study of behavior at the intersection of economics and political science. Since the pioneering work of Duncan Black in the 1940s, public choice has developed a rich literature, drawing from such related perspectives as history, philosophy, law, and sociology, to analyze political decision making (by citizen-voters, elected officials, bureaucratic administrators, lobbyists, and other "rational" actors) in social and economic context, with an emphasis on identifying differences between individual goals and collective outcomes. Constitutional political economy provides important insights into the relationship between effective constitutions and the behavior of ordinary political markets.

Psychological Processes in International Negotiation : Theoretical and Practical Perspectives
a unique collaboration between experts in cognitive psychotherapy and political science, Psychological Processes in International Negotiations provides such a resource. Drawing on a wide range of theory and data, from neuroscientific findings and historical events to Albert Ellis’ rational-emotive model of behavior to attachment and meta-cognitive functions, the book explains how the negotiation process works, under both adverse and optimum conditions. The authors identify psychological elements (in participants and in negotiators themselves) that have the greatest effect on negotiation outcomes, including group identity and groupthink, egocentrism, emotional awareness and competence, and the various interpersonal and communication skills, as well as steps readers can take to improve their performance. With this book, negotiators have the tools to come to clear judgments and creative, non-aggressive solutions.

Prevention, Detection and Response to Nuclear and Radiological Threats
The primary goal of any counter-terrorism effort is to prevent an attack as early in the development stages as possible. Many current approaches employed to prevent a nuclear/radiological attack rely upon detection of materials. Another general category of threat reduction involves preventing acquisition or utilization of the materials. Therefore while the organizers and participants of this meeting recognize that the Nuclear / Radiological threats is extremely broad.The book can serve as a tool for communicating the outcomes of the workshop not only to the multi-national scientific and technical communities engaged in combating nuclear/ radiological terrorism, but also to those working at governmental and policy levels whose actions affect the directions the science takes and how the technology is incorporated into country-specific national systems for combating nuclear/radiological terrorism.
Preferences and Procedures : European Union Legislative Decision-Making

Pharma technology
Embedding technology in the pharmacy can unlock the abilities of pharmacists and technicians to help care for patients, improving their job satisfaction and health outcomes for the patient. With technology, pharmacists and technicians can—and should—be full members of the patient’s care team, one of embedding technology in pharmacy examples are embedding VR into the academic medical education process, and digitalizing patient’s information into a health card. Virtual reality (VR) is a simulated experience that can be similar to or completely different from the real world. Applications of virtual reality include entertainment (particularly video games), education (such as medical or military training) and business (such as virtual meetings). Other distinct types of VR-style technology include augmented reality and mixed reality, sometimes referred to as extended reality or XR.
Personalized medicine
The introduction of personalized medicine (PM) has been a milestone in the history of medical therapy, because it has revolutionized the previous approach of treating the disease with that of treating the patient. It is known today that diseases can occur in different genetic variants, making specific treatments of proven efficacy necessary for a given endotype. There is a growing attention towards personalized medicine. This is led by a fundamental shift from the ‘one size fits all’.. (Every year in the USA 2 million people die due to adverse drug effects, Drug efficacy is only in 60 % of the population - Other 40 % have poor drug effects or no effect at all ) paradigm for treatment of patients with conditions or predisposition to diseases, to one that embraces novel approaches, such as tailored target therapies, to achieve the best possible outcomes.
