Interact with the 3D anatomy atlas of the<br />

upper limbs, including the shoulder, elbow,<br />

wrist and hand. The easy to use functions<br />

allow you to peel away layers of anatomy<br />

from skin to bone, rotate the model 360<br />

degree and view and identify any<br />

anatomical structure. All structures have<br />

ac<strong>com</strong>panying text – ideal as a quick<br />

reference and atlas.<br />

The innovative imaging section allows you<br />

to <strong>com</strong>pare the labeled cross sectional<br />

anatomy with <strong>com</strong>parable ultrasound<br />

scans and MRIs in a variety of planes and<br />

slices. The position of the ultrasound<br />

transducer is indicated on the anatomy<br />

cross section and is linked to the<br />

correlating ultrasound image which shows<br />

in the right viewing panel. Key structures<br />

are labeled on the cross sections and on<br />

the corresponding ultrasound image.<br />

Clicking on the transducer position will link<br />

to text covering correct technique and<br />

examples of <strong>com</strong>monly presenting<br />

conditions for the structures scanned<br />

using that transducer position. You can<br />

also correlate the 3D cross sections with<br />

labeled MRI scans in the axial, coronal<br />

and sagittal planes.<br />

The extensive clinical topics section has<br />

related text and links to<br />

clinical/pathological examples covering<br />

over 40 clinical topics including bursitis,<br />

tendon tears, ruptures, muscle tears,<br />

fractures, cysts, tumors and many more<br />

JAMES SALTER: A SPORT<br />

AND A PASTIME<br />

This 54-minute documentary traces the<br />

writer James Salter's lifelong love affair<br />

with France, unforgettably expressed in<br />

his 1967 masterpiece, A Sport and a<br />

Pastime.<br />

The novel, a transcendent examination of<br />

sexual desire, follows an ill-fated love<br />

affair between a Yale dropout and a young<br />

French girl, played out in the villages of<br />

Burgundy in the 1960s.<br />

"Its spirit," The Washington Post wrote, " --<br />

the ache and artistry of Scott Fitzgerald<br />

filtered through the cool sensibility of<br />

Flaubert or James -- evokes France,<br />

missed opportunities, all the fugitive<br />

beauty of youth."<br />

Salter, who began a career as a fighter<br />

pilot before resigning to be<strong>com</strong>e a writer,<br />

has been praised as a contemporary<br />

American master by Saul Bellow, Graham<br />

Greene, and Susan Sontag, among<br />

others.<br />

The film captures the great purity of<br />

Salter's prose and the essence of his<br />

power to evoke the erotic. Sublime footage<br />

of provincial France and fragments of the<br />

novel itself, read by the author Reynolds<br />

Price, are intercut with photographs by<br />

Ralph Gibson and conversations with<br />

writers, editors, and Robert Redford, for<br />

whom Salter wrote the screenplay,<br />

Downhill Racer.<br />

Salter's own reflections on his writing and<br />

life offer rich insights for reader and writer<br />

alike. James Salter: A Sport and a Pastime<br />

is a luminous depiction of the making of a<br />

writer and the genesis of a classic novel.<br />

DESERTS: GLOBAL<br />

ENVIRONMENTS<br />

Deserts occupy more area of the surface<br />

of our planet than any other type of<br />

landscape. They occur in all climatic<br />

zones including the hottest and coldest<br />

locations on Earth. This program<br />

examines deserts around the world,<br />

explaining why they exist and the different<br />

climate drivers at work in their formation<br />

and physical characteristics. It also covers<br />

human life in deserts and the various ways<br />

in which people adapt to living in a dry<br />

environment, and their impact on fragile<br />

desert ecosystems. It features a range of<br />

imagery of different deserts around the<br />

world, and uses graphics to clearly explain<br />

the natural processes at work.<br />
