A biography of the legendary pool player discusses his game against World Champion Ralph Greenleaf at the age of seven, his glory years in pool competitions, and his work as a consultant for such top pool movies as The Hustler.

Stanley Cohen's study of Mods and Rockers in the 1960s was a foundational text both in terms of investigating the workings of subcultural groups and identifying the concept of a 'moral panic' generated by the media, which leads to groups being vilified in the popular imagination, and inhibits rational debate about solutions to the social problems such groups represent. The insights Cohen provides into subculture and mass morality are as relevant today as they were when the book was originally published in 1972, as illustrated by the author's introduction for this new edition, in which he tracks moral panics over the last thirty years, commenting on the demonization of young offenders and asylum seekers and on the News of the World 's 'name and shame' campaign against paedophiles.Revisiting the theory of moral panic and exploring the way in which the concept has been used, this new edition features a select bibliography of key texts for further reading. The third edition of Folk Devils and Moral Panics makes available a valuable and widely recommended text.

The narrative explores the dramatic decline of a once-respected businessman within the mercenary community, revealed through engaging flashbacks. These glimpses into the past uncover the pivotal events tied to the tumultuous union of two families: a Jewish American from New York and a Catholic Latin-American from El Salvador. This unique cultural intersection drives the story, highlighting themes of identity, conflict, and the complexities of personal relationships against a backdrop of unexpected consequences.

Recent advances in computational algorithms, along with the advent of whole slide imaging as a platform for embedding artificial intelligence (AI), are transforming pattern recognition and image interpretation for diagnosis and prognosis. Yet most pathologists have just a passing knowledge of data mining, machine learning, and AI, and little exposure to the vast potential of these powerful new tools for medicine in general and pathology in particular. In <i>Artificial Intelligence and Deep Learning in Pathology</i>, Dr. Stanley Cohen covers the nuts and bolts of all aspects of machine learning, up to and including AI, bringing familiarity and understanding to pathologists at all levels of experience.
