Providing practical, visually oriented guidance on the benefits of botulinum toxin in a wide variety of disorders, some new and unexpected, this new edition of Manual of Botulinum Toxin Therapy is fully updated in scope and detail. Chapters discuss the pathophysiology of each condition, summarizing the rationale for botulinum toxin, and describing the injection approach. Clear illustrations of the injection sites are included, using a 'clinician's eye' perspective, which allows physicians to readily identify anatomical landmarks and approach angles for injection. Dosing tables for available toxin formulations are included. The Manual covers cosmetic treatment of the upper and lower face, as well as aesthetic smile correction. Extensive guidance on how to use ultrasound and how cadaveric dissections can assist localization and targeting of injections is provided. Designed for teaching and bedside guidance, the Manual is useful to a diverse range of clinicians looking to use botulinum toxin in their practice.

How a woman-led citizens' group beat a Southern political machine by enlisting federal bureaucrats and judges to protect their neighborhood from unchecked economic development This social history of local political activism tells the story of the decades-long fight to save Green Springs, Virginia, illuminating the economic tradeoffs of protecting the environment, the origins of NIMBYism, the changing nature of local control, and the surprising power of history to advance public policy. Rae Ely faced long odds when she launched a campaign in 1970 to stop a prison, then a strip mine, in Green Springs. The local political machine supported both projects, promising jobs for impoverished Louisa County, Virginia. But Ely and her allies prevailed by repurposing the same tactics used by the Civil Rights movement-the appeal to federal agencies and courts to circumvent local control-and by using new historical interpretations to create the first rural National Historic Landmark District. The Green Springs protesters fought to preserve the historic character of their neighborhood and the surrounding environment in a quest that epitomized the conflict in late twentieth-century America between unbridled economic development for all and protecting the quality of life for an economically privileged few. Ely's tactics are now used by neighborhood groups across the nation, even if they have been applied in ways she never intended: to resist any form of development.
