  • Platonov studies continue to revolve around questions of resistance. Each article in this special section begins by articulating the parameters of a paradigm and then shows how Andrei Platonov distorts or subverts the model in significant ways. The author otDzhan remains an unruly figure, impatient with the stereotypes that nonetheless fuel his work, if only primarily through opposition. Once, the question was how to determine Platonov's attitude toward Soviet communism. Now that our understanding of both Platonov's oeuvre and Soviet culture has become richer and more complex, the issue of resistance remains but it has gained more facets.

  • Written by practising physicians specializing in pediatric hematology, neonatology, immunology, pediatric infectious disease and transfusion medicine, this is a practical guide to the pathogenesis, recognition and management of hematologic problems in the neonate. The focus is on clinical issues encountered by pediatric specialists, and there are chapters devoted to disorders of leukocytes, platelets, procoagulant and anticoagulant proteins, and disorders of red blood cells. Neonatal transfusion, malignant disorders in the newborn, neonatal hemoglobinopathy screening, harvesting and storage of umbilical cord stem cells are also covered, and practical approaches to diagnosis and treatment given.

  • Summary

    It is an honor to be invited to write a foreword to this book. I know my friend and late colleague Dr Frank A. Oski, with whom I coauthored three editions of the monograph Hematology of the Newborn from 1966 to 1982, would echo this sentiment. And he would be delighted that his former fellows Drs Werner and de Alarcón shared our interest in the importance of this subject sufficiently to bring it up to date in an expanded textbook rich with information of great scientific and practical value.

    As expected, there have been many important advances in the field of neonatal hematology in the past 20 years – new diseases, new ways of diagnosing, treating, and preventing old diseases. These are covered thoroughly in the chapters written by the authors of this book, each chosen carefully by the editors for his or her expert knowledge and experience.

    With progress, diseases that virtually established neonatal hematology as a distinct discipline have largely come under control, reducing the space needs for describing them. There is no greater example of this than in the section devoted here to hemolytic disease of the fetus and newborn (formerly referred to as erythroblastosis fetalis), one that represented the largest chapter in our earlier monograph. All this resulted from the successful implementation in 1968 of Rh immunoglobulin to prevent Rh alloimmunization and hemolytic disease of the newborn.

  • "Therefore," I said, somewhat bewildered, "we would have to eat again from the Tree of Knowledge in order to return to the state of innocence?"

    "Quite right," he answered. "And that's the last chapter in the history of the world."

    Heinrich von Kleist, "On the Marionette Theatre"

    On the morning of 11 May 1876, a young seamstress pushed her stepdaughter out the window of their Petersburg apartment. The apparent reason for this attempted infanticide (miraculously, the child survived her four-story plunge) was Ekaterina Kornilova's anger at her husband and jealousy of his deceased first wife. The case would seem undistinguished in its sordidness were it not for Fedor Dostoevskii's adoption of the affair as a cause celebre. Although he originally attacked Kornilova's defenders, Dostoevskii later defended her as well when he learned that Kornilova had been pregnant at the time of the attempted murder.
