Dermatopathology - Skin Diseases...

Mike Crawford

Dermatopathology is a specialized field of pathology that focuses on the study of skin diseases at a microscopic level. It serves as a bridge between dermatology and pathology, providing critical diagnostic insights into a wide range of cutaneous disorders. Understanding the fundamentals of dermatopathology requires knowledge of skin structure, histopathological techniques, and essential diagnostic tools such as immunohistochemistry. 
The skin is the largest organ of the body, serving as a protective barrier against environmental insults, infections, and physical trauma. It consists of three main layers: the epidermis, dermis, and subcutaneous tissue. The epidermis, primarily composed of keratinocytes, undergoes continuous renewal through a process called keratinization. The dermis provides structural support and houses blood vessels, nerves, and adnexal structures such as hair follicles, sebaceous glands, and sweat glands. The subcutaneous layer, rich in adipose tissue, functions as insulation and a cushion against mechanical forces. Recognizing the normal histological architecture of these layers is essential for identifying pathological alterations.

Shepherd's Sight - A Farming Life

Barbara McLean

A restorative and resonant memoir of a year in the life of an aging shepherd 
 
 
 
For fifty years, Barbara McLean has tended a flock of Border Leicester sheep on her small Ontario farm, Lambsquarters. In Shepherd's Sight she shares the crises, pleasures, and challenges of farm life over the course of a year. Now in her seventies, McLean faces a new problem: how much longer she can continue with the physically taxing work that is her central source of meaning and satisfaction. 
 
 
 
Through her unsentimental gaze, we witness the highs and heartbreaks of delivering and rearing lambs, the shearing and spinning of wool, the wildlife in the woods (and occasionally in the house), and the garden produce moving from seed to harvest to table. Even after half a century on this land, McLean is still making fresh observations, and she shares them in evocative, elegant prose. As she moves through the calendar year, she also reflects on years past, offering a long view on climate, stewardship, and agriculture. 
 
 
 
With its vivid description and absorbing storytelling, Shepherd's Sight offers an unforgettable glimpse of a life lived on the land.
