Dear library staff,

Can you please purchase this newly published book, for use in the course Designing Sustainable Systems (ENVM7527). I think two copies would be ideal, as the new coordinator will wish to read it, it is prescribed for all students (n=10) and one student will need to do an assignment on it.

Leveson, N. 2011, Engineering a safer world: Systems thinking applied to safety, The MIT Press, Cambridge, Massachusetts.

Thanks.

After a year of struggling with 'summon' and disliking it, I have finally learned to use it effectively and it's great! I'd like to say a big thank you to the library for providing this. It has been extremely useful in my final year research so far and I have been using the summon feature much more than the catalog feature. I think the library is finally becoming a true cybrary. Thank you and well done!

Thank you for this wonderful service! I am lucky enough to have gotten a locker for this semester and it will be so great to have a base camp while on campus.

I like to recommend this text as a helpful tool to assist Master musculoskeletal students in developing advanced knowledge in manual therapy.

Combined Movement Theory - Rational Mobilization and Manipulation of the Vertebral Column - By Christopher McCarthy, PhD, MCSP, MMACP

This book expands on the widely used concept of combined movements and incorporates both grade IV- manipulative thrust techniques and muscle energy / proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation techniques. The book is the first to include chapters on cervical artery dysfunction (VBI) and upper cervical instability with clinical chapters on the regional management of spinal dysfunction. The first section of the book discusses the underlying theoretical concepts underpinning combined movements theory and manipulation, with the second section offering a comprehensive manual of tests and treatments for each region of the spine. Revision multiple choice tests are at the ends of the theoretical chapters.

Thanks for consideration.

I can't seem to access Medical Journal of Australia anymore. The site has been updated and no longer accepts the UQ membership

Hi,
Would it be at all possible to get the Journal of Taphonomy into the collection. I really need articles from this publication for my PhD research and it neither available on-line or in paper format.

Hi there, this would be a very useful book for my research, and for many looking at urban agriculture as a way of addressing critical food security and sustainability issues.
