This work provides a case-oriented approach to treatment planning, bridging the gap between conventional textbooks of prosthodontics and basic manuals of denture design. It is divided into two parts. The first reviews basic principles of treatment planning and partial denture designs, and is supported by numerous line diagrams, checklists, questions and summaries which highlight key points. Part Two comprises 14 complete case histories, putting into practice the theory outlined in Part One. For each, the history leads to a series of possible treatment options, based on the patient''s needs and the dentist''s appraisal of their practicality. Each case is illustrated with casts of the patient''s existing dentition, radiographs and results of other investigations such as sialography and CT scans. From these a treatment plan is devised and a denture constructed. In some of the cases, design errors'' are also included for discussion.

An authoritative, revealing, and passionate account of the 1992-93 season -- one of the most tumultuous in NHL history -- by the award-winning writer hailed as "hockey''s Faulkner".

In October 1983 Ken Dryden gave us what was called the best non-fiction book ever written about hockey - The Game. In that same month Roy MacGregor published what was hailed as the best novel ever written about hockey - The Last Season. In 1989 these two writers teamed up to write another extraordinary book: inspired by Ken Dryden''s major CBC-TV series on hockey, Home Game takes us all the way from street hockey to the showdowns between Canada and the Soviets. On publication, Home Game shot to the top of the bestseller lists, establishing itself as must reading for every hockey fan. Not only was this lavish book with over 95 full-colour photographs popular among ordinary Canadians: book reviewers loved it.
