    "[Second Thoughts on Capitalism and the State is a] profoundly reflective book shows a pathway forward for academics and activists alike who are stymied by the disconnect between deep critical scholarship and emancipatory social change, yet who will still not give up the good fight."

A Guide to Type 1 Diabetes Management, Technology, and Everything Else You Need to Know

In just a decade, Type 1 diabetes management has evolved, and advanced technology has become more widely available as part of routine self-management. This book fills a gap in discussing the complexities of emerging diabetes technology such as insulin pumps, closed-loop systems and continuous glucose monitoring. It also provides essential resources and advice to enable successful self-management of Type 1 diabetes.
