Photoacoustic Imaging and Spectroscopy is a multiauthored reference
book that presents an advanced series of disparate chapters
on the mathematical foundations, instrumentation, and applications
of photoacoustic and thermoacoustic imaging. Lihong Wang, an
eminent author, educator, scientist, and leader in the field of photoacoustic
imaging and spectroscopy, is the editor of this book. Clearly
this field is extremely active as evidenced by the diversity, the
scope, and the quality of the field’s published literature. Nevertheless,
I was surprised to read the back cover, which I think
is overreaching with the claim that photoacoustics may make
as dynamic a contribution to modern medicine as the discovery
of the x ray once did. While this may be a “typical”
overstatement by the publisher’s marketing team, it should be
noted that within one year of the discovery of x rays there
were more than one thousand publications related to the topic

How Yoga Masters Experience Mindfulness
No full textabstract: This study addressed the questions: What is the experience of mindfulness by yoga masters? How can such experiences inform the counseling intervention of mindfulness? In a qualitative study, individuals who held the minimum credentials E-RYT 200 (i.e., Experienced Registered Yoga Teacher 200 Hour) were interviewed. The verbatim interviews were analyzed using the phenomenological approach. Two categories of themes emerged describing mindfulness as a state of being and a practice of awareness. The common themes describing mindfulness as a state of being include: conscious awareness, feeling bliss, the present moment, interconnectedness, and compassionate evolution. The common themes describing mindfulness as a practice of awareness include: waking the body, balanced practice, the power of pranayama, refining abilities, obstacles to awareness, a holistic practice, and external supports. The results of this study suggest that mindfulness is multifaceted and ephemeral; however, with regular practice it becomes more consistently maintained. As a practice of awareness, mindfulness develops through a hierarchy of techniques moving from the external to the internal including both self and other. Discussion focuses on how these experiences can be applied in counseling interventions.Dissertation/ThesisM.C. Counseling 201
