Book Synopsis The Biology of Gastric Cancers by : Timothy Wang
Download or read book The Biology of Gastric Cancers written by Timothy Wang and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2009-02-25 with total page 654 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As someone who has spent nearly half his life wondering about the relationship between Helicobacter and gastric cancer, I find this textbook on the subject exciting and timely. In fact, I am not aware of any other volume that has been able to distil so much new knowledge into such a comprehensive account of a poorly understood field. Taking my own view, as a scientist placed in the middle of the spectrum between basic science and clinical medicine, I can see that the editors, Jim Fox, Andy Giraud, and Timothy Wang, provide a broad mix of expertise, which ensures that the subject is treated with the right balance. From clinicopathologic observations in humans, to epidemiology, through animal models, to molecular and cell biology, this team has hit the mark for most readers. Fox is a well-known leader in animal models with broad expertise. He pioneered the field with observations on Helicobacter species in animals, from the time when only one spiral gastric bac- rium was known, “Campylobacter pyloridis. ” Fox partners with Wang, whose team recently announced a dramatic advance in the field of carcinogenesis—the obser- tion that bone marrow–derived stem cells participate in the changes that become cancer. To this nice mix has been added Andy Giraud from my own country, who brings to the table some remarkable genetic models of gastric cancer based on alterations in the gp130/stat3-signaling pathway.
Book Synopsis Remaking the World by : Pamela J. Stewart
Download or read book Remaking the World written by Pamela J. Stewart and published by Smithsonian Institution. This book was released on 2014-06-03 with total page 245 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Drawing on both their own fieldwork from 1991 to 1999 and older written sources, Stewart and Strathern explore how the Duna have remade their rituals and associated myths in response to the outside influences of government, Christianity, and large-scale economic development, specifically mining and oil prospecting. The authors provide in-depth ethnographic materials on the Duna and present many detailed descriptions of ritual practices that have been abandoned. Remaking the World is a timely contribution to the literature on agency and the making of cultural identity by indigenous peoples facing economic, social, and political change.

Book Synopsis Biology of Brain Dysfunction by : Gerald E. Gaull
Download or read book Biology of Brain Dysfunction written by Gerald E. Gaull and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 493 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The growth of neurochemistry. molecular biology, and biochemical genetics has led to a burgeoning of new information relevant to the pathogenesis of brain dysfunction. This explosion of exciting new information is crying out for collation and meaningful synthesis. In its totality, it defies systematic summa tion, and, of course, no one author can cope. Thus invitations for contributions were given to various experts in areas which are under active investigation, of current neurological interest, and pregnant. Although this project is relatively comprehensive, by dint of size. other topics might have been included; the selection was solely my responsibility. I believe systematic summation a virtual impossibility-indeed, hardly worth the effort. The attempt to assemble all of the sections involved in a large treatise with multiple authors inevitably results in untoward delays due to the difference in the rate at which various authors work. Therefore, the following strategy has been adopted: multiple small volumes and a relatively flexible format, with publication in order of receipt and as soon as enough chapters are assembled to make publication practical and economical. In this way, the time lag between the ideas and their emergence in print is the shortest.
Book Synopsis Amphibian and Reptile Adaptations to the Environment by : Denis Vieira de Andrade
Download or read book Amphibian and Reptile Adaptations to the Environment written by Denis Vieira de Andrade and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2017-12-19 with total page 372 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Despite their diversity, amphibians and reptiles share many physiological traits, such as their dependence on external heat sources for body temperature regulation, that are of pivotal importance to their ability to cope with the environment. Considerable variation in physiological capabilities exists in these groups and often can be related to seasonal and geographic differences in environmental parameters. This book provides a comprehensive and integrative view of the interplay between physiology and behavior in amphibians and reptiles, leading to a better understanding of the subject. The book covers topics that have recently been in the spotlight for scientific research on the physiology, behavior, and conservation of amphibians and reptiles. It brings together recent information from a range of disciplines that address critical topics for understanding their biology. As these studies are scattered across articles in specialized journals, this book provides a single and expanded source summarizing such advancements. Amphibian and Reptile Adaptations to the Environment: Interplay Between Physiology and Behavior maintains a solid scientific basis for the biological topics covered. However, it presents the material in a clear and direct manner so that it is accessible even to non-biologists interested in the basic biology, behavior, and ecology of these animals as well as how these elements are connected to their conservation.
Book Synopsis The Excavations at Ismant al-Kharab by : Carlo Rindi Nuzzolo
Download or read book The Excavations at Ismant al-Kharab written by Carlo Rindi Nuzzolo and published by Oxbow Books. This book was released on 2023-01-24 with total page 675 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excavations by the Dakhleh Oasis Project at Ismant al-Kharab, ancient Kellis in the Dakhleh Oasis, Egypt, revealed the presence of an extensive necropolis dating to the Roman Period, with hundreds of rock-cut tombs containing multiple burials. Termed the Kellis 1 Cemetery, it yielded a range of artifacts and many of the individuals were provided with elaborately decorated cartonnage coverings. This is the largest collection of such material yet discovered in Dakhleh. This book presents a detailed analysis of the entire corpus of cartonnage found at Kellis in a securely excavated context. These objects, which include mummy masks, foot-cases, and full body covers, were part of the burial accoutrements of the wealthier residents of the village. Stylistic and digital investigation of the artifacts suggests a well-defined craft production, with the presence of multiple groups of craftsmen using specific manufacturing techniques and local traits in their iconographic repertoire. The scale of evidence demonstrates that Kellis was a vibrant community with a dynamic funerary production in contact with nearby areas. Comparison with finds from the neighboring Oasis of Kharga, as well as with artifacts in museums collections and from the antiquities market, suggest a complex network of skilled craftsmen throughout the region. This is the first comprehensive study of the material. It has been studied in person by the author in the field enabling a detailed appraisal of the items, whether intact or fragmentary. It builds on recent research addressing regionalism and craftsmanship, and constitutes one of the main sources to investigate issues of permanence and change in the indigenous funerary customs of the area.
Book Synopsis The Un-Walked Mile by : Abisai Temba
Download or read book The Un-Walked Mile written by Abisai Temba and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2020-01-29 with total page 245 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a result of long time research work about the origin of the Wa-Shaka people of Kilimanjaro Mountain area. The Wa-Shaka are known to have until now lived in Kilimanjaro for many hundreds of years. Till as late as now there is nobody who knows exactly who those people are, how they got to the Kilimanjaro Mountain area, from where they came from, or the factors that pushed from their places of origin to this Mountain area. A lot of attempts have made to get answers to the questions, but results were not encouraging. However, findings from this research work has shown that most past efforts have started from wrong premises, hence the failure before getting to any meaningful stage .However, as we read this book we will discover why past efforts have failed; we will be able to see a step by step, approach taken towards getting to the core problem identification, we will see the data collection process, the origin and destination process and ultimately the achievements realized. Walking the path has been quite a tough an achievement which has been realized only through this investigative work-hence, “The Un-walked Mile”
