Product Description

Based on an American Chemical Society Symposium organized by Professors Glenn Seaborg and Oliver Manuel, this volume provides a comprehensive record of different views on this important subject at the end of the 20th century. They have assembled a blend of highly respected experimentalists and theorists from astronomy, geology, meteoritics, planetology and nuclear chemistry and physics to discuss the origin of elements in the solar system. The intent was to include all points of view and let history judge their validity.

Origin of Elements in the Solar System: Implications of Post-1957 Observations Review

Although pricy, this proceedings volume is an essential text for serious students of the chemical structure of the Solar System. Editor Professor Oliver Manuel is himself a key role player in this investigation, and puts into practices a method that is extremely satisfying for the empirical scientist - he weights measurement over theory. As an astronomer, the presentation of these data has been crucial in my understanding of the Solar System, and in the resolution of so-called "anomalies" in solar measurements. Ultimately, I have been able to use this volume and its comprehensive references and citations to draw my own conclusions from arguments on both sides of many contentious issues surrounding our Sun and its family of satellites. This book receives my highest recommendation. It may well be the best few hundred dollars a serious solar scientist could spend.

Product Description

In the past few years there has been the increased recognition that the effects of oxidative stress are not limited to the damage of cellular constituents. There is now evidence that reactive oxygen species (ROS) can alter cell function by acting upon the intermediates, or second messengers, in signal transductions. Such effects on signaling mechanisms probably account for the role of oxidative stress in inflammation, aging, and cancer. This volume brings together internationally recognized researchers in both the major areas covered by the book, oxidative stress and signal transduction. The work is organized in three sections. The first deals with the immediate cellular responses to oxidative stress and the production of second messengers. The second details the connection between second messengers and the gene. The third part looks more closely at the level of the gene.

Oxidative Stress and Signal Transduction Review

Those investigators wondering what does oxidative stress mean to cell function will find in this book a new perspective. Written in an accesible language of basic cell biology, the text covers a broad range of subjects in an clear, orderly manner. Helpful in the formulation of mechanistic hypotheses for those interested in the pathophysiology and pharmacology of inflammation, cancer or aging, among others. The authors include some "big names" but are mostly mid-career and young investigators whose refreshing views, combined with the experience of the editors in the field make the book unusually exciting and meaningful.

Pathological Pain: From Molecular to Clinical Aspects (Novartis Foundation Symposia) Review

Evidence-based practitioners will find excellent state-of-the-art reviews of advances in pathological pain. Even more useful than the brief, to the point reviews of advances being made with research on knockout mice, were the discussions among the experts that ranged from basic science to clinical confirmation. This is a seminal repository of expert opinion on the state of the art on chronic (pathological) pain that every pain specialist should have and recommend to others in the field. Excellent. More, please.

Product Description

This book explains how the internal dynamics of transition have influenced the relationship between Russia and the EU. Taking an holistic approach, the authors present a balanced analysis exploring EU, Russian and US perspectives on the Russian-EU relationship and examine a range of political, economic, business and security issues including the Northern dimension of Russian-EU relations, the Chechen situation, Russian domestic economic policy, trade, the business environment, energy and EU technical assistance. They also address such questions as:

* Will bilateral relations be achieved with a Western or Russian model?
* Who is the main driver of Russian-EU relations?
* Is Russia converging with the EU in terms of business, culture, legal environment and systems?
* Does the Russian-EU link provide a new model for EU external relations?

Perspectives on EU-Russia Relations (Europe and the Nation State) Review

EU and Russia relations are needed more follow-up attentions. Both are also needed to change and to build more confidence and cooperation not just for business, but for real area and global peace. Democracy, human rights and even counterterrorism could not be played as dirty tricks anynmore. That's enought! (Pora) We've had enough! EU will be the United States of Europe someday, and Russia would not be alone forever. So, how to build up long-termed peaceful and friendly relations and not to be split, "Satanized" by the third one (outside of Europe) will be the most important mission. The "Perspectives" is the key point of EU-Russia relations from now on. I'd like to call this book a cornerstone, and strongly recommend to my friends in universities, institutes, academic centers, governments and business chambers, and so on.

Product Description

Formulating a new approach to philosophy which, instead of simply rejecting postmodern thought, tries to assimilate some of its main features, Paul Crowther identifies conceptual links between value, knowledge, personal identity and civilization understood as a process of cumulative advance.
To establish these links, Crowther deploys a mode of analytic philosophy influenced by Cassirer. This approach recontextualizes precisely those aspects of postmodernism which appear, superficially, to be fuel for the relativist fire. This method also enables him to illuminate some of the great practical dangers of the postmodern era - most notably the widespread inability or unwillingness to distinguish between signs and reality. Crowther renews analytic philosophy as a searching form of conceptual and cultural critique that pushes beyond the limits of postmodern thought.
Essential reading for advanced students and academics interested in Twentieth Century Philosophy, Philosophy After Postmodernism will also be of value to scholars working in the fields of Cultural Studies and Sociology.

Philosophy After Postmodernism: Civilized Values and the Scope of Knowledge (Routledge Studies in Twentieth Century Philosophy) Review

Chapters of Philosophy after Postmodernism offer a number of multidimentional philosophical discussions united by Crowther's central objective to present a systematic refutation of cultural relativism which combines analytic philosophy and phenomenology, and in so doing, radically develop both approaches.

Lucky to discover this book, I found in it an amazing combination of qualities which one would think were incompatible. A slim volume, concise format - and a wide range of topics, all explored in depth. This is because every phrase, every word has been selected strictly and carefully - the text of this manuscript is irreducible. And yet the narrative flows, making it hard to put the book down: the reader is instantly involved in a thought provoking discussion with references to the present day burning issues combined with abstract philosophical themes from ontology and epistemology. Despite the complexity of thought and the subtelty of arguments, the book is easy to read - the author does not talk down to you, but engages you in a dialogue navigating between the most complex ideas and straightforward simple examples. The text is rich and vibrant, and very clear - an ultimate example of cutting edge philosophy to excite a demanding contemporary reader.

Phyllanthus Species: Scientific Evaluation and Medicinal Applications (Traditional Herbal Medicines for Modern Times) Review

Just got this book. An excellent book on Phyllanthus sp which describes most of the proerties of this sp. I was looking for a comprhensive review on clinical trials using Phyllanthus and this book has a dedicated chapter on this. The chemistry part is very good with all the structures. Taxonomy and cultivation chapters were very informative. his monograph also has a key to identify various sp. of Phyllanthus sp. Phylogenetic analysis chapter deals with various ways of characterization. All together this is an very good monograph.
