A superb source of reference reviews as well as a concise overview of the functional cross-talk between neurons and glial cells, this book also focuses on microglia and inflammation in the aging brain and in neurological disorders. The scientific spectrum covered by this book is of key interest, and is recognized by the scientific community as a major competitive area with critical implications for human health.
Principles of Addiction provides a solid understanding of the definitional and diagnostic differences between use, abuse, and disorder. It describes in great detail the characteristics of these syndromes and various etiological models. The book's three main sections examine the nature of addiction, including epidemiology, symptoms, and course; alcohol and drug use among adolescents and college students; and detailed descriptions of a wide variety of addictive behaviors and disorders, encompassing not only drugs and alcohol, but caffeine, food, gambling, exercise, sex, work, social networking, and many other areas. This volume is especially important in providing a basic introduction to the f...

"If you or someone you know suffers from Alzheimer’s, I highly recommend this book."—Robb Wolf, New York Times bestselling author "An important and informative text . . . an excellent book."—Dr. David Perlmutter, New York Times bestselling author A revolutionary multi-pronged nutrition and lifestyle intervention to combat Alzheimer’s disease at its roots from Certified Nutrition Specialist Amy Berger Amy Berger’s research shows that Alzheimer’s results from a fuel shortage in the brain: As neurons become unable to harness energy from glucose, they atrophy and die, leading to classic symptoms like memory loss and behavioral changes. This is a revolutionary approach—one that has ...
This volume concerns all aspects of apoptosis from signalling pathways to the therapeutic tools that can be derived from an increasing knowledge about the phenomenon of cell death. Discussed in this volume are cell death and development; mitochondria as regulators of apoptosis; and more.
Mitochondrial Physiology and Vegetal Molecules: Therapeutic potential of natural compounds on mitochondrial health provides a comprehensive overview of mitochondrial physiology throughout the human life span, as well as the effect of molecules of vegetal origin on mitochondrial health. The editor has lined up a team of worldwide experts to cover the most exciting and high-impact advancements of research in this area. This book is structured into two parts that provide a balance of both foundational and applied content. Part I provides an overview of mitochondrial physiology including its structure, dynamics, biogenesis, membranes, DNA transcription, and translation in the mitochondria. Part ...
This book delves into the delicate realm of neurodegenerative illnesses, navigating the vast landscape of molecular targets with care and purpose. Researchers are studying the complex pathways involved in diseases such as Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s, and Huntington’s in order to identify specific molecules that could be targeted for therapy. The present work explores potential methods of intervention by carefully analysing neural circuits, protein misfolding, and genetic predispositions, unravelling the complexities of the human mind by focusing on individual molecular targets. As new findings emerge, reducing the severe consequences of neurodegenerative illnesses becomes increasingly possible, providing optimism for millions of people throughout the world.

A theoretical integration of science and technology studies and social movement studies that finds both common ground and “undone” research. As the fields of social movement studies (SMS) and science and technology studies (STS) have diversified in topical focus, they have moved closer to each other. SMS has turned toward the study of nonstate targets and institutionalized repertoires of action, just as STS has turned to expertise and publics. In Undone Science, David Hess argues that a theoretical integration of core concepts in the two fields is now possible, and he presents just such a synthesis. Hess focuses on industrial transition movements—mobilized counterpublics of activists, ...
