Overview: Perinatal origins of adult diseases.Adult diseases as low-grade systemic inflammatory conditions.Inflammation as the basis of obesity, insulin resistance, metabolic syndrome and cancer.Imbalance in thThe book describes how the balance between pro- and anti-inflammatory molecules is related to health and disease. It is suggested that many diseases are initiated and their progress is influenced by inflammatory molecules and a decrease in the production and/or action of anti-inflammatory molecules and this imbalance between pro- and anti-inflammatory molecules seems to have been initiat

Overview: Based on a flagship research project for the Joseph Rowntree Foundation‘s Immigration and Inclusion programme, this book argues that social cohesion is achieved through people (new arrivals as well as the long-term settled) being able to resolve the conflicts and tensions within their day-to-day lives in ways that they find positive and viable.978-1-349-31847-6978-1-137-01517-4Series ISSN 2947-7786 Series E-ISSN 2947-7794
