Overview: Calcium Entry Blockers (CEBs) are a new class of drugs which have been pushing back the frontiers of science and medicine for almost two decades. This report reviews some of the wealth of chemical, biological and clinical data describing the discovery and development of these compounds. The scientific importance, therapeutic benefit and marketing potential of these compounds have caused an explosion of scientific literature describing their effects in many preclinical and clinical settings. The definitional characteristics of these compounds suggest a certain predictability of their

Overview: This book addresses works of the European Renaissance as they relate both to the world of their origins and to a modern culture that turns to the early moderns for methodological provocation and renewal. It charts the most important developments in the field since the turn towards cultural and ideological features of the Renaissance imagination.978-1-349-28445-0978-0-230-22844-3

Overview: Reviews the influence of trace elements in brain development and function.Examines the role of trace elements in the pathogenesis of CNS diseases.Discusses dyshomeostasis of trace elements and genomic.This book reviews the role of trace elements in brain development, function, metabolism, and neurodegenerative disorders. It explores the molecular mechanisms of the effects of trace elements on  metabolic pathways, mitochondrial nutrients, neurodegeneration, Central Nervous System (CNS) disorders, cell signaling, and neuronal functions. The book also discusses transport mechanisms of t

Overview: Few historical events have inspired so much controversy and debate as the French Revolution. The origins, nature and effects of the Revolution have been the themes of a voluminous literature, especially since the 1950s, and there has been sharp disagreement among historians about them.This book discusses the present state of the controversy and provides detailed suggestions for further reading. Blanning explains the different interpretations advanced by Marxist, revisionist and post-revisionist historians in order to provide students with access to the literature and to help them to

Overview: Topical, international problems in stabilisation policy, exchange rate mechanisms, trade policy and taxation * Theoretical analysis with empirical applications, public choice approach applied to tradeAss a f R a z i nand Hans-Jiirgen Vosgerau The eight chapters of this volume have been grouped into two parts. Part A of contains chapters which are mainly monetary in character, whereas real aspects international economics are treated in Part B. It goes without saying that this is only a device for structuring the field. In substance most chapters reveal the close connections between re

Overview: Over the past two years, the National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism (NIAAA) has begun a series of symposia to highlight the need for more integrative re­ search to understand how ethanol alters behavior. Much of the research to date has dealt either at the molecular level or has been whole animal studies. More studies are needed to build our base of knowledge between these two extremes by focusing more on cellular and network levels of organization. To begin this focus on the intermediate steps in this scheme, the NIAAA presented a satellite symposium entitled "Approaches

Overview: Explores various types of thoracic cancer in detail.Includes useful illustrations and artwork.Features an easy-to-consult layout.This book highlights the differences, in terms of neoplastic dissemination pathways, between various types of thoracic cancers. It presents and discusses a comprehensive schematic overview of tumors of the lung parenchyma, of the mediastinum, of the pleura, and of the chest wall. For each tumor, it details the local spread and the lymphatic and vascular dissemination, and it describes the challenging staging of lung tumors with mutations. Illustrations and

Overview: Provides a theoretically coherent and empirically rich interpretive framework.Helps readers grasp the key determinants of a nation’s economic performance.Appeals to public policymakers, as well as acaThis book revisits the historically different paths to economic development that Spain, the Netherlands, Great Britain and the United States followed at different time periods since the early modern period. Addressing the questions of how economic growth came about in these four countries and why sustained economic growth was achieved only by the two latter economic powers - Great Britai

Overview: External challenges, strategic threats, and war have shaped the course of modern British history. This volume examines how Britain mobilized to meet these challenges and how developments in the constitution, state, public sphere, and economy were a response to foreign policy issues from the Restoration to the rise of New Labour.978-1-349-36547-0978-0-230-28962-8

It emphasizes the political challenges in developing a set of long-term national strategies to ensure speedy, safe and secure nuclear energy development.978-1-349-31034-0978-0-230-29053-2Series ISSN 2947-8561 Series E-ISSN 2947-857X

Overview: This thesis addresses important research gaps in the literature on the marketing-finance interface. While there have been considerable research activities on marketing-finance topics such as marketing assets or marketing metrics, only few scholars have looked at the organizational interface between marketing and finance. We know surprisingly little about how marketing, sales, and finance units actually work together within organizations.In his PhD thesis Dirk Weissbrich chooses a qualitative research design to gain insight into this unknown organizational phenomenon. Drawing on 78 fa

Overview: Details the role of TGF- ß in cancer treatment and therapy, including its role in development and progression of several different cancers.Conveniently divided into three easy-to-follow parts.CompanioTransforming Growth Factor-B in Cancer Therapy, Volume II: Cancer Treatment and Therapy The chapters in this volume confer an abundance of knowledge about the current state ofour understanding oftransforming growth factor-B (TGF-B) in cancer treatment and therapy. Unlike several more traditional positive polypeptide growth factors that stim­ ulate cellular proliferation, the prototypical

Overview: Comprehensively covers major aspects of acupuncture treatment.Provides new information on optimal manipulation parameters of acupuncture and electroacupuncture.Summarizes the current understanding of .Written by many scientists and clinicians from China, USA, Canada and other countries, this monograph discusses translational research on acupuncture. Besides general topics on acupuncture practice (e.g., different styles and techniques of acupuncture), topics include some refractory diseases such as chronic fatigue syndrome, Parkinson’s disease, cardiovascular dysfunction, chronic pain

Overview: It is easy to make anecdotal claims for the efficacy of new forms of treatment based on the short term results in a small number of patients. Many authors have done this for endoscopic laser therapy in the gastrointestinal tract. It is very much more difficult to carry out a comprehensive assessment of the short and long term effects of new techniques and to compare these with the results of alternative treatments for the same diseases. This book, from one of the world‘s leading departments of gastroenterology, describes and analyses the largest series of patients yet reported from o

Overview: Heat treatment of metallic alloys constitutes an important step within the production process. The heat treatment process itself is considered as a cycle of heating the workpieces to a predetermined temperature, keeping them at this temperature for the time period required, and cooling them to room temperature in an appropriate way. The process of heating and keeping workpieces at the required temperature is now­ adays weil mastered and mostly automatized. The process of cooling or quenching which determines actually the resulting properties, is handicapped with many physical and tec
