The idea that the microbial communities within the GI tract have a profound influence on general human health actually originated with Russian scientist Elie Metchnikov at the turn of the last century Also known as the “father of immunology”, Metchnikov believed that putrefactive bacteria in the gut were responsible for enhancing the aging ожцбщ process He theorized that ingestion of healthy bacteria found in fermented foods could counteract toxic bacteria and was the key to good health His theories concerning good bacteria and health can be found in his treatise “The Prolongation of Life: Optimistic Studies” These writings prompted Japanese scientist Minoru Shirota to begin investigation of how fermentative bacteria improve health He succeeded in isolating a strain of Lactobacillus that could survive passage through the intestine, while promoting a healthy balance of microbes The “Shirota strain” is still used today in the fermented beverage Yakult It is clear from a commercial standpoint that these ideas have inspired the development of a probiotic industry, which has expanded greatly in the U S over the past 5-10 years Likewise, scientific studies investigating the microbiota and the immune system have increased significantly in recent years This increase is research is also due to advances in technologies that enable the investigation of large microbial communities, a resurgence in gnotobiotic animal research, and improved methods for molecular analysis of probiotic bacterial species Our interest in this area stems from our laboratory observations indicating that antibiotics and fungi can skew microbiota composition and systemic immune responses Our initial base of references upon which to develop further hypotheses concerning the mechanisms involved in microbiota regulation of immune responses was limited However, in presenting the research at national scientific meetings and at universities across the country, the feedback and interest were overwhelming It became clear that a book dedicated to current trends in investigating the GI microbiota was warranted Dissection of the relationship between the microbiota and the immune system is currently being approached from a variety of angles that we have sought to incorporate into this book This book opens with two general reference chapters, which provide an overview of current knowledge of gastrointestinal immunology and the commensal microbiology of the gut Next are two chapters dedicated to current methodologies used to investigate the microbiota and host: molecular analysis of microbial diversity and gnotobiotic research Both positive and negative interactions between the microbiota and the immune system can take place in the gut, with chapters dedicated to probiotics and intestinal diseases associated with unhealthy microbiota Environmental factors play an enormous role in shaping the microbiota composition Host, microbial, and dietary factors take part in a complex interplay, which provides many distinct and diverse research subjects We have included a chapter discussing diet, functional foods, and prebiotics, which are dietary supplements used to specifically enhance the growth of beneficial members of the microbiota Several laboratories are investigating how the different members of the microbiota communicate with each other and with the immune system A chapter reviewing how bacteria sense and respond to signaling compounds in the gut environment provides insight into the signal transduction pathways that mediate interactions between the host and microbiota A highly detailed and well-investigated model of bacterial-host symbiosis provides an immense amount of background and insight for the developing field of host-microbiota studies We have included a chapter reviewing the unique interactions that take place in a non-mammalian system, the Squid-Vibrio model Finally, we close the book with two chapters outlining current hypotheses concerned with redefining our understanding of the relationship between microbes, disease, and the basic mechanisms of immune system function.  2008 г Твердый переплет, 170 стр ISBN 0387095497.

Hunter-Gatherer Archaeology of the Colorado High Country offers data on 8,000 years of cultural change across a wide area of western Colorado and updates archaeological methodology in the mountain West Synthesizing research from several important, previously neglected sites, the book anchors its findings in a massive body of data that Mark ожцев Stiger gathered over eight years at Tenderfoot--a large lithic-scatter site once categorized as insignificant Advances in spatial analysis, theoretical approaches, and excavation methods have allowed lithic-scatter sites, once considered less revealing than intact structures and similar sites, to yield startlingly rich cultural evidence Presenting artifactual data that reflects changes in houses, game drives, fire pits, stone tools, and debitage, Stiger explains the cultural sequence in the Upper Gunnison Basin and its connections to changes across the West ?He relates environmental and cultural changes, relying on paleoenvironmental evidence, changes in floral and faunal usage patterns, and data recovered in multi-year, repetitive surface collections ?An overview and critique of past research in the region complements discussion of the advantages of horizontally extensive block excavations and other contemporary ways of excavating and analyzing surface sites Stiger's findings hold promise for future research, as high-altitude surface sites are common, under-researched, and relatively well-preserved The advances in archaeological method and theory that enabled Stiger's outstanding results in the Upper Gunnison Basin will allow many other Western sites to yield fascinating evidence.  2008 г Мягкая обложка, 350 стр ISBN 0870819100.

The first mission to Mars raises the question: How will a permanent base on Mars be established? Although this is some time ahead, the opportunities and challenges posed by Mars Base One are already clear: the great distance from Earth; the necessity for self sufficiency; the challenges of long term living on Mars; how to establish a two way traffic ожцеж between the planets; minimise the cost of maintenance from Earth; and importantly, keep political support over a long period These are all generic challenges with which we are familiar, or to which there are familiar and well tried solutions for terrestrial bases and colonies To translate these solutions to the Mars base requires the application of known science and engineering Focusing on the near future, the theme of the book will be how to establish a base on Mars and maintain it with minimum cost and risk as well as examining future life in the base, what colonists will do there, the possibilities of trade and export, legal issues, human issues, birth, life, and death on Mars.  2008 г Мягкая обложка, 300 стр ISBN 038773452X.

Electrocardiography is one of the most common investigations performed by physicians, surgeons, general practitioners, nursing staff and paramedics For cardiologists or those who read ECGs every day, pattern recognition in ECGs can become fairly straightforward; for most others even basic ECGs can present problems If you are a non-expert, ожцжъ a trainee, or simply lack confidence in reliably interpreting ECGs, Making Sense of the ECG is designed for you Find answers to the following important questions: How do I interpret this ECG? Are these abnormalities significant? How do I distinguish between VT and SVT? Has this patient had a myocardial infarction? How do I measure a QT interval? Should I refer this patient to a cardiologist? Or, simply, what should I do next?.  2008 г Мягкая обложка, 304 стр ISBN 0340946881.

Animal ecologists can observe the present and reconstruct the last one or two centuries from historical sources, but the study of animal bones adds valuable insight into the peoples and landscapes of the past while telling much about the evolution of human-animal relationships In this standard work, now available in paperback, O'Connor offers ожцза a detailed overview of the study of animal bones He analyzes bone composition and structure and the archaeological evidence left by the processes of life, death, and decomposition He goes on to look at how bone is excavated, examined, described, identified, measured, and reassembled into skeletons The bulk of the book is devoted to the interpretation of bone fragments, which tell much about the animals themselves--their health, growth, diet, injuries, and age at death.  2008 г Мягкая обложка, 206 стр ISBN 1603440844.

NeuroAnalysis investigates using the neural network and neural computation models to bridge the divide between psychology, psychoanalysis, and neuroscience when diagnosing mental health disorders and prescribing treatment Avi Peled builds on Freud's early attempts to explain the neural basis of mental health by introducing neural computation ожцзз as a bridging science to explain psychiatric disorders Peled describes the brain as a complex system of interconnected units and goes on to suggest that conscious experience, feelings, and mood are emergent properties arising from these complex organisations This model describes mental health disorders in terms of perturbation to the optimal brain organisation, and demonstrates how particular disorders can be identified through a specific breakdown pattern of the brain's organisation This fresh approach to the diagnosis of psychiatric disorders will interest students, professors, and researchers of psychoanalysis, neuroscience, and their related fields.  2008 г Мягкая обложка, 160 стр ISBN 0415451337.

Living systems are fundamentally dynamic and adaptive, relying on a constant throughput of energy They are also, by definition, self-sustaining over the full range of length and time scales This characteristic combination of constant adaptive flux and emergent persistence requires that the properties of all living systems must, at some level, ожцбц be cyclical Consequently, oscillatory dynamics, in which system properties rise and fall in a regular rhythmic fashion, are a central feature of a wide range of biological processes The scale of biological oscillations covers enormous ranges, from the sub-cellular to the population level, and from milliseconds to years While the existence of a number of biological oscillations is widely appreciated, there are many oscillatory phenomena that are much less obvious, albeit no less important Since oscillations reflect periodic quantitative changes in system properties, their detection and characterisation relies on the quantitative measurement of a system over an extended period Until recently, such measurements were difficult to obtain at cellular or sub-cellular resolution, and relatively few cellular oscillations had been described However, recent methodological advances have revealed that oscillatory phenomena are as widespread in cells as they are at larger scales The chapters in this book provide an introduction to a range of both well known and less familiar cellular oscillations and serve to illustrate the striking richness of cellular dynamics The contributions focus particularly on elucidating the basic mechanisms that underlie these oscillations The essentially quantitative nature of oscillations has long made them an attractive area of study for theoretical biologists, and the application of complementary modelling and experimental approaches can yield insights into oscillatory dynamics that go beyond those that can be obtained by either in isolation The benefits of this synergy are reflected in the contributions appearing in this book The current resurgence in interest in interdisciplinary approaches to cell and molecular biology stems in part from the increasing availability of system-wide data on the state of the components of cellular regulatory networks Alimiting factor in these approaches is often the lack of suitable ways of characterising a network state in terms of summary quantitative features Without such features, it is typically difficult to gain new qualitative insight into the operating logic of all but the simplest networks In this regard, oscillatory phenomena provide ideal exemplars for systems approaches, since oscillations have clear summary features that prove invaluable in combining mathematical models with experimental data.  2008 г Твердый переплет, 168 стр ISBN 0387097937.

The Roman town and legionary fortress of Lauriacum, modern Lorch near Enns in Upper Austria, was an important centre in the Roman province of Noricum According to written sources, in Late Antiquity Lauriacum was one of the first Christianized areas on the Roman Danube frontier Lothar Eckhart undertook excavations between 1960 and 1966 in the basilica ожцгд of St Laurentius in Lorch, and the publication of his results provoked a discussion that has continued until today In particular, stratigraphical questions concerning the building phases in Late Antiquity and the early Middle Ages, including the discovery of an early Christian church, were heavily disputed during the next decades The author offers a new analysis of the structural remains under the basilica of St Laurentius, beginning with the Roman periods up to the early modern period, with an emphasis on questions of cult and settlement continuity between the 5th and 10th centuries.  2008 г Мягкая обложка, 166 стр ISBN 3700140096.

This book focuses on the formative period in pastoral-sedentary relations, the late second and early first millennium BCE, on today's northern borders of China This area - known as the Northern Zone - emerged as a crucial arena for interactions among sedentary, semi-sedentary, and nomadic people during a decisive period in which the region's ожцди unique economic adaptations, socio-political systems, local cultures and identities took shape It is also during this period that the real and symbolic chasm between the "Chinese" (or Zhou) states and their northern neighbors emerged, and when conscious attempts were made to define a broader, ethnic-like identity vis-a-vis the "other" way of life Based on archaeological field work in the Chifeng area of Inner Mongolia and on data carefully collected from Chinese archaeological publications, as well as on anthropologically-derived theories and rigorous analytical methods, the book challenges common perceptions which were based mainly on the Chinese historical records It demonstrates that while changes in aspects of daily life, such as subsistence strategies and political organization, were gradual; a much more dramatic change occurred in the style and quantity of symbolic expression This suggests that the construction of identities - local and regional- was not merely the end result of the process but rather was, from the beginning, an important catalyst of change The book brings more comprehensive and nuance understanding to the archaeology and history of East Asia By focusing on issues of identity, its construction, manipulation and materialization in symbols and artifacts, it also brings new theoretical and methodological innovations to a topic which has a relatively long history in anthropology but which has only recently been seriously addressed by archaeologists.  2008 г Твердый переплет, 224 стр ISBN 1845533151.

The origin of life is a hotly debated topic The Christian Bible states that God created the heavens and the Earth, all in about seven days roughly six thousand years ago This episode in Genesis departs markedly from scientific theories developed over the last two centuries which hold that life appeared on Earth about 3 5 billion years ago in the form ожцжц of bacteria, followed by unicellular organisms half a millennia later It is this version of genesis that Alexandre Meinesz explores in this engaging tale of life's origins and evolution How Life Began elucidates three origins, or geneses, of life—bacteria, nucleated cells, and multicellular organisms—and shows how evolution has sculpted life to its current biodiversity through four main events—mutation, recombination, natural selection, and geologic cataclysm As an ecologist who specializes in algae, the first organisms to colonize Earth, Meinesz brings a refreshingly novel voice to the history of biodiversity and emphasizes here the role of unions in organizing life For example, the ingestion of some bacteria by other bacteria led to mitochondria that characterize animal and plant cells, and the chloroplasts of plant cells As Meinesz charmingly recounts, life’s grandeur is a result of an evolutionary tendency toward sociality and solidarity He suggests that it is our cohesion and collaboration that allows us to solve the environmental problems arising in the decades and centuries to come Rooted in the science of evolution but enlivened with many illustrations from other disciplines and the arts, How Life Began intertwines the rise of bacteria and multicellular life with Vermeer’s portrait of Antoni van Leeuwenhoek, the story of Genesis and Noah, Meinesz’s son’s early experiences with Legos, and his own encounters with other scientists All of this brings a very human and humanistic tone to Meinesz’s charismatic narrative of the three origins of life.  2008 г Твердый переплет, 296 стр ISBN 0226519317.

Constants, such as the gravitational constant and the speed of light, are present in all the laws of physics Recent observations have cast doubt on one of them Does this mean that the structure of physics will crumble? Are we seeing the dawn of a scientific revolution? This book is written in the form of an enquiry into the importance of a possible variation ожцжщ in fundamental constants Jean-Philippe Uzan and Benedicte Leclercq ask such questions as: What is a constant? What role do constants play in the laws of physics? How can we verify that they are indeed constants? The authors take us though the history of the ideas of physics, evoking major discoveries from Galileo and Newton to Planck and Einstein and raising questions provoked by ever more current accurate observations They approach physics by way of its constants in order to distinguish the fundamental from the particular, and to recognise different physical forces, but these cannot be drawn together into one unique force, as those seeking a unified theory would like The book shows how the development of theories leads to simplification, analogy and the regrouping of phenomena It describes how physicists seek to explain why the world is as it is and why can they cannot explain the values of the mass of elementary particles such as the electron and the proton The authors ask if we can have confidence in the promising theory of superstrings, which would reinterpret these particles as states of vibration of the strings, extended objects appearing only in macroscopic dimensions This highly instructive survey of physics, from the laboratory to the depths of space, explores the paths of gravitation, general relativity and new theories such as that of superstrings It is complete and coherent, and goes beyond the subject of constants to explain and discuss many ideas in physics, encountering along the way, for example, such exciting details as the discovery of a natural nuclear reactor at Oklo in Gabon.  2008 г Мягкая обложка, 136 стр ISBN 0387734546.

Fundamental change occurs most often in one of two ways: as a "fatal discontinuity," a sudden catastrophic event that is potentially world changing, or as a persistent, gradual trend Global catastrophes include volcanic eruptions, viral pandemics, wars, and large-scale terrorist attacks; trends are demographic, environmental, ожцзл economic, and political shifts that unfold over time In this provocative book, scientist Vaclav Smil takes a wide-ranging, interdisciplinary look at the catastrophes and trends the next fifty years may bring This is not a book of forecasts or scenarios but one that reminds us to pay attention to, and plan for, the consequences of apparently unpredictable events and the ultimate direction of long-term trends Smil first looks at rare but cataclysmic events, both natural and human-produced, then at trends of global importance: the transition from fossil fuels to other energy sources; demographic and political shifts in Europe, Japan, Russia, China, the United States, and Islamic nations; the battle for global primacy; and growing economic and social inequality He also considers environmental change--in some ways an amalgam of sudden discontinuities and gradual change--and assesses the often misunderstood complexities of global warming Global Catastrophes and Trends does not come down on the side of either doom-and-gloom scenarios or techno-euphoria Instead, relying on long-term historical perspectives and a distaste for the rigid compartmentalization of knowledge, Smil argues that understanding change will help us reverse negative trends and minimize the risk of catastrophe.  2008 г Твердый переплет, 320 стр ISBN 0262195860.
