Practical Management of Hypertension
This compact guide on the practical management of the hypertensive individual first saw light in 1990. The underlying concept was, and still is, to produce an easily accessible 'leaf-through' type of mini-textbook on the hypertensive individual's condition and the many dilemmas that surround diagnosis, surveillance and intention to treat or not treat. Our primary aim has been to promote a utilitarian train of thought in the decision-making process in practice, whether general or specialistic. In pursuing this policy, we felt, however, that the terms of practical orientation and advice should be matched, in a concise form, to scientific arguments whenever possible. This cannot always be achie...
Critical Phishing Defense Strategies and Digital Asset Protection
As phishing attacks become more sophisticated, organizations must use a multi-layered approach to detect and prevent these threats, combining advanced technologies like AI-powered threat detection, user training, and authentication systems. Protecting digital assets requires strong encryption, secure access controls, and continuous monitoring to minimize vulnerabilities. With the growing reliance on digital platforms, strengthening defenses against phishing and ensuring the security of digital assets are integral to preventing financial loss, reputational damage, and unauthorized access. Further research into effective strategies may help prevent cybercrime while building trust and resilienc...
Plant Breeding Reviews, Volume 41
Plant Breeding Reviews presents state-of-the-art reviews on plant genetics and the breeding of all types of crops by both traditional means and molecular methods.

Obesity and Cardiovascular Disease
The number of individuals who are obese or overweight has dramatically increased over recent years and is now becoming epidemic.These individuals are more likely to suffer cardiovascular diseases and therefore physicians, specialists and trainees increasingly need to deal with these issues on the ward and in clinic.

Obesity and Cardiovascular Disease is a readily assimilated pocket guide to obesity and cardiovascular disease. It is intended to be used 'on-the-go' and is compact enough to be on hand whilst in consult...
Happy Without the Meal
"Perhaps without realizing it, we now find ourselves living in a unique time compared to all of human history. No generation has ever had such an abundance of material goods at their fingertips. Food, transportation, communication, and all kinds of entertainment flood a saturated marketplace, every one promising to make us ""happy."" Yet in the midst of such plenty many people are experiencing distress and a growing sense of sadness--in spite of all their possessions. Material and technological progress is a great thing, but one that has had the unintended consequence of being confused with human progress. The pursuit of the ""goods life"" has been confused with seeking a good life. Fortunately, wisdom gleaned from both faith and the social sciences points toward the same true north regarding principles that lead to a life of well-being. Happy Without the Meal is for all who are interesting in understanding the historical, educational, and marketing forces that have lead to the cultural confusion over what makes for a happy life, and for all who want to rediscover the nature of simple ways of living flourishing lives. "
Rethinking Stress in an Age of Ease
Stress is a concept that has become both increasingly popularized and misunderstood in society. Today we often think about how "stressed" we are, many on a daily basis. This is especially interesting when we consider that as life has become easier, at least from a materialistic standpoint, rates of depression and anxiety in our culture have risen. It is true that living with too many demands in life can be harmful to our physical and emotional health. But it is equally true that when we believe difficult circumstances are an unnatural part of life, we only set ourselves up for increased fear and sorrow. Hans Selye, the scientist who discovered how stress operates in the mind and body nearly ...
