Alain Fleischer
Cinéaste, photographe ? " Mon projet de départ, dit-il, était d'avoir différentes identités plus ou moins secrètes sans que j'aie besoin de reconnaissance par rapport à elles. Savoir que je pouvais faire de la photo, ou du cinéma, que je pouvais écrire, c'est une façon d'échapper à la spécialisation. Si l'on parvient à être reconnu comme photographe par les photographes ou cinéaste par les cinéastes ; cela permet de pousser loin le jeu. En fait mon rapport avec ces pratiques est un rapport à l'identité, à l'illusion de l'identité. "
Hypolipidemic Agents
The major cause of death in the Western world is some form of vascular disease; and principal among these forms is atherosclerotic heart disease (ASHD). Although much is known about the etiology and treatment of ASHD, there is, as yet, no specific means of prognosis of an impending coronary episode. There are, however, several indications of susceptibility to coronary disease, generally known as risk factors, the foremost of which is hyperlipidemia. Hyperlipidemia is more commonly designated as hypercholesteremia or triglyceridemia, depending upon which moiety is elevated, but since lipids are transported in the blood as members of a lipoprotein complex, the most descriptive general term wou...
Recent Developments in Particle Physics and Cosmology
The NATO Advanced Study Institute 2000 was held in Cascais, a small town located in a renowned beach resort area, near Lisbon. The aim of the Meeting was to provide an overview and to cover the recent devel opments in some of the most important topics in Particle Physics and Cosmology, including Neutrino Physics, CP violation, B-Physics, Baryo genesis, Dark Matter, Inflation, Supersymmetry, Unified Theories, Large Extra-Di~ensions and M-theory. In the NATO ASI 2000, we had the priv ilege to have among the lecturers, some of the most prominent physicists working in the fields of Particle Physics and Cosmology. Furthermore, there was a strong participation by a large number of young scientists...
Subcellular Biochemistry
This volume continues the tradition of SUBCELLULAR BIOCHEMISTRY of trying to break down interdisciplinary barriers in the study of cell function and of bringing the reader's attention to less well studied, but nevertheless useful, biological systems. We start with an extensive article by T. P. Karpetsky, M. S. Boguski and C. C. Levy on the structure, properties and possible functions of polyadenylic acid. Apart from revealing a general lack of appreciation of many important aspects of the chemical properties of poly adenylic acid, the literature also shows that there is a great gulf between those who study the biological role of polyadenylic acid. and those who study its physicochemi cal pro...
The Clinical Management of Itching
This is a beautifully illustrated rapid-reference clinical textbook on itching with special emphasis on atopic dermatitis, urticaria, and the other itching diseases that are particularly common and cause great morbidity. Author Alan B. Fleischer, M.D., among the world's leading experts in the field, has written this text in ready-reference outline form around nearly 100 superb full-color clinical photographs presented as aids to better recognition and diagnosis. The book's main chapters cover the science of itching, measurement of itching and scratching and quality of life issues, patient evaluation, systemic causes, infections and infestations and bites and stings, common dermatitis diseases (eczemas), urticarial diseases, and localized itching as well as the rarer diseases. Material on truly obscure and arcane itching diagnoses is included, says, Dr. Fleischer as "some of the author's favorite material for the itch trivia master." The text concludes with a chapter on treatment and an appendix on phototherapy (PUVA) protocols. Includes bibliographic references and index.
Drug Transporters
It is increasingly recognized that various transporter proteins are expressed throughout the body and determine absorption, tissue distribution, biliary and renal elimination of endogenous compounds and drugs and drug effects. This book will give an overview on the transporter families which are most important for drug therapy. Most chapters will focus on one transporter family highlighting tissue expression, substrates, inhibitors, knock-out mouse models and clinical studies.
Post-translational Processing
Post - Translational Modification: A Practical Approach and its companion volume Protein Expression: A Practical Approach form the final part of the PAS mini-series on protein synthesis and processing. This volume begins with a chapter on protein sequencing followed by a chapter on protein folding and import into organelles. The next three chapters cover the three major forms of covalent modification: phosphorylation, glycosylation, and lipid modification. Proteolytic processing the is the next topic and the final two chapters are concerned with protein turnover in mammalian cells and yeast. This book is a comprehensive volume of the best current methodology and is designed to be used at the bench or away from the bench to gain insight into future experimental approached.
The Art and Inventions of Max Fleischer
The history of animated cartoons has for decades been dominated by the accomplishments of Walt Disney, giving the impression that he invented the medium. In reality, it was the work of several pioneers. Max Fleischer--inventor of the Rotoscope technique of tracing animation frame by frame over live-action footage--was one of the most prominent. By the 1930s, Fleischer and Disney were the leading producers of animated films but took opposite approaches. Where Disney reflected a Midwestern sentimentality, Fleischer presented a sophisticated urban attitude with elements of German Expressionism and organic progression. In contrast to Disney's naturalistic animation, Fleischer's violated physical laws, supporting his maxim: "If it can be done in real life, it isn't animation." As a result, Fleischer's cartoons were rough rather than refined, commercial rather than consciously artistic--yet attained a distinctive artistry through Fleischer's innovations. This book covers his life and work and the history of the studio that bore his name, with previously unpublished artwork and photographs.
