Aging, Peripheral Inflammation, and Neurodegeneration
Aging is a major risk factor for several neurodegenerative diseases, including Parkinson’s and Alzheimer’s disease. The immune response is often dysregulated in aging, leading to a predisposition towards a state of chronic inflammation. The precise processes which support this inflammatory state are still a subject of debate, however, cell- and tissue-specific transcriptional changes in several immune-related genes have been identified as potential drivers. In addition to genetic changes, losses in the bacterial diversity within the microbiome are also observed during aging. However, it is unclear whether this may be a cause or consequence of inflammation. Host-microbiome interactions ar...
Homeostatic Control of Brain Function
Homeostatic Control of Brain Function offers a broad view of brain health and diverse perspectives for potential treatments, targeting key areas such as mitochondria, the immune system, epigenetic changes, and regulatory molecules such as ions, neuropeptides, and neuromodulators. Loss of homeostasis becomes expressed as a diverse array of neurological disorders. Each disorder has multiple comorbidities - with some crossing over several conditions - and often disease-specific treatments remain elusive. When current pharmacological therapies result in ineffective and inadequate outcomes, therapies to restore and maintain homeostatic functions can help improve brain health, no matter the diagno...
Beyond Partition
Communal violence, ethnonationalist insurgencies, terrorism, and state violence have marred the Indian natio- state since its inception. These phenomena frequently intersect with prevailing forms of gendered violence complicated by caste, religion, regional identity, and class within communities. Deepti Misri shows how Partition began a history of politicized animosity associated with the differing ideas of ""India"" held by communities and in regions on one hand, and by the political-military Indian state on the other. She moves beyond that formative national event, however, in order to examine other forms of gendered violence in the postcolonial life of the nation, including custodial rape...

Pattern Recognition and Machine Intelligence
This volume contains the proceedings of the third international conference on Pattern Recognition and Machine Intelligence (PReMI 2009) which was held at the Indian Institute of Technology, New Delhi, India, during December 16–20, 2009. This was the third conference in the series. The first two conferences were held in December at the Indian Statistical Institute, Kolkata in 2005 and 2007. PReMI has become a premier conference in India presenting state-of-art research findings in the areas of machine intelligence and pattern recognition. The conference is also successful in encouraging academic and industrial interaction, and in prom- ing collaborative research and developmental activities...
Accelerating India's Development
Seventy-five years after Independence, India has much to be proud of. We are both the world’s biggest democracy and fastest-growing large economy. Yet, we face profound challenges that hinder both individual well-being and aggregate growth, including education and skills, health and nutrition, public safety, justice, social protection, and jobs. This seminal book systematically analyses India’s governance challenges, especially in delivering essential public services, and highlights how these are limiting India’s development. Drawing on a wealth of research and practical insights, it provides actionable, evidence-based strategies, emphasizing state-level reforms as critical for Indiaâ€...
Immune-Boosting Nutraceuticals for Better Human Health
This new volume discusses the valuable contribution of immune-boosting properties of nutraceuticals and functional foods toward human health, exploring dietary antioxidants, vitamins and minerals, edible microalgae, herbs, phytonutrients, omega 3-fatty acids, and probiotics. The volume addresses the immune-boosting properties of herbs and vegetables and the pharmacological and therapeutic importance of commonly used medicinal herbs and carotenoids-containing vegetables and their immunological and biological actions for treating disease and maintaining health. Several chapters focus on marine-derived sources used to boost immunity, such as microalgae-derived compounds and compounds from coral reefs, which can promote better health and alleviate the risk of development of degenerative diseases.
