Neurological disorders categorized as neurodegenerative, neuropsychiatric, and neurotraumatic impose a substantial health burden and cause a frail impact on life attributes. The use of synthetic drugs can have undesirable side effects, making neurotherapeutics challenging. Research on neuroprotection aiming for the utilization of safer natural compounds; phytochemicals specifically – is a cutting-edge approach. NeuroPhytomedicine intends to present readers with a wide-ranging and state-of-the-art appearance at the beneficial properties of phytochemicals on various neurological ailments. It additionally contains sections explaining: • Applications of phyto-nanotechnology in neurological ailments, • Phytoconstituents related deep learning and machine learning-based solutions for neurological disorders, • Epigenetic relevance pertaining to modulation by phytochemicals. The goal of NeuroPhytomedicine is to give readers a thorough and up-to-date look at how phytochemicals affect the brain and neurological illnesses in a way that is helpful for research scholars, academicians, scientists, neuroscientists, physicians, and researchers from the pharmaceutical industry.

A Critical Introduction proposes a new didactic and dynamic way of reading the great twentieth-century poet Fernando Pessoa (1888-1935). The aim is to present a holistic vision of this complex poet, promoting his literary geniality in order to better understand his orthonymic-heteronymic poetry.

In leading the reader through the poet's published literary work, Jerónimo Pizarro allows an intimate perspective, alongside an academic one, to better understand the workings of Pessoa's mind and life. Discussion centres on the dilemmas an editor faces when editing posthumously. A prime question revolves around the genesis of Pessoa's he...
Navigating Nationalism in Global Enterprise analyzes the role of nationalism in global business strategy, showing how multinationals act not just as drivers of globalization but also as sophisticated operators in a world of nations. Using the case study of German companies in colonial and post-colonial India, Christina Lubinski traces how nationalism's influence on business competitive strategies changed over the twentieth century and across major political turning points, such as two world wars and India's transition to independence. She highlights how national imaginings are both relational because they derive from comparisons with other nations, and historical because they mobilize the past to legitimize future aspirations. Lubinski stresses that learning from the past is how multinationals engage strategically with the content of nationalism – i.e., a nation's history, aspirations, and relationships with other nations. In India, German companies' competitiveness was continuously dependent on navigating nationalism and on understanding that nationalism and globalization are inextricably linked.
