Gaspar Cassadó
Barcelonian Gaspar Cassadó (1897-1966) was one of the greatest cello virtuosi of the twentieth century and a notable composer and arranger, leaving a vast and heterogeneous legacy. In this book, Gabrielle Kaufman provides the first full-length scholarly work dedicated to Cassadó, containing the results of seven years of research into his life and legacy, after following the cellist’s steps through Spain, France, Italy and Japan. The study presents in-depth descriptions of the three main parts of Cassadó’s creative output: composition, transcription and performance, especially focusing on Cassadó’s plural and multi-facetted creativity, which is examined from both cultural and histor...
Handbook of Research on Natural Products and Their Bioactive Compounds as Cancer Therapeutics
Many chemotherapeutic agents are available in today’s market that are highly effective against a variety of cancer types; however, the major drawbacks of these chemotherapeutic agents are the many side effects. As an alternative to these chemotherapeutic agents, there are a number of natural agents that are effective against cancer that have been tested in preclinical and clinical models over the years. These natural products must be documented and discussed in order to provide a thorough overview of all the options available for cancer treatment. The Handbook of Research on Natural Products and Their Bioactive Compounds as Cancer Therapeutics emphasizes the list of natural agents against ...
Stift und Stadt
Augustiner-Chorherren sind bislang weniger auf ihre Bedeutung im Beziehungsgeflecht der mittelalterlichen Stadt hin untersucht worden als die von der Forschung weitaus stärker beachteten Bettelorden. Dabei siedelten sich viele Chorherren genauso in oder nahe den Städten an wie die Mendikanten nach ihnen und betätigten sich dort in der Seelsorge. Sie prägten das Aussehen mancher Städte sogar stärker als die Bettelorden.Die auf ausgedehnten Studien in den reichhaltigen Archiven Kataloniens basierende Arbeit ist eine vergleichende Untersuchung zweier städtischer Regularkanonikerstifte. Der Verfasser verdeutlicht die Stellung der Augustiner-Chorherren in der Stadt mit Hilfe eines Fragenka...
Obsessive-Compulsive Symptoms in Schizophrenia
This book summarizes scientific advances in our understanding of the interrelationship between obsessive-compulsive symptoms and schizophrenia and reflects on the implications for future research directions. In addition, guidelines are provided on practical assessment, diagnosis and treatment interventions, covering both pharmacotherapy and psychotherapy. The book acknowledges the need for a perspective that recognizes heterogeneous subgroups and diverse neurobiological explanations; accordingly, multidimensional research-based conceptual frameworks are provided that incorporate recent epidemiological, neurocognitive, neurogenetic and pharmacodynamic findings. Obsessive-Compulsive Symptoms in Schizophrenia has been written by an international team of experts who offer insights gained through their extensive experience. It will be an invaluable guide to this frequent and clinically important comorbidity and will be particularly useful for mental health practitioners.

Minority Languages and Group Identity
The central concern in this book is the relationship between language and group identity, a relationship that is thrown into greatest relief in ‘minority’ settings. Since much of the current interest in minority languages revolves around issues of identity politics, language rights and the plight of ‘endangered’ languages, one aim of the book is to summarise and analyse these and other pivotal themes. Furthermore, since the uniqueness of every language-contact situation does not rest upon unique elements or features – but, rather, upon the particular weightings and combinations of features that recur across settings – the second aim here is to provide a general descriptive framew...
