This is the story of a 14 year old boy during the last month of World War II. It is the story of a flight from the invading Russian Army that started in a small town in the former Free State of Danzig and ended in a small village near Hanover. A flight that began by horse drawn wagon trying to cross the Weichsel river to out-run the Russian steamroller. After ten days on the road filled with refugees from the eastern parts of Germany, a rail road station was reached and the journey continued by train. Stops were made on the way until the Russian army again was in striking distance and a new journey began. In a small village in the Province of Schleswig-Holstein news of the German capitulation was received. One more trip was required to join part of the family. Once they arrived at their final destination a nine month odyssey was over. The family was partially united again.
Written in two parts, A Family Chronicle tells of the episodes once forgotten but were brought back to light in the first part.The author reconstructs remembrances of his own childhood. The second part contains testimonies of his family members, who, like him, had to leave their hometown in 1945 when the Russian steamroller threatened to overrun his town. This memoir documents these events so that they may not be forgotten by the next generation. The cruelty of war and his terrible consequences is also given some thought.
This book traces the history of adenosine receptor research from molecular biology to medicinal chemistry to behavior, including their implications in disease and potential strategies as therapeutic targets. It provides the reader with a comprehensive overview of the adenosine receptors that includes information on all subtypes - A1, A2A, A2B and A3. Aspects addressed include the most up to date information on their functional distribution in the nervous and peripheral systems, behavioral roles in inflammation, cancer, pain and neurological diseases such as Huntington’s disease, Epilepsy, Parkinson’s disease and Alzheimer’s disease.
"Neurobiology of Cognition and Behavior" is a cognitive neuroscience that maps cognitive/behavioral units with anatomical regions in the human brain. The brain-behavioral associations are based on functional neuroimaging combined with lesion studies. The findings will be used to explain differences in clinical syndromes with videos of patients included.
Spectroscopic Properties of Inorganic and Organometallic Compounds provides a unique source of information on an important area of chemistry. Divided into sections mainly according to the particular spectroscopic technique used, coverage in each volume includes: NMR (with reference to stereochemistry, dynamic systems, paramagnetic complexes, solid state NMR and Groups 13-18); nuclear quadrupole resonance spectroscopy; vibrational spectroscopy of main group and transition element compounds and coordinated ligands; and electron diffraction. Reflecting the growing volume of published work in this field, researchers will find this Specialist Periodical Report an invaluable source of information on current methods and applications. Specialist Periodical Reports provide systematic and detailed review coverage in major areas of chemical research. Compiled by teams of leading experts in their specialist fields, this series is designed to help the chemistry community keep current with the latest developments in their field. Each volume in the series is published either annually or biennially and is a superb reference point for researchers. www.rsc.org/spr
