Using the theological work of Karl Barth as a resource for present-day inquiry, the contributors in this volume discuss the complex interconnections between the religious and the political designated by the term theo-politics. Speaking from various political and cultural contexts (Germany, the United Kingdom, the United States, Hong Kong, Taiwan, and the People’s Republic of China) and different disciplinary perspectives (Protestant Theology, Political Sciences, and Sociology), the contributors address contemporary challenges in relating the religious and the political in Western and Asian societies. Topics analyzed include the impact of diverse cultural backgrounds on given theo-political...
The book presents selected research papers from the 2023 Chinese Intelligent Automation Conference (CIAC2023), held in Nanjing, China, on October 2-5, 2023. It covers a wide range of topics including intelligent control, robotics, artificial intelligence, pattern recognition, unmanned systems, IoT, and machine learning. It includes original research and the latest advances in the field of intelligent automation. Engineers and researchers from academia, industry, and government can gain valuable insights into solutions combining ideas from multiple disciplines in this field.
Illuminates Chinese corporate behaviour through vivid case studies of leading corporations interacting with their political and natural-human ecosystems.
Over the last decade, our understanding of metabolism in the context of cancer has evolved greatly. It is now evident that altered cellular metabolism is an integral effector of tumorigenesis that is intricately intertwined with cell signaling as well as genetic and epigenetic regulation of diverse tumor programs. Recognizing the dysregulation of cellular metabolism as an important aspect of tumor function has offered new potential direction to seek clinical benefit by providing targets for the development of novel therapeutics. To-date, several small molecule inhibitors that target tumor or immune cell metabolism are being explored in active clinical trials as either preventive, stand-alone, or adjuvant therapies for various malignancies. Thus, identifying critical metabolic vulnerabilities in pre-neoplastic cells, cancer cells, and immune cells has direct and timely relevance for developing additional treatment and preventative strategies against cancer.
This book illustrates the importance of the Natural Biometabolites, which offer a rich reservoir of candidate compounds for drug discovery in the battle against cancer. Recent research and development efforts concerning anti-cancer drugs derived from natural products have led to the identification of numerous candidate molecules that inhibit cancer cell proliferation and metastasis using a variety of mechanisms. Given its scope, the book offers a valuable resource for cancer biologists and general oncologists alike, while also benefitting research professionals in Science, Nursing, Medicine, Biochemistry, Genetics and Bioscience who wish to understand the fundamentals of prognosis and prediction in tumorigenesis. Moreover, the book provides an essential platform for understanding drug resistance mechanisms and combatting the growing menace of multidrug resistance.
