Neglected Tropical Diseases and Conditions of the Nervous System
A number of diseases and conditions that occur primarily in remote rural or poor urban areas of low-income countries have traditionally been neglected by the neuroscience research community. These diseases and conditions affect the nervous system directly (sometimes with lethal consequences) and/or are associated with severe neurological sequels such as epilepsy, cognitive deficits, and sleep disruption. Several diseases also have the effect of promoting poverty by leaving sufferers unable to lead economically productive lives due to cognitive and behavioral disturbances or severe stigmatization. The pathogenesis of neural dysfunction in the diseases addressed in this book and their sequels remains unclear. Neuroscience of Neglected Diseases and Conditions makes available much needed information about how these diseases affect the human nervous system as well as to promote interest in further research. Further research into neglected diseases and conditions will uncover information that sheds light on more general topics of interest to the neuroscience research community.

Organic Sulfur Compounds
Organic Sulfur Compounds, Volume I deals with the chemistry of organic sulfur compounds such as disulfides, polysulfides, olefins, acetylenes, and chloroethylenes. Topics covered range from the inorganic acids of sulfur and the thermodynamics of organic sulfur compounds to some applications of isotopic sulfur and the stereochemistry of disulfides and polysulfides. The mechanism of oxidation of thiols to disulfides is also discussed. Comprised of 40 chapters, this volume first considers the precise structures of elemental sulfur in relation to the reactions of sulfur compounds, followed by an analysis of the inorganic acids of sulfur. The reader is then introduced to the thermodynamics of organic sulfur compounds and the bonding characteristics of the sulfur atom, as well as the infrared spectra of organosulfur compounds. Subsequent chapters focus on the ionic scission of the sulfur-sulfur bond; nucleophilic reactions of thiols with acetylene and chloroethylene; reactions of sulfur with olefins; and the chemistry of isothiocyanates. This book should prove useful to advanced students, practitioners, and research workers in the field of organic chemistry.
Manjša rimska naselja na slovenskem prostoru / Minor Roman settlements in Slovenia
Monografija je posvečena manjšim rimskim naseljem, ki ležijo na območju današnje Slovenije, kamor so segale tri velike upravne enote rimske države: Italija ter provinci Norik in Zgornja Panonija. V samostojnih poglavjih je zgoščeno in po skupnem konceptu predstavljenih dvajset naselij različnega tipa in stopnje raziskanosti. Podatki so umeščeni v prostor, podprti s kartami in načrti, vsebinsko primerljivi in jasno ovrednoteni. Vsako poglavje vsebuje podatke o legi naselja in njegovem antičnem imenu, kratko zgodovino raziskav, morebitno obljudenost lokacije v prazgodovini, predstavitev antičnih literarnih virov in epigrafskih spomenikov. Osrednji del je usmerjen v pregled arheol...
The Idea and Ideal of the Town Between Late Antiquity and the Early Middle Ages
This volume collects papers by distinguished European scholars, on the changing perception of the city in the period of transition from the Roman World to the Early Middle Ages. Central themes are the persistence of classical ideals of urban life, within a rapidly-changing world, and the emergence of a new ideal of the city that was specifically Christian.
Steiermark
Den zeitlichen Bogen von den Türkenkriegen im ausgehenden 17. Jahrhundert bis in die Zeit des Biedermeier in der ersten Hälfte des 19. Jahrhunderts spannend, enthält dieser Sammelband eine Reihe von Beiträgen, die den epochalen und nachhaltigen Veränderungen am Beispiel eines Landes am Südostalpenrand - der Steiermark - gewidmet sind. Zentrale Themen sind nicht die politischen Ereignisse, sondern der allgemeine Profilwandel, der sich während des "langen" 18. Jahrhunderts auch in der steirischen Landschaft manifestiert. Diese vielschichtigen Veränderungen werden in einem erweiterten Landschaftsbegriff dokumentiert, der in 20 Einzeluntersuchungen zu Themen wie "Landschaft als Wohn- und Lebensraum", als "Bewegungsraum", als "Ordnungs- und Gestaltungsraum", als "Kultur- und Medienraum" sowie als "Betrachtungsraum in der Kunst" grundlegende Einblicke in die steirische Geschichte des 18. Jahrhunderts gewährt, die damit erstmals auch in einem gesamteuropäischen Kontext umfassend dargestellt wird.
Poznoantièna utrjena naselbina Tonovcov grad pri Kobaridu / Late antique fortified settlement Tonovcov grad near Kobarid
All finds from the field investigations at Tonovcov grad near Kobarid are published in the second volume. An exceptional number of finds represents the base for studies of the material culture in Late Antiquity (metallic finds, glass finds, pottery finds), as well as for the others archaeological (anthropological and zoological) remains.
Tonovcov grad near Kobarid
V vodniku je predstavljeno najdišče Tonovcov grad pri Kobaridu. Na strmem skalnem hribu nad Sočo so bili odkriti sledovi več prazgodovinskih dob, rimskega, poznoantičnega in zgodnjesrednjeveškega obdobja. Izstopajo ostaline iz 5. in 6. stoletja n. š., ko je bila na hribu zgrajena velika naselbina z več kot dvajsetimi stanovanjskimi zgradbami in obrambnimi stolpi ob obzidju. Na vzvišenem osrednjem delu so bile raziskane tri odlično ohranjene zgodnjekrščanske cerkve z baptisterijem in dva zbiralnika za vodo. Podrobneje je predstavljena tudi velika stanovanjska zgradba s prizidkom, vetrolovom in ognjišči. Poznoantična naselbina je bila opuščena ob koncu 6. ali celo v prvi polovici 7. stoletja. Kasneje, okoli leta 800, je bila utrdba ponovno kratkotrajno poseljena. V vodniku opisane ostaline pomembno dopolnjujejo vedenje o skrivnostnem času odmiranja antike in preseljevanja ljudstev, ki je ključnega pomena za razumevanje nastanka slovenskega kot tudi mnogih drugih narodov sedanje Evrope. Vodnik je izšel še v angleški, nemški in italijanski različici.
