'Sikaran Shield Lord' is a tale of twenty-two aliens: Sikaran mercenaries; whilst travelling across the galaxy, they encounter the human race for the first time. The Sikaran mercenaries are expert martial artists and members of a Sikaran Brotherhood of the Sword, the "Isithan." Often misunderstanding the humans, Marayshan, Nava and Avernyi have many adventures, and some close encounters with the humans, with amusing results. Equally the human star ship Captain, Lawrence Grey and his crew must come to terms with their cross-cultural, cross-species prejudices as they become more involved with the aliens. Joanna Ray has created an amazing world with vividly original characters. The book is humorous but also thought provoking, touching on many emotional states: everything one would expect from a tale of alien and human encounter!
'Hi, the name's Joe Marsh and I am the narrator for this book and it's the twenty-fourth century using the Earth calendar and not the Galactic Year count, in case anybody decides to read this book five hundred or so years from now. I begin the story as a soldier on the Security Team of the Interspace starship, the I.G.S. McBride. This was a supplies grain ship that had been converted to a war vessel, as there was a severe shortage of space battle cruisers on Earth. That is because we were losing the space war, right up until two years ago ...'Joanna Ray has written a space epic saga full of adventure, humour and romance in the 24th century. Narrated by Joe Marsh, a human security officer aboard the human star ship McBride the story lurches from war, hatred and bitterness between the antagonists to peace at last. The Sikaran Empire has just changed sides and Earth is helped by elite Sikaran soldiers led by Shield Lord Marayshan. Love and romance blossom and flourish on the Naiobi colonies.

Through societal inequalities and the misuse of power, a psychological burden of disablement is imposed upon people of faith with epilepsy: this disempowerment is challenged by this work and an attempt has been made to highlight distorted applications of scripture and practice.
The iron element (Fe) is strictly required for the survival of most forms of life, including bacteria, plants and humans. Fine-tuned regulatory mechanisms for Fe absorption, mobilization and recycling operate to maintain Fe homeostasis, the disruption of which leads to Fe overload or Fe depletion. Whereas the deleterious effect of Fe deficiency relies on reduced oxygen transport and diminished activity of Fe-dependent enzymes, the cytotoxicity induced by Fe overload is due to the ability of this metal to act as a pro-oxidant and catalyze the formation of highly reactive hydroxyl radicals via the Fenton chemistry. This results in unfettered oxidative stress generation that, by inducing protei...
