The Origin and Early Evolutionary History of Snakes
Snakes comprise nearly 4,000 extant species found on all major continents except Antarctica. Morphologically and ecologically diverse, they include burrowing, arboreal, and marine forms, feeding on prey ranging from insects to large mammals. Snakes are strikingly different from their closest lizard relatives, and their origins and early diversification have long challenged and enthused evolutionary biologists. The origin and early evolution of snakes is a broad, interdisciplinary topic for which experts in palaeontology, ecology, physiology, embryology, phylogenetics, and molecular biology have made important contributions. The last 25 years has seen a surge of interest, resulting partly from new fossil material, but also from new techniques in molecular and systematic biology. This volume summarises and discusses the state of our knowledge, approaches, data, and ongoing debates. It provides reviews, syntheses, new data and perspectives on a wide range of topics relevant to students and researchers in evolutionary biology, neontology, and palaeontology.
Frontiers in Clinical Drug Research - CNS and Neurological Disorders: Volume 12
Frontiers in Clinical Drug Research - CNS and Neurological Disorders is a book series that brings updated reviews to readers interested in advances in the development of pharmaceutical agents for the treatment of central nervous system (CNS) and other nerve disorders. The scope of the book series covers a range of topics including the medicinal chemistry, pharmacology, molecular biology and biochemistry of contemporary molecular targets involved in neurological and CNS disorders. Reviews presented in the series are mainly focused on clinical and therapeutic aspects of novel drugs intended for these targets. Frontiers in Clinical Drug Research - CNS and Neurological Disorders is a valuable re...
Machine Learning and Data Mining in Pattern Recognition
Ever wondered what the state of the art is in machine learning and data mining? Well, now you can find out. This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 5th International Conference on Machine Learning and Data Mining in Pattern Recognition, held in Leipzig, Germany, in July 2007. The 66 revised full papers presented together with 1 invited talk were carefully reviewed and selected from more than 250 submissions. The papers are organized in topical sections.
Current Perspectives on Viral Disease Outbreaks
The COVID-19 pandemic has reminded the world that infectious diseases are still important. The last 40 years have experienced the emergence of new or resurging viral diseases such as AIDS, ebola, MERS, SARS, Zika, and others. These diseases display diverse epidemiologies ranging from sexual transmission to vector-borne transmission (or both, in the case of Zika). This book provides an overview of recent developments in the detection, monitoring, treatment, and control of several viral diseases that have caused recent epidemics or pandemics.
Image Analysis and Recognition
The refereed proceedings of the 4th International Conference on Image Analysis and Recognition are featured in this volume. Seventy-one full papers are presented along with forty-four poster papers. These papers cover image restoration and enhancement, image and video processing and analysis, image segmentation, computer vision, pattern recognition for image analysis, shape and matching, motion analysis, tracking, and more.
Nossos Ancestrais, Genealogia E História
Este livro, que levou vinte e sete anos de pesquisas genealógicas, será de grande relevância, uma vez que vai documentar e registrar a genealogia de grandes famílias de quase todo o Centro-Oeste Mineiro, e ainda, narrar um pouco de sua história, de sua etnia e de sua cultura. Seu público alvo será, além, de seus próprios descendentes, também de futuros pesquisadores de seus próprios ramos genealógicos e estudiosos sobre o assunto. Sobretudo, será de grande importância para a História de Minas e do Brasil, na medida em que essas famílias deram ao nosso país elementos de realce na vida pública, artística, cultural, etc. Durante todos estes longos anos de pesquisas, que dediquei e dedico as Famílias Rabelo, Vasconcelos, Gonçalves da Costa e outras, sejam através de batistérios paroquiais, arquivos públicos, prefeituras e cartórios, tomando depoimento de várias pessoas, principalmente dos mais velhos, cujas memórias remontam a um passado mais distante, dando-me incentivo e informações importantes para a construção desta obra.
The Explorers of South America
A narrative history of exploration from Christopher Columbus to the 19th century, with journal excerpts, diaries and other writings of the explorers themselves. Goodman has marshaled his wide-ranging research and lifelong interest in exploration into a comprehensive, scholarly history. A reprint of the original 1972 edition, the tales have lost none of their luster.
