In this first book to cover model systems, molecular mechanisms and clinical trials all in one volume internationally renowned scientists and clinicians provide a comprehensive treatment of neuroprotective strategies for all important neurological disorders. Following an overview of neurodegenerative, traumatic, and ischemic disorders, the book goes on to cover in vitro and animal model systems as well as cellular and molecular mechanisms. An extremely helpful analysis of clinical studies explains reasons for their success and failure, and the whole is rounded off with a look at the current challenges and hopes for the development of effective treatment strategies in the future.
Lewis Bokurtz is not saving the world. This isn’t that kind of story. His parents don’t keep him in a cupboard under the stairs. His teacher doesn’t lock him in a closet filled with broken glass. His friends have never treated him with disdain due to his expression of any unique supernatural powers. He desperately wishes they would. A thoughtful young boy yearns for adventure, like so many he has lived between the covers of his favorite books. When the discovery of a rusted iron coin hidden in the depths of a pond leads him to the towering black gates of the Iron Circus, he finds everything he ever wanted waiting just for him beneath the monolithic reaches of its imposing iron Big Top. But everything at the Iron Circus is not as it seems: the performers are all busy preparing for their spectacular upcoming show, almost too keen for Lewis’s help. Meanwhile, the sinister Ringmaster lurks in the shadows, his hollow smile a mask for sabotage and subterfuge. Can Lewis triumph over every challenge, ensure the show goes on, and live the adventure he’s always dreamed of? Or is this just not that kind of story?

The first conference on the Marine Biology of the South China Sea was convened in Hong Kong in 1990, to celebrate the opening of the Swire Institute of Marine Science. The second was convened in Guangzhou, China, in 1993. The third conference returned toHong Kong in 1996 and, in a continuing pattern of growth, was attended by 127 scientists and students from 14 countries and territories. Of the 1O4 keynote addresses, papers and posters presented at the meeting, 42 are published here, following critical peer review, under the symposium categories of Taxonomy and Biological Diversity, Biology and Ecology and Coastal Zone Management and Conservation of the Biological Resources, of the South Chi...
