In four years at a Southern Baptist university, we wrote our theses. Mine was about the “Silence of Jesus.” After graduation, my paper was converted to “Messianic Prophecies, Cross-Examined,” a book nominated for the Erik Hoffer Award. In this riveting divine drama, unlike His Sanhedrin trial, and after two millennia of silence and guilty verdict, Jesus is represented by a defense council that energetically defends Him against the opposing council, Caiaphas' interrogations. It will energize your heart, mind, and soul! A pleasure to read, a one-stop. The thesis concluded with the fifth chapter, but the book has a sixth chapter about His Second Coming, so read it last. Will the Son of Man return by the same Name? Will His followers be known as Christians, or will they be given a new Title? The combined force of sixty-five Bible (KJB) texts removes all uncertainty concerning His potential New Name. The sixth chapter discusses these and other thought-provoking subjects. This book discusses forty-nine topics that our preachers are unable to address in their sermons. In words of one reader, Messianic Prophecies, Cross-Examined, shifted my consciousness.
Metal Toxicology addresses the effects of metals on human health, as well as their mechanisms of toxicity. Unlike most books on metal toxicity which are organized by individual metals, this book is arranged inan organ-by-organ basis. It deals with unifying mechanisms of metal toxicity within a given tissue, and with exposure of a tissue to more than one metal at a time.Unique aspect of organ-specific orientationWritten by leading authorities in metal toxicologyChapters of special interest include Risk Assessment, Emerging Technologies, and Molecular Biological TechniquesServes as an excellent sourcebook of generalized information on metal toxicology, allowing for specific tissue-system referencing

Molecular chaperones are involved in a wide variety of essential cellular processes in living cells. A subset of molecular chaperones have been initially described as heat shock proteins protecting cells from stress damage by keeping cellular proteins in a folding competent state and preventing them from irreversible aggregation. Later it became obvious that molecular chaperones are also expressed constitutively in the cell and are involved in complex processes such as protein synthesis, intracellular protein transport, post-translational modification and secretion of proteins as well as receptor signalling. Hence, it is not surprising that molecular chaperones are implicated in the pathogenesis of many relevant diseases and could be regarded as potential pharmacological targets. Starting with the analysis of the mode of action of chaperones at the molecular, cellular and organismic level, this book will then describe specific aspects where modulation of chaperone action could be of pharmacological and therapeutic interest.
This is the first book to deal comprehensively with endocrine toxicology. It covers the whole spectrum of known toxicant effects on the endocrine system ranging from small disturbances in hormonal secretion to full endocrine neoplasia. In each chapter, internationally recognised authorities have addressed basic endocrine physiology, current techniques for studying endocrine toxicity in vivo and in vitro, known xenobiotic-induced toxicity phenomena and the latest scientific advances in understanding the underlying molecular and cellular events. Consideration is given to important issues such as dietary factors which influence endocrine toxicity, species differences in sensitivity to toxicants, and the toxicity of hormones and drugs. The volume provides a sound basis for understanding the scientific aspects of this complex and important area of toxicology and will be a useful source of information for all those working in this field.
This paper presents the design and the parameters of a bio-economic model of sequential artisanal and industrial fisheries for tropical shrimp. It consists of a biological part based on a yield per recruit (Y/R) Thompson and Bell model and an economic part based on a simple input-output model.
The twelfth-century French poet Chrétien de Troyes is a major figure in European literature. His courtly romances fathered the Arthurian tradition and influenced countless other poets in England as well as on the continent. Yet because of the difficulty of capturing his swift-moving style in translation, English-speaking audiences are largely unfamiliar with the pleasures of reading his poems. Now, for the first time, an experienced translator of medieval verse who is himself a poet provides a translation of Chrétien’s major poem, Yvain, in verse that fully and satisfyingly captures the movement, the sense, and the spirit of the Old French original. Yvain is a courtly romance with a moral tenor; it is ironic and sometimes bawdy; the poetry is crisp and vivid. In addition, the psychological and the socio-historical perceptions of the poem are of profound literary and historical importance, for it evokes the emotions and the values of a flourishing, vibrant medieval past.
Cultural Writing. Edited by Graziella Parati and Ben Lawton. ITALIAN CULTURAL STUDIES includes selected essays written by participants of the Italian Cultural Studies Symposium at Dartmouth College in Hanover, NH on October 29-31, 1999. These essays examine the notion of cultural studies-both Italian and others. What is cultural studies? Why should we study it? How should we teach it? What is its relation to traditional language studies? Contributors include Norma Bouchard, Joseph A. Buttigieg, Sandra Carletti, Roberto Maria Dainotto, Nathalie Hester, Sarah Patricia Hill, Irene Kacandes, Giancarlo Lombardi, Daniela Orlandi, Marie Orton, Nicoletta Pireddu, Adrian W.B. Randolph, Maria Galli Stampino, and Rebecca West. Perfectbound.
