Dendritic Cells in Fundamental and Clinical Immunology
These proceedings contain selected contributions from the participants to the Fourth International Symposium on Dendritic cells that was held in Venice (Lido) Italy, from Oc tober 5 to 10, 1996. The symposium was attended by more than 500 scientists coming from 24 different countries. Studies on dendritic cells (DC) have been greatly hampered by the difficulties in preparing sufficient cell numbers and in a reasonable pure form. At this meeting it has been shown that large quantities of DC can be generated from precursors in both mice and humans, and this possibility has enormously encouraged studies aimed to characterize DC physiology and DC-specific genes, and to employ DC therapeutically as adjuvants for im munization. The possibility of generating large numbers of autologous DC that can be used in the manipulation of the immune response against cancer and infectious diseases has tremendously boosted dendritic cell research and the role of DC in a number of medi cal areas has been heatedly discussed.
Discourses of Philology and Theology in Nietzsche
This study proposes to examine the tension in Nietzsche’s works between two competing discourses, i.e., the discourse of theology and the discourse of philology. It argues that, in order to understand Nietzsche’s complicated standpoint and the aim of his Kulturkritik, we have to appreciate how he operates with two different discourses, one indexed to belief, faith, liturgy (i.e., the discourse of theology) and another indexed to analytical reason, sceptical investigation, and logical argumentation, as well as historical context and linguistic precision (i.e., the discourse of philology). Its core thesis is that, in the end, Nietzsche can no longer believe, because he thinks he has uncovered a fraudulent production of meaning in the texts, in a way that is comparable with his insight into the production of morality in On the Genealogy of Morals (1887).
Before Dallas
The clergy sex abuse scandal and its ongoing fallout have created the greatest crisis in the history of the American Catholic Church. Yet for well over a thousand years, the Church has recognized the problem of clerical abuse of children and has maintained strict canonical punishments for perpetrators, including expulsion from the clerical state. So why did Church leaders favor therapeutic solutions over the provisions of canon law in dealing with decades of abuse? This ground-breaking analysis of the Church?s response to the abuse crisis addresses that very question and engages in a vigorous assessment of the Church?s failures in the light of its own canon law. The author, a civil and canon...
Gram-Positive Bacteria
This book gives a very timely account of recent - partly unpublished - research on the development of gram-positive bacteria as vaccine delivery vehicles for mucosal immunization. The practical and theoretical considerations are discussed and the basic concepts behind the different approaches are compared by giving specific examples of the use of different non-pathogenic bacteria as vaccine vehicles. Thus, a common framework of concepts for a new generation of mucosal vaccines is provided.
Mit Demenz gut leben - aber wie?
Immer mehr Menschen erkranken an Demenz. Und immer mehr Menschen sind in unterschiedlichsten Rollen betroffen: als Demenzkranke, als Angehöriger, als Nachbarin, als Hausarzt, als Therapeutin, als Forscherin, als Verkäufer, als Vermieter. Der grösste Wunsch der meisten Betroffenen: Die Demenz zum Verschwinden bringen. Es ist an der Zeit, mit Demenz leben zu lernen – als Einzelne und als Gesellschaft. Irene Leu, Pionierin beim Aufbau einer Demenzstation in Basel, heute Dozentin und Coach für Pflegestationen, die sich auf personenzentrierte Betreuung ausrichten möchten, erzählt aus dem Alltag in der Pflege Demenzerkrankter, der Betreuung von Angehörigen und der Begleitung von Fachpersonen. Sie zeigt, wie oft mit Wenigem viel getan werden kann, und hinterfragt gängige Herangehensweisen und Konzepte. Sie erläutert, wie es möglich ist, zu einem Verständnis zu gelangen, das die Person mit ihren Bedürfnissen, Wünschen und Werten in den Mittelpunkt der Betreuung stellt.
