Thank You, Betty
Thank You, Betty By: Maria Tikhonova No one would say th at Steve's life was easy. But then, what teenager's life is? Between his disinterested, dysfunctional-and in his father's case, drunk-parents, his lack of popularity in high school, both with other students and his teachers, he's had enough. Perhaps, he decides, it he changes a few things about himself, things will start going his way. But at what cost?
Flavonoids and Their Disease Prevention and Treatment Potential
Flavonoids are ubiquitously present in plant-based foods and natural health products. The molecule of flavonoids is characterized by a 15-carbon skeleton of C6–C3–C6, with the different structural configuration of subclasses. The major subclasses of flavonoids with health-promotional properties are the flavanols or catechins (e.g., epigallocatechin 3-gallate from green tea), the flavones (e.g., apigenin from celery), the flavonols (e.g., quercetin glycosides from apples, berries, and onion), the flavanones (e.g., naringenin from citrus), the anthocyanins (e.g., cyanidin-3-O-glucoside from berries), and the isoflavones (e.g., genistein from soya beans). Scientific evidence has strongly sh...

Culture Matters in Russia—and Everywhere
Culture Matters in Russia—and Everywhere discusses modernization, democratization, and economic and political reforms in Russia and elsewhere, and asserts that these reforms can be accomplished through the reframing of cultural values, attitudes, and institutions. The contributors—who include three Nobel Laureates—strive to analyze and understand the role of culture in modernization, particularly relevant to Russian culture as tensions between Russia and the West heighten to levels not seen since the Cold War.
Performing Justice
After seizing power in 1917, the Bolshevik regime faced the daunting task of educating and bringing culture to the vast and often illiterate mass of Soviet soldiers, workers, and peasants. As part of this campaign, civilian educators and political instructors in the military developed didactic theatrical fictions performed in workers' and soldiers' clubs in the years from 1919 to 1933. The subjects addressed included politics, religion, agronomy, health, sexuality, and literature. The trials were designed to permit staging by amateurs at low cost, thus engaging the citizenry in their own remaking. In reconstructing the history of the so-called agitation trials and placing them in a rich soci...
Intracranial Gliomas Part III - Innovative Treatment Modalities
At present most intracranial gliomas are considered incurable with current treatment strategies, and the search for new modalities that may effectively control tumor growth continues. The chapters in this volume describe basic principles and therapeutic possibilities of several innovative techniques, including photodynamic therapy, laser-induced interstitial thermotherapy, stereotactic cryodestruction, high-intensity focused ultrasound ablation, boron neutron capture therapy, proton and carbon ion irradiation, targeted therapy, immunotherapy, gene therapy, local chemotherapy, and alternating electric fields therapy. Potential applications of extracellular vesicles and nanotechnology for management of gliomas are highlighted as well. Many of these methods have already demonstrated antitumor efficacy in clinical testing, whereas others are still under development. The materials presented in this book are mainly directed at clinicians treating patients with brain tumors, as well as clinical and basic researchers working in the field of neuro-oncology.
Artificial Intelligence and Natural Language
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 11th Conference on Artificial Intelligence and Natural Language, AINL 2022, held in St. Petersburg, Russia, in April 2022. The 8 revised full papers and 1 short paper were carefully reviewed and selected from 20 submissions. The volume presents recent research in areas of of text mining, speech technologies, dialogue systems, information retrieval, machine learning, articial intelligence, and robotics.
