Critical Heritage Studies and the Futures of Europe
Cultural and natural heritage are central to ‘Europe’ and ‘the European project’. They were bound up in the emergence of nation-states in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, where they were used to justify differences over which border conflicts were fought. Later, the idea of a ‘common European heritage’ provided a rationale for the development of the European Union. Now, the emergence of ‘new’ populist nationalisms shows how the imagined past continues to play a role in cultural and social governance, while a series of interlinked social and ecological crises are changing the ways that heritage operates, with new discourses and ontologies emerging to reconfigure herita...
Innovative and Diplomatic Methodologies in Economics, Management, and Government
In today's globalized world, the challenges facing economics, management, and governance are more complex than ever before. Traditional approaches struggle to address issues such as climate change, economic inequality, and geopolitical tensions, leaving gaps in delivery and outcomes. The solution lies in harnessing the power of innovation and diplomacy to navigate these intricate challenges. Innovative and Diplomatic Methodologies in Economics, Management, and Government serves as a guide for academic scholars seeking to navigate the complexities of modern global challenges. Through a diverse array of perspectives and insights, it illuminates the synergies between diplomacy, innovation, economics, management, and government. By bridging theory and practice, the book offers actionable solutions and real-world case studies that empower scholars to adopt a more integrated and forward-thinking approach.
Brainlesion: Glioma, Multiple Sclerosis, Stroke and Traumatic Brain Injuries
This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed post-workshop proceedings of the International Workshop on Brain Lesion, as well as the challenges on Brain Tumor Segmentation (BRATS), Ischemic Stroke Lesion Image Segmentation (ISLES), and the Mild Traumatic Brain Injury Outcome Prediction (mTOP), held in Athens, October 17, 2016, in conjunction with the International Conference on Medical Image Computing and Computer-Assisted Intervention, MICCAI 2016. The 26 papers presented in this volume were carefully reviewed. They present the latest advances in segmentation, disease prognosis and other applications to the clinical context.
Saved by Love and Faith (English) Salva pelo Amor e pela Fé (Portuguese)

Sulfur-Containing Marine Bioactives
Sulfur is an essential element for all living organisms and is required by algae, plants, fungi, animals, and humans for growth and development. It is present in a variety of biomolecules involved in many biological functions, including the maintenance of cell redox homeostasis, defense, and detoxifying processes. The alteration of sulfur compound metabolism may lead to human diseases as well as to plant and animal pathologies. The marine environment, which is characterized by a high biodiversity of species and a great chemical diversity, represents a great potential source of bioactive sulfur molecules. A broad range of biologically active sulfur compounds with unique structures and pharmacological properties have been reported to occur in marine organisms, from amino acids to different sulfated derivatives. Great attention is also focused on sulfur metabolites in the marine microbial world in relation to the global sulfur cycle. The aim of this Special Issue is to present existing knowledge and recent studies on sulfur-containing marine bioactive compounds in different biological systems. Attention is also focused on metabolites active at the ecological level.

This is also essential reading for industrial scientists, engineers, R&D, and other professionals with an interest...
Nutraceuticals in Cardiac Health Management
Cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) constitute the major cause of death worldwide, claiming nearly 18 million lives each year. Multiple foods and nutraceuticals have been proven to reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease. This new book offers an informative update on the most recent scientific evidence addressing the use of nutraceuticals in the prevention and management of heart disease. It summarizes the functional foods that are involved in preventing the risk of CVDs, the mechanisms of the bioactive components that lower the risk of chronic illnesses, as well as the dietary patterns that are involved in the prevention of CVDs. It also covers specific nutraceuticals, including probiotics, dietary fibers, garlic, green tea, vitamins, tomatoes and other lycopene-rich fruits and vegetables, dietary supplements, bee products, and more. In addition, it focuses on detailing the endothelial effects of marine- and plant-derived omega-3 fatty acids and marine-derived natural flavonoids in hypertension and CVDs.
