Sex, Gender, and Epigenetics
Sex, Gender, and Epigenetics: From Molecule to Bedside explores our expanding knowledge of the science of epigenetics in which gene expression is modified as a consequence of small chemical additions to various components of the genome. The book provides an overview of the field, describing the epigenetic phenomena that unite biological sex and environmental experience to create the unique phenome of each individual. The book also analyzes the impact of ancestors’ environmental experience on subsequent generations through the sex-specific transmission of environmentally induced epigenetic modifications. Here, international leaders in the field discuss both sex-specific normal physiology an...

Chemistry and Biology of Pteridines and Folates
Pteridine and folate research has long been recognized as important for many biological processes, such as amino acid metabolism, nucleic acid synthesis, neurotransmitter synthesis, cancer, cardiovascular function, and growth and development of essentially all living organisms. Defects in synthesis, metabolism and/or nutritional availability of these compounds have been implicated as major causes of common disease processes, e.g. cancer, inflammatory disorders, cardiovascular disorders, neurological diseases, autoimmune processes, and birth defects. Since pteridine and folate biology uses concepts and experimental techniques drawn from all of these disciplines, the breadth of this volume is its great strength, bringing together researchers from a wide variety of fields including biochemistry, chemistry, physics, biophysics, genetics, microbiology, cell and molecular biology, virology, immunology, cancer, neurobiology and medicine. This volume should be a valuable and unique reference work for scientists with interests in these areas as well as those seeking up to date information.
Desired Language
National linguistic ideology has been at the base of most historical processes that –whether they are complete or not – have brought us to the current reality: a world of languages that represent, with greater or lesser exactitude, the diversity – and convergences – of human groups. Various of today’s thinkers have predicted the decline or even the end of national ideologies. In the area of language, postmodernism would make the linguistic affiliation of the community individuals irrelevant, de-ideologise language use, and extend plurilingualism and language alternation in association with a new distribution of (physical or functional) spaces of linguistic practice. But is this tru...
Studies in Natural Products Chemistry
This volume presents frontier reviews of recent developments in bioactive natural products in cutting-edge areas by eminent experts in their respective fields. It is an essential addition to this important series on Natural Products Chemistry, generally acknowledged to be the leading series on this topic.• The first seven reviews cover recent developments in the field of bioactive marine natural products.• Additional coverage includes Novel Domino reactions; medicinal plants and phytochemicals; recent developments in bioactive natural peptides; the chemistry and pharmacology of natural cyclic lipopeptides; and the biological activities of Salvia .• The text includes a comprehensive review of biologically active compounds of semi-metals such as boron, silicon, arsenic, selenium and tellurium.
L'antropologia importa
Aquesta obra col·lectiva és un petit homenatge a una de les professionals més influents en l’antropologia catalana i espanyola dels darrers cinquanta anys. S’hi vol reflectir les diferents dimensions per les quals ha circulat la carrera professional de Dolors Comas d’Argemir, unes dimensions que necessàriament s’intersequen amb la seva condició de dona, catalana, de classe obrera però també amb el context històric, econòmic, polític, acadèmic i social pel qual ha transitat personalment i professionalment. El llibre, en el qual hi ha disset col·laboracions, s’estructura en tres parts: l’àmbit del parentiu i la família; les situacions de cura i les persones cuidadores, i el gènere i els feminismes. Finalment s’hi aplega un darrer grup d’articles miscel·lanis.
Pels camins de la psicoanàlisi
Pels camins de la psicoanàlisi és el resultat de la compilació de trenta-cinc textos d’Inés Tomàs, publicats entre 1991 i 2018, que il·lustren l’itinerari professional d’aquesta professora de la URV. La curiositat intel·lectual de la Dra. Tomàs fou insaciable, i es va traduir en un mestratge sobre art i pintura, literatura, cinema, psicomotricitat, teràpies naturals i —evidentment— teoria psicoanalítica en sentit ampli, que és i serà recordat per tothom qui en va poder gaudir. Els cursos, seminaris, conferències, debats i sessions de cinefòrum que impartia, caracteritzats per una extraordinària vitalitat, eren preparats meticulosament i dictats amb un entusiasme contagiós. Aquest llibre és, precisament, una bona mostra de la profunditat de l’obra, pensament i personalitat de l’autora.
