East Central Europe in Exile Volume 2
The East Central Europe in Exile series consists of two volumes which contain chapters written by both esteemed and renowned scholars, as well as young, aspiring researchers whose work brings a fresh, innovative approach to the study of migration. Altogether, there are thirty-eight chapters in both volumes focusing on the East Central European émigré experience in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. The first volume, Transatlantic Migrations, focuses on the reasons for emigration from the lands of East Central Europe; from the Baltic to the Adriatic, the intercontinental journey, as well as on the initial adaptation and assimilation processes. The second volume is slightly different in scope, for it focuses on the aspect of negotiating new identities acquired in the adopted homeland. The authors contributing to Transatlantic Identities focus on the preservation of the East Central European identity, maintenance of contacts with the “old country”, and activities pursued on behalf of, and for the sake of, the abandoned homeland. Combined, both volumes describe the transnational processes affecting East Central European migrants.

Mitochondrial Medicine
This second edition offers 88 chapters divided among three volumes providing the most comprehensive source of know-how in the wide-ranging field of Mitochondrial Medicine. Volume II guides readers through chapters on mitochondrial dysfunction, functional’ mitochondria, mitochondrial retrograde, mitochondrial dNTP pool quantification, mitochondrial ADP-ribosylation, blue-native gel approach, 3D optical cryo-imaging method, mitochondrial ATP and ROS production, protocol for untargeted metabolomic analysis, and methods for analysis of nitrotyrosine-containing proteins. Written in the highly successful Methods in Molecular Biology series format, chapters include introductions to their respective topics, application details for both the expert and non-expert reader, and tips on troubleshooting and avoiding known pitfalls. Authoritative and accessible, Mitochondrial Medicine, Second Edition, Volume 2: Assessing Mitochondria aims to be a comprehensive source of know-how in the wide-ranging field of Mitochondrial Medicine.
Mitochondria in Health and Disease
Mitochondrial biology reinvented itself and became a new world that has attracted new scientists influencing every field of biomedical research. Mitochondrial research is growing and changing, as reflected by the exponential rise in the number of conferences covering mitochondrial biology and the role of mitochondria in diseases ranging from neurodegenerative diseases,metabolic diseases and genetic muscular dystrophies toimmunopathologies and cancer. As the awareness of the essential role of mitochondria in pathology rose, a demand for new approaches to measure mitochondrial function resulted in the robust development of new forms of microscopy and spectroscopy that opened windows into previ...
Climate and Society in Europe
A richly illustrated book on the history of climate change in Europe. Two perspectives, one unique book: two leading experts, a historian and a climatologist, co-author a new standard work on climate history. An overview of the connection between climatic and social developments over the last 1000 years. For the first time, a historian and a climatologist with knowledge of climate history have worked closely together to create a unique book, combining climate reconstructions based on documented data in their human-historical context with temporally highly resolved analyses of climate and glaciers. "Here we can clearly see how changes in climate affected the environment and people of Europe o...
Mechanosensitive Ion Channels, Part A
Current Topics in Membranes provides a systematic, comprehensive, and rigorous approach to specific topics relevant to the study of cellular membranes.

Articles covered in the volume include The Mechanical Properties of Bilayers; Molecular Dynamic Modeling of MS Channels; Structures of the Prokaryotic Mechanosensitive; Channels MscL and MscS; 3.5 Billion Years of Mechanosensory Transduction: Structure and Function of Mechanosensitive Channels in Prokaryotes; Activation of Mechanosensitive Ion Channels by Forces Tran...
Adam Mickiewicz i Rosjanie
Choć mogłoby się wydawać, że tematyka związków Adama Mickiewicza z Rosjanami jest już wyeksploatowana, to zawartość prezentowanej monografii i jej interdyscyplinarny charakter wyraźnie temu przeczą. Przygotowane w nowatorskim ujęciu badawczym kolejne rozdziały książki przybliżają zapomniane bądź nieznane wręcz fakty dotyczące wielkiego pisarza – jego relacji z Rosjanami, recepcji jego dzieł w Rosji w XIX i XX wieku, a także problematyki rosyjskiej w dorobku Mickiewicza i jej znaczenia. Szczególnym i godnym podkreślenia walorem monografii jest różnorodna metodologia poszczególnych tekstów wynikająca ze specyfiki dyscypliny reprezentowanej przez autorów, któr...
Listen to the Music
Dr. Hilary Koprowski is the pioneer of live polio vaccine, the first researcher to advance the diagnostic and therapeutic use of monoclonal antibodies, and the developer of the "gold standard" rabies vaccine. A world-reknowned maverick in biomedical research, Koprowski's research methods were often considered controversial and even radical. Nonetheless, he acquired key positions in many research organizations, such as the Rockefeller Foundation, Lederle Labs, and Wistar Institute, initiating landmark studies from cancer research to multiple sclerosis. One of his crowning achievements, the successful crusade for monoclonal antibodies, resulted in his founding of Centocor, a forerunner in the corporate world of biomedicine. This account of Koprowski's life history is a mixture of personal interviews, anecdotes, and legends of the art and science behind the man.
