Politisches Scheitern
Das politische Scheitern im Europa der Vormoderne ist bis heute von der Geschichtswissenschaft mit wenigen Ausnahmen nicht als eigenes Themenfeld beforscht worden. Ausgehend von einem integrativen Politikbegriff im Sinne der Neuen Politikgeschichte widmet sich der Band solchen historischen Akteuren und Gruppen, Bestrebungen und Entwicklungen, deren originäres wie zugeschriebenes Scheitern eine essentielle Bedeutung für kollektive Ordnungssysteme entfaltete. Der Untersuchung im Rahmen des Sammelbandes liegen drei elementare Fragen zugrunde: Was wird als Scheitern betrachtet? Wer betrachtet Scheitern? Wie verändern sich diese Konstellationen im Verlaufe der Zeit? Zur Beantwortung der Frages...
The Heir of Redclyffe
The Heir of Redclyffe tells the story of the Byronic Guy Morville, heir to the Redclyffe baronetcy, and his cousin Philip Morville, a conceited hypocrite who enjoys an unwarrantedly high reputation. When Guy raises money to secretly pay off the debts of his blackguard uncle, Philip spreads the rumour that Guy is a reckless gambler. As a result Guy's proposed marriage to his guardian's daughter Amy is called off and he is disowned by his guardian. Guy bears the situation with a new-found Christian fortitude until the uncle clears his character, enabling him to marry Amy after all.
The Surfaceome
This volume provides readers with the latest techniques and tools to assess modifications and functions of the surfaceome. The chapters in this book are divided into 4 sections: discovery-based approaches to surfaceome content; targeted approaches for surfaceome content; cell-based function analyses related to surfaceome content; and computational approaches in surfaceome studies. Section 1 focuses on discovery-based approaches for cataloging surfaceome content that analyses the surfaceome of bacteria, avian embryos, and mammalian systems. Section 2 discusses methods that over-express specific targets in Sf9 cells and generate bi-specific antibodies for targeting cancer and somatic cells. Se...
Advancing Health Literacy
Advancing Health Literacy addresses the crisis in health literacy in the United States and around the world. This book thoroughly examines the critical role of literacy in public health and outlines a practical, effective model that bridges the gap between health education, health promotion, and health communication. Step by step, the authors outline the theory and practice of health literacy from a public health perspective. This comprehensive resource includes the history of health literacy, theoretical foundations of health and language literacy, the role of the media, a series of case studies on important topics including prenatal care, anthrax, HIV/AIDS, genomics, and diabetes. The book concludes with a series of practical guidelines for the development and assessment of health communications materials. Also included are essential techniques needed to help people make informed decisions, advocate for themselves and their community, mitigate risk, and live healthier lives.

Oogenesis
Oogenesis - the process by which female germ cells develop into mature eggs, or ova - is a complex process involving many important elements of developmental and cellular biology: from cell-cell interactions, complex signalling cascades, specialized cell cycles and cytoskeleton organization. Oocytes from various species (including clam, starfish, xenopus and mouse) are excellent model systems to study the biochemistry of cell division with important implications for basic and clinical research. This book describes the entire process of oogenesis in chronological order with contributions from leading international researchers and chapters covering medical and ethical considerations in oogenic...
Visions of African Unity
This collection of essays analyzes different iterations of African unity, exploring the political and cultural visions that informed projects aimed at African unification. It explores the cultural, economic and non-state aspects of the Organisation of African Unity (OAU) as the principal institution dedicated to the cooperation of African states, from its establishment in 1963 to its transformation into the African Union (AU) in 2000, as well as how ideas of African unity shaped the Cold War and African liberation struggles. Bringing together contributors from a diverse range of disciplinary backgrounds across Africa, Europe and the US, this book investigates the ideological origins and historiography of Pan-African and unification projects, and considers how African intellectuals, leaders and populations engaged with these ideas.
Master Control Genes in Development and Evolution
In this fascinating book, one of the world's most eminent developmental biologists discusses some of the exciting new insights into how genes control development. Walter Gehring describes in vivid detail his essential contributions to the landmark discovery of the homeobox, a characteristic DNA segment found in the genes of all higher organisms from the fruitfly to humans, and he explains how this has provided the key to our modern understanding of development and evolution. The book thus becomes not only a lucid discussion of genetics but also an engaging description of the art of scientific investigation. Gehring begins his story by looking at the work of the many researchers who laid the ...
