A heartwarming, in-depth portrait of the beloved star whose sensational performances in Dirty Dancing and Ghost seduced a generation, and whose courage in the face of illness captivated millions For almost thirty years, Patrick Swayze has been an American icon of masculinity and sex appeal, strong but sensitive, romantic yet dangerous. In this intimate and revealing biography, New York Times bestselling author Wendy Leigh shares the inspiring untold story of Patrick's incredible life: his show business childhood, his fairy-tale love affair with wife Lisa Niemi, his catapult into alcoholism after his father's untimely death, the daredevil exploits that almost killed him, and his courageous fi...
The Spirit of Want
Lucy MacMiel is a successful trial lawyer in Atlanta, Georgia, married, who falls in love with a client accused of sexual assault on a girl. He is a famous and powerful faith-healing evangelist whose charm, dominance, and virility captivate her. Her lust pulls her away from family and career and she follows her lover to Africa where she discovers secrets that force her to leave him and try to regain her life in the US. But her recovery of career, family, and friends is fraught with rejection when she cannot suppress her desire for the evangelist, the only man shell ever love, and she must again face decisions she knows in her heart if wrongly chosen may bring disastrous results.
The Physiology of Inflammation – The Final Common Pathway to Disease
Chronic diseases are increasingly recognized as involving low grade inflammation, that is, a self-perpetuating tissue response to stress caused by exogenous or endogenous triggers, that progressively evokes danger-associated molecular pattern release, ultimately driving tissue damage and loss of function. This response is frequently unapparent clinically, thus the designation "low grade". This eBook comprises nineteen reviews and original articles that provide the most updated knowledge on the causes and roles of this inflammatory response in a variety of diseases and conditions. The editorial that precedes these articles not only summarizes each one, but provides a broader interpretation of the role of inflammation in health and a variety of disease conditions, the underlying mechanisms and the targets more promising for therapy. Finally, it also highlights the most relevant and emerging research topics that are already shaping future directions for the development of more fine-tuned and innovative therapies.
Environmental Toxicology and Ecosystem
This book covers varied aspects of environmental contaminants and their effect on the living organisms. It addresses the basics of ecotoxicity assessment, interaction of the abiotic or biotic factors with the novel chemical entities, and the fate of the natural organic matter upon interaction with new chemical entities. It further includes models for ecotoxicity studies and high-throughput approaches including OMICS. It provides an overview of the ecological risk assessment, regulatory toxicology guidelines, and possible roadmaps for protection of environmental health. Features: Discusses environmental toxicology facets and their effects on the ecosystem. Provides an introduction of environmental toxicology keeping in view the paradigm shift on entry of novel materials in the environment. Includes bioavailability, bioconcentration, and biomagnification of trophic transfer of pollutants. Covers high-throughput approaches for ecotoxicity assessment. Explores roadmaps for environmental protection and sustainable development. This book is geared toward graduate students and researchers in Environmental Sciences and Engineering, Toxicology, and Ecology.
Fast Liquid Chromatography-mass Spectrometry Methods In Food And Environmental Analysis
There is a growing need for high-throughput separations in food and environmental research that are able to cope with the analysis of a large number of compounds in very complex matrices. Whereas the most common approach for solving many analytical problems has often been high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), the recent use of fast or ultra-fast chromatographic methods for environmental and food analysis has increased the overall sample throughput and laboratory efficiency without loss (and even with an improvement) in the resolution obtained by conventional HPLC systems.This book brings together researchers at the top of their field from across the world to discuss and analyze rece...
From Fundamentals to Applications in Geotechnics
The work of geotechnical engineers contributes to the creation of safe, economic and pleasant spaces to live, work and relax all over the world. Advances are constantly being made, and the expertise of the profession becomes ever more important with the increased pressure on space and resources. This book presents the proceedings of the 15th Pan-American Conference on Soil Mechanics and Geotechnical Engineering (XV PCSMGE), held in Buenos Aires, Argentina, in November 2015. This conference, held every four years, is an important opportunity for international experts, researchers, academics, professionals and geo-engineering companies to meet and exchange ideas and research findings in the ar...
Aromatic and Medicinal Plants of Drylands and Deserts
The description and analysis of the Mexican and other countries desertic plants from the point of view of their use in traditional medicine and their potential use in integrative medicine is the overall theme of this book. Aromatic and Medicinal Plants of Drylands and Deserts: Ecology, Ethnobiology and Potential Uses describes the historic use of drylands plants, botanical and geological classification, also describes the endemic plants used in traditional medicine, going through the most relevant aspects of biomedicine and integrative medicine. The chemical and bioactive compounds from desertic medicinal and aromatic plants and the analytic techniques to determine chemical and bioactive com...
Emigrant's Invention in America with Unsolved Problems
Emigrant’s Invention in America with Unsolved Problems By: Anatoly Rozenblat The content of this book is related to a specific topic in science of law, as protection of intellectual property for inventors and creative people in field of Copyright and Patent Laws. The main goal of designing this book is to give beginning inventors and creative people more useful information in question of protection of their designed works. The author has also discovered his own inventor’s experience in designing many original inventions in former Soviet Union and America and the ways of their protection.
Resources Use Efficiency in Agriculture
Achieving zero hunger and food security is a top priority in the United Nations Development Goals (UNDGs). In an era characterized by high population growth and increasing pressure on agricultural systems, efficiency in the use of natural resources has become central to sustainable agricultural practices. Fundamentally speaking, eco-efficiency is about maximizing agricultural outputs, in terms of quantity and quality, using less land, water, nutrients, energy, labor, or capital. The concept of eco-efficiency involves both the ecological and economic aspects of sustainable agriculture. It is therefore essential to understand the interaction of ecosystem constituents within the extensive agric...
