The Development of Autobiographical Memory
Autobiographical memory constitutes an essential part of our personality. This book reveals how the development of a conscious self, of an integrated personality and of an autobiographical memory are all intertwined.
Pharmacoresistance in Epilepsy
This new edition of Pharmacoresistance in Epilepsy addresses all issues relating to drug-resistance in epilepsy, including studies in patients as well in experimental models and presents the basis for an understanding of recent developments in the pathogenesis and treatment of this condition. Important issues associated with drug-resistant epilepsy are reviewed and updated, such as abnormalities in inhibitory mechanisms, neurotoxicity and changes the immune system associated with this disorder, and the development of drug-resistance as consequence of chronic exposure to antiseizure-medications. Considering that a major obstacle is that epilepsy associated with drug-resistance cannot be controlled with the traditional antiseizure medications, specific chapters describe therapeutic strategies to prevent or reduce the progression of the disease with complementary medical therapies, such as transcranial focal stimulation to promote neuroprotection. Pharmacoresistance in Epilepsy is a valuable resource for anyone working in the field, whether studying epilepsy in the lab or treating it in an office.
The Authority of the Gospel
Oliver O Donovan is widely regarded as one of the preeminent Protestant Christian ethicists of our time. His teaching and scholarship have exerted a profound influence on countless moral theologians. This volume honoring O Donovan shows how the various contributors -- themselves distinguished scholars -- have developed their own thinking through serious engagement with O Donovan s work. Significantly, they build upon, expand, and critique the agenda for Christian ethics that O Donovan has been instrumental in constructing. As Robert Song and Brent Waters say in their introduction, To genuinely honor O Donovan, one cannot remain content with reciting but must risk one s own exposition.

Ultrasound contrast agents
Recent advancements in nano/micro materials and related characterization approaches allow the design of a new type of ultrasound contrast agents (UCAs) with enhanced multifunctional behaviour. This is chance is also supported by the recent achievements in modelling and signal processing. This book provides the state of art of the research activity of two successful European projects, TAMIRUT and SIGHT, addressing an integrated system, encompassing the contrast agent, the hardware equipment and the processing strategies, as a key tool for a combined diagnostic and therapeutic approaches (theranostics) in medical ultrasound. The work provides a highlight of the state of art in the research of novel ultrasound contrast agents (UCAs). Main progresses on the multifunctional aspects of next-generation UCAs concern targeting and drug release properties, perfusion and biointerface behaviour, ultrasound scattering performance, signal processing, electronic equipment.
Väter und ihre Söhne
Dieses Sachbuch widmet sich der Vater-Sohn-Beziehung – und zwar mit Blick auf jedermann; ebenso wie es Söhnen und Vätern (und Müttern) anregende und aufschlussreiche Lektüre sein soll, können Psychotherapeuten und Berater mit Gewinn mitlesen. Es werden zunächst Aspekte beleuchtet, die Vater-Werden, Mann-Sein und Sohn-Sein heute beinhalten. Anschließend wird der Wandel der Vater-Rolle und des Vater-Bildes, insbesondere in der jüngeren Zeit, dargestellt. Untermauert durch aktuelle Ergebnisse der Väter-Forschung wird die besondere Rolle des Vaters für die Entwicklung der Söhne erläutert. Hierbei werden phasenspezifische Entwicklungsschritte und das lebenslange Wechselspiel der Gef...
La porta magica di Roma
...dopo, fu tutto in discesa, le epigrafi le decifrai in pochissimo tempo, ero sostenuto dalla consapevolezza che esse nascondevano delle verità scientifiche, che dovevo assolutamente trovare, bastava solo tirarle fuori, come risolvere un enigma..
Die Enden des Körpers
Das Buch untersucht den Körper in doppelter Perspektive: Zum einen nimmt es den Körper in einem geometrischen Sinne beim Wort und fragt danach, welche realen und welche imaginären Grenzen dieser hat, wie weit er in reale, augmentierte oder virtuelle Räume hineinreicht, welche Interventionen an seinen Grenzen und Oberflächen ansetzen und nicht zuletzt, welche Aushandlungen sich an seinen Enden, an seinen räumlichen Umgrenzungen und an seiner vermeintlichen Geschlossenheit anlagern. In den Blick geraten so jene Kontaktpunkte, Schnittstellen und Interfaces, die den Körper mit einer Welt verbinden (z.B. im Fall smarter Wohn- und Arbeitsumgebungen) oder ihn von ihr abgrenzen. Der zweite Zugang handelt von der zeitlichen Dimension des Körpers, also von all den Szenarien des Endes, des Untergangs, des Verschwindens und Überflüssigwerdens, die dem Körper prognostiziert wurden. Diesen Szenarien steht eine Vielzahl von Strategien gegenüber, die darauf abzielen, den scheinbar verlorenen Körperwieder zu restituieren.
