Cardiac Tissue Engineering

Cardiac tissue engineering aims at repairing damaged heart muscle and producing human cardiac tissues for application in drug toxicity studies. This book offers a comprehensive overview of the cardiac tissue engineering strategies, including presenting and discussing the various concepts in use, research directions and applications. Essential basic information on the major components in cardiac tissue engineering, namely cell sources and biomaterials, is firstly presented to the readers, followed by a detailed description of their implementation in different strategies, broadly divided to cellular and acellular ones. In cellular approaches, the biomaterials are used to increase cell retentio...

One Night, Markovitch

Two men are crossing the sea to marry women they have never met, in order to help them escape war-torn Europe for the Jewish homeland. Zeev Feinberg – lover of many women and proud owner of a lustrous moustache yearns to return home, to a girl whose skin is sweet with the smell of oranges. For Yaacov Markovitch, however, who no woman has ever looked at twice, his fake marriage is the beginning of a lifelong obsession. As he vows to make his beautiful bride, Bella, love him – and she determines to break free – their changing fortunes take them through war, upheaval, terrible secrets, tragedy, joy and loss. Vital, funny and tender, One Night, Markovitch brilliantly fuses personal lives and epic history in an unforgettable story of endless, hopeless longing and the desperate search for love. Ayelet Gundar-Goshen was born in Israel in 1982, and studied Psychology, Film and Screenwriting. She has won numerous awards for her work, including 2nd prize at the 2010 IEMed European short story competition, the 2010 Gottlieb Prize for Screenplays and the 2012 Berlin Today Award. This is her first novel.

Fly Already

A brilliant new collection of stories from Etgar Keret, a master of the genre. There’s no one like Etgar Keret. His stories take place at the crossroads of the fantastical, searing, and hilarious. His characters grapple with parenthood and family, war and games, marijuana and cake, memory and love. These stories never go to the expected place, but always surprise, entertain, and move … In ‘Arctic Lizard’, a young boy narrates a post-apocalyptic version of the world where a youth army wages an unending war, rewarded by collecting prizes. A father tries to shield his son from the inevitable in ‘Fly Already’. In ‘One Gram Short’, a guy just wants to get a joint to impress a girl...

  • Publisher: Routledge

Practicing and academic Israeli architects, along with scholars of history, geography, and art from there and elsewhere, critically examine the inherent nexus between ideology and the construction of a sense of place, and explore the role of architecture and planning as efficient yet polemic practices that serve the hegemonic agenda. The two interrelated themes on which their studies pivot are the role of architects and planners, architecture and planning as mediators between national ideology and the politicization of space; and how the very act of shaping the landscape contributes to the construction of a sense of place. The Apartheid Wall is not mentioned

Our Magnificent Bastard Tongue

A survey of the quirks and quandaries of the English language, focusing on our strange and wonderful grammar Why do we say “I am reading a catalog” instead of “I read a catalog”? Why do we say “do” at all? Is the way we speak a reflection of our cultural values? Delving into these provocative topics and more, Our Magnificent Bastard Language distills hundreds of years of fascinating lore into one lively history. Covering such turning points as the little-known Celtic and Welsh influences on English, the impact of the Viking raids and the Norman Conquest, and the Germanic invasions that started it all during the fifth century ad, John McWhorter narrates this colorful evolution wit...
