Angiogenesis: Methods and Protocols (Methods in Molecular Biology, 2441) by Andrew V. Benest 2022 | ISBN: 1071620584 | English | 443 pages | EPUB | 108 MB This detailed book builds on the foundation of lymphatic protocols with tools to aid in the interpretation of large datasets created by angiogenesis research. For example, this includes protocols to explore how transcriptional phenotyping can be achieved, both in terms of exploring tissue-specific heterogeneity to the use of database mining of existing datasets. Similarly, bioinformatic techniques run alongside protocols for transcript analysis, cell biology, pathology, as well as physiological and developmental angiogenesis models. Written for the highly successful Methods in Molecular Biology series, chapters include introductions to their respective topics, lists of the necessary materials and reagents, step-by-step, readily reproducible laboratory protocols, and tips on troubleshooting and avoiding known pitfalls.  Charles L. Griswold, David Konstan, "Ancient Forgiveness: Classical, Judaic, and Christian" English | 2011 | pages: 276 | ISBN: 0521119480 | PDF | 1,0 mb In this book, eminent scholars of classical antiquity and ancient and medieval Judaism and Christianity explore the nature and place of forgiveness in the pre-modern Western world. They discuss whether the concept of forgiveness, as it is often understood today, was absent, or at all events more restricted in scope than has been commonly supposed, and what related ideas (such as clemency or reconciliation) may have taken the place of forgiveness. An introductory chapter reviews the conceptual territory of forgiveness and illuminates the potential breadth of the idea, enumerating the important questions a theory of the subject should explore. The following chapters examine forgiveness in the contexts of classical Greece and Rome; the Hebrew Bible, the Talmud, and Moses Maimonides; and the New Testament, the Church Fathers, and Thomas Aquinas.

After Brexit and Other Essays English | 2021 | ISBN: 1529217091 | 300 Pages | PDF | 3 MB 'Being more like America again and less like Europe is the heart of the UK model of capitalism ... ut there are many respects in which Britain remains unlike America despite its strong appeal to the British political class ...' In 'After Brexit' Andrew Gamble sets out the economic models and external relationships that Britain has pursued since the Second World War and examines the choices it now faces as it adjusts to life outside of the European Union. This volume brings together this essay with some of Andrew Gamble's most important and influential writings on British politics and political economy from the last forty years. They reflect on many of the issues that animate British politics, from the relative decline of the economy and the reshaping of the welfare state to the transformation of the Conservative and Labour parties and the changing constitutional order with the devolution of power to Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland. The volume is introduced by the author and includes his notes on each of the essays as well as an epilogue, which considers their original context and what has changed since. Taken together, the essays in this volume are testament to the acuity of one of Britain's foremost political thinkers and provide rich insight into debates and ideas that continue to influence British politics and Britain's place in the world. A companion volume of Andrew Gamble's essays, The Western Ideology and Other Essays, focusing on political ideas and ideologies, is also available from Bristol University Press.  Michael McEachrane, Paul Gilroy, "Afro-Nordic Landscapes: Equality and Race in Northern Europe" English | 2014 | pages: 284 | ISBN: 0415897432 | PDF | 1,5 mb Afro-Nordic Landscapes: Equality and Race in Northern Europe challenges a view of Nordic societies as homogenously white, and as human rights champions that are so progressive that even the concept of race is deemed irrelevant to their societies. The book places African Diasporas, race and legacies of imperialism squarely in a Nordic context. How has a nation as peripheral as Iceland been shaped by an identity of being white? How do Black Norwegians challenge racially conscribed views of Norwegian nationhood? What does the history of jazz in Denmark say about the relation between its national identity and race? What is it like to be a mixed-race black Swedish woman? How have African Diasporans in Finland navigated issues of race and belonging? And what does the widespread denial of everyday racism in Nordic societies mean to Afro-Nordics?
