Handbook of Neurotoxicity (2nd Edition) English | 2022 | ISBN: 3031150791 | 2551 Pages | PDF (True) | 50 MB This handbook is a reference source for identifying, characterizing, instructing on use, and describing outcomes of neurotoxin treatments - to understand mechanisms associated with toxin use; to project outcomes of neurotoxin treatments; to gauge neurotoxins as predictors of events leading to neurodegenerative disorders and as aids to rational use of neurotoxins to model disease entities. Neuroprotection is approached in different manners includingthose 1) afforded by therapeutic agents - clinical and preclinical; or 2) by non-drug means, such as exercise. The amorphous term 'neurotoxin' is discussed in terms of the possible eventuality of a neuroprotectant producing an outcome of excess neuronal survival and a behavioral spectrum that might produce a dysfunction - akin to a neurotoxin's effect. This new edition significantly expands on the information provided in the first edition, providing the latest research in neurotoxicity and highlighting the relationship between specific neurotoxins and the neurodegenerative disorders they can cause. It also includes new sections on the neurotoxicity of heavy metals, fungi, and snake venom. The Handbook of Neurotoxicity is thus an instructive and valuable guide towards understanding the role of neurotoxins/neurotoxicity in the expansive field of Neuroscience, and is an indispensable tool for laboratory investigators, neuroscientists, and clinical researchers.  Gödel's Incompleteness Theorems (Elements in Philosophy and Logic) by Juliette Kennedy English | April 14, 2022 | ISBN: 1108986994 | 90 pages | PDF | 1 MB This Element takes a deep dive into Gödel's 1931 paper giving the first presentation of the Incompleteness Theorems, opening up completely passages in it that might possibly puzzle the student, such as the mysterious footnote 48a. It considers the main ingredients of Gödel's proof: arithmetization, strong representability, and the Fixed Point Theorem in a layered fashion, returning to their various aspects: semantic, syntactic, computational, philosophical and mathematical, as the topic arises. It samples some of the most important proofs of the Incompleteness Theorems, e.g. due to Kuratowski, Smullyan and Robinson, as well as newer proofs, also of other independent statements, due to H. Friedman, Weiermann and Paris-Harrington. It examines the question whether the incompleteness of e.g. Peano Arithmetic gives immediately the undecidability of the Entscheidungsproblem, as Kripke has recently argued. It considers set-theoretical incompleteness, and finally considers some of the philosophical consequences considered in the literature.

González, Miguel Ángel López-Manchado English | PDF,EPUB | 2023 | 440 Pages | ISBN : 3031184270 | 61.2 MB This book presents a review of preparation methods for environmentally friendly nanocomposite materials. It describes the combination of biodegradable and biocompatible polymer matrices with nanoparticles, leading to finished products preferably prepared by sustainable methods. The chapters also describe how the addition of synthetic or non-biodegradable particles can influence the properties of the final products. This book presents a general overview of the process from the preparation to the final applications of green nanocomposites. In addition, the book also details the trends, challenges, and prospects of this type of composites.  Lowell Edmunds, "Greek Myth " English | ISBN: 3110682338 | 2021 | 220 pages | PDF | 1367 KB This new series aims to provide state of the art guides to research in Classical Studies (across the fields of Language and Literature, Ancient History, Archaeology, and Ancient Philosophy and Science) that explore the key themes and ideas shaping previous scholarship on individual authors, genres, and topics.  Great Minds in Regional Science, Vol. 2 by Peter Batey, David Plane English | PDF,EPUB | 2023 | 269 Pages | ISBN : 3031134397 | 18 MB This book is the second volume in a new series on 'Great Minds in Regional Science,' which seeks to present a contemporary view on the scientific relevance of the work done by great thinkers in regional science. This volume presents, among others, Adam Smith, Johann Heinrich von Thünen, and Alan Wilson. Each chapter combines factual biographical information about the 'Great Mind,' a description of their major contributions, and a discussion of the broader context of their work, as well as an assessment of its current relevance, scientific recognition, and policy impact. The book attempts to fill a gap in our knowledge and to respond to the growing interest in the formation and development of the field of regional science and its key influential figures.

Go Machine Learning Projects: Eight projects demonstrating end-to-end machine learning and predictive analytics applications in Go by Xuanyi Chew  Glycolipids: Methods and Protocols by Kazuya Kabayama, Jin-ichi Inokuchi English | PDF,EPUB | 2023 | 306 Pages | ISBN : 1071629093 | 48.8 MB This detailed volume presents a variety of specialized analytical methods on a wide range of glycolipids. From sphingoglycolipids to lipid A, an immune system stimulant present in lipopolysaccharide, the book delves into how glycolipid structure on the surface of the cell membrane, which characterizes each organism, is crucial for the coexistence or repulsion between organisms. In addition, glycolipids play an important role in infections in animals and other organisms by targeting host cell membranes, if enveloped viruses are considered as living organisms. Written for the highly successful Methods in Molecular Biology series, chapters include introduction to their respective topics, lists of the necessary materials and reagents, step-by-step and readily reproducible laboratory protocols, as well as tips on troubleshooting and avoiding known pitfalls. |
