All too plausibly, it seems, popes and scientists are warning us of
impending collapse-yet humanity and our fellow creatures could
still be looking forward to a long and glorious future: at least a
million years of peace and personal fulfilment, with abundant and
diverse wildlife. But to achieve this we need to re-think
everything that we do and take for granted, from the day-to-day
mundanities of growing and cooking, to the economy and methods of
governance, to the most arcane reaches of science and metaphysics.
It all amounts to nothing less than a Renaissance-a re-birth-and
the Renaissance to come must be driven and led by us, ordinary Joes
and Jos, because the oligarchy of governments, corporates,
financiers, and their attendant intellectuals who now dominate the
world have largely lost touch with the moral and ecological
realities of life. The transformation won't be easy but-the good
news!-millions of grassroots initiatives of all kinds the world
over are already moving in the right directions.
Discusses the clinical application of functional foods for the
management of a wide range of chronic diseases Covers chronic
diseases including Obesity, Arthritis, Cardiovascular Diseases, and
Endocrinal and Hormonal Diseases, among others. Explores beneficial
effects of nutraceuticals in chronic diseases *pending Vol 2
features
This book addresses various clinical and sub clinical applications
of antioxidant nutraceuticals, with a primary focus on preventive
use for general wellness, common ailments, and such chronic
illnesses as cancer and neurological applications. This unique book
captures the applications of natural antioxidants, which have been
used for thousands of years in Traditional Chinese Medicine and
Ayurvedic Medicine as well as modern nutraceuticals formulations.
It covers antioxidant applications in clinical scenarios including
the historical perspective, basic antioxidant properties and
applications, anti-inflammatory properties, and antioxidant
applications in a variety of clinical conditions.
This book (hardcover) is part of the TREDITION CLASSICS. It
contains classical literature works from over two thousand years.
Most of these titles have been out of print and off the bookstore
shelves for decades. The book series is intended to preserve the
cultural legacy and to promote the timeless works of classical
literature. Readers of a TREDITION CLASSICS book support the
mission to save many of the amazing works of world literature from
oblivion. With this series, tredition intends to make thousands of
international literature classics available in printed format again
- worldwide.
This book presents state-of-the-art research advances in the field
of biologically inspired cooperative control theories and their
applications. It describes various biologically inspired
cooperative control and optimization approaches and highlights
real-world examples in complex industrial processes.
Multidisciplinary in nature and closely integrating theory and
practice, the book will be of interest to all university
researchers, control engineers and graduate students in intelligent
systems and control who wish to learn the core principles, methods,
algorithms, and applications.
Recent improvements in healthcare delivery due to innovative
technological advancements have redefined fields of biomedical
science now allowing for enhanced information management, resource
allocation, and quality assurance. Biocomputation and Biomedical
Informatics: Case Studies and Applications provides a compendium of
terms, definitions, and explanations of concepts, processes, and
acronyms in this significant medical field of study. Featuring
chapters authored by leading international experts, this
unsurpassed collection provides a defining body of research
indispensible to medical libraries, researchers, and institutions
worldwide.

This edited, multi-author volume contains selected, peer-reviewed
contributions based on the presentations given at the 21th
International Workshop on Quantum Systems in Chemistry, Physics,
and Biology (QSCP-XXI), held in Vancouver, Canada, in July 2016.
This book is primarily aimed at scholars, researchers and graduate
students working at universities and scientific laboratories and
interested in the structure, properties, dynamics and spectroscopy
of atoms, molecules, biological systems and condensed matter.
Most biologists use nonlinear regression more than any other statistical technique, but there are very few places to learn about curve-fitting. This book, by the author of the very successful Intuitive Biostatistics, addresses this relatively focused need of an extraordinarily broad range of scientists.
