This book explains the fundamental characteristics and
biofunctionality of Alzheimer’s Disease drug targets and provides
up-to-date information on the full range of their biomedical
applications. An introductory section gives an overview of the
recent developments related to drug targets identified and studied
related to Alzheimer’s Disease and key developments from
preclinical and clinical studies focusing on various molecular
targets related to AD and dementia by subject experts all around
the globe. Here, individual chapters address the progress and
perspectives in human and non-human research, role of various
biomarkers as an overview, advanced gene therapy, and novel
compounds for therapeutic targets for Alzheimer’s disease. The
book will be essential reading for graduate students, scientists,
and engineers in any of the biomedical research fields in which
efforts are being made to utilize novel drug targets and develop
effective strategies for new drug targeting and delivery in
Alzheimer’s disease treatment.
Analytical tools and algorithms are essential in business data and
information systems. Efficient economic and financial forecasting
in machine learning techniques increases gains while reducing
risks. Providing research on predictive models with high accuracy,
stability, and ease of interpretation is important in improving
data preparation, analysis, and implementation processes in
business organizations. Machine Learning Techniques for Improved
Business Analytics is a collection of innovative research on the
methods and applications of artificial intelligence in strategic
business decisions and management. Featuring coverage on a broad
range of topics such as data mining, portfolio optimization, and
social network analysis, this book is ideally designed for business
managers and practitioners, upper-level business students, and
researchers seeking current research on large-scale information
control and evaluation technologies that exceed the functionality
of conventional data processing techniques.
Optical imaging is a rapidly emerging imaging technique that has
been successfjully translated into biomedical applications ranging
from clinical diagnosis to molecular biology. This book includes an
introductory section to explore various optical imaging devices and
their functionality and roles for biomedical applications such as
dermatology and ophthalmology. Recent developments as exemplified
with the authors research are explored in detail. In depth
discussion of other disease conditions and their diagnosis with
optical imaging techniques are also covered.

Diseases have a history, and understanding that history helps us
understand how best to treat and control disease today. Today's
students are confronted with a panoply of often-frightening
illnesses and afflictions - the Biography of Diseases series
provides students with the information that they need to understand
the origin of various maladies, how they impact contemporary
society, and how doctors and diseases researchers from around the
world are fighting to devise treatments to alleviate or cure these.
This volume, Rabies, examines that disease that caused fear and
panic for centuries because of the horror of dying of rabies and
the near certainty of death once one has contracted the disease.
And despite the famous vaccine discovered by Louis Pasteur in the
19th centuries, thousands still die of rabies every year in
developing countries. Rabies addresses all aspects of this
horrifying disease: BLThe history and epidemiology of rabies, and
the rabies epidemic among wild animals in the use. BLHow rabies is
diagnosed, and the frightening symptoms of hydrophobia and
aerophobia. BLHow one get rabies, mostly from bats and wild
animals. BLThe treatment of rabies -- there's basically none, with
few people who have ever survived once symptoms appear. BLResearch
and prevention of rabies. The volume includes a glossary of terms
and a bibliography of useful sources for learning more about the
disease.

Radar Remote Sensing: Applications and Challenges advances the
scientific understanding, development, and application of radar
remote sensing using monostatic, bistatic and multi-static radar
geometry. This multidisciplinary reference pulls together a
collection of the recent developments and applications of radar
remote sensing using different radar geometry and platforms at
local, regional and global levels. Radar Remote Sensing is for
researchers and practitioners with earth and environmental and
meteorological sciences, who are interested in radar remote sensing
in ground based scatterometer and SAR systems; air borne
scatterometer and SAR systems; space borne scatterometer and SAR
systems.

A book on agriculture microbiology should include a study of the
occurrence of microorganisms in the soil, their activities and
their role in soil processes. It is this last phase which has been
studied least and where the information available is far from
satisfactory in explaining what is taking place in the soil. This
is due largely to the limitations of the subject which depends for
its advance on botany, zoology, bacteriology, chemistry, including
biological and physical, and especially upon the advance of our
understanding of the physical and chemical conditions of the soil.
There are various kinds of audiences to which a book on soil
micro-biology may appeal. There is the scientific farmer who may
search for a better understanding of the processes taking place in
the soil, those processes which control the growth of his crops and
indirectly influence the growth of his animals. There is the
agronomist, who is interested in the fundamental reactions
controlling soil fertility.This book will be useful not only for
students, teachers, and researchers but also for those interested
in agriculture microbiology, plant pathology, ecology,
environmental science, and agronomy.
