Nonequilibrium atmospheric pressure plasma jets (N-APPJs) generate
plasma in open space rather than in a confined chamber and can be
utilized for applications in medicine. This book provides a
complete introduction to this fast-emerging field, from the
fundamental physics, to experimental approaches, to plasma and
reactive species diagnostics. It provides an overview of the
development of a wide range of plasma jet devices and their
fundamental mechanisms. The book concludes with a discussion of the
exciting application of plasmas for cancer treatment. The book
provides details on experimental methods including expert tips and
caveats. covers novel devices driven by various power sources and
the impact of operating conditions on concentrations and fluxes of
the reactive species. discusses the latest advances including
theory, modeling, and simulation approaches. gives an introduction,
overview and details on state of the art diagnostics of small scale
high gradient atmospheric pressure plasmas. covers the use of
N-APPJs for cancer applications, including discussion of
destruction of cancer cells, mechanisms of action, and selectivity
studies. XinPei Lu is a Chair Professor in the School of Electrical
and Electronic Engineering at Huazhong University of Science and
Technology. Stephan Reuter is currently Visiting Professor at
Universite Paris-Saclay. In a recent Alexander von Humboldt
research fellowship at Princeton University, he performed ultrafast
laser spectroscopy on cold plasmas. Mounir Laroussi is Professor of
Electrical and Computer Engineering and director of the Plasma
Engineering and Medicine Institute at Old Dominion University. He
is a Fellow of IEEE and recipient of an IEEE Merit Award. DaWei Liu
is Professor in the School of Electrical and Electronic Engineering
at Huazhong University of Science and Technology.

The introduction of low temperature plasma technology to medical
research and to the healthcare arena in general is set to
revolutionise the way we cure diseases. This innovative medium
offers a valid and advantageous replacement of traditional
chemical-based medications. Its application in the inactivation of
pathogens in particular, avoids the recurrent problem of drug
resistant microorganisms. This is the first book dedicated
exclusively to the emerging interdisciplinary field of plasma
medicine. The opening chapters discuss plasmas and plasma
chemistry, the fundamentals of non-equilibrium plasmas and cell
biology. The rest of the book is dedicated to current applications,
illustrating a plasma-based approach to wound healing,
electrosurgery, cancer treatment and even dentistry. The text
provides a clear and integrated introduction to plasma technology
and has been devised to answer the needs of researchers from
different communities. It will appeal to graduate students and
physicists, engineers, biologists, medical doctors and biochemists.
Postcolonial Counterpoint is a critical study of Orientalism and
the state of Francophone and postcolonial studies, examined through
the lens of the historical and cross-cultural relations between
France and North Africa. Thoroughly questioning the inability of
Western academia to shake free of universalism and essentialism and
come to grips with the Orientalism within postcolonial discourse,
Farid Laroussi offers a cultural tour d'horizon which considers
Andre Gide's writing on Algeria, literature by French authors of
Maghrebi descent, and the conversation surrounding secularism and
the headscarf in France. A provocative investigation of the place
of Muslims and Islam in Francophone culture, Postcolonial
Counterpoint asks how we must proceed if postcolonial studies is to
make a difference in reconciling history, identity, citizenship,
and Islam in the West.
