The Czech-Brazilian philosopher Vilem Flusser (1920-1991) has been
recognized as a decisive past master in the emergence of
contemporary media theory and media archeology. His work engages
and also rethinks several mythologies of modernity, devising new
methodologies, experimental literary practices, and expanded
hermeneutics that trouble traditional practices of
literary/literate knowledge, shared experience, reception, and
communication. Working within an expanded concept of modernism,
Flusser presciently noted the power inherent in algorithmic
information apparatuses to reshape our fundamental conceptions of
culture and history. In an increasingly technological world,
Flusser's form of experimental theory-fiction pits philosophy
against cybernetics as it forces the category of "the human" to
confront the inhuman world of animals and machines. The
contributors to Understanding Flusser, Understanding Modernism
engage with the multiplicity of Flusser's thought as they provide a
general analysis of his work, engage in comparative readings with
other philosophers, and offer expanded conceptualizations of
modernism. The final section of the volume includes an extended
glossary clarifying the playful terminology used by Flusser, which
will be a valuable resource for experts and students alike.
Neuroendocrinology is a discipline which originated about 50
years ago as a branch of Endocrinology and that is now strictly
linked to neuroscience.
Volumes 181 and 182 of Progress in Brain Researchprovide a rapid
view of the major points presently discussed at biological and
clinical levels.
The chapters have been written by top scientists who are
directly involved in basic or clinical research and who use the
most sophisticated biotechnological techniques.
The volumes cover of the role of genetics in many
endocrine-related events, like neuroendocrinological diseases and
endocrine depenedent cancers (prostate, breast, etc, ). Interesting
information is also provided on possibile treatments of
neurodegenerative brain diseases (e.g., Alzheimer and similar
syndromes).
The best researchers in the field provide their conclusions in
the context of the latest experimental results
Chapters are extensively referenced to provide readers with a
comprehensive list of resources on the topics covered
Of great value for researchers and experts, but also for
students as a background reference"

'In the past two decades there has been considerable work on global
climatic change and its effect on the ecosphere, as well as on
local and global environmental changes triggered by human
activities. From the tropics to the Arctic, peatlands have
developed under various geological conditions, and they provide
good records of global and local changes since the Late
Pleistocene.
The objectives of the book are to analyze topics such as geological
evolution of major peatlands basins; peatlands as self sustaining
ecosystems; chemical environment of peatlands: water and peat
chemistry; peatlands as archives of environmental changes;
influence of peatlands on atmosphere: circular complex
interactions; remote sensing studies of peatlands; peatlands as a
resource; peatlands degradation, restoration, plus more.'
* Presents an interdisciplinary approach, with an emphasis on Earth
Science, and addresses the need for intergration between
subdisciplines and the developing of new approaches
* Synthesizes the evolutionary, ecological, and chemical
characteristics of major peatlands, as well as focuses on the
environmental changes, from climate changes to surface ares changes
due to human activities
* Covers topical studies of worldwide interest and provides
examples from many different countries
