The incidence of insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (100M) varies dramatically across racial groups and countries, with annual age-adjusted rates of approximately 40/100,000 per year in Finland, but only 0.51100,000 per year in China. Although reasons for these marked geographic differences are unknown, it is likely that genetic variations across populations play a m or role. To determine the contribution of genetic factors to the global patterns of 100M incidence, international comparative studies are now being undertaken as part of the WHO Multinational Project for Childhood Oiabetes, known as the DIAMOND Project. It is, therefore, necessary to develop and implement epidemiologic standards for these investigations which can be applied across populations. This will ensure that comparable data are obtained in all countries, and that relevant scientific questions can be properly addressed. The development of standards for molecular epidemiologic studies of 100M is the of the NATO Advanced Research Workshop. During this meeting at the objective University of Pittsburgh, scientists from across the world convened to discuss issues relating to the standardization of: 1. the collection of family history data to assess the risk of 100M in first degree relatives, 2. case-control molecular epidemiology studies of 100M susceptibility, 3. HLA family studies, 4. laboratory methods and ONA technology transfer for genetic marker evaluations.

R867 Discovery Miles 8 670 Ships in 10 - 15 working days

Fantastic Travelogue is speculative fiction, a phantasmic conversation between two literary giants, Mark Twain and C.S. Lewis. The talk and action are set in the dreamscape of creation--from creation's photonics and micro biology to its most outer energetic and cosmic origins. Other participants in the conversation include the Renaissance humanist and astronomer Johannes Kepler and the 19th century Scots romanticist George MacDonald. Together, rarely dropping the thread of story-telling and argumentation, throughout time and creation they range, sometimes losing themselves in the mystery and splendors encountered. By the author of Five Points Akropolis and The God's Cycle. Now with an introduction.

Like her namesake in Pilgrim's Progress, Chrischana Twitchell is fleeing a destructive life in a place she thinks of as the City of Destruction. With her three sons she returns to Gottheim, Maine, and an uncertain welcome in the Meguntic Mountains she loves. Called Gott'im by its inhabitants, this rural village and surrounding wilderness are changing with the influx of newcomers. Tensions between descendents of yankee settlers and those 'from away' have made it a place in transition where neighbors struggle to know one another in a real way. Return to God's House is the first book of The God's Cycle.

R408 Discovery Miles 4 080 Ships in 10 - 15 working days

GOTT'IM'S MONSTER 1808 is coming-of-age speculative fiction. A New England Gothic recasting of Mary Shelley's Frankenstein, Gott'im's Monster is part of The God's Cycle and is set in the mountains of Western Maine, 1808. Its fantastic elements sparse in beginning, The God's Cycle moves through its story in time and place with increasing mythic emphasis. If I had to reduce a complicated, vivid book to a one-liner, I'd say that Gott'im's Monster is a Maine-grown dialogue with Shelley's Frankenstein, opening up the arc with questions about how and why the irrational can irrupt into what we think of as rational life. The land and the town are as important as the individual characters, setting the reader up for an absorbing read. -Sherwood Smith, author of BLOOD SPIRITS and the Dobrenica series. This version of Gott'im's Monster is abridged, leaving out the townsfolk chorus of its1980s frame, within which the original 1808 story is pictured. Gott'im's Monster 1808 is the more compact tale.

An alternate future? An insecure past? Another present made of dense woodlands and waterways ... or of streets and buildings and crowds? Are its populations living beside one another in a welter of frequencies or wavelengths not generally experienced in Place and Time? What is FIVE POINTS AKROPOLIS? A particular place called Five Points Akropolis -- This is what Anno Domine 1769, 1900 A.D., and 2017 CE have in common. But what influence does the dwarf-wanderer Pluto have on its fortunes? One of many characters, Willie the grave-digger would like to know, and too Gregoff the Grak. So would True People's scouts Red Fox and Quick Claws. Jayrai, HBBBAH, and Tu are wondering--they want to get back to 2017, their own time. And little Quadri, whose flashing gaze is the pulse of the gamescape. But "the girl," who seems somehow responsible for all this, isn't saying anything. Three gangs of kids living on the same spot in different times, meeting up for the first time as Pluto descends.

MYSTERY GOTTHEIM God's Wilderness (Paperback): S Dorman MYSTERY GOTTHEIM God's Wilderness (Paperback)
S Dorman
R387 Discovery Miles 3 870 Ships in 10 - 15 working days

MYSTERY GOTTHEIM starts off the second theme in The God's Cycle, entitled God's Wilderness. Mystery Gottheim is a mid-mudseason night's dream. Its landscape is troubled under a burden of soot, falling ash, and drizzle-outpouring of a tire fire creating its own weather. Many of its characters become lost and disoriented in the woods and on the mountain slopes, some with loving partners. Here find apparitions and some scattered bones in an old deserted cemetery. A road appears to some and not to others, the well in a cellar falls to an abyss, a carriage house hides a mysterious vehicle. But, as in any good story, these happenings are not the true surprises. Truth-in-suspense is reserved for life-disturbing spiritual encounter, of the kind that we experience when facing ourselves darkly.

WITHIN WITHOUT God's House (Paperback): S Dorman WITHIN WITHOUT God's House (Paperback)
S Dorman

WITHIN WITHOUT is the second book in GOD'S HOUSE, the story of a rural Maine village in transition. Full of local color and character, it continues the story of Chrischana Twitchell's return to Gott'im, and introduces Peter Prince, her troubled common-law spouse who follows her from the desert to reclaim his family. As a stranger in Gottheim he experiences bitter truths, and redeeming hopes, about himself and the nature of life in God's House.
