Synopsis

The monograph is a summary of methods used to study pain receptors and the results obtained in some experiments designed to study the effect of non-opioid analgesics. The molecular mechanisms of nociceptive information control in primary sensory nociceptive neurons are described based on investigations of the membrane signaling cascade (opioid-like receptor → Na+,K+-ATPase → NaV1.8 channel) observed by the authors. Based on this data, the authors conclude that the modulation of NaV1.8 channels responsible for the coding of noxious signals can be carried out due to two novel targeting mechanisms. The first of these is the activation of opioid-like receptors; the second is the activation of Na+/K+-ATPase as a signal transducer. The development of a novel class of analgesics that trigger these mechanisms should lead to a successful solution to the problem of chronic pain relief.
Chapters of the monograph cover the general methods used in studying nociceptive pain (including the patch-clamp method), and the mechanism behind the binding of different ligands to these receptors such gamma-pyrones, gamma-pyridines and cardiotonic steroids.
This monograph is a valuable reference for neuroscientists, pharmacologists and allied researchers studying pain receptors for the development of safe and effective analgesics.

    Roman medicine was a blend of practical knowledge, religious beliefs, and influences from earlier civilizations, particularly the Greeks and Etruscans. While early Roman healing methods were deeply rooted in superstition, the expansion of the empire led to the adoption of more systematic medical practices. Over time, Roman medicine evolved into a structured system that combined natural remedies, surgical techniques, and public health initiatives. 
    Greek influence played a significant role in shaping Roman medical knowledge. Before Rome conquered Greece, healing in the Roman Republic was often associated with household remedies and religious rituals. However, as Greek physicians such as Archagathus and later Galen entered Rome, their advanced knowledge in anatomy, surgery, and pharmacology became widely accepted. Many Roman physicians were either trained by Greek mentors or studied Greek medical texts. Hippocratic principles, which emphasized observation and diagnosis, became foundational in Roman medical education. 
    Despite the growing reliance on scientific methods, religion and superstition remained integral to Roman healing practices. The Romans believed that diseases could be divine punishments or warnings from the gods. Temples dedicated to deities like Aesculapius, the god of medicine, served as healing centers where the sick sought divine intervention. Priests and healers performed rituals and sacrifices to appease the gods and cure ailments. Additionally, charms, amulets, and incantations were commonly used to ward off illness. Even as medical science progressed, many Romans continued to rely on religious customs for healing.

    Physics is the branch of science that seeks to understand the fundamental nature of the universe. It explores the properties of matter, energy, space, and time, and the interactions between them. From the smallest particles to the vastness of space, physics provides a framework for explaining how the world works. The discipline is built on the foundation of empirical observation, experimentation, and mathematical analysis. 
      
    At its core, physics is concerned with the laws that govern the behavior of objects, forces, and energy. These laws, which have been refined over centuries, are expressed in mathematical equations that predict outcomes with remarkable accuracy. Whether analyzing the motion of a falling apple or the behavior of distant galaxies, physics offers a universal language to describe the phenomena around us. One of its main goals is to uncover the underlying simplicity of nature, finding connections between seemingly different phenomena through the discovery of unifying principles. 
      
    The study of physics began in ancient civilizations, where early thinkers like Aristotle and Archimedes laid the groundwork for future developments. However, it wasn’t until the Renaissance period that physics began to emerge as a distinct scientific discipline, driven by figures such as Galileo Galilei and Isaac Newton. Newton's laws of motion and universal gravitation revolutionized the way we understand movement and forces, forming the basis for classical mechanics.

    Where the Seals Sing: Exploring...

    There are fewer grey seals in the world than endangered African elephants, but the British Isles host almost half of this global population. Every year these charismatic animals, with their expressive eyes and whiskers more sensitive than our fingertips, haul out on our shores to breed and raise their pups. 
    As graceful in the sea as they might seem clumsy on land, grey seals have visited our shores and enriched our culture for centuries. Yet we still know relatively little about these captivating animals. As Susan Richardson journeys to the crags and crevices of the coast, she explores the mysteries and mythologies of seals, learning not just how they live but also how we ought to live with them. 
    PRAISE FOR SUSAN RICHARDSON 
    ‘Cut and precise, archaic and innovative, transcendent and in-the-moment, [Richardson] sees the life of the sea as a mirror of ourselves, and vice versa: always changing, always the same … Vital, glorious and salutary’ 
    PHILIP HOARE, AUTHOR OF LEVIATHAN 
    ‘[Richardson] writes in prehensile language, capable of grasping something vast, ancient, chthonic: the Earth in must’ 
    JAY GRIFFITHS, AUTHOR OF WILD 
    ‘Richardson beautifully marries the landscape of the polar regions with their – and her own – emotional topography’ 
    SARA WHEELER 
    Susan Richardson has always been entranced by seals; they seem to have surfaced at key junctions throughout her life, comforting her as an anxious child, bringing joy as she began to spread her wings as a writer and helping her to find her way after the loss of her mother. Now she sets out to trace the rhythm of their lives, travelling the coasts clockwise from Cornwall to Norfolk, in line with the autumn pupping season. Along the way she explores the myths surrounding seals, from their shapeshifting selkie skins to the claims that they decimate fish populations, and she discovers that the greatest dangers they face come from co-existing with us. 
     Brimming with vivid descriptions of the natural world, Where the Seals Sing is a lyrical tale of memory, rescue and rehabilitation. While loss, both personal and ecological, is a recurring theme, the human–seal connection that flows through the story is stirring and uplifting. 
    In this award-winning exploration of coastal ecosystems and the relationships between humans and wildlife, Richardson delves into the world of zoology and folklore, shedding light on the often misunderstood creatures of the shorelines. Her narrative, steeped in science and social commentary, is a testament to the resilience of nature and the enduring bonds of family. 
    For fans of Chloe Dalton (Raising Hare), Thomas Halliday (Otherlands), Natalie Sanders (The Last Sunset in the West), Wyl Menmuir (The Heart of the Woods), and Samantha Harvey (The Shapeless Unease).
