Summary

"Japan's Samurai Path" masterfully chronicles the remarkable transformation of Japan's warrior class from provincial fighters to sophisticated rulers who shaped one of history's most distinctive feudal societies. This comprehensive study spans eight centuries, revealing how samurai influence extended far beyond military matters to fundamentally reshape Japanese culture, governance, and social structures.The book traces three pivotal periods: the samurai's emergence as a military-political force (1185-1333), the development of shogunate governance (1333-1573), and the integration of samurai culture into Japan's institutional framework (1573-1868). Drawing from newly translated documents and archaeological findings, it illustrates how warrior houses created sophisticated administrative systems that balanced central authority with local autonomy, while adapting Chinese bureaucratic practices to fit Japanese traditions.Through a careful blend of military history, cultural analysis, and political examination, the narrative explores how samurai influence permeated multiple aspects of Japanese society, from legal frameworks to urban planning. The work stands out for its use of primary sources, including battle accounts and personal correspondence from samurai leaders, providing readers with direct insights into the warrior class's decision-making processes. This approach, combined with recent archaeological discoveries, offers fresh perspectives on how samurai governance shaped Japan's development and left lasting impressions that extended well into the Meiji Restoration and beyond.

    Obesity is becoming one of the preeminent public health concerns, with prevalence increasing throughout the world.
    Covering many aspects of contemporary obesity research, this timely book by some of the leading experts in the field explores issues relating to the biology, diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of obesity, including childhood obesity. The work is attuned to the needs of those living with obesity, with a chapter devoted to
    the harm caused by weight stigma and false narratives around lifestyle choices.
    'Obesity, the other pandemic of the 21st century' reviews the available evidence to prove that obesity should be considered not just as a key contributor towards other comorbidities, but as a disease by itself. Importantly, the effect of the COVID-19 pandemic on obesity is addressed, which raised the complexity and severity of the obesity and should be a call to action for the prevention and early treatment of this disease. This book has been developed by World Obesity Federation collaborators, and is aimed at healthcare practitioners, academics, policymakers, students, patients living with obesity and all those impacted by the issue.
    The research covered in these pages goes some way towards proving that obesity is quickly becoming 'the other pandemic' of the 21st century. Much like any major pandemic, the consequence of inaction is truly alarming.
