Sinopsis

Air Quality Issues examines the pressing challenges of urban air pollution, emphasizing the critical need for effective environmental monitoring and strategies to safeguard public health. The book argues for a data-driven approach, highlighting the sources and composition of urban air pollutants, and correlating these pollutants with human health outcomes. Did you know that air pollution can lead to respiratory illnesses and cardiovascular diseases? The book provides a historical overview of air pollution incidents that shaped current environmental regulations and scientific understanding, setting the stage for a comprehensive analysis.

 
Beginning with atmospheric chemistry and toxicology, the book systematically builds an understanding of the interactions between air pollutants and human physiology. It analyzes primary and secondary sources of air pollution, assesses environmental monitoring methodologies, and reviews epidemiological evidence. The book stands out for its practical approach, avoiding sensationalism while presenting objective evidence to inform decision-making in urban environments.

 
It will be useful to students, public health professionals, urban planners, policymakers, and concerned citizens.
Disponible desde: 22/02/2025.

    The Englishman Harrison Weir organized the first cat show in England in 1871. In 1887 he founded the National Cat Club and was its first President and Show Manager until his resignation in 1890.Our Cats and all about them is concerned with cats and all about them. It describes numerous breeds of cats and what to look for in a cat show champion, and deals with the general management and common diseases of cats, as well as how to raise healthy kittens. But there is also a hodge podge of cat related stories, games, nursery rhymes, superstitions, as well as a list of cat lovers and a chapter of "The Cat in Shakespeare". (Summary by Availle)

    "Bioinformatics Guide: A Comprehensive Guide to Bioinformatics Techniques and Tools" is an indispensable resource for students, researchers, and professionals eager to master the rapidly evolving field of bioinformatics. This guide offers an in-depth exploration of the fundamental techniques and cutting-edge tools that are transforming how we analyze and interpret complex biological data. 
    Starting with the basics, the book covers essential concepts in molecular biology, including the central dogma and the structure and function of DNA, RNA, and proteins. It then delves into advanced topics such as genomics, transcriptomics, proteomics, and metabolomics, providing a thorough understanding of these critical areas. 
    Readers will gain valuable insights into sequencing technologies, from traditional Sanger sequencing to the latest advancements in next-generation and third-generation sequencing. The book discusses the advantages and limitations of various sequencing platforms and their applications in research and medicine. 
    The guide also addresses genome assembly and annotation, detailing the algorithms and strategies used to assemble genomes and predict genes, functional elements, and regulatory regions. It explores sequence alignment and homology searching, explaining the algorithms behind these processes and their applications in evolutionary studies. 
    In the realm of structural bioinformatics, readers will learn about protein structure prediction methods, molecular visualization tools, and the resources available in protein structure databases. The book further covers phylogenetics and evolutionary analysis, including methods for constructing phylogenetic trees and the molecular clock hypothesis.

    Some investigators have argued that emotions, especially animal emotions, are illusory concepts outside the realm of scientific inquiry. However, with advances in neurobiology and neuroscience, researchers are demonstrating that this position is wrong as they move closer to a lasting understanding of the biology and psychology of emotion. In Affective Neuroscience, Jaak Panksepp provides the most up-to-date information about the brain-operating systems that organize the fundamental emotional tendencies of all mammals. Presenting complex material in a readable manner, the book offers a comprehensive summary of the fundamental neural sources of human and animal feelings, as well as a conceptual framework for studying emotional systems of the brain. Panksepp approaches emotions from the perspective of basic emotion theory but does not fail to address the complex issues raised by constructionist approaches. These issues include relations to human consciousness and the psychiatric implications of this knowledge. The book includes chapters on sleep and arousal, pleasure and fear systems, the sources of rage and anger, and the neural control of sexuality, as well as the more subtle emotions related to maternal care, social loss, and playfulness. Representing a synthetic integration of vast amounts of neurobehavioral knowledge, including relevant neuroanatomy, neurophysiology, and neurochemistry, this book will be one of the most important contributions to understanding the biology of emotions since Darwin's The Expression of the Emotions in Man and Animals.
