Alzheimer`s Disease

2008 y.
Publisher: Springer
Description: Alzheimer s disease (AD) is a neurodegenerative disease that robs the minds of our elderly population. Approximately one in every eight adults over the age of 65 and nearly half of those over 85 are afflicted with this disease. The aging population in developed societies will impose an ever increasing socioeconomic threat in the future. Current medicines for AD patients are mainly symptomatic treatments and a huge unmet medical need exists to slow the progression of this disease. A great deal of research has been dedicated to understanding the pathogenesis of AD from which comes many ideas for intervening with its progression. Some of these ideas have been fast-tracked to clinical trials due to the availability of medicines with proven clinical efficacies for other diseases (e.g. atorvastatin, simvastatin, rosiglitazone and clioquinol) while others represent novel chemical entities (e.g. glycogen synthase kinase-3 inhibitors). This volume will first review existing… [detailed...]

Amakudari: The Hidden Fabric of Japan`s Economy

2003 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Book DescriptionThe widespread migration of civil servants to high-profile positions in the private and public sectors is known in Japan as amakudari, or `descent from heaven.` Recent media stories associate the practice with corruption as the former officials seek government favors for their new employers. In their timely book, Richard A. Colignon and Chikako Usui offer the first systematic exploration of this influential yet poorly understood Japanese institution. Colignon and Usui analyze amakudari as a ministry-level phenomenon that is consciously constructed and reproduced with intricate networks in many political and corporate spheres. Drawing on five decades of qualitative and quantitative data delineating the post-retirement careers of leading bureaucrats, they examine changes in traditional job patterns. Although not as strong a force as in the 1960s and 1970s, amakudari, in their view, remains a critical feature of Japanese society and heavily shapes the relationship… [detailed...]

Amami

2007 y.
Publisher: Oscar Mondadori
Description: Tutto quello che facciamo, Io facciamo per essere amati. A ogni parola che pronunciamo ne fa da sottofondo un`altra: `Amami`. E una richiesta da accattoni sentimentali, ma e anche un comando a cui e impossibile ubbidire: perche non si puo obbligare nessuno ad amare. Massimo Giacon ha disegnato sessanta ritratti di singoli e coppie alle prese con il loro bisogno d`amore: situazioni ordinarie e scabrose, caratteri colti in pochi tratti o tratteggiati minuziosamente: sono personalitа piatte o complicate, comportamenti disarmanti e inauditi che mirano tutti a farsi voler bene. Tiziano Scarpa ha raccontato la loro storia, li ha descritti come inserzionisti alla ricerca di un`anima gemella. Il risultato e un libro insolito e profondo, che lascia una scia di duratura emozione. Per dire `Amami` in sessanta modi assolutamente nuovi. Формат издания: 12,5 см х 18 см. [detailed...]

Melanie and Fran, Amanda`s charmingly wisecracking old schoolfriends, simply can`t believe it when Amanda manages to get herself engaged to kind, decent Fraser-Mel`s old crush, and minor royalty, no less. Determined to save Fraser from a life sentence with the social-climbing Queen of Preen, Mel and Fran rally their eccentric crew of friends around them to help stop Fraser and Amanda from tying the knot with a rope that all but Fraser can see is a noose. Loaded with spot-on observations, razor-sharp wit, and entertaining characters who engage in hilariously memorable antics, AMANDA`S WEDDING is a riotously funny story of love, life…and the fine art of sabotage.

Dead these 4000 years, now she`s just an inanimate bundle of withered skin and desiccated bone. Or is she? When Barney the nightwatchman discovers that the mummy`s coffin has been broken open, it seems grave-robbers are at work. It`s a pity Barney and the guards can`t tell the authorities how the mummy came to be missing. But the dead can`t testify to anything. Now Amara is free again, driven by an ancient need that can only be assuaged at the cost of human life, and nothing can kill her - for she is dead already. Формат: 11 см x 17,5 см. [detailed...]

Amarna Diplomacy: The Beginnings of International Relations

2002 y.
Publisher: The Johns Hopkins University Press
Description: Published in 1992, William L. Moran`s definitive English translation, The Amarna Letters, raised as many questions as it answered. How did Pharaoh run his empire? Why did the god-king consent to deal with his fellow, mortal monarchs as equals? Indeed, why did kings engage in diplomacy at all? How did the great powers maintain international peace and order? In Amarna Diplomacy, Raymond Cohen and Raymond Westbrook have brought together a team of specialists, both social scientists and ancient historians, to explore the world of ancient Near Eastern statecraft portrayed in the letters. Subjects discussed include Egyptian imperial and foreign policy, international law and trade, geopolitics and decision making, intelligence, and diplomacy. This book will be of interest to scholars not only of the ancient Near East and the Bible but also of international relations and diplomatic studies. Contributors are Pinhas Artzi, Kevin Avruch, Geoffrey Berridge, Betsy M. Bryan, Raymond… [detailed...]

Amartya Sen`s Capability Approach : Theoretical Insights and Empirical Applications (Studies in Choice and Welfare)

2005 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Book DescriptionKuklys examines how Nobel Prize-winning economist Amartya Sen’s approach to welfare measurement can be put in practice for poverty and inequality measurement in affluent societies such as the UK. Sen argues that an individual’s welfare should not be measured in terms of her income, but in terms what she can actually do or be, her capabilities. In Chapters 1 and 2, Kuklys describes the capability approach from a standard welfare economic point of view and provides a comprehensive literature review of the empirical applications in this area of research. In the remaining chapters, novel econometric techniques are employed to operationalise the concepts of functionings and capability to investigate inequality and poverty in terms of capability in the UK. Kuklys finds that capability measurement is always a useful complement to traditional monetary analysis, and particularly so in the case of capability-deprived disabled individuals. [detailed...]
