Описание: The world of medicine interacts with biology, anatomy, chemistry and physiology. Thus, it takes an extremely talented scientist, scholar and researcher to unwrap and unravel the wonders and complexities of the human body and medical illness, pains and problems. This book attempts to do just that and explain how many biomedical scientists and researchers were able to discover and treat various medical conditions as well as provide insights into the therapeutic process. Some of the words readers will encounter in this book strike fear into the hearts of physicians and nurses everywhere -- cancer, gout, high cholesterol, catecholamines, viruses, bacteria, malaria, typhoid, and other ailments. Blood, cells, stem cells, insulin, the immune system and mutagenesis are all involved in the optimal functioning of the human body, yet the average person knows little about blood, the basic of the cell structure, how it operates and what it does in the human body in terms of promoting health and human functioning. Diabetes, Huntingtons, cancer are all ailments that impact the human species more or less and, in many instances, result in death. Yet who were the scientists that researched and discovered these ailments and maladies and how did they first analyze the relationship between these illnesses and the human body? Where did they come from? How did they occur? How can we address these illnesses and difficulties so as to live a fruitful robust life? We hear so much about the human genome continually in scientific circles, yet the general public has little understanding of it and in fact, the average citizen knows little about their genetic structure and how it has impacted their lives. Even physicians are only minimally trained in the complexities of genetics, but this text offers at least some introductory information as to this "brave new world" of the human genome and its relevance. Statins is a simple word but one that is imperative to understand and salient to our heart, continued existence and well-being. Homeostasis is, again, a simple word, yet we should learn about it and its importance in our daily functioning and understand it as a basic element of our existence. While it seems a basic concept, it is imperative for human optimal functioning. And of course, the cell -- one of the building blocks of the human body -- the surface of the cell, and all of the magical mysteries that revolve around this basic element of the human body, are important elements for scientists, scholars and researchers to understand and grasp. The book is a journey into the lives of famous scientists and scholars who went on to win the Nobel Prize, even though many were rejected by many medical schools. These scholars -- both men and women -- went on to achieve great things and survive difficulties, discrimination and dire straits. It is only right, just and proper that these famous men and women should be recognised for their contributions to science, medicine and humanity.

Описание: We are all born with the propensity to achieve, succeed, and thrive in our endeavours. We have certain skills, talents and abilities that can be nurtured, shaped, formed, and encouraged. The human species has a vast number of these talents, skills and abilities, and it remains a wonder as to how some individuals reach the pinnacle of perfection with their skills and talents, and why others remain simply mediocre. This book examines and explores the development of many realms of talent. We are privy to the domains of art, music, chess, and thinking. We explore and examine mathematical thinking, philosophical thinking as well as scientific thinking. The realms of the novice as well as the expert are explored and examined by some of the foremost thinkers of the current time period. This book brings together leaders in their respective fields from around the world to promote the skills and abilities that permeate their respective fields. Certain specific realms are also explored -- the game of chess -- the game of kings with innumerable moves, and sophisticated strategies is examined. The "magic synthesis" of creative thinking and metaphorical thinking, synthetic thinking and analogical thinking is also reviewed. Certain graduate realms are also reviewed. The training of graduate researchers in the development of hypothesis testing, reviewing literature, and learning methodology and the appropriate statistical methodology is also explored. And some interpersonal realms as well as intra personal domains are explored. Specifically, the training of the individuals that we know as "counsellors" is explored followed, by the domain of written expression. Also explained is the art of being able to communicate eloquently, in a sophisticated manner, energising, enervating and motivating others through the written word. This is the realm of talents, the domain of skills, and the area of abilities. We are all born with these propensities. However, bringing them to fruition is another area of concern, and exploration.

Описание: In search of a friendship with God, something wondrous happens. We live in a world where people are moving away from God, where too many of us have even stopped believing in him. We live in a world where people are moving away from each other, where too many of us embrace our divisions instead of our connections. It's a world where it seems that God could use another friend-and so could we. The gift of friendship-the human and the divine-is at the heart of Then Something Wondrous Happened. This collection of stories shows how God makes his goodness known through the surprising ways he puts people in our lives-and how they become the friends who sustain us, lift us and inspire us to reach for something more. Then Something Wondrous Happened also captures the stunning gift that God extends to each of us, a friendship marked by his desire to walk through this life with us while inviting us to share an eternal life with him. The choice is ours to accept God's remarkable offer of friendship-a friendship that promises to lead us to something wondrous. Will we? John Shaughnessy has been honored for "Individual Excellence as a Writer" by the national Catholic Press Association. Judges praised, "Shaughnessy has a knack for finding inspiring stories about the human condition and God's hand in our lives.... His storytelling is compelling, and he is truly a treasure..."

Описание: Over the past several hundred years, many women have made major, significant contributions to society, to their countries and to their field of endeavorabe it literature, music, art, politics or the enhancement of women in general. Many of these women have not received the acknowledgement and recognition that they deserve. This book is an attempt to rectify that deficiency. In a warm, storytelling fashion, the authors lay out the scenarios and contributions of fifty of the most famous women of history. These individuals have accomplished great things, not only in their time period, but often against great odds and difficulties. Students of history and students in general need to be aware of the contributions of these women. Certainly there are others that arguably could be included, but this is a first attempt to sensitize the students of this century to the great accomplishments of the women who came before them, and established a foundation for a just, equitable society wherein all women are valued, recognized and acknowledged. Students of history will find this panoramic overview a rich robust source of knowledge and proponents of womens issues will tend to recognize the grandeur and splendor of womens contributions to civilization and humanity in general.

Описание: Since the beginning of the twentieth century, hundreds of thousands of documents of all sorts have been unearthed in China, opening whole new fields of study and transforming our modern understanding of ancient China. While these discoveries have necessarily taken place in China, Western scholars have also contributed to the study of these documents throughout this entire period. This book provides a comprehensive survey of the contributions of these Western scholars to the field of Chinese paleography, and especially to study of oracle-bone inscriptions, bronze and stone inscriptions, and manuscripts written on bamboo and silk. Each of these topics is provided with a comprehensive narrative history of studies by Western scholars, as well as an exhaustive bibliography and biographies of important scholars in the field. It is also supplied with a list of Chinese translations of these studies, as well as a complete index of authors and their works. Whether the reader is interested in the history of ancient China, ancient Chinese paleographic documents, or just in the history of the study of China as it has developed in the West, this book provides one of the most complete accounts available to date.

Описание: The National Theatre’s years at the Old Vic were the most Shakespearean period in its history, one which included Laurence Olivier’s Othello and Shylock, a radical all-male As You Like It, the Berliner Ensemble’s Coriolanus and Tom Stoppard’s classic offshoot, Rosencrantz and Guildernstern are Dead. Drawing extensively upon the company archives, this book tells the interlinked stories of the National’s relationship with Shakespeare through a series of production case studies. Between them these illuminate Olivier’s significance as actor and director, the National’s pioneering accommodation of European theatre practitioners, and its ways of engaging Shakespeare with the contemporary.
