Автор: Dole?al Название: Anatomy, Age and Ecology of High Mountain Plants in Ladakh, the Western Himalaya ISBN: 3319786970 ISBN-13(EAN): 9783319786971 Издательство: Springer Рейтинг: Цена: 232910.00 T Наличие на складе: Есть у поставщика Поставка под заказ. Описание: This aesthetically unique book combines ecological, morphological and anatomical, as well as phylogenetic studies on plant material in a largely unexplored dry mountain region above the timberline. It offers the first comparative analysis of hundreds of plants - annuals, perennial herbs and dwarf shrubs - in an area of 87,000 km2 at altitudes from 2600 to 6150 m above sea level in the Western Himalaya. Characteristic landscape pictures of all major vegetation types and maps show at which locations and altitudes the individual species of vascular plants are distributed, while macroscopic plant pictures and plant age are related to high-quality micro-sections and micro-photographs. The anatomical features of 345 dicotyledons were characterized using the published coding systems and those of 155 monocotyledones were characterized on the basis of a newly developed key. The number of annual rings and anatomical features of the xylem and phloem of dicots are compared and related to different ecological conditions within this extremely dry and cold environment. The ecological and anatomical characterization is used to create a phylogenetic tree based on nucleotide sequences, and indicates which features are genetically stable and which ones are modified by environmental factors.The book appeals to scientists in the fields of plant taxonomy, morphology, anatomy and ecology.

Описание: "Western Medicine", "Alternative Medicine", "Complementary Medicine", "Holistic Medicine", and "Natural Medicine." There is really only one "medicine" that heals and puts the whole patient, not the disease, at the center of care: Integrated Medicine. This practice integrates all modalities of healing to produce not merely a medical cure, but a deeper healing of the patient on his or her own terms.The Clinical Practice of Complementary, Alternative, and Western Medicine is a scientifically based text that informs and leads the practitioner easily through the maze of alternative therapies. Unlike other books that address the different alternative modalities, this text integrates homeopathy, acupuncture, chinese herbology, western herbology, and clinical nutrition, then combines them with traditional medicine. The author explains the new paradigm of patient-centered and Integrated Medicine and includes an extensive section on the physical underpinnings of this new paradigm, a paradigm that employs thermodynamics, non linear dynamics, chaos theory, and fractal geometry in an easy to understand discourse.The book incorporates the author's fundamental training in the alternative modalities and his ten years of clinical practice, a practice in which multiple integrated modalities of healing were utilized in the healing of over 10,000 patients. The Clinical Practice of Complementary, Alternative, and Western Medicine is a tremendously valuable reference for practitioners who want to learn about and practice alternative therapies and those who want to be more informed about what their patients may be doing and taking, and the influences those self-administered therapies may be having on their care.

"Chinese Medicine Revisited". Where the Chinese Tradition meets with Western Thinking. This book explores the fundamental theories of Chinese Medicine as seen by an MD, trained both in Western and Oriental Medicines. The principals of the Chinese Medical thought and the various dialectical systems are explained and de-mystified. The physical and especially the energetic structure of the body and the channel systems are described in detail. The notions of health and disease are analyzed from a modern medical perspective. The greater part of the book deals with the very original Chinese diagnostic system which is explored and developed in a practical manner, with numerous charts and color tongue photos. Further emphasis is put on constitutional and temperamental evaluations. The last chapter, in collaboration with various experts in their fields, offers an overview of the four pillars of Chinese therapy: Acupuncture and its adjunct methods (moxibustion, cupping, Guasha, plum-blossom hammer, blood-letting), Herbology and diet, Tuina-massage and Qigong. Touching also on other Chinese practices that have, over the years, been associated with health, such as Cultivation of the Mind, Astrology, Feng Shui and the Yi Jing. The book is very well referenced and documented, and by its thoroughness and simplicity, it offers an excellent tool for the beginner as well as the advanced practitioner who can discover here a source of coherent correlations and explanations of the complex Chinese concepts often missing in the standard text-books. Chinese Medicine Revisited could even be recommended as an in-depth introduction for the lay-person, in helping them realize the true "Holistic" dimension of Chinese Medicine, its philosophical background and the basic theoretical concepts as well as the detailed overview of the therapeutic range of its various methods and their clinical indications.

Описание: The hypersexual female ghost continues to be a source of fascination in East Asian media, much like the sexually predatory vampire in American and European culture. But while vampires can be of either gender, erotic Chinese ghosts are almost exclusively female. The significance of this gender asymmetry in Chinese literary history is the subject of Judith Zeitlin`s meticulously researched new book.
