biodiversity and ecosystem function

Hepatic Transplantation

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Williams, Richard H., PUBLISHER: W.B. Saunders Company, This concise monograph provides a thorough discussion of hepatic tranplantation and clinical management of Cyclosporine-treated patients. Emphasizes use of immunosuppressives and follow-up biopsy. The text explores problems related to Cyclosporine use--those unique to liver transplantation, those exaggerated in the liver transplant patient, and those seen with other uses as well. Discusses how specific conditions such as poor graft function, rejection, and infection affect liver function, and illustrates these phenomena with biopsy findings. Data are based on 70 transplants and over 400 liver biopsies.

Wild Solutions: How Biodiversity Is Money in the Bank

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Beattie, Andrew J. / Ehrlich, Paul R. / Turnbull, Christine, PUBLISHER: Yale University Press, We live on an unexplored planet, ignorant of more than eighty percent of the species that share our world. In this fascinating and abundantly illustrated book, two eminent ecologists discuss the biological diversity of the Earth, showing how the natural systems that surround us play an essential role in protecting our basic life-support systems. Andrew Beattie and Paul Ehrlich tell us about the millions of species providing ecosystem services that maintain the quality of our air and water and the fertility of the soil, dispose of domestic, industrial, and agricultural waste, and protect crops from pests. The authors also describe how biological diversity opens the way for new medicines, pharmaceuticals, construction materials and designs, and manufactured goods. They point to innovative industries that harness species for the biological repair of damaged landscapes, biological mining, biological pest control, and biomonitoring of the environment. The organisms upon which these activities are founded -- although often microscopic, obscure, or bizarre -- provide natural capital that is worth infinitely more than anyone has previously guessed. The authors urge us to protect the biological wealth of our Earth and keep it from being destroyed by human activity.

Gastrointestinal Functions

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Delvin, Edgard E. / Lentze, Michael J., PUBLISHER: Lippincott Williams & Wilkins, Written by internationally renowned clinical and biomedical investigators, this volume highlights recent advances in the understanding, diagnosis, and treatment of chronic and functional gastrointestinal disorders in children and adolescents. Coverage includes state-of-the-art guidelines on management of intractable diarrhea, malabsorption, esophageal dysfunction, celiac disease, autoimmune enteropathy, inflammatory bowel disease, and gut motility disorders. To further the reader's understanding of the pathophysiology of these conditions, the book presents current concepts on the assembly of brush border membranes, the role of extracellular matrix proteins in intestinal cell function, the structure-function relationships of intestinal disaccharidases, and the development and role of the gastric epithelium.

Management of Invasive Weeds

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Inderjit, PUBLISHER: Springer, Biological invasions are one of the major threats to our native biodiversity. The magnitude of biodiversity losses, land degradation and productivity losses of managed and natural ecosystems due to invasive species is enormous. The ecological and environmental aspects of non-native invasive plants are of great importance to (i) understand ecological principles involved in the management of invasives, (ii) design management strategies, (iii) find effective management solutions for some of the worst invaders, and (iv) frame policies and regulations. The objectives of this book are to discuss (i) ecological approaches needed to design effective management strategies, (ii) recent progress in management methods and tools, (iii) success and failure of management efforts for some of the worst invaders, and (iv) restoration and conservation of invaded land. In an effort to achieve these objectives, contributing authors have strived to provide up-to-date information on the management of non-native invasives. Chapters included in the book are peer-reviewed by international experts working in the area. Readers will get a unique perspective on ecological aspects of the management of invasives. The book will be useful to graduate students, researchers, managers and policy makers involved in the management of exotic invasives.

Warrant: The Current Debate

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Plantinga, Alvin, PUBLISHER: Oxford University Press, USA, Known for distinguished work in the fields of metaphysics and philosophy of religion, Alvin Plantinga ventures further into epistemology in this book and its companion volume, Warrant and Proper Function. Plantinga examines the nature of epistemic warrant; whatever it is that when added to true belief yields knowledge. This present volume surveys current contributions to the debate and paves the way for his own positive proposal in Warrant and Proper Function. This first volume serves as a good introduction to the central issues in contemporary epistemology. Acquista Ora

Phagocyte Function: A Guide for Research and Clinical

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Robinson, J. Paul / Babcock, George F., PUBLISHER: Wiley-Liss, Phagocyte Function A Guide for Research and Clinical Evaluation Edited by J. Paul Robinson and George F. Babcock Since , when the Nobel prize was awarded to two doctors who proposed the primary role of phagocytes in the body's defense system, this theory of cell function has steadily gained acceptance. In fact, the past fifteen years have seen phagocyte research blossom into a sophisticated tool for understanding the immune system. Today, the ability to evaluate the abnormalities of phagocytes--or cells that ingest foreign particles and debris--is integral to the treatment of AIDS, cancer, severe burns, and a host of cell diseases. Phagocyte Function is the first volume in an important new series that will embrace all cytometric methods. This authoritative text, featuring individual chapters written by leading researchers and clinicians, is designed to provide both novice and expert with a complete understanding of phagocyte function. The volume's extensive range covers everything from the basic concepts needed to understand phagocyte activity, to the clinical applications necessary for evaluation and diagnosis, including flow cytometry, confocal microscopy, and image analysis. This comprehensive reference manual includes: * The role of cellular receptors and signal transduction * New pathways for studying respiratory burst mechanisms * The functional role of monocytes/macrophages in health and disease, including clinical syndromes and macrophages in wound treatment * Single-source coverage that combines parallel research on both neutrophils and macrophages Phagocyte Function is an indispensable resource for clinical and biomedical researchers in the fields of cytometry, immunology, oncology, cell biology, and microbiology who routinely measure functional abnormalities of phagocytes. Phagocyte Function is as useful in the classroom as it is in the laboratory or clinic.

Behavior Adjustment Training: Bat for Fear, Frustration, and

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Stewart, Grisha, PUBLISHER: Dogwise Publishing, Think "functional" to solve your dog's reactivity issues Behavior Adjustment Training (BAT) was developed by author Grisha Stewart to rehabilitate and prevent dog reactivity. BAT looks at the function of growling, lunging, or fleeing and helps dogs learn socially acceptable behaviors that serve that same function. In a nutshell, BAT builds confidence by giving dogs a chance to learn to control their environment through peaceful means. That makes BAT very empowering to your dog or puppy, in a good way. It's also empowering for you, as you learn how to understand your dog and help him learn to safely get along with people, dogs, and other "triggers."
