Book excerpt: Excerpt from Human Vitality and Efficiency Under Prolonged Restricted Diet It has not been the custom of the Nutrition Laboratory to direct its researches primarily for economic and sociological purposes; yet in View of its long-continued study of people with a low intake of food and conceivably low metabolism, and the not remote possibility that America might be obliged to undergo privations similar to those in Germany, although probably in less degree, it seemed eminently fitting for the Laboratory to study a question so important from the stand points of patriotism, economy, and physiology, as the effect upon the metabolism of a reduction in diet. The extensive research which is reported in this publication is, in the last analysis, a furthering of the initial problem studied by the Nutrition Laboratory, i. E., a search for conditions resulting in subnormal metabolism. It was planned in detail in the spring of 1917 and carried out during the winter of 1917 - 18 with a selected group of normal individuals whose body-weight was lowered as a result of quantitative reductions in their diet. Before giving the details and discussing the results of this research, a general history will be given of the experimental work leading up to the present study, together with brief abstracts and a critique of the work of other investigators on metabolism with a low intake of food.

Download or read book What It Means to be Human written by Joanna Bourke and published by Catapult. This book was released on 2013-07-23 with total page 481 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1872, a woman known only as "An Earnest Englishwoman" published a letter titled "Are Women Animals?" in which she protested against the fact that women were not treated as fully human. In fact, their status was worse than that of animals: regulations prohibiting cruelty against dogs, horses, and cattle were significantly more punitive than laws against cruelty to women. The Earnest Englishwoman's heartfelt cry was for women to "become–animal" in order to gain the status that they were denied on the grounds that they were not part of "mankind." In this fascinating account, Joanna Bourke addresses the profound question of what it means to be "human" rather than "animal." How are people excluded from political personhood? How does one become entitled to rights? The distinction between the two concepts is a blurred line, permanently under construction. If the Earnest Englishwoman had been capable of looking 100 years into the future, she might have wondered about the human status of chimeras, or the ethics of stem cell research. Political disclosures and scientific advances have been re–locating the human–animal border at an alarming speed. In this meticulously researched, illuminating book, Bourke explores the legacy of more than two centuries, and looks forward into what the future might hold for humans, women, and animals.

This book was released on 2009-04-09 with total page 674 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As the older adult population continues to grow, so will the prevalence and incidence of age-related disorders. In Handbook of Clinical Nutrition and Aging, Second Edition, the editors and contributors (a panel of recognized academic nutritionists, geriatricians, clinicians and scientists) have thoroughly updated and revised their widely acclaimed first edition with fresh perspectives and the latest scientific and clinical developments in age-associated disease. New chapters tackle ecological perspectives on adult eating behavior, and behavioral theories applied to nutritional therapies in aging, while topics such as Sarcopenia and Cachexia are discussed in greater detail. The authors outline the physiological basis for each disorder, provide the latest information about the interaction of nutrition with these conditions, and review the potential routes and mechanisms for clinical intervention. Timely and authoritative, Handbook of Clinical Nutrition and Aging, Second Edition is a unique, comprehensive resource and will prove a valuable guide to all nutritionists, physicians, nurses, dietitians, and speech-language and occupational therapists who provide care for the rapidly expanding aging population.
