Download or read book The Alzheimer Conundrum written by Margaret Lock and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2015-10-20 with total page 328 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Why our approaches to Alzheimer's and dementia are problematic and contradictory Due to rapidly aging populations, the number of people worldwide experiencing dementia is increasing, and the projections are grim. Despite billions of dollars invested in medical research, no effective treatment has been discovered for Alzheimer's disease, the most common form of dementia. The Alzheimer Conundrum exposes the predicaments embedded in current efforts to slow down or halt Alzheimer’s disease through early detection of pre-symptomatic biological changes in healthy individuals. Based on a meticulous account of the history of Alzheimer’s disease and extensive in-depth interviews, Margaret Lock highlights the limitations and the dissent associated with biomarker detection. Lock argues that basic research must continue, but should be complemented by a public health approach to prevention that is economically feasible, more humane, and much more effective globally than one exclusively focused on an increasingly harried search for a cure.

Download or read book The English Bunny written by Kamiya Maini and published by Kamiya Maini. This book was released on 2020-10-22 with total page 162 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: English is a global language spoken worldwide by nearly 400 million native speakers and 750 million people of different ethnicities as a second language, making it the largest spoken language in the world. While there are multiple dialects and accents including North American, British English, Australian, African and Asian to name a few, it can often be interpreted by people using a different dialect and accent which makes communicating in English, one of the most essential skills to have. Being able to read, write, speak and understand English is necessary for business, travel, education, career and for maintaining international relations. The most successful people in the world have mastered their communication skills in English. It helps them have a better life not only professionally but also personally. These people can express themselves better and maintain good relations with their family and friends. Every language comprises of two parts – grammar and vocabulary. While grammar can be learnt at schools, colleges, universities, private institutions or using English grammar books, learning vocabulary and being able to remember it and utilize it in everyday communication has always been a challenge. Dictionaries have been the oldest and most basic source of learning English vocabulary. They provide word meanings and sentences. Thesaurus provides synonyms of words. Other English books provide antonyms, idioms and phrases. But all these serve more as a reference than a learning source since memorizing a plethora of words from these sources is almost impractical. And yet most books for competitive exams in the market today list thousands of words and meanings and expect people to memorize them. Institutes and Universities encourage people to read novels or fiction books voraciously in the hope that people will be able to improve their vocabulary. What they fail to understand is readers must read hundreds of books to learn hundreds of words. There is never a certainty that the books they read will have a disjoint set of words. Even if they do, it will only take several years before a reader will be able to master hundreds of words. In order to resolve the above conundrum and make it convenient for readers to learn thousands of words with just one book and in a span of only two to three months, an attempt has been made in the form of The English Bunny. The English Bunny is a collection of short stories and prides itself on covering close to 2500 words and their meanings in just about 150 pages with 1 story per page and each story not exceeding 20 lines. Like never before, The English Bunny is here to revolutionize the way you learn and improve your English Vocabulary. If you are a student preparing for any competitive exam like GMAT, GRE, TOEFL, IELTS, MCAT, SAT or ACT, you are hard pressed on time and would want to master a lot of words in a short span of time. The English Bunny will help you memorize these words in a sure shot fun way with very little effort. If you are a business professional, looking to enhance your communication skills by improving your vocabulary, The English Bunny will help you in your pursuit.

Download or read book Plagues in World History written by John Aberth and published by Rowman & Littlefield Publishers. This book was released on 2011-01-16 with total page 257 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Plagues in World History provides a concise, comparative world history of catastrophic infectious diseases, including plague, smallpox, tuberculosis, cholera, influenza, and AIDS. Geographically, these diseases have spread across the entire globe; temporally, they stretch from the sixth century to the present. John Aberth considers not only the varied impact that disease has had upon human history but also the many ways in which people have been able to influence diseases simply through their cultural attitudes toward them. The author argues that the ability of humans to alter disease, even without the modern wonders of antibiotic drugs and other medical treatments, is an even more crucial lesson to learn now that AIDS, swine flu, multidrug-resistant tuberculosis, and other seemingly incurable illnesses have raged worldwide. Aberth's comparative analysis of how different societies have responded in the past to disease illuminates what cultural approaches have been and may continue to be most effective in combating the plagues of today.
