Book excerpt: The police department of Eugene, Oregon, has just made a grisly discovery: the remains of famous mystery writer Jackson Chadwick. All that's left is a human outline of ash, a lower unattached foot, and a ring with the square and compass insignia of the Freemasons. Detective James McCullough can't help but be shocked by the crime scene's resemblance to alleged cases of the phenomenon known as spontaneous human combustion. With no leads on the crime, McCullough finds an ally with another investigator, Father Anthony Rispoli, who is looking into a similar case of alleged spontaneous human combustion involving a well-known Chicago professor. They soon realize that both victims were members of the same Seven-Six Order of the Freemason Lodge in New York City. What they uncover is nothing short of chilling. The lodge was engaged in macabre rituals and bloodletting contracts with the devil himself. With two members dead under such strange circumstances, is the devil coming back to collect? And will the lodges remaining four members be next? Rispoli and McCullough must race against time to save not only the men's lives but their very souls.

Download or read book Effects of Pollution on Fish written by Andrew J. Lawrence and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2008-04-15 with total page 368 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The impact of pollution on fisheries and the potential health implications of eating contaminated fish are areas of considerable concern for the fishing and aquaculture communities, government bodies and the general public. Pollution, as well as over fishing, may well be contributory to recent serious declines in global fish stocks. Effects of Pollution on Fish brings together the work of many international experts each of whom have examined the literature on marine and freshwater fish and, where appropriate, invertebrates, to produce comprehensive chapters covering all major aspects of the impacts of pollution on fish and fisheries. The book describes these impacts in detail, from the molecular and sub-cellular level, through organism to population and community levels, and subsequently to socio-economic implications. The editors of this thorough and timely book have drawn together contributions encompassing molecular genetics, biochemistry, physiology, population and community biology, and fishery economics. As such, this important book will be of great use and interest to students and professionals studying and teaching in all those subject areas. Fish biologists, environmental scientists and ecotoxicologists, marine and freshwater ecologists, fisheries managers, aquaculture personnel and fish farmers, as well as fish veterinarians will all find much of great value within this book. Libraries in universities and research establishments concerned with these areas should all have copies of this book on their shelves.

Download or read book Breast Cancer in Women of African Descent written by Olufunmilayo I. Olopade and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2010-05-28 with total page 395 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although there are numerous technical-scientific books on breast cancer in the global bibliography, such books deal exclusively with the nature of the disease in majority populations of the Western societies, with little or no reference to the nature of the disease in the minority populations in such societies. Similarly, the nature of breast cancer in black women of the less privileged societies, and in women of ethnic groups living in countries of similar socio-economic status, is virtually unknown. For various epidemiological reasons, breast cancer incidence is rapidly increasing in these counties, more so than currently is the case in developed countries. Thus, the global burden of cancer is shifting gradually to these areas of the world, and may equal or even surpass the breast cancer burden in the Western societies within the foreseeable future. This book is unique because it bucks the trend of virtually all other breast cancer books by addressing specifically the breast cancer experience of women of African descent and their lifestyle counterparts in other societies of the world.

All that is left of the famed novelist is a human outline of ash, a lower unattached foot, and a ring with the "square and compass" symbol of the Freemasons. Detective James McCullough can't help but be shocked by the crime scene's resemblance to alleged cases of the phenomenon known as spontaneous human combustion. With no leads for the supposed crime, McCullough finds an ally with another investigator, Father Anthony Rispoli, who is looking into a similar case of alleged spontaneous human combustion involving a well-known Chicago area professor. They soon realize that both victims were members of the same Seven-Six Order of the Freemason Lodge in New York City. What they uncover is nothing short of chilling. The lodge was engaged in macabre rituals and bloodletting contracts with the devil himself. With two members dead under such strange circumstances, is the devil coming back to collect? And will the lodge's remaining five members be next? Rispoli and McCullough must race against time to save not only the men's lives but their very souls.

Download or read book Brain effects of Nicotine and derived compounds written by Valentina Echeverria Moran and published by Frontiers E-books. This book was released on with total page 98 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Epidemiological studies have associated tobacco consumption with a lower incidence of Alzheimer’s disease (AD) and Parkinson’s disease (PD). The neuroprotective effect of tobacco has been mainly attributed to the stimulation by nicotine of the a7 nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (nAChRs), which are implicated in neuronal survival, attention, and memory. A reduction in cholinergic function including lower levels of the expression of nAChRs in the hippocampus correlates with memory impairment in AD and schizophrenia. nicotine main metabolite cotinine shows similar neuroprotective and mnemonic properties. Also cotinine reduced Alzheimer’s pathology in a mouse model of the disease. Tobacco-derived compounds can be beneficial in a broad range of neurological disorders such as schizophrenia, AD, attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder, and PD as well as in diminishing tobacco withdrawal. In the latest years numerous new discoveries in this research area have been achieved and a Research Topic publication is needed.
Download or read book Sex and Gender Factors Affecting Metabolic Homeostasis Diabetes and Obesity written by Franck Mauvais-Jarvis and published by Springer. This book was released on 2017-12-08 with total page 630 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book provides a reference for years to come, written by world-renowned expert investigators studying sex differences, the role of sex hormones, the systems biology of sex, and the genetic contribution of sex chromosomes to metabolic homeostasis and diseases. In this volume, leaders of the pharmaceutical industry present their views on sex-specific drug discovery. Many of the authors presented at the Keystone Symposium on “Sex and gender factors affecting metabolic homeostasis, diabetes and obesity” to be held in March 2017 in Lake Tahoe, CA. This book will generate new knowledge and ideas on the importance of gender biology and medicine from a molecular standpoint to the population level and to provide the methods to study them. It is intended to be a catalyst leading to gender-specific treatments of metabolic diseases. There are fundamental aspects of metabolic homeostasis that are regulated differently in males and females, and influence both the development of diabetes and obesity and the response to pharmacological intervention. Still, most preclinical researchers avoid studying female rodents due to the added complexity of research plans. The consequence is a generation of data that risks being relevant to only half of the population. This is a timely moment to publish a book on sex differences in diseases as NIH leadership has asked scientists to consider sex as a biological variable in preclinical research, to ensure that women get the same benefit of medical research as men.
