Over the past two decades, due to dramatic advances in molecular and cell biology, biochemistry, and genetics, our view on mitochondria as a relatively static cellular powerhouse has changed radically. We now know that these organelles play a critical role in the normal and in the damaged heart. Written by Dr. José Marín-García, Director of the Molecular Cardiology and Neuromuscular Institute, Mitochondria and Their Role in Cardiovascular Dise...

The rapid expansion of research activity in all disciplines of science and technology and the concomitant growth in the number of scientific publications have caused a con­ siderable strain on library budgets. Even well-endowed libraries find it too expensive to collect all scientific journals. Research workers therefore often find it difficult to discover the extent and nature of work done on a particular molecule. Moreover, liter­ ature sear...

This book provides practical clinical guidelines and describes adherence enhancement techniques for health care professionals dealing with noncompliant patients.

These plenary lectures from the "Global Reggae” conference convened at the University of the West Indies, Mona, Jamaica in 2008 eloquently exemplify the breadth and depth of current scholarship on Jamaican popular music. Radiating from the Jamaican centre, these illuminating essays highlight the "glocalization” of reggae - its global dispersal and adaptation in diverse local contexts of consumption and transformation.

Defects in cell death pathways promote tumor development and progression, with potentially devastating consequences for cancer patients.  Greater understanding of the defects occurring in cancer cells, and the unique characteristics of tumors which can make them vulnerable to cell death stimuli, offers tremendous opportunities for developing novel and effective anti-cancer therapies.  In Cell Death in Cancer Biology and Treatment leading exper...
