Progress in Clinical Parasitology
Author: Tsieh Sun
Publisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 1461227321
Category : Medical
Languages : en
Pages : 220
Book Description
This volume, now the third in a series, presents a more hetero geneous content than previous issues. It covers two previously rare but now common opportunistic infections in the United States, a common parasitic disease in Japan, exciting but difficult problems in developing a malarial vaccine, a study exemplifying the role of T lymphocytes in parasitic infections, and a fascinating review of the relationship between the schistosomes and their molluscan hosts. The first chapter covers cryptosporidiosis, which has become a household name since the outbreak of the acquired immunodeficien cy syndrome (AIDS). However, infection is now recognized to occur widely in immunocompetent individuals, with clustering of infection among veterinary students, laboratory workers, children in day care centers, and family members. It can also be the cause of traveler's di arrhea and nosocomial infection. Indeed, Cryptosporidium has be come recognized as the leading protozoal cause of diarrhea world wide. This chapter provides a concise, yet comprehensive, review on aspects of epidemiology, microbiology, clinical features, diagnosis, and treatment of this important disease. Recent in vitro studies of Cryptosporidium, conducted in Dr. Flanigan's and other laboratories, are described. They complement the extensive clincial experience of Dr. Soave, who summarizes her many articles in this field. The second chapter describes another common opportunistic infec tion among AIDS patients, toxoplasmosis. This disease differs from cryptosporidiosis in that it was recognized as a common infection in immunocompetent individuals even before the AIDS outbreak.

Food Production and Nature Conservation
Author: Iain J. Gordon
Publisher: Taylor & Francis
ISBN: 1317509536
Category : Nature
Languages : en
Pages : 369
Book Description
Feeding the world's growing human population is increasingly challenging, especially as more people adopt a western diet and lifestyle. Doing so without causing damage to nature poses an even greater challenge. This book argues that in order to create a sustainable food supply whilst conserving nature, agriculture and nature must be reconnected and approached together. The authors demonstrate that while the links between nature and food production have, to some extent, already been recognized, until now the focus has been to protect one from the impacts of the other. Instead, it is argued that nature and agriculture can, and should, work together and ultimately benefit from one another. Chapters describe efforts to protect nature through globally connected protected area systems and illustrate how farming methods are being shaped to protect nature within agricultural systems. The authors also point to many ways in which nature benefits agriculture through the ecosystem services it provides. Overall, the book shows that nature conservation and food production must be considered as equally important components of future solutions to meet the global demand for food in a manner that is sustainable for both the human population and the planet as a whole.

The Natural History of Creation
Author: Michael Anthony Corey
Publisher: Rowman and Littlefield
ISBN: 9780819199232
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 474
Book Description
The Natural History of Creation is the third and final installment in M.A. Corey's natural theology series. This remarkable trilogy has worked in tandem with the findings of modern science to help spearhead the rebirth of the once-dead natural theology movement. In this detailed, yet easy to read work, the author focuses on the religious account of creation found in Genesis One and comes to the astonishing conclusion that there is indeed much scientific truth to be found in this ancient work. Many other writers have also noticed the breathtaking parallels that exist between modern evolutionism and the creation account given in the Bible, but nowhere will the reader find a more thorough description of them than in The Natural History of Creation. - Back cover.

Power Healing
Author: Leo Galland, M.D.
Publisher: Random House
ISBN: 0307779386
Category : Health & Fitness
Languages : en
Pages : 383
Book Description
Dr. Leo Galland, along with Doctors Bernie Siegel and Andrew Weil, has been a pioneer in the emerging field of integrated medicine, which combines the best of alternative and conventional treatments. He is also a renowned medical detective, successfully curing patients whose illnesses have defied prior diagnosis and treatment. In Power Healing, Dr. Galland shares his breakthrough medical philosophy and program of healing, developed over the course of three decades of education and practice. He explains how you can apply four healing strategies that will help your body restore its own rightful balance and health: 1) build healthy relationships—community is the most powerful healing force; 2) create a customized prescription for diet, rest, and exercise; 3) purify your external environment; and 4) detoxify your internal environment to help your body protect and cleanse itself. Included for the first time in this edition is a dynamic new questionnaire Dr. Galland has created to help you hone in on your medical priorities. Filled with practical advice on detecting unsuspected causes of our sickness, building resistance to disease, and harnessing our own bodies’ natural desire to heal, Dr. Galland’s innovative book represents mind/body medicine at its best. For those whose illnesses haven’t responded to treatment or resist diagnoses, or for anyone who craves a higher level of health, Power Healing is essential reading. Praise for Power Healing “If I were to get sick, this is the doctor I would go to see and the book I would read.”—Robert C. Atkins, M.D., author of Dr. Atkins’ Vita-Nutrient Solution “A triumph. The most comprehensive book I have ever seen about promoting all aspects of wellness. Well organized, easy to read, and suitable for the layperson and health professional alike.”—Total Health “Dr. Galland’s invaluable advice has been a great help to me. I’m delighted that others will at last have the benefit of his wisdom in their search for healing.”—Carol Burnett “The medicine of the future will embrace and integrate the best of conventional and alternative approaches to health and healing. Dr. Galland makes a compelling argument that sickness is most effectively treated when the particular needs and underling psychological, emotional, and environmental issues are addressed.”—Dean Ornish, M.D.
