Gerade in Formationsphasen neuer wissenschaftlicher Disziplinen und Forschungsgebiete sind die Austauschbeziehungen zwischen dem Schönen und dem Wahren, zwischen der Literatur und der Wissenschaft besonders intensiv. Zum einen spielen literarische und rhetorische Verfahren in der Produktion des einschlägigen Wissens eine konstitutive Rolle. Zum anderen beziehen ästhetische Debatten, poetologische Bestimmungen und einzelne literarische Texte wesentliche Impulse aus den emergierenden Wissenschaften. Der vorliegende Band geht diesen Wechselwirkungen am Beispiel des Wissens vom Leben nach, wie es sich im langen 19. Jahrhundert entwickelt hat. Damals konstituierte sich das Leben allererst als epistemisches Objekt, und es wurde in der Literatur und Ästhetik nicht weniger thematisiert, bearbeitet und reflektiert als in der Wissenschaft, insbesondere in der aufkommenden Biologie. Die hier versammelten Beiträge analysieren jenes weitverzweigte und spannungsvolle Feld des Lebenswissens unter besonderer Berücksichtigung der Dynamisierungstendenzen, die die moderne Vorstellung dessen, was Leben eigentlich sei, maßgeblich prägen.

From the test tube to the galaxy's limits, this title gives an in-depth research into the origins of life ending with theories on the planet Tiamat, the hypothetical planet purportedly able to create the necessary conditions for its existence.

Le temps est un facteur intrinseque de la vie humaine et il englobe chacune des experiences ephemeres de nos existences. Cet ouvrage projette un eclairage nouveau sur la nature et la portee de ses moments uniques et marquants de la vie humaine. In vivo explore des questions fondamentales et des moments cruciaux de l'existence humaine -- l'entree en interaction avec une culture etrangere, la decision de se sortir d'une condition de vie routiniere ou malheureuse, une action genereuse posee dans un contexte quotidien ordinaire -- en fonction de leur potentiel de transformation de l'existence. En recourant à des illustrations tirees de la vie reelle et d'oeuvres de fiction, Gabor Csepregi revele le rôle primordial des sentiments personnels dans le façonnement de la vie humaine et demontre le pouvoir formateur de la spontaneite en dehors du contexte traditionnel de l'education formelle. Ces moments, et notamment la façon dont ils perturbent l'ordre temporel ordinaire constituent des experiences vecues de notre vitalite.

Humans have eaten nuts for thousands of years, yet their consumption was discouraged just a few decades ago due to their high-fat content. This perspective began to change in the early 1990s due to seminal publications from the Adventist Health Study, which showed that nut consumption significantly improved heart health-related outcomes. Many randomized clinical trials, epidemiological studies, and in vitro/in vivo mechanistic studies have since explored the role of eating nuts and its relation to health. Similarly, dried fruits have been scrutinized due to their concentrated sugar content despite their non-sodium micronutrient and fiber density. Due to accumulating evidence on nut and dried fruit intake and health outcomes, an international scientific meeting was organized for leading experts to examine and recapitulate in detail what is well known and established and what avenues of knowledge are still lacking in nut and dried fruit research. This book summarizes proceedings from this international scientific meeting and the latest information relating to: (1) energy balance and body weight; (2) insulin resistance and diabetes; (3) lipoproteins and dyslipidemia; (4) gastrointestinal system; (5) inflammation and oxidation; (6) cardiovascular disease; (7) cognition; (8) cancer; (9) dried fruit and health; (10) future lines of research. These findings highlight the beneficial health potentials of nuts for researchers, health professionals, other stakeholders, and the public while simultaneously pinpointing areas for further investigation to continue informing and guiding health practices and policies.

This edited volume discusses the identification, discovery, characterization, structure determination and modeling of multicomponent macromolecular complexes, and as such, it fully complements the first volume (ISBN 978-3-319-27214-6), which targeted methods of recombinant production of protein complexes. This book is divided in 8 sections offering a selection of technologies widely used in the characterization of protein and protein-nucleic acid complexes for different purposes and at different scales. From native electrophoresis methods, that are accessible to any reasonably well-equipped laboratory, to the sophisticated setup required for structure determination by cryo-electron microscopy or X-ray crystallography, this book contains a wide variety of clearly explained analytic and preparative approaches, connected with the production techniques developed on the previous volume. The readers will find an integral connection between this book and the first volume, which ensures a comprehensive and updated discussion of the main topics of the discipline. Taken together, these volumes constitute a cohesive and authoritative source of the research on multicomponent macromolecular complexes. In here, we focus on characterization of protein complexes in the broadest sense, which is not typically covered in other sources. Moreover, all chapters are carefully written by world renowned scientists and active researchers, making this volume ideal, not only as a reference source, but also as a companion book for the daily laboratory work. This book is aimed for a wide range of scientists, from science students to experienced researchers, working on protein and protein-nucleic acid complexes, who need a thorough understanding of protein production and complex characterization. .

While many books strive to stimulate thinking through provocative anecdotes and theories, Why Are We Created? takes a different path. It begins with a question and continues with a multitude of questions like these: What is the importance of recognizing the presence of the sacred within us and around us? How can individuals create a purposeful and fruitful way of life? How does happiness relate to one's purpose?The intent of these questions is to encourage thoughtfulness, observation, and research that enlarges understandin
