Free Download Parasite and Disease Spread by Major Rivers on Earth: Past and Future Perspectives by Heinz Mehlhorn
English | EPUB | 2019 | 452 Pages | ISBN : 3030290603 | 248.1 MB
This book focuses on waterborne pathogens and significant diseases occurring along major rivers around the globe, including key examples like the Amazonas, Mekong River and Nile. Written by leading international experts, it offers unique insights into local riverine infection risks in times of global warming, and addressing these through advances in diagnosis, health management and the development of simple but effective control measures. It also sheds light on why former societies collapsed due to transmitted diseases during periods of climate change, droughts and floods, to help establish effective preventive measures for the future.

Free Download What Bugged the Dinosaurs?: Insects, Disease, and Death in the Cretaceous by George Poinar Jr., Roberta Poinar
English | January 6, 2008 | ISBN: 0691124310 | True PDF | 280 pages | 174 MB
Millions of years ago in the Cretaceous period, the mighty Tyrannosaurus rex-with its dagger-like teeth for tearing its prey to ribbons-was undoubtedly the fiercest carnivore to roam the Earth. Yet as What Bugged the Dinosaurs? reveals, T. rex was not the only killer. George and Roberta Poinar show how insects-from biting sand flies to disease-causing parasites-dominated life on the planet and played a significant role in the life and death of the dinosaurs.

Free Download N. Cary Engleberg MD, Terence Dermody PhD, Victor DiRita PhD, "Schaechter’s Mechanisms of Microbial Disease"
English | 2012 | ISBN: 0781787440 | PDF | pages: 846 | 137.4 mb
Schaechter’s Mechanisms of Microbial Disease provides students with a thorough understanding of microbial agents and the pathophysiology of microbial diseases. The text is universally praised for "telling the story of a pathogen" in an engaging way, facilitating learning and recall by emphasizing unifying principles and paradigms, rather than forcing students to memorize isolated facts by rote. The table of contents is uniquely organized by microbial class and by organ system, making it equally at home in traditional and systems-based curricula. Case studies with problem-solving questions give students insight into clinical applications of microbiology, which is ideal for problem-based learning.

Free Download Synaptic Plasticity: Dynamics, Development and Disease By Ulrich Thomas, Stephan J. Sigrist (auth.), Michael R. Kreutz, Carlo Sala (eds.)
2012 | 622 Pages | ISBN: 3709109310 | PDF | 11 MB
This book introduces the current concepts of molecular mechanisms in synaptic plasticity and provides a comprehensive overview of cutting-edge research technology used to investigate the molecular dynamics of the synapses. It explores current concepts on activity-dependent remodeling of the synaptic cytoskeleton and presents the latest ideas on the different forms of plasticity in synapses and dendrites. Synaptic Plasticity in Health and Disease not only supplies readers with extensive knowledge on the latest developments in research, but also with important information on clinical and applied aspects. Changes in spine synapses in different brain disease states, so-called synaptopathies, are explained and described by experts in the field. By outlining basic research findings as well as physiological and pathophysiological impacts on synaptic plasticity, the book represents an essential state-of-the-art work for scientists in the fields of biochemistry, molecular biology and the neurosciences, as well as for doctors in neurology and psychiatry alike.
