Antioxidants have attracted immense interest of researchers because of their implied role in the protection of biological systems. Though all living organisms possess their own antioxidant defense systems, no one can disregard the importance of dietary or exogenous antioxidants as these have an important role in the prevention of a variety of diseases. Several studies have revealed that polyphenols play an important role in free radical scavenging and therefore produce various biological and pharmacological actions. Some evidence suggests that the biological ...

Marshall McLuhan argues that "the content of any medium is always another medium". In this work film music is regarded as a medium that is part of the medium film. The music used in Quentin Tarantino's Kill Bill is recycled and put into a new context, thus creating new meaning. The pre-existent soundtracks and pop songs already carry with them an outer cinematic context that then influences the reuse of them. Remediation, as David Jay Bolter has coined the term, also takes place on the relationship level of music and film.

This book is meant as a contribution to resolving the puzzle regarding the actual clout of pro-Israel U.S. special interest groups by studying their influence in relation to the Middle East Peace Process. This author builds on his first hand experiences of living in Palestine and the U.S., and analytical tools he has acquired by studying the role of United Nations in the Israeli-Palestinian conflict as well as U.S. history, politics and society. This study combines a qualitative analysis of U.S. official policies toward the Peace Process from 1991-2011, with ...

Today there is a paradigm shift in attitude towards online education, therefore, online learning compels mathematics education to change its focus, organization and use of technology. The belief that the concept of function should be a central point in mathematics is not a recent phenomenon. Many researchers have acknowledged the difficulties students face in learning the concept of function in face-to-face classroom. On the other hand, research studies have done little to examine students' knowledge of functions and their difficulties in an online environment. ...

Interactive theorem proving is the modern way of formalizing mathematics using a computer as a proof assistant, helping solve simple tasks and keeping an order on the proofs. Still, it is a tedious task, as such mechanical proofs contain detail that humans do not want to see. When it comes to the verification of real world applications in software engineering, as required for the assurance of safety and security properties of embedded systems, the level of detail becomes even more annoying. In fact, it is a gargantuan task to prove a program ...

Falls are a worldwide public health problem that mostly affects older people. The prevention of falls can be achieved through multiple factorial interventions, including the educational approach. This guide was developed according to health literacy demands in order to enhance adherence of older people to adopt the behaviors taught and therefore to prevent falls. It can be used by the general public or integrated in a multifactorial programme lead by professionals.

This book is timely because of the increasing popularity of minimally invasive and cost effective methods to ablate solid tumors. Medical image guided ablation using thermal energy sources such as radio-frequency, microwave, laser, high-intensity focused ultrasound, and cyrogenics have received much recent attention as minimally invasive strategies for the ablation of tumors.
This text describes novel and practical image registration methods and mathematical models to predict the cellular response from magnetic resonance (MR) images, which guide and monitor ...
