Madness and Genetic Determinism - Patrick D. Hahn - Bog - Springer Nature Switzerland AG - Plusbog.dk

Madness and Genetic Determinism - Patrick D. Hahn - Bog - Springer Nature Switzerland AG - Plusbog.dk

The book covers important topics in the psychiatric genetics (PG) field. Many of these have been overlooked in mainstream accounts, and many contemporary PG researchers have omitted or whitewashed the eugenic and "racial hygiene" origins of the field. The author critically analyzes PG evidence in support of genetic claims which, given the lack of gene discoveries, are based mainly on the results of psychiatric twin and adoption studies. Given that the evidence in favor of genetic influences is much weaker than mainstream sources report, due to serious issues in twin and adoption research, the author points to environmental factors, including trauma, as the main causes of conditions such as schizophrenia.

Children Beware! - Filipa Antunes - Bog - McFarland & Co Inc - Plusbog.dk

Children Beware! - Filipa Antunes - Bog - McFarland & Co Inc - Plusbog.dk

How does a culture respond when the limits of childhood become uncertain? The emergence of pre-adolescence in the 1980s, which is signified by the new PG-13 rating for film, disrupted the established boundaries between childhood and adulthood. The concept of pre-adolescence affected not only America''s pillar ideals of family and childhood innocence but also the very foundation of the horror genre''s identity, its association with maturity and exclusivity. Cultural disputes over the limits of childhood and horror were explicitly articulated in the children''s horror trend (1980-1997), a cluster of child-oriented horror titles in film and other media, which included Gremlins, The Gate , the Goosebumps series, and others. As the first serious analysis of the children''s horror trend, with a focus on the significance of ratings, this book provides a complete chart of its development while presenting it as a document of American culture''s adaptation to pre-adolescence. Each important children''s horror title corresponds to a key moment of ideological negotiation, cultural power struggles, and industrial compromise.

The Process Approach to Personality - Gudmund J.w. Smith - Bog - Springer-Verlag New York Inc. - Plusbog.dk

The Process Approach to Personality - Gudmund J.w. Smith - Bog - Springer-Verlag New York Inc. - Plusbog.dk

Some Implications of the Perceptgenetic Studies We should be most grateful to Professor Gudmund Smith for this compilation of studies on perceptgenesis (PG). Smith and his colleagues at Lund University are part of a small insurgency in psychology that has worked gamely and in relative obscurity to document the presence of subjective phases in the process leading to a perceptual object and the infrastructure of this process in the person­ ality. Smith describes ingenious methods to probe this hidden undersurface, and of a perceptual object is, in the ordinary demonstrate that the experiential content an object sense, pre-perceptual. That is, the feeling, meaning and recognition of are not attached to things out there in the world after they are perceived, but are phases ingredient in the process through which the perception occurs. To most psychologists, this statement would appear so radical as to be hardly worth refuting. A subjective approach to perception undermines the realism, consensual validation, and objectivity of a descriptive science of the mind. It is much simpler to interpret the ''psychic contribution'' to object perception as an addition to physical nature. However, the idea that objects are assemblies of sensory bits linked to feeling and meaning, associated to memories for recognition and interpretation and then projected back into the world where we see them, though at first blush appealing to common sense, is so implausible that one is mystified by its universal acceptance.

Crop Improvement - - Bog - Taylor & Francis Ltd - Plusbog.dk

Crop Improvement - - Bog - Taylor & Francis Ltd - Plusbog.dk

Crop Improvement: Biotechnological Advances – Biomedical Science The field of biotechnology is advancing at a fast pace. The availability of low-cost DNA/genome sequencing technologies has led to the discovery and functional characterization of myriad of genes imparting stress tolerance and quality traits. The ‘omics’ group of technologies including genomics, proteomics, transcriptomics and metabolomics has revolutionized the agricultural biotechnology sector. The Nobel Prize-winning technology, such as the genome editing technique, is being employed to edit various gene functions in plants aiding in crop improvement. This technology may be adopted very quickly by consumers compared with the transgenic technique because the genome-edited plants have no adverse effects on the genome of the plant itself and on the environment and related species/non-target organisms. In this book, authors have attempted to compile the latest techniques of agricultural biotechnology and their applications in crop improvement. Certain chapters have been dedicated to describe the use of nanotechnology, a fast emerging new technique in the agriculture sector. Features - - Development, potential and safety issues in biotechnology - - - Advances in genomics, proteomics and transcriptomics in agriculture - - - Protein bioinformatics and its applications - - - Genetically modified (GM) technology and its implications - - - Genome editing in crop improvement - - - Marker-assisted selection (MAS) in crop improvement - - - Mutation breeding - - - Cryobiotechnology - - - Nanotechnology and biosensors - This book includes real-world examples and applications making it accessible to a broader interdisciplinary readership. We hope that it will serve as a reference book for researchers engaged in molecular biology and biotechnology and will act as a ready reckoner for postgraduate (PG) students in the biotechnology discipline.
