Developing Sustainability, Developing the Self: An Integral Approach to International & Community Development
ISBN: 9781426901584 / Angielski / Miękka / 2009 / 148 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. This book explores an Integral Approach to community and international development, integrating previous practices to move into new arenas of action and inquiry. It suggests that development involves personal, collective and systemic transformation, and to work in these three areas effectively requires a broader and deeper approach to development broader in terms of including interior and exterior needs of humans, and deeper to more fully engage individual and collective transformation. The underlying premise is that all previous and current practices in development have important insights to...

Surviving Hypoxia: Mechanisms of Control and Adaptation
ISBN: 9780849342264 / Angielski / Twarda / 1993 / 592 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Surviving Hypoxia: Mechanisms of Control and Adaptation is a synthesis of findings and thoughts concerning hypoxia. The thermodynamics of hypoxia are discussed in detail, including acid-base balance and self-pollution resulting from the accumulation of anaerobic end-products. The book focuses on descriptions and discussions of common facets, contrasting solutions in a variety of physiological hypoxia defense strategies, including those shown by plants, invertebrates, and vertebrates. Special treatment is given to the distinctive problems that hypoxia presents to vulnerable organs such as the...

Living Without Oxygen
ISBN: 9780674498259 / Angielski / Twarda / 1980 / 192 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Innumerable clinical problems have as their basis some derangement in oxygen-dependent metabolism. To explore mechanisms of adjusting to oxygen limitation, Living without Oxygen presents a bestiary of exotic anaerobes that illuminate elements of metabolic biochemistry only dimly seen in studies using standard experimental animals. With their exaggerated anaerobic capabilities, Hochachka's diving mammals, airbreathing fishes, and hypoxia-adapted lower vertebrates allow a detailed assessment of what can and what cannot be adjusted in the process of extending hypoxia tolerance. The book...

Metabolic Arrest and the Control of Biological Time
ISBN: 9780674184572 / Angielski / Twarda / 1987 / 240 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Freshwater turtles and goldfish can survive for several days without oxygen, some diving turtles for several months; hibernating animals can exist without food for long periods; others can survive extreme conditions such as desiccation, freezing, and thawing. These creatures are, in effect, self-sustaining life-support systems, with a mysterious ability to regulate their own metabolisms.
These capabilities raise important questions, which Hochachka and Guppy explore in this seminal new book. What mechanisms turn down (or off) cell metabolism and other cell functions? How...
