Contributes to the ongoing debates about how the risk of cancer is related to the kinds of food people eat, the methods of preparation and cooking, and additives and pesticides. The apparently cancer-deterring Mediterranean diet is highlighted, and not only because it was Naples where the 17 papers

Contains papers from the November 1994 symposium, reflecting both classical and novel concepts. Topics include self-colliding beams as an alternative fusion system, target physics for inertial fusion energy, advanced confinement programs, the inertial electrostatic confinement approach, ignition phy

This volume is a compendium of knowledge relating to the biology, pathophysiology, pharmacology, and genetics of lipoxygenases and their products, edited as proceedings of an International Congress held in Malta in the summer of 1997.

This volume records the proceedings at the Fifth School of Thoracic Medicine held at the Ettore Majorana School of International Scientific Culture in March 1981. Foregathered there were a heterogeneous group comprising clinicians, pathologists, ultra-microscopists, biochemists, immunologists, cellular biologists and physiologists and they presented the twenty seven papers seen in the contents list. The discussion which followed each paper was faithfully recorded (and where necessary translated) and may be found after each author's presentation. This free discussion is perhaps the most...
