Volkswagen, Volksempfänger, Volksgemeinschaft: Volksprodukte Im Dritten Reich: Vom Scheitern Einer Nationalsozialistischen Konsumgesellschaft
ISBN: 9783506717337 / Niemiecki / Twarda Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Volkswagen, Volksempfänger, Volkskühlschrank - das ehrenvolle Epitheton "Volks-" wurde im Nationalsozialismus nur auserwählten Produkten zuteil. Sie sollten den technischen Fortschritt im NS-Staat dokumentieren und dienten damit zugleich Propagandazwecken; sie waren Verheißungen einer besseren Welt, in die der Nationalsozialismus die Menschen zu führen versprach. Noch in der Nachkriegszeit dienten sie z. T. als gefährliche Chiffre für die "guten Seiten" des Nationalsozialismus.§Insgesamt waren diese "Volksprodukte" eine Verbindung von propagandistischem Fremd- und illusionistischem...

The Sacred Landscape of the Inca: The Cusco Ceque System
ISBN: 9780292729018 / Angielski / Miękka / 263 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The ceque system of Cusco, the ancient capital of the Inca empire, was perhaps the most complex indigenous ritual system in the pre-Columbian Americas. From a center known as the Coricancha (Golden Enclosure) or the Temple of the Sun, a system of 328 huacas (shrines) arranged along 42 ceques (lines) radiated out toward the mountains surrounding the city. This elaborate network, maintained by ayllus (kin groups) that made offerings to the shrines in their area, organized the city both temporally and spiritually. From 1990 to 1995, Brian Bauer directed a... The ceque system of Cusco, the ancient capital of the Inca empire, was perhaps the most complex indigenous ritual system in the pre-Columb... |

The Cerebral Perivascular Cells
ISBN: 9783540646389 / Angielski / Miękka / 90 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This book reveals the morphological correlate of antigen presentation in rodents. The method of immunoquenching of fluorescence described in this book is new and of considerable interest since it combines retrograde labeling and subsequent immunophenotypical characterization of cells.
A main benefit of the book is the careful approach combined with modern methods of research. The result showing that the antigen-presenting cells of the rodent central nervous system are not the microglial cells but the perivascular cells is also very promising for future investigations. This book reveals the morphological correlate of antigen presentation in rodents. The method of immunoquenching of fluorescence described in this book...

Slow Synaptic Responses and Modulation
ISBN: 9784431702498 / Angielski / Twarda / 455 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Information flow as nerve impulses in neuronal circuits is regulated at synapses. The synapse is therefore a key element for information processing in the brain. Much attention has been given to fast synaptic transmission, which predominantly regulates impulse-to-impulse transmission. Slow synaptic transmission and modu lation, however, sometimes have been neglected in considering and attempting to understand brain function. Slow synaptic potentials and modulation occur with a considerable delay in response to the accumulation of synaptic and modulatory inputs. In these contexts, they are...

Sexual Dimorphism of the Bed Nucleus of the Stria Terminalis and the Amygdala
ISBN: 9783540676836 / Angielski / Miękka / 78 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Sex differences are observed in various physiological, behavioral, and psychic functions, including reproductive behavior, aggres- sion, emotions, and cognition. Such differences are expressed even in early childhood with preferences to definite activities. It has been generally accepted that differences between genders are formed under the influence of biological as well as environmental factors. The existence of sex differences in functions of the central nervous system has suggested that there are also morphological sex differences. In recent years several reports on sexual dimorphism in...

Shocking History of Electric Fishes: From Ancient Epochs to the Birth of Modern Neurophysiology
ISBN: 9780195366723 / Angielski / Twarda / 496 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This book looks at how three kinds of strongly electric fishes literally became "electrical," and how they helped to change the sciences and medicine. These fishes are the flat torpedo rays common to the Mediterranean, the electric catfishes of Africa, and an "eel" from South America. The discovery of the electrical nature of these fishes in the second half of the 18th century was the starting point of the two fundamental advances in the sciences: on the physiological side, the demonstration that nerve conduction and muscle excitation are electrical phenomena, and on the physical side, the...

Crustacean preparations have been successfully used for more than 50 years to investigate the principles which enable nerve cells and neural circuitry to perform in a wide variety of functions. The proud record of information of general significance obtained from crayfish and lobster nervous systems testifies that the use of an experimental system precisely matching theoretical and experimental requirements ofa measurement is an essential part of the success. In some respects, the secondarily diversified vertebrate and mammalian nervous systems pose severe obstacles to experimentation and...

"Monkey see, monkey do" may sound simple, but how an individual perceives and processes the behavior of another is one of the most complex and fascinating questions related to the social life of humans and other primates. In The Primate Mind, experts from around the world take a bottom-up approach to primate social behavior by investigating how the primate mind connects with other minds and exploring the shared neurological basis for imitation, joint action, cooperative behavior, and empathy. In the past, there has been a tendency to ask all-or-nothing questions, such as...
