Hardback. Condition: New. Sex Cells is a clear-eyed report on the still-pitched battle to get the scientific and medical world to recognize that women are not small men.   The idea that our biological sex impacts our health seems like such a simple concept. Unfortunately, it has proven to be anything but that. Phyllis Greenberger's battle cry has been: Women/females need to be treated equitably in relationship to men/males. They are equal, but they are not the same.   It has been challenging to get individual researchers and practitioners to accept this, as well as research and medical institutions, and manufacturers of medications and devices. The journey towards equal treatment and the understanding of sex and gender differences in prevention, diagnosis and treatment is still unfolding. This book is the story of that journey-why it was, and still is, so important to do research specific to women/females.  Sex Cells gives readers access to the wide world of sex-specific medical issues as they play out in research labs and doctor's offices, and how women pay the price, with a close look at the impact on minority populations.   The story is told by Phyllis Greenberger-the woman who is recognized as the driving force for change over the past 25 years-and her allies in government, NGOs, academia, medical research, the US government, and public health advocacy. The array of experts who have contributed to the book offer an insiders' up-close view of the battle to have female cells, lab animals and humans brought into medical research, so that women can receive treatment that is appropriate and effective for a wide range of conditions.  Told with humor, ferocity and passion, Sex Cells is a manifesto that will appeal to anyone interested in health, women's rights, and public health policy.…

Hardcover. Condition: New. The book has been written with a view to giving a glimpse of the rich treasure possessed by this great region in its ethnic diversity. Unlike a large majority of ethnobotanical researchers who confine themselves either to ethnomedicine or to one or more socio-economic aspects in their works, the present manual deals with almost all aspects of ethnobotany. Besides information on the land and the people and ethnobotanical uses of 127 plants, indices to uses, families and local names as well as a glossary of words used by tribal people of Lahoul and Spiti are also appended. The data presented are based on actual ethnobotanical surveys conducted by the authors for a period spread over more than three years (1993-96) to collect first hand account of ethnobotanically interesting species at flowering or fruiting stage. The description is supported by figures and photographs. As far as possible, technical terms have been avoided in plant descriptions to make reading interesting for the lay readers. This book will be very useful and will stimulate further interest and urge among budding ethnobotanists as well as in those engaged in work in different disciplines of plant sciences.…

Paperback. Condition: New. This book features five peer-reviewed reviews on alternative sources of protein for poultry.The first chapter reviews effects of supplemental full- or de-fatted microalgal biomass in diets for broiler chickens, laying hens, and other types of poultry on their production performance, meat and egg qualities, nutrient metabolism, and molecular responses.The second chapter provides an overview of the effects of dietary inclusion levels of different types of black soldier fly larvae protein meal on the performance and health of broilers and laying hens.The third chapter considers the use of yellow mealworm as an alternative and sustainable protein source in poultry diets. The chapter reviews the nutritional and environmental benefits of its use, processing and storage requirements, as well as its effect on poultry productivity.The fourth chapter highlights the poultry sector's over-reliance on a limited number of feed ingredients and explores the recent emergence of non-conventional protein sources, such as insect meal, earthworms, localised oilseeds and algae.The final chapter describes the application of corn fermented protein (CFP) in feed formulations for poultry. The chapter also discusses the use of distillers dried grains and solubles, as well as the challenges associated with the production of CFP.…
