The Microbiome and the Brain

The Microbiome and the Brain

Brain related disorders are among the most challenging health issues of our time. The development of effective therapeutic and preventive strategies for these disorders relies on a comprehensive understanding of the underlying causative mechanisms. And until recently these mechanisms have remained somewhat elusive. The newly discovered pivotal role of the intestinal microbiome in brain health functionality and resistance to disease is revolutionizing neuroscience. The Microbiome and the Brain through the contributions of some of the most forward thinking researchers and clinicians in the field comprehensively reveals the leading edge of our understanding of the fundamental role of gut microbes and their metabolites in a wide array of seemingly diverse brain issues including Alzheimer’s disease autism multiple sclerosis and mood disorders. In addition mechanisms defining these relationships are explored along with a presentation of the state-of-the-art as it relates to interpretation of relevant laboratory assessments. Finally novel therapeutic opportunities derived from this exciting science are presented. Readers will learn:The highly validated relationship between alterations of gut microbes and their metabolites and risk for Alzheimer’s disease. The important link between autism and intestinal dysbiosis. Appropriate interpretation of available laboratory assessments of the intestinal microbiome. The potential role of fecal microbial transplant in neurological diseases. The influence of diet and other lifestyle choices on the microbiome as it relates to brain health and functionality.

The Royal Flying Corps the Western Front and the Control of the Air 1914–1918

The Royal Flying Corps the Western Front and the Control of the Air 1914–1918

By the middle of 1918 the British Army had successfully mastered the concept of ’all arms’ warfare on the Western Front. This doctrine integrating infantry artillery armoured vehicles and - crucially - air power was to prove highly effective and formed the basis of major military operations for the next hundred years. Yet whilst much has been written on the utilisation of ground forces the air element still tends to be studied in isolation from the army as a whole. In order to move beyond the usual 'aircraft and aces' approach this book explores the conceptual origins of the control of the air and the role of the Royal Flying Corps (RFC) within the British army. In so doing it addresses four key themes. First it explores and defines the most fundamental air power concept - the control of the air - by examining its conceptual origins before and during the First World War. Second it moves beyond the popular history of air power during the First World War to reveal the complexity of the topic. Third it reintegrates the study of air power during the First World War specifically that of the RFC into the strategic operational organisational and intellectual contexts of the era as well as embedding the study within the respective scholarly literatures of these contexts. Fourth the book reinvigorates an entrenched historiography by challenging the usually critical interpretation of the RFC’s approach to the control of the air providing new perspectives on air power during the First World War. This includes an exploration of the creation of the RAF and its impact on the development of air power concepts. | The Royal Flying Corps the Western Front and the Control of the Air 1914–1918

The European Union and the Black Sea The State of Play

The European Union and the Black Sea The State of Play

The idea for this book is derived from the scantiness of academic references on the European Union’s policies towards the Black Sea relative to this region’s officially stated significance for the EU. Even though the EU plays a vital role in Black Sea political agendas the EU’s cooperation with the region is not extensively covered by academic discussions and literature. This is mostly due to the fact that the EU’s focus on foreign affairs is mainly associated with the Balkans as part the current and potential expansion and the Middle East as a direct consequence of the upheaval of the Arab Spring. The Black Sea region is crucially important for the EU because of the opportunities and challenges that the region presents both politically and socio-economically. Contributions to this book mostly focus on specific issues of EU–Black Sea cooperation from conflict to the environment to democracy and how these particular relationships are perceived within the region as well as through the lenses of stakeholders such as Russia Turkey and the USA. Overall the collection focuses on projecting a more efficient role and a holistic strategy for the EU in its approach towards the Black Sea region testifying to the need for a strong EU presence. For this reason the Black Sea area remains ‘the neighbourhood too close to yet still far from the European Union’. This book was originally published as a special issue of the Journal of Balkan and Near Eastern Studies. | The European Union and the Black Sea The State of Play

The Louvre and Versailles The Evolution of the Proto-typical Palace in the Age of Absolutism

The Louvre and Versailles The Evolution of the Proto-typical Palace in the Age of Absolutism

This book traces the evolution of the great palaces of the Louvre and Versailles from Pierre Lescot’s designs for expanding the former in the mid-16th century to the successive grands projets for the transformation of the latter over the course of the 18th century. Detailed architectural analysis is set in the context of the development of the medieval monarchy towards absolutism the significance of Hispano-Burgundian court etiquette as a formative influence on planning and the effect of the French monarchy’s financial incontinence on royal building ambitions. On the basis of exhaustive original research recalling contemporary testimony and re-examining the works themselves the book challenges recent scholarly accounts of the contributions of Claude Perrault and François Mansart to the Louvre and demonstrates the influence of schemes by Italian masters Pietro Cortona and Bernini on Ange-Jacques Gabriel’s designs for rebuilding Versailles. Finally the book looks at the influence of the great French palaces on those seeking to emulate their ambition from Stockholm in the late 17th century to the deliriously opulent late 19th-century palace of Ludwig II of Bavaria at Herrenchiemsee. The book includes a wealth of illustrative material and supporting documents which bring this comprehensive and authoritative text to life. | The Louvre and Versailles The Evolution of the Proto-typical Palace in the Age of Absolutism
