Описание: A collection that includes two core North Light watercolour guides showing readers the basics. It clarifies and simplifies various aspects of painting with watercolours while at the same challenging artists with different possibilities.
Описание: The study of botany has traditionally been ancillary to medical knowledge. Yet, several issues arise while an autonomous discipline of plants develop in the early modern time. This volume aims to discuss a few of these aspects of the relationship between the study of plants and medicine in the early modern time (from the late 15th century to the 18th century). Dealing with the methodologies of transmitting botanical knowledge, the practices with plants, and the attempts to reinforce or rebuke medical traditions, the contributions to this volume focus on the material study of plants in the period of the scientific revolution. The authors focus on the study of herbaria, on manuscripts and materia medica, on the reception of ancient texts, such as Dioscorides' or Pliny's natural history, on the trajectories of exotic plants and the attempts to accommodate them within Galenic system, on the experimentation with plants in anatomical medicine or in the development of new pharmacology. The volume, intented for scholars in early modern history of science, medicine, botany, and also intellectual and material history, will be an important addition in the scholarship.
Описание: At the heart of research with human beings is the moral notion that the experimental subject is altruistic, and is primarily concerned for the welfare of others. Beneath the surface, however, lies a very different ethical picture. Individuals participating in potentially life-saving research sometimes take on considerable risks to their own well-being. Efforts to safeguard human participants in clinical trials have intensified ever since the first version of the World Medical Association's Declaration of Helsinki (1964) and are now codified in many national and international laws and regulations. However, a comprehensive understanding of how this cornerstone document originated, changed, and functions today does not yet exist in the sphere of human research. Ethical Research brings together the work of leading experts from the fields of bioethics, health and medical law, the medical humanities, biomedicine, the medical sciences, philosophy, and history. Together, they focus on the centrality of the Declaration of Helsinki to the protection of human subjects involved in experimentation in an increasingly complex industry and in the government-funded global research environment. The volume's historical and contemporary perspectives on human research address a series of fundamental questions: Is our current human protection regime adequately equipped to deal with new ethical challenges resulting from advances in high-tech biomedical science? How important has the Declaration been in non-Western regions, for example in Eastern Europe, Africa, China, and South America? Why has the bureaucratization of regulation led to calls to pay greater attention to professional responsibility? Ethical Research offers insight into the way in which philosophy, politics, economics, law, science, culture, and society have shaped, and continue to shape, the ideas and practices of human research.

Описание: Few issues are more laden with emotion and controversy than the question of whether apes, and chimpanzees in particular, should continue to be used as subjects in biomedical research. This volume examines issues related to animal experimentation. Topics of discussion include whether medical progress depends on animal research, whether rats and mice are important for Cancer research, whether new technologies can replace testing all together, and whether the Animal Welfare Act protects animals from abuse in scientific research.
