Latin-American Seeds - - Bog - Taylor & Francis Ltd - Plusbog.dk

In the last few years, the Latin-American seeds have gained increased importance (also due to the increased demand for gluten-free foods). Worldwide demand for Latin-American seeds and grains has risen in a high proportion. In parallel, seeds and grains'' research from this region in all relevant fields has been intensified. Latin-American Seeds: Agronomic, Processing and Health Aspects summarizes the recent research on Latin-American crops regarding agronomic and botanical characteristics, composition, structure, use, production, technology, and impact on human health. Latin-American cultivars studied here are included in the groups of cereals, pseudo-cereals, oilseeds, and legumes that are used in a great variety of innovative and traditional foods. The main crops that are covered in this book are Latin-American maize ( Zea mays ), amaranth ( Amaranthus spp), quinoa ( Chenopodium spp), kañiwa ( Chenopodium pallidicaule ), chia ( Salvia hispanica ), sacha inchi ( Plukenetia volubilis ) and legumes such as black turtle and common beans ( Phaseolus vulgaris ) and tarwi ( Lupinus mutabilis ). Key Features: - Contains updated information about recent research works on Latin-American crops - Includes a variety of Latin-American plant species that are used in a great variety of innovative and traditional foods - Addresses a wide range of topics related to agronomy, plant physiology, and nutritional and technological properties, processing, fractionation and development of new products for human health

Seeds of Illness, Seeds of Recovery - Antonino Ferro - Bog - Taylor & Francis Ltd - Plusbog.dk

Seeds of Illness, Seeds of Recovery - Antonino Ferro - Bog - Taylor & Francis Ltd - Plusbog.dk

Illustrated with richly detailed clinical vignettes, Seeds of Illness, Seeds of Recovery offers a fascinating investigation into the origins, modes and treatment of psychical suffering. Antonino Ferro provides a clear account of his conception of the way the mind works, his interpretation of the analytic understanding of psychopathology, his reconceptualization of the therapeutic process, and implications for analytic technique derived from his view of the therapeutic action of psychoanalysis. Drawing on and developing the ideas of Wilfred Bion, Ferro gives a unique perspective on subjects including: - Container Inadequacy and Violent Emotions - The waking dream and narrations - ''Evidence'': starting again from Bion - Self-analysis and gradients of functioning in the analyst. This highly original approach to the problem of therapeutic factors in psychoanalysis will be of interest to all practising and training psychoanalysts and psychotherapists.

Saving More Than Seeds - Catherine Phillips - Bog - Taylor & Francis Ltd - Plusbog.dk

Saving More Than Seeds - Catherine Phillips - Bog - Taylor & Francis Ltd - Plusbog.dk

Saving More Than Seeds advances understandings of seed-people relations, with particular focus on seed saving. The practice of reusing and exchanging seeds provides foundation for food production and allows humans and seed to adapt together in dynamic socionatural conditions. But the practice and its practitioners are easily taken for granted, even as they are threatened by neoliberalisation. Combining original ethnographic research with investigation of an evolving corporate seed order, this book reveals seed saving not only as it occurs in fields and gardens but also as it associates with genebanking, genetic engineering, intellectual property rights, and agrifood regulations. Drawing on diverse social sciences literatures, Phillips illustrates ongoing practices of thinking, feeling, and acting with seeds, raising questions about what seed-people relations should accomplish and how different ways of relating might be pursued to change collective futures.

Genetic Seeds of Warfare - Yuwa Wong - Bog - Taylor & Francis Ltd - Plusbog.dk

Genetic Seeds of Warfare - Yuwa Wong - Bog - Taylor & Francis Ltd - Plusbog.dk

For millennia humanity has simultaneously deplored and waged war. With each conflict the stakes have risen, and we now face global annihilation for the sake of a practice all the world claims to condemn. Is there some seemingly irresistible force that impels us toward our own destruction? To explain this central paradox of human behaviour, Genetic Seeds of Warfare , originally published in 1989, advances a startling new theory. It traces the origins of warfare back to early groups of Homo sapiens in competition for scarce resources, showing that warfare evolved as these groups evolved: kin-group against kin-group; tribe against tribe; nation against nation. Rather than being tied to a specific gene, warfare emerged as one of many behavioural strategies for maximising genetic survival. As social groups became more complex, motivations for warfare developed from simple protection of blood relations to political appeals to shared ethnicity, religion, and national identity. But the ultimate cause of warfare is rooted in the most basic of human drives: the need to ensure that one’s genes will survive and reproduce. The authors challenge many assumptions about human behaviour in general, and warfare in particular. They convincingly present the case for an evolutionary understanding of the propensity for warfare, supporting their argument with data from a vast array of social and natural science research. In doing so, they reveal why previous attempts at ending war have failed, and make proactive suggestions toward the development of a new agenda for world peace.
