    • Nabeel Ahmad + 1 more
    • English
    Emerging Nanotechnologies for Medical Applications focuses on both commercial and premarket tools and their applications in medicine. The book develops the concept of integrating different technologies along a hierarchical structure of biological systems and clarifies biomechanical interactions on different levels for the analysis of multiscale pathophysiological phenomena. With a focus on nano-scale processes and biomedical applications, it demonstrates how knowledge can be utilized in a range of areas, including the diagnosis and treatment of various human diseases, and in alternative energy production. This book is an important reference source for scientists and researchers involved in micro- and nano-engineering, bio-nanotechnology, biomedical engineering, nanomedicine, and industries involved with optical devices, computer simulation and pharmaceuticals.
  • Behaviour in our Bones

    How Human Behaviour Influences Skeletal Morphology
    • 1st Edition
    • Cara S. Hirst + 3 more
    • English
    Exploring behaviour through bones has always been a fascinating topic to those that study human remains. Human bodies record and store vast amounts of information about the way we move, where we live, and our experiences of health and socioeconomic circumstances. We see it every day, and experience it, but when it comes to past populations, understanding behaviour is largely mediated by our ability to read it in bones. Behaviour in Our Bones: How Human Behaviour Influences Skeletal Morphology examines how human physical and cultural actions and interactions can be read through careful analyses of skeletal human remains. This book synthesises the latest research on reconstructing behaviour in the past. Each chapter is dedicated to a specific region of the human body, guiding the reader from head to toe and highlighting how evidence found on the skull, shoulder, thorax, spine, pelvis, and the upper and lower limbs has been used to infer patterns of activity and other behaviour. Chapter authors expertly summarise and critically discuss a range of methodological, theoretical, and interpretive approaches used to read skeletal remains and interpret a wide variety of behaviours, including tool use, locomotion, reproduction, health, pathology, and beyond.
