Donald Richie - A Hundred Years of Japanese Film: A Concise History, with a Selective Guide to DVDs and Videos




Widely considered the leading Western authority on Japan, Richie has a particular affinity for the nation'sfilms, as is evident on every page of this authoritative survey. He emphasizes the collaborative nature of film,which is particularly appropriate since in Japanese culture the collective usually trumps the individual, andshows how Japanese cinema largely eschewed realism and narrative until it fell under Western influence. Thesection on the silent era, when live narrators, benshi, described films' stories to audiences, is particularlyrevelatory, since 90 percent of pre-1945 Japanese films haven't survived. Richie comments insightfully on theacknowledged masters-- Mizoguchi, Ozu, and Kurosawa--and also on other notable directors who are virtuallyunknown to even the most avid American cineasts. He finds less to praise about contemporary filmmakers, whoseflashier, Westernized approach seems less to his liking. The impressive amount of information on films renownedand obscure and Richie's enthusiasm and critical acumen make this essential for film studies collections. Briefreviews of about 200 films, with notations on video availability, top things off nicely.

Hormesis: A Revolution in Biology, Toxicology and Medicine



Hormesis is defined as any circumstance in which exposure of a cell or organism to a low dose of asubstance or condition results in an adaptive stimulatory/beneficial outcome, while exposure to a highdose results in an inhibitory / detrimental outcome. When plotted on a graph the shape of the doseresponse curve is biphasic, the hallmark of hormesis. This groundbreaking book "Hormesis: A Revolutionin Biology, Toxicology and Medicine" describes why and how hormesis is a fundamental feature of allliving systems and is based on the evolutionary principle of selection for genetic traits that conferthe ability to respond adaptively to adverse environmental conditions. Using numerous specific examplesthe authors explain why knowledge of hormesis is important for our health, our environment, and thefuture of our planet. Several chapters of the book describe emerging research findings that elucidatethe molecular and cellular underpinnings of the biphasic dose response/hormesis. The implications ofthe tapping of cellular systems that underlie hormesis for the discovery and optimization of new drugsand dietary formulations are described.

Meinolf Geck, Gotz Pfeiffer - Characters of Finite Coxeter Groups and Iwahori-Hecke Algebras



Finite Coxeter groups and related structures arise naturally in several branches of mathematics such asthe theory of Lie algebras and algebraic groups. The corresponding Iwahori-Hecke algebras are thenobtained by a certain deformation process which have applications in the representation theory ofgroups of Lie type and the theory of knots and links. This book develops the theory of conjugacyclasses and irreducible character, both for finite Coxeter groups and the associated Iwahori-Heckealgebras. Topics covered range from classical results to more recent developments and are clear andconcise. This is the first book to develop these subjects both from a theoretical and an algorithmicpoint of view in a systematic way, covering all types of finite Coxeter groups.
