The Intelligent Body~How the Body Senses, Learns and Helps Us Make Decisions~Course-ResearchSeries: 'In Twelve Evenings' Book 14Vita HarwoodTest your knowledge!The body is always measuring, comparing and regulating. It maintains temperature, blood pressure and energy balance, detects changes within itself, learns from repeated experience and prepares action before a conscious decision appears.The Intelligent Body explains interoception, proprioception, emotion, fear, intuition, protective responses and biological clocks. It gives particular attention to recovery and to errors in regulation, when a useful system continues for too long or responds too strongly.The book contains twelve lessons, practical observations, 120 test questions with explained answers, a glossary and a source list.

  • Viral Replication Complexes
    Viruses are obligate intracellular parasites that need to co-opt a living cell’s machinery for replication. At the heart of the viral replication machinery are the nucleic acid polymerases, which are responsible for efficiently copying the viral genome. This process must often be coordinated with other viral processes, including protein translation and viral packaging. The poly...

Among these viruses are dengue virus—a scourge throughout the tropical regions of Asia and the Americas; yellow fever virus—the “original” hemorrhagic fever virus; and the recently emerged Zika virus. While the flaviviruse...

  • The Biology and Treatment of Myeloid Leukaemias
    There has been an observed decrease in the global mortality from cancer, mostly atributable to improved, particularly early, detection and prevention. For many carcinomas and leukaemias in adults, once the disease has reached a certain stage there are no therapies that are able to erradicate the cancer cells and cure patients. There has been progress in the treatment of acute m...
