Der Zellstoffwechsel und seine Regulation

"Anyone interested in the nature of living organisms and their adaptive evolution will be stimulated by reading this book."–– Mary Jane West-Eberhard (Foreword) 

"This authoritative compilation brings together top thinkers on phenotypic plasticity and synthesizes the many ways that it profoundly influences evolution. Plasticity has been too often dismissed as mere 'environmental　noise,' but these chapters bring rich and diverse perspectives to one volume and explain how plasticity arises and how understanding plasticity is fundamental to understanding evolutionary patterns and processes."–– Mohamed Noor, Duke University

"This book is ‘must-read’ for anyone　interested in phenotypic plasticity. The editor and authors have done an　excellent job as the treatment is bang up to date with a fully　comprehensive　coverage. In this era of major challenges from climate change, an understanding　of the evolution and ecology of phenotypic plasticity has become ever more　pressing and highly relevant to whether species will be able to cope with its　consequences. The most valuable and attractive features of the book include an　exceptionally　thorough assessment of controversial ideas involving the genetics　and evolution of plasticity and sections in each chapter entitled ‘suggestions　for future research’."––　Paul Brakefield FRS,　University of Cambridge, UK


"This is a much needed book. This volume makes clear that nothing in evolution makes sense except in the light of selectable variation, and that this variation arises through the alliances woven　between genomic and environmental agents during development. This should be mandatory reading for anyone concerned with mechanisms of evolution."

–– Scott F. Gilbert, Swarthmore College

"Bringing together leading theoretical and empirical scientists, this volume provides a comprehensive treatment of the mechanisms underlying phenotypic plasticity and how this knowledge illuminates our understanding of　evolution. Among other triumphs, it fulfills the promise of genomics as an engine of discovery for mechanistic biology, evolutionary biology, and their integration. A most worthy successor to West-Eberhard’s　Developmental Plasticity and Evolution."　–– Gene E. Robinson, Department of Entomology and Carl R. Woese Institute for Genomic Biology, University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign

"Writing Politics builds on Mike Shapiro’s formidable body of transdisciplinary scholarship to carefully de-reify and refigure the notion of violence for political thinking. Examining aesthetic explorations of historically situated forms of violent mentalities, this essential book broadens the methodological capacity of political analysis and sharpens our ability to critique violence in our contemporary circumstances."
Matt Davies, Newcastle University and Pontifícia Universidade Católica do Rio de Janeiro
"Michael J. Shapiro's novel method of bringing fiction to bear upon the question of the political is sure to explode the limits of traditional social-scientific discourses, modes of aesthetic inquiry, and the uncertain relation between them. With impressive interdisciplinary scope and the author's characteristic exactitude, Writing Politics incisively renders literature’s potential for resistance or radical subversion in the face of the worst instances of mass violence. This is a welcome and refreshing addition to the long-standing and ever-renewing problem of the politics of form."
Nathan Gorelick, Associate Professor, Utah Valley University
"Mike Shapiro exemplifies the master’s sensitivity needed to approach novels as sites for political experimentation, to interrogate political being, and to explore opportunities for the re-textualisation of history. Writing Politics sensitises us through the Barthes-inspired approach of writerly-reading, so thatas readers, we become the producers of text (thought). True to his erudite and pedagogical style, Shapiro prioritises the imagination of the reader as the vehicle for thought. Highly recommended as fundamental methodology for Political Scientists and students of power."
Luis Lobo-Guerrero, Professor of History and Theory of International Relations, University of Groningen
"Writing Politics, a timely meditation on authoritarian and fascist rhetoric conducted via an examination of the under-recognized genre of historiographic metafiction, is at the same time what has traditionally been called a defense of poetry – an argument that the devices of literary fiction often get to the heart of political matters in a way that social and psychological theory cannot. It is provocative, deeply thoughtful, and brilliantly executed."
John Rieder, University of Hawaii
"In Writing Politics Shapiro discusses the power of writing focusing on 'mentalities' and the production of intimate violence in the examples spanning from the Balkan war, the Holocaust, to assassinations. Combining literary works– concerned with how events are experienced– and political theory, Shapiro showcases the power of his method. Here philosophical ideas turn from dry concepts to rich reservoirs of emotions, complexities and layers of character enriching social and political analysis. Writing Politics is an outstanding book written in Shapiro's unique style."
Andreja Zevnik, Senior Lecturer in International Politics, University of Manchester

The Reminiscences of Rear Adm. Kenneth L. Veth, USN (Ret.)

"A top research psychologist provides a comprehensive analysis of why people misbehave. The discussion ranges from minor acts of incivility to major scandals in government and industry. The reader of this book will come away with an understanding of why people misbehave and what can be done to discourage it." –Paul Spector, University of South Florida, USA
"So why do people so often act badly--immorally, uncivilly, or just unrelentingly selfishly? Explanations often drift, inevitably, to the people themselves, citing their psychological drives, personality traits, character deficiencies, and the like ("bad apples").　 These analyses, however, provide only part of the picture, for they overlook the interpersonal processes that cause people to turn from the good to the bad ("bad barrels"). Kevin Murphy, in his book How Groups Encourage Misbehavior, thoroughly reviews these processes, in an analysis that is both sweeping in vision but comprehensive in scope. Drawing deeply on studies of the group and organizational processes, including social influence, socialization, identity, and contagion, Professor Murphy explains the many ways people falter--including wartime atrocities of military squads, corporate decision makers, and overly committed members of extremist groups. The book is a one-stop shop for all you need to know about the social side of misbehavior." —Donelson R. Forsyth, The University of Richmond, The Jepson School of Leadership Studies, USA

How Groups Encourage Misbehavior

"In this second edition of the book, Dr. Houston confirms his stature as master of making the complex understandable, of turning worries into easy and practical action items, and in providing a comprehensive guide for health that goes well beyond blood pressure control. This book is for doctors, nutritionists, naturopaths, pharmacists, and most importantly for all the regular people who understand that high blood pressure is the insidious agent most likely to sabotage our health. I cannot think of another book where all the components of blood pressure control are discussed so thoroughly and clearly."
- Sergio Fazio, MD, PhD, William and Sonja Connor Chair of Preventive Cardiology, Professor of Medicine, Director of Preventive Cardiology, Knight Cardiovascular Institute Oregon Health & Science University, Portland, OR

"Why wait for a heart attack? Follow Dr. Houston’s excellent advice and restore the health of your cardiovascular system now."
- Dr. Joe Pizzorno, Author, The Toxin Solution, Co-Author, Textbook of Natural Medicine

"Dr. Mark Houston is perhaps the best hypertensive physician expert in the world! He not only brings enormous clinical experience to the table in treating thousands of patients, but also teaches physicians, performs and publishes clinical studies, while writing books for the lay public at the same time. If I had high blood pressure, I would consult with him in a heartbeat! This book is a great place to start for anyone with a family history of hypertension or overt blood pressure issues. Highly recommended! "
- Dr. Steve Sinatra, Cardiologist.　 　　

"If you, or someone you know, is living with high blood pressure or heart disease, this is the book you must read. Evidence based and approachable, I’ll be recommending it to all my patients, as well as my colleagues."　
- Tieraona Low Dog, MD

" If I had to recommend only one required reading for every American this year, it would be "What You Need to Know About High Blood Pressure" by Dr. Mark Houston and Lee Bell. Cardiovascular Disease (CVD) remains the number one killer of men and women worldwide and high blood pressure is the #1 leading MODIFIABLE risk factor for CVD. Two out of every three Americans have an unsafe elevation in blood pressure, even those that are treated with prescription medications. We know that more drugs are not the answer. This book described how YOU, each individual person, can take control of your own health and make simple changes that will save your life.　 Dr. Houston is a unique physician and teacher that explains complex biology in a very simple easy to understand language. Most importantly, he teaches you how to implement simple, scientifically and clinically proven changes in your diet and lifestyle that can reverse hypertension and significantly decrease your risk of dying from cardiovascular disease."　　
- Nathan Bryan PhD

"Dr Houston offers an evidenced based approach to hypertension.Whether you are a patient or clinician this book contains a step by step approach not available in conventional medical practice. Learn to transform your health through the power of lifestyle medicine."
- Mimi Guarneri MD FACC, Pres. Academy Integrative Health and Medicine, Med. Director Guarneri Integrative Health

Hypertension is the most common and modifiable risk factor for cardiovascular disease. Rather than a disease, hypertension is a manifestation of an abnormal vascular system. Therein is both the problem and opportunity: we need a systems biology approach to address the root cause, and that's what Dr. Mark Houston uniquely provides. He is my go-to expert on hypertension, a world-class leader in precision and personalized medicine for cardiovascular health. This book can help you meet the latest criteria for normal blood pressure with　evidence-based diet, lifestyle, and nutraceutical recommendations—and limit your risk of scary downstream consequences, including stroke, heart attack, and dementia.
