CAR T: A New Cure for Cancer, Autoimmune and Inherited Disease
For most of modern medicine, cancer drugs have been developed the same way: by designing molecules to treat diseased cells. Chimeric Antigen Receptor T cell therapy, commonly referred to as CAR T therapy, is a revolutionary cell-based immunotherapy treatment that breaks this mold.
A patient’s cells are transformed through genetic engineering and reinfused into the bloodstream, allowing the cells to identify and eliminate their targets better than they naturally can. For many patients, this translates to a long-term remission or cure.
As an early pioneer in cell therapies using dendritic macrophages to treat prostate cancer, Dr. William Haseltine now sees the immense potential for CAR T. In his latest book, he describes how CAR T cell therapy works, the potential and possibilities of integrating mRNA technology, current uses to treat cancer and ongoing efforts that adapt this system to treat other illnesses, including heart disease, HIV/AIDS and rheumatoid arthritis.

Dialogues on Ethical Vegetarianism (Philosophical Dialogues on Contemporary Problems)
After lives filled with deep suffering, 74 billion animals are slaughtered worldwide every year on factory farms. Is it wrong to buy the products of this industry?
In this book, two college students – a meat-eater and an ethical vegetarian – discuss this question in a series of dialogues conducted over four days. The issues they cover include: how intelligence affects the badness of pain, whether consumers are responsible for the practices of an industry, how individual choices affect an industry, whether farm animals are better off living on factory farms than not existing at all, whether meat-eating is natural, whether morality protects those who cannot understand morality, whether morality protects those who are not members of society, whether humans alone possess souls, whether different creatures have different degrees of consciousness, why extreme animal welfare positions “sound crazy,” and the role of empathy in moral judgment.
The two students go on to discuss the vegan life, why people who accept the arguments in favor of veganism often fail to change their behavior, and how vegans should interact with non-vegans.
A foreword, by Peter Singer, introduces and provides context for the dialogues, and a final annotated bibliography offers a list of sources related to the discussion. It offers abstracts of the most important books and articles related to the ethics of vegetarianism and veganism.
Key Features:
- Thoroughly reviews the common arguments on both sides of the debate.
- Dialogue format provides the most engaging way of introducing the issues.
- Written in clear, conversational prose for a popular audience.
- Offers new insights into the psychology of our dietary choices and our responsibility for influencing others.

Minjian: The Rise of China’s Grassroots Intellectuals (Global Chinese Culture)
Who are the new Chinese intellectuals? In the wake of the crackdown on the 1989 democracy movement and the rapid marketization of the 1990s, a novel type of grassroots intellectual emerged. Instead of harking back to the traditional role of the literati or pronouncing on democracy and modernity like 1980s public intellectuals, they derive legitimacy from their work with the vulnerable and the marginalized, often proclaiming their independence with a heavy dose of anti-elitist rhetoric. They are proudly minjian—unofficial, unaffiliated, and among the people.
In this book, Sebastian Veg explores the rise of minjian intellectuals and how they have profoundly transformed China’s public culture. An intellectual history of contemporary China, Minjian documents how, amid deep structural shifts, grassroots thinker-activists began to work outside academia or policy institutions in an embryonic public sphere. Veg explores the work of amateur historians who question official accounts, independent documentarians who let ordinary people speak for themselves, and grassroots lawyers and NGO workers who spread practical knowledge. Their interventions are specific rather than universal, with a focus on concrete problems among disenfranchised populations such as victims of Maoism, migrant workers and others without residence permits, and petitioners. Drawing on careful analysis of public texts by grassroots intellectuals and the networks and publics among which they circulate, Minjian is a groundbreaking transdisciplinary exploration of crucial trends developing under the surface of contemporary Chinese society.

THE NEWEST DEPUTY DISTRICT ATTORNEY IS ASSIGNED TO THE CASE.
Nobody could have been more surprised than Audrey when Pope assigns her to handle the case. Uncertain about Pope’s motivation and assuming he hopes to influence how the case proceeds, Audrey jumps in with both feet to the most high-profile case of her career.
It isn’t long before Audrey realizes this case comes with more obstacles than she initially realized. The list of potential suspects is pages long. She must deal with office politics, something she hates. Her boss Gregory Pope–good intentions notwithstanding–is doing more harm than good.
CAN SHE BRING THE KILLER TO JUSTICE?
Armed with only her wits, experience, and determination to find justice, Audrey will see this through to the end, whatever the cost.
Just when she thinks she has the case figured out, the murderer strikes again, throwing cold water on her theory.
Can she catch the killer before he murders a third time?
Pick up your copy today to find out!
Sneak Peek
Based on what little she saw poking out from underneath the plastic sheet, Audrey deduced Rachel had been jogging through the park when she was attacked.
A knife was five feet away in the dirt with the point down. The handle made her think of a medieval dagger. It was possible the perp had dropped it, but more likely, he’d stabbed it into the ground before fleeing.
Why?
Audrey’s eyes narrowed as she looked from the body to the knife’s position.
Accidental or intentional? She forced herself to remain open to both possibilities, even though she naturally gravitated toward one.
Did the perp want the knife to be found? Was he concerned it might be missed? She refrained from glancing at Gregory Pope. Or was it a message to the venerable District Attorney?
That was probably going too far, but she made a mental note of it still the same.
She took in a deep breath as she tried to soak it all in. It was now just after 2:45 PM. It was fifty-five, maybe sixty degrees. Jacket weather for some, but not coat. It had been half an hour since Walzer had found Audrey in the prison parking lot. She pegged the time of death between 12:30 PM and 1:45 PM.
But it’s the middle of the day, Audrey thought, looking around. It’s busy here. It was more likely from 1:00 PM to 1:45 PM. She doubted Rachel could have been here longer than forty-five minutes without being discovered.
There was blood on the trail, a smear on the ground to where Rachel lay. The river hawthorn tree itself looked unharmed.
Did the perp drag her body over there? If so, why? The tree was ten feet high and thick, but it didn’t hide the body, not even close.
Rachel was on her back with her hands at her side. She probably would have been on her belly if she’d moved herself.

The International Legal Order’s Colour Line: Racism, Racial Discrimination, and the Making of International Law
Prior to the twentieth century, international law was predominantly written by and for the ‘civilised nations’ of the white Global North. It justified doctrines of racial inequality and effectively drew a colour line that excluded citizens of the Global South and persons of African descent from participating in international law-making while subjecting them to colonialism and the slave trade.The International Legal Order’s Colour Line narrates this divide and charts the development of regulation on racism and racial discrimination at the international level, principally within the United Nations. Most notably, it outlines how these themes gained traction once the Global South gained more participation in international law-making after the First World War. It challenges the narrative that human rights are a creation of the Global North by focussing on the decisive contributions that countries of the Global South and people of colour made to anchor anti-racism in international law.
After assessing early historical developments, chapters are devoted to The League of Nations, the adoption and implementation of the International Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Racial Discrimination, the debates within UNESCO on the notion of race itself, expansion of crimes against humanity to cover peacetime violations, as well as challenges to apartheid in South Africa. At all stages, the focus lies on the role played by those who have been the victims of racial discrimination, primarily the countries of the Global South, in advancing the debate and promoting the development of new legal rules and institutions for their implementation. The International Legal Order’s Colour Line provides a comprehensive history and compelling new approach to the history of human rights law.

Legal Thought and Eastern Orthodox Christianity: The Addresses of Ecumenical Patriarch Bartholomew I (Law and Religion)
Ecumenical Patriarch Bartholomew I, the spiritual leader of Eastern Orthodox Christians worldwide, has thought profoundly about the role of law as it applies to the church, to civic life in Europe, to human rights, to religious freedom, and to the environment. In this book, leading scholars across the world reflect critically on the significance of his legal thought for human flourishing, for Christian social teaching, and for Christian unity. His legal thought is summed up in five key public addresses that he has delivered around the world in recent years, on: church law as an ecumenical instrument; the role of religion in a changing Europe; Orthodoxy and human rights; religion and freedom; and climate change, ecumenical imperatives. The collection presents critical reflections on the legal thought in these five important, distinct, and topical fields of human life. Its ten chapters, with two chapters devoted to each of his five addresses, are written by leading scholars across the world from different Christian traditions with expertise in the fields studied. They provide an analysis of the legal thought of the Patriarch, explain its significance legally, theologically, and politically, and propose its unifying value for the whole of global Christianity today. The book will be essential reading for academics and researchers working in the areas of law and religion, legal philosophy, comparative canon law, theology, and ecumenical studies.

Detective Chief Superintendent Tommy Fox is pursuing five villains and their loot from a van heist. They find the loot . . . and a body in a shallow grave.

A policeman is shot in a bank robbery. Fox is convinced it’s the work of money launderer, Danny Horsfall. But Horsfall is careful to cover his tracks. Fox and his team must crack through a trail of drug pushers, crooked art dealers and prostitutes to bring the laundry man to justice.BOOK 3: TOMFOOLERY
A cache of priceless jewellery is stolen from an upmarket London hotel. All Fox’s leads are dead ends until his team find a link with a missing person enquiry. A man with multiple identities and relationships is the likely villain. The Flying Squad must hunt through a maze of dodgy characters to get to the truth.BOOK 4: SNOWDROP
Two mutilated corpses are discovered in a car on the motorway hard shoulder. White powder is found in the boot. Fox knows a drug smuggling ring when he sees one. A large and organised one at that — but this time, something clearly went very wrong . . .BOOK 5: THE TAMING OF TANGO HARRIS
A prostitute is murdered in a fashionable London hotel. Hours later a lorry is hijacked, and then the body of a criminal is found in a car boot nearby. Fox believes the crimes bear the hallmarks of gang leader Tango Harris, but Harris is always one step ahead him. He must find the link to solve the crimes.BOOK 6: UNDERNEATH THE ARCHES
Thieves find a strangled woman on the floor of their lock-up. The Flying Squad’s simple robbery case is now a murder investigation. Fox’s unorthodox way of working is put under internal scrutiny as he seeks the link between robbery and murder. Can he overcome false leads to uncover the murderer?BOOK 7: ROUGH DIAMONDS
A diamond thief is shot dead in a taxi. Days later, another diamond thief is murdered. Fox’s investigations reveal a link with an unsolved murder five years ago. But his attempts to trap the killer by using his new girlfriend as bait go disastrously wrong.BOOK 8: BLUE MURDER
Tommy Fox is promoted to commander of the International and Organised Crime branch at London’s CID. A scandalous case lands on his desk within seconds — a British businessman and two female companions have been shot dead in Cyprus. It looks like a drug deal gone wrong, but the male victim had a sideline in pornography. Fox must wade through the murky world of vice to get answers.MEET THE DETECTIVE

Principles of International Energy Transition Law
Energy transition is a complex global problem, with governance and policies cutting across multiple legal silos including human rights, environment, international economics, finance, energy, law of the sea, and transnational commerce. As of yet, there is no comprehensive treatment of the legal principles governing energy transition as a whole. Furthermore, energy transition must solve a trilemma that pits energy equity (the need to provide access to energy needed to
fuel human development) and energy security (the need to provide resilient and reliable energy systems) against environmental sustainability. Without a comprehensive understanding of these issues, law and policy-makers risk exacerbating rather than resolving the underlying problems.Principles of International Energy Transition Law introduces the energy transition problem by situating the climate emergency in its broader energy and development context, showing how global energy value chains are deeply enmeshed in and drive global economic and human development. It combines the different legal perspectives in one consistent analysis by outlining their interactions and showing how they can be reconciled. The book discusses thirty-two international legal principles
governing different aspects of the energy transition trilemma’s three parts. It then uses a commons governance perspective to propose a holistic approach to applying and balancing these different parts and their different legal principles.Highlighted sections summarise the most important concepts and ideas for easy reference, making the title particularly accessible for students and policy-makers as well as law practitioners.

Maritime Safety in Europe: A Comparative Approach (Maritime and Transport Law Library)
The book is concerned with the harmonisation of maritime safety legal systems in Europe. It describes maritime safety legal systems in selected European countries as well as maritime safety issues from the perspective of the International Maritime Organisation, European Union, and European Free Trade Association. Distinguished scholars from Europe’s leading maritime law academic centres present national perspectives of maritime safety systems, questioning whether the adopted national solutions guarantee the compatibility with IMO and EU legal regime, as well as assessing the global and EU system. Moreover, the book seeks to provide some answers as to whether the IMO goals on maritime safety are adequate in light of current safety challenges and how to achieve higher level of enforcement of internationally-recognised maritime safety standards. It will be of great assistance to those readers who need to familiarize themselves with current problems inherent in maritime safety, whether that be lawyers, scholars, professional mariners, or national institutions.

Lectures on Optimal Transport (UNITEXT Book 130)
This textbook is addressed to PhD or senior undergraduate students in mathematics, with interests in analysis, calculus of variations, probability and optimal transport. It originated from the teaching experience of the first author in the Scuola Normale Superiore, where a course on optimal transport and its applications has been given many times during the last 20 years. The topics and the tools were chosen at a sufficiently general and advanced level so that the student or scholar interested in a more specific theme would gain from the book the necessary background to explore it. After a large and detailed introduction to classical theory, more specific attention is devoted to applications to geometric and functional inequalities and to partial differential equations.

Scattering Theory for Transport Phenomena (Mathematical Physics Studies)
The scattering theory for transport phenomena was initiated by P. Lax and R. Phillips in 1967. Since then, great progress has been made in the field and the work has been ongoing for more than half a century. This book shows part of that progress.
The book is divided into 7 chapters, the first of which deals with preliminaries of the theory of semigroups and C*-algebra, different types of semigroups, Schatten–von Neuman classes of operators, and facts about ultraweak operator topology, with examples using wavelet theory.
Chapter 2 goes into abstract scattering theory in a general Banach space. The wave and scattering operators and their basic properties are defined. Some abstract methods such as smooth perturbation and the limiting absorption principle are also presented. Chapter 3 is devoted to the transport or linearized Boltzmann equation, and in Chapter 4 the Lax and Phillips formalism is introduced in scattering theory for the transport equation.
In their seminal book, Lax and Phillips introduced the incoming and outgoing subspaces, which verify their representation theorem for a dissipative hyperbolic system initially and also matches for the transport problem. By means of these subspaces, the Lax and Phillips semigroup is defined and it is proved that this semigroup is eventually compact, hence hyperbolic.
Balanced equations give rise to two transport equations, one of which can satisfy an advection equation and one of which will be nonautonomous. For generating, the Howland semigroup and Howland’s formalism must be used, as shown in Chapter 5.
Chapter 6 is the highlight of the book, in which it is explained how the scattering operator for the transport problem by using the albedo operator can lead to recovery of the functionality of computerized tomography in medical science. The final chapter introduces the Wigner function, which connects the Schrödinger equation to statistical physics and the Husimi distribution function. Here, the relationship between the Wigner function and the quantum dynamical semigroup (QDS) can be seen.Read more
