Systems Medicine: Physiological Circuits and the Dynamics of Disease (Chapman & Hall/CRC Computational Biology Series)
Why do we get certain diseases, whereas other diseases do not exist?
In this book, Alon, one of the founders of systems biology, builds a foundation for systems medicine.
Starting from basic laws, the book derives why physiological circuits are built the way they are. The circuits have fragilities that explain specific diseases and offer new strategies to treat them.
By the end, the reader will be able to use simple and powerful mathematical models to describe physiological circuits. The book explores, in three parts, hormone circuits, immune circuits, and aging and age-related disease. It culminates in a periodic table of diseases.
Alon writes in a style accessible to a broad range of readers – undergraduates, graduates, or researchers from computational or biological backgrounds. The level of math is friendly and the math can even be bypassed altogether. For instructors and readers who want to go deeper, the book includes dozens of exercises that have been rigorously tested in the classroom

Wildlife Disease Ecology: Linking Theory to Data and Application (Ecological Reviews)
Just like humans, animals and plants suffer from infectious diseases, which can critically threaten biodiversity. This book describes key studies that have driven our understanding of the ecology and evolution of wildlife diseases. Each chapter introduces the host and disease, and explains how that system has aided our general understanding of the evolution and spread of wildlife diseases, through the development and testing of important epidemiological and evolutionary theories. Questions addressed include: How do hosts and parasites co-evolve? What determines how fast a disease spreads through a population? How do co-infecting parasites interact? Why do hosts vary in parasite burden? Which factors determine parasite virulence and host resistance? How do parasites influence the spread of invasive species? How do we control infectious diseases in wildlife? This book will provide a valuable introduction to students new to the topic, and novel insights to researchers, professionals and policymakers working in the field.Read more

The End of Heart Disease: The Eat to Live Plan to Prevent and Reverse Heart Disease (Eat for Life)
The New York Times bestselling author of Eat to Live, Super Immunity, The End of Diabetes, and The End of Dieting presents a scientifically proven, practical program to prevent and reverse heart disease, the leading cause of death in America–coinciding with the author’s new medical study revealing headline-making findings.
Dr. Joel Fuhrman, one of the country’s leading experts on preventative medicine, offers his science-backed nutritional plan that addresses the leading cause of death in America: heart disease. An expert in the science of food, Dr. Fuhrman speaks directly to readers who want to take control of their health and avoid taking medication or undergoing complicated, expensive surgery, the two standard treatments prescribed today.
Following the model of his previous programs that have successfully tackled conditions from diabetes to dieting, Dr. Fuhrman’s plan begins with the food we eat. He focuses on a high nutrient per calorie ratio, with a range of options for different needs and conditions. He shows us what to remove and what to add to our diets for optimum heart health, provides menu plans and recipes for heart-healthy meals and snacks, and includes helpful questions for doctors and patients.
By understanding heart disease and its triggers, Dr. Fuhrman gives us the knowledge to counter-attack this widespread epidemic and lead longer, healthier lives.

Human Infectious Disease and Public Health
Infectious disease will affect most of us at some point in our lives, despite tremendous advances in medicine over the past century. We all still fall ill from pathogens in our everyday environments – but many of us now survive infections which would have proved fatal in the past. Our understanding of the nature of infectious diseases continues to grow – as does our understanding of the human immune system. We continue to develop drugs and public health regimens to attempt to treat or prevent more and more diseases from causing acute sickness and/or long-term health problems – and indeed, we have been successful at eradicating (or almost eradicating) a number of previously common illnesses over the past fifty years.This text explores the structure and function of each distinct type of pathogen (bacteria, viruses, fungi, parasites and prion disease), as well as the biochemical processes taking place when an infection is caused by any of these agents. It goes on to look at the role the human immune system plays in preventing, containing and destroying pathogens which enter the human body, using up to date research to ensure that students are abreast of the most recent developments in immunology. The text also examines the “evolutionary arms race” between human beings and infectious disease, looking at genetic traits which confer protection against some infectious diseases, and how pathogens are constantly changing to work around our defences.
The final section of the primer explores disease prevention and treatment – antibiotics, antivirals and antifungal agents and their mechanisms of action; public health and vaccination; the dangers of antibiotic resistance; and potential sources for new antimicrobial agents around the world.

Evolution in Health and Disease
In this fully revised and updated edition, the editors have integrated a completely new set of contributions from the leading researchers in the field to describe the latest research in evolutionary medicine, providing a fresh summary of this rapidly expanding field 10 years after its predecessor was first compiled. It continues to adopt a broad approach to the subject, drawing on medically relevant research from evolutionary genetics, human behavioral ecology, evolutionary microbiology (especially experimental evolution of virulence and resistance), the evolution of aging and degenerative disease, and other aspects of biology or medicine where evolutionary approaches make important contributions. Evolution in Health and Disease describes how evolutionary thinking gives valuable insights and fresh perspectives into human health and disease, establishing evolutionary biology as an essential complementary science for medicine.

Death, Disease & Dissection: The Life of a Surgeon-Apothecary 1750–1850
“A deep dive into the education and lives of a medical professional’s life over the span of 100 years . . . A good addition to any medical historian’s library” (The Lazy Historian).
Imagine performing surgery on a patient without anesthetic or administering medicine that could kill or cure. Welcome to the world of the surgeon-apothecary.
During the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, significant changes occurred in medicine. New treatments were developed and medical training improved. Yet, with doctors’ fees out of the reach of ordinary people, most relied on the advice of their local apothecary, among them, the poet John Keats, who worked at Guy’s Hospital in London. These men were the general practitioners of their time, making up pills and potions for everything from toothache to childbirth.
Death, Disease & Dissection examines the vital role these men played within their communities, their training, the treatments they offered, the quacks, and the shocking sights and sounds in hospitals and operating theaters of the time. Suzie Grogan transports readers through 100 years of medical history, exploring the impact of illness and death and bringing the experiences of the surgeon-apothecary vividly to life.
“I think the author has done a wonderful job of researching the topic and presenting the history of the profession, and biographical information on some of the most influential Surgeon-Apothecaries of the period. . . . This book is well organized and full of fascinating information on the topic.” —A Line from a BookRead more

Exploring The Efficacy Of Vitamin B1 Therapy In Parkinson’s Disease Management (Duncan’s Health Guide)
“Exploring the Efficacy of Vitamin B1 Therapy in Parkinson’s Disease Management”In the world of neurodegenerative disorders, Parkinson’s disease (PD) stands as a formidable challenge, affecting millions of lives worldwide. “Exploring the Efficacy of Vitamin B1 Therapy in Parkinson’s Disease Management” delves into the cutting-edge research and promising insights surrounding a novel approach to PD management—Vitamin B1 therapy.
Parkinson’s disease presents a complex interplay of factors, from the gradual loss of dopaminergic neurons to the intricate mechanisms that underlie its motor and non-motor symptoms. Amidst this complexity emerges Vitamin B1, also known as thiamine, as a potential game-changer. This comprehensive exploration takes readers on a journey through the theoretical foundations of Vitamin B1 therapy, weaving together its multifaceted roles in cellular function and neuroprotection.
Starting with a deep dive into the intricate web of neurobiology, the book examines how Vitamin B1’s antioxidant properties combat oxidative stress—an underlying culprit in PD. It reveals thiamine’s significant contribution to energy metabolism, illuminating how this essential nutrient fuels the neurons’ intricate machinery. Beyond the surface, the book uncovers thiamine’s impact on neurotransmission, offering insight into how it may modulate dopamine levels, the very neurotransmitter at the heart of PD.
Throughout the pages, the book reveals the compelling findings of in vitro studies, animal models, and clinical trials. It explores the potential of Vitamin B1 therapy to shield neurons from damage, enhance mitochondrial health, and alleviate levodopa-induced dyskinesias. With meticulous attention to detail, the book also investigates thiamine’s impact on cognitive function, mood regulation, and non-motor symptoms—a realm that deeply affects the quality of life for PD patients.
The journey of “Exploring the Efficacy of Vitamin B1 Therapy in Parkinson’s Disease Management” extends beyond laboratory settings. It delves into the potential mechanisms of action that underpin thiamine’s effects. It dives into the challenges of dosage, administration, and the variability of patient responses. Through meticulous analysis, the book lays the groundwork for larger-scale clinical trials, paving the way for evidence-based therapeutic interventions.
Written by experts at the forefront of PD research, this book is a beacon for medical professionals, researchers, and those directly impacted by Parkinson’s disease. It bridges the gap between scientific discoveries and real-world applications, offering a glimpse into a potential paradigm shift in Parkinson’s disease management. As the medical community continues to explore innovative avenues, “Exploring the Efficacy of Vitamin B1 Therapy in Parkinson’s Disease Management” stands as an essential guide, promising a future where Vitamin B1 may hold the key to unlocking new horizons in the fight against Parkinson’s disease.

Disease (Giants: A New Beveridge Report)
In 1942 life expectancy at birth was 66 for women and 60 for men. Death was usually due to degenerative and infectious diseases. The greatest postwar success in the fight against disease was the establishment of the NHS and care that was free at the point of delivery. Life expectancy rose dramatically, but since 2011 incremental improvements have stalled and even, in some regions, begun to reverse. Infant mortality rates have crept up and the postcode lottery of health provision underscores the level of social inequality in the UK.
Good health is not simply the absence of disease. It is the collective of physical, social and mental well-being. It is the product of nutrition and genetics, of healthy lifestyles and preventative health interventions. It is the interaction between the conditions in which we live, work, play and age. Yet access to many of the things that make and keep us healthy are not evenly distributed in the population. Achieving good health is then deeply entwined with all aspects of society and cannot simply be solved by policies in one area alone.
In our rediscovery of Beveridge, the shadow of the pandemic looms large. It is has never been more urgent to address the underlying causes of Disease. And it has never been clearer that these determinants are not only social or physiological, but also political.

Living With Parkinson’s Disease: A Complete Guide to Patients and Caregivers
An optimistic guide from an expert author and the world authority on Parkinson’s disease. The number of people diagnosed and living with Parkinson’s is increasing, according to the latest research from Parkinson’s UK. They estimate that every year around 145,000 people in the UK are newly diagnosed with the condition ― that’s around 1 in 350 British adults. And Parkinson’s diagnoses are set to rise by nearly a fifth by 2025. The increase is due to a growing and ageing population. The Parkinson’s UK analysis suggests that 1 in every 37 people will be diagnosed with Parkinson’s in our lifetime. Internationally renowned as both a neurologist and a leading researcher, Dr. Okun has been referred to as “the voice” of these patients and a world authority on Parkinson’s disease. His positive and optimistic approach has helped countless people manage their symptoms and achieve happiness despite them. This approach, detailed in this new book, Living with Parkinson’s Disease, is a critical resource for Parkinson’s disease patients and their families. Presented in a friendly and easy-to-understand way, this book addresses PD related issues and symptoms along with emerging therapies. In each chapter, Dr. Okun offers patients the necessary tools to manage their disease and to ultimately find joy and fulfilment in their lives.Read more

Parkinson’s Disease: An In-depth Metabolic Guide
Over the last ten years there has been a quantum leap in our understanding of the mechanisms which drive Parkinson’s disease. Frustratingly, this new research has not yet managed to infiltrate mainstream medical and public perceptions of the illness, where Parkinson’s disease is still seen purely as a dopamine deficiency condition. It is hoped that this book will give the reader an accessible insight into these exciting new discoveries.
What is becoming clear is that Parkinson’s disease is a complex multi-factorial disease where many ill-functioning aspects of health intersect leading to a failure of dopamine producing neurons. To seek a single cause amongst such complexity is likely to be futile but, hopefully, the themes in this book may help the reader to see the emergent patterns associated with Parkinson’s disease.
Ray Griffiths MSc is a Registered Nutritionist, Lecturer and Author and hails from the South of England. Ray’s lectures and books have focused on the role that mitochondria play in Parkinson’s disease, depression, ageing and inflammation. He has a background in engineering and likes to employ his engineering style thinking to help better understand complex health issues such as Parkinson’s disease.Read more

What Really Makes You Ill?: Why Everything You Thought You Knew About Disease Is Wrong
This book will explain what really makes you ill and why everything you thought you knew about disease is wrong. “Doctors are men who prescribe medicines of which they know little, to cure diseases of which they know less, in human beings of whom they know nothing.” Voltaire. The conventional approach adopted by most healthcare systems entails the use of ‘medicine’ to treat human disease. The idea encapsulated by the above quote attributed to Voltaire, the nom de plume of François-Marie Arouet (1694-1778), will no doubt be regarded by most people as inapplicable to 21st century healthcare, especially the system known as modern medicine. The reason that people would consider this idea to no longer be relevant is likely to be based on the assumption that ‘medical science’ has made significant advances since the 18th century and that 21st century doctors therefore possess a thorough, if not quite complete, knowledge of medicines, diseases and the human body. Unfortunately, however, this would be a mistaken assumption; as this book will demonstrate.Read more
