Paul Ehrlich gilt als einer der bedeutendsten Lebenswissenschaftler des 19. und 20. Jahrhunderts. Seine Forschungen berührten Aspekte der Histologie und Farbenchemie, Hämatologie, Pharmakologie, Immunologie und Krebsforschung. 1908 erhielt er für seine immunologischen Arbeiten den Nobelpreis für Medizin. Mit der Chemotherapie entwarf er basierend auf seiner Seitenkettentheorie ein eigenes Forschungsfeld an der Schnittstelle zwischen Medizin, Chemie und Biologie. Sein Ruhm als "Wohltäter de...

Writing The Blue Hippopotamus was great funsort of reliving my early life and making some incidents even better than they were the first time. What I wanted most of all was to write a page-turner, to give the reader a chance to actually live and feel what I had lived and felt. In a sense, my own life was a page-turner, from day to day, and a wonderful one that I enjoyed and lovedeven the difficult and painful happenings. I think that Ive been tremendously lucky to have had such aalmost a c...

Five former Air Force combat pilots are meeting every week to discus what they can do about the downward trend of America in the last twenty or thirty years. They feel that this is no longer the country that they loved and fought for. The American Dream," says one, has turned into a nightmare for millions of Americans who are now forced to live on the street in poverty, their homes and family possessions gone and no jobs to be had. Only the very rich are doing very well while paying tiny a...

Robert Ornstein and Paul Ehrlich explain that we are causing our own problems because we have created a world where our basic mental functions are no longer suitable. We evolved over a period of millions of years to survive in small tribal families on the wild grassy plains of East Africa. Now the way we live has nothing to do with that time and place, but the mental tools that were developed to survive on the savanna have remained unchanged. These instincts were wonderfully adapted to the...

Paul Ehrlich war einer der bedeutendsten Lebenswissenschaftler seiner Zeit. Er hat unser heutiges Verständnis zum Ablauf immunologischer Prozesse maßgeblich geprägt. Ebenso geht die Idee der modernen Arzneimittelforschung, systematisch nach Substanzen zu suchen, ihre Wirkung auf Krankheitserreger und Zellen zu prüfen und ggf. die Zusammensetzung der Substanzen zu modifizieren, auf Paul Ehrlich zurück.Der vorliegende Band präsentiert eine Auswahl von Ehrlichs Publikationen, die das ...

One of the major strains on our environment is population growth, and the need for more and more people to be provided for. Listen as Paul Ehrlich, author of the 1968 classic, The Population Bomb, talks about what has gotten better, what is worse, and what to do now.

The pathology of the blood, especially of the corpuscular elements, though one of the most interesting, is certainly one of the most confusing, of all departments of pathology, and to those who have not given almost undivided attention to this subject it is extremely difficult to obtain a comprehensive and accurate view of the blood in disease. Professor Ehrlich by his careful and extended observations on the blood has qualified himself to give a bird's-eye view of the subject, such as few...

In no department of Pathology has advance been so fitful and interrupted as in that dealing with blood changes in various forms of disease, though none now offers a field that promises such an abundant return for an equal expenditure of time and labour. Observations of great importance were early made by Wharton Jones, Waller, and Hughes Bennett in this country, and by Virchow and Max Schultze in Germany. Not, however, until the decade ending in 1890 was it realised what a large amount of ...

The desire to understand people’s influence on ecosystems has inspired scientific studies and analyses of the stress individuals and communities place on the environment, human well-being, and the tradeoffs between them. As an emerging discipline, Structural Human Ecology is devoted to unlocking the dynamic links between population, environment, social organization, and technology. The new field offers cutting-edge research in risk analysis that can be used to evaluate environmental polici...

Bridging the gap between modern differential geometry and the mathematical physics of general relativity, this text, in its second edition, includes new and expanded material on topics such as the instability of both geodesic completeness and geodesic incompleteness for general space-times, geodesic connectibility, the generic condition, the sectional curvature function in a neighbourhood of degenerate two-plane, and proof of the Lorentzian Splitting Theorem.;Five or more copies may be ord...
