Tapa dura. Zustand: New. Hay horrores que siguen vivos en bosques sombríos, páramos azotados por el viento, pantanos inmóviles, playas excavadas por el gélido aliento del norte o pequeños pueblos que parecen resistirse al paso del tiempo. Esta antología recupera los nombres clave del folk horror, desde pioneros del género como Arthur Machen, Algernon Blackwood, M.R. James o Sheridan Le Fanu hasta plumas fundamentales de las últimas décadas como Walter de la Mare, Joan Aiken o Ramsey Campbell. En las páginas de Terrores ancestrales encontrarás ritos paganos que perviven en nuestros días, brujas inmortales, maldiciones que pueden transformarte en criatura marina o portales a otros mundos que se abren durante la noche de Todos los Santos. Cuídate mucho cuando vayas al campo, porque hay secretos que siguen grabados a sangre y piedra, tradiciones que se resisten a morir y palabras mecidas por el viento que parecen decir: «Nosotros prevalecemos».Terrores ancestrales es la perfecta guía para adentrarse en el género folk horror . Habla de todos aquellos miedos que nos persiguen desde los albores de los tiempos: extrañas criaturas que se niegan a abandonar sus moradas, dioses cuyos corazones siguen latiendo en la tierra o moradores de las profundidades que exigen un sacrificio. …

Still less is the church called popularly by his name the monument of Irving.His contributions to theology, full of splendour of imagination, affluent discursive thought, grand moral ideas,and exquisite devotional feeling,as they are,will probably have but a slight permanent hold on the literature of theological science.What remains of him,and will remain, is the memory of the noble testimony he bore to the eternal righteousness and veracity; to the reality of the unseen kingdom,of which our Lord is King; to the divinely human character of Jesus Christ,and the living union betweenthe Master who suffered and overcame,andthe members of His body,the Church; the memory of that unwearying ministry, full of all apostolic labour, care, and love, which stirred the sluggish hearts of the churches,&fired them with emulous zeal;of that antique,romantic personality ,so idiosyncratic,so loveable,so unworldly, with its tender smile,its tones of thunder, `its large heart with its large bounty,where wretchedness found solacement,&they that were wandering in darkness the light ofa home.'"(280) Fair tan cloth sides, lacks most of leather backstrip.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - Neuroendocrine Perspectives, Volume 7, is part of an international book series designed to keep clinicians and researchers appraised of important trends and new data in basic and clinical neuroendocrinology. It focuses on four very rapidly evolving major topics: - the role of dopaminergic regulation of the intermediate pituitary lobe in elucidating intracellular signal transaction pathways and other regulatory mechanisms involved in transsynaptic regulation of peptide biosynthesis, post-translational processing, and hormone secretion; - the physiological and clinical implications of corticotropin releasing factor for such areas as diagnosing Cushing's syndrome, defining the hypothalamic and pituitary origins of secondary adrenal insufficiency, and distinguishing Cushing's syndrome from psychiatric states associated with hypercortisolism; - the large number of neurotrophic factors that affect CNS neurons and of neurite promoting factors that modulate neuronal performance, with emphasis on their mechanisms of action and their possible therapeutic applications to peripheral neuropathies and central diseases; - and the many factors that regulate changes in female reproductive cycles during middle age, with careful distinction between neuroendocrine and ovarian components and special attention to the possible cause-and-effect relationship within the cascade of events resulting in acyclicity and infertility.…

Hardcover. Zustand: Very Good. Wicked witches, bad fairies, and the restless dead be damned, for those who are looking to fill up their folk horror fiction shelves, Damnable Talesis a must-have' Andy Paciorek, Horrified Magazine 'I had to keep pulling myself away from it so I didn't finish it in one sitting . An incredible book'Annie Kapur,Vocal Media This richly illustrated anthology gathers together classic short stories from masters of supernatural fiction including M. James, Sheridan Le Fanu and Arthur Machen, alongside lesser-known voices in the field including Eleanor Scott and Margery Lawrence, and popular writers less bound to the horror genre, such as Thomas Hardy and E.These are damnable tales, selected and beautifully illustrated by Richard Wells. They stalk the moors at night, the deep forests, cornered fields and dusky churchyards, the narrow lanes and old ways of these ancient places, drawing upon the haunted landscapes of folk-horror - a now widely used term first applied to a series of British films from the late 1960s and 1970s: Witchfinder General (1968), Blood on Satan's Claw (1971), and The Wicker Man (1973). Unholy rites, witches' curses, sinister village traditions and ancient horrors that lurk within the landscape all combine to remind us that the shiny modern, urban world might not have all the answers Copyright © Unbound.…

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - This issue of Neuroendocrine Perspectives, Volume 9, begins with a fascinating aspect of neurobiology: the steroid control of vertebrate behavior, in this case aggressive behavior. In the first chapter, Schlinger and Callard, after an extensive historical perspective of the behavioral effects of steroid hormones, review results of their own and others' laboratories on the hormonal basis of individual and sex-related differences in the intensity ofaggressive displays in birds. These studies provide evidence that brain aromatase exerts considerable control over both sex-dependent and individual differences in aggressive behavior by controllingestrogenreceptoroccupancyinsteroid-sensitivebrainregions. A greatdeal ofattention has been devoted to psychological, socio economic and cultural factors as potential causes of drug abuse and dependence, whereas the information on the neurobiologic effects of drugs of abuse is rather scanty. Wand and Froehlich address this topic in an exhaustive chapter on the effects of ethanol on the release, synthesis and posttranslational processing of hypothalamo-hypophyseal hormones. In addition, in keeping with neurophysiological and epidemiological evidence of a genetic susceptibility to alcohol addiction, they present data to indicate how the neuroendocrine system may function as a marker for genetic susceptibility to ethanol addition.…

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - The flow of information in neuroendocrinology and related disciplines is vigorous, favored by the availability of sensitive and specific biochemical and histochemical techniques that advance our knowledge of CNS neurotransmitter and neuropeptide systems. Volume 8 of Neuroendocrine Perspectives illuminates new findings inthis areawhich add complexity to the traditional view ofthe hypothalamo pituitary control, and to established concepts ofthe modulation ofbrain function by target hormones. In the first chapter, Ben-Jonathan exhaustively reviews evidence derived from her own work that demonstrates the importance of the posterior lobe as a regulator of prolactin secretion via two opposing influences, i. e. , dopamine released by the tuberohypophyseal dopaminergic system into the short portal vessels and a prolactin-releasing factor which is produced locally, though the identity of its innervating neurons is still unclear. Despite the wealth of information on prolactin and its cell of origin, little is known about the manner in which the hormone exerts its effects on target cells. Frawley and coworkers thoroughlyexamine the direct actions ofprolactin on a broad spectrum ofmammalian tissues, dealing extensivelywith prolactin receptors and the putative second messengers. They also review new evidence, based on their original findings, for an indirect action ofprolactin exerted through the livervia synlactin and liver lactogenic factor, two extracellular modulators ofthe biological functions ofthe hormone. The relationships among the CNS, neuroendocrine and immune systems are bidirectional and constitute an integrated loop.…
