Arnold Geulincx Ethics
Arnold Geulincx (1624-1669) is a key figure in the history of ideas, whose concepts have been seen as precursors to those developed by Spinoza, Malebranche, Leibniz and Kant. His Ethics presents a treatment of virtue from the standpoint of occasionalist metaphysics. The great Irish writer Samuel Beckett stated that Geulincx, with his emphasis on the powerlessness and ignorance of the human cond…

State Of Play
This book is available as open access through the Bloomsbury Open Access programme and is available on www.bloomsburycollections.com. A State of Play explores how the British have imagined their politics, from the parliament worship of Anthony Trollope to the cynicism of The Thick of It. In an account that mixes historical with political analysis, Steven Fielding argues that fictional depiction…

The Role of Registration in Cancer Control and Prevention
Cancer is one of the major causes of morbidity and mortality in the world, with 18.1 million new cases and 9.6 million deaths, and an estimated prevalence during the last 5 years of 43.8 million persons with the disease, according to 2018 World Health Organization (WHO) report. Disparities between developed and developing countries have been docume…

Particle Filter Based Approach for Remaining Useful Life Prediction of High-S…
This work involves a novel data-driven procedure using vibration analysis for bearing health prognosis. In this work, we investigate the time-domain features and applying spectral kurtosis features in order to extract the damage indicators which eventually represent the degradation of the high-speed shaft bearing (HSSB). These damages were character…

Application of Jump Diffusion Models in Insurance Claim Estimation
We investigated if general insurance claims are normal or rare events through systematic, discontinuous or sporadic jumps of the Brownian motion approach and Poisson processes. Using firm quarterly data from March 2010 to December 2018, we hypothesized that claims with high positive (negative) slopes are more likely to have large positive (negative)…

Anti-Inflammatory Potential of Ginseng for Wound Healing
The recovery of skin wounds is a complex biological process involving three basic mechanisms: inflammatory phase, re-epithelialization followed by granulation and tissue remodeling. The interactions between inflammatory cells, fibroblasts, and keratinocytes induce microenvironmental changes at the wound site. Tissue remodeling is initiated by matrix…

The compound 2-[2-(4-methylphenylamino)-4-phenylthiazol-5-yl]benzofuran was prepared from 1-(4-methylphenyl)-3-(N-phenylbenzimidoyl)thiourea and 2-(2-bromoacetyl) benzofuran in the presence of triethylamine and characterized by FTIR, NMR, and mass spectra. Density functional theory (DFT) computations were adopted for the geometry optimization of thi…

Influence of Elements on Gene Expression in Human Teeth
Several elements (Ca, Fe, Sr, Mn, Mg, P, Zn, Se, B, Pb, Ni, Ti, etc.), classified mainly under three groups namely beneficial, harmless and harmful elements, are measured in human teeth for multiple purposes since they involve in metabolic activities as well as influence gene expression. There are sufficiently available studies reporting roles of th…

Determining Glucose Isomerase Activity in Different Wine Environments to Prev…
The objective of this study was to determine glucose isomerase activity in different prepared original or synthetic wine media to prevent sluggish or stuck fermentation, which may be caused by sugar uptake deficiency in yeast. The unfermented grape juice contains almost equal amounts of glucose and fructose. After fermentation, the residual sugar is…

Methods of Protein Detection in Cancer for Diagnosis, Prognosis and Therapy
Emerging proteomic technologies offer new insight in the study of malignant tumor to identify protein biomarkers for early detection, stratification, prediction and monitoring of treatment, as well as to detect target molecules for therapy. The tumor protein biomarker is responsible for the regulation of the cell cycle to promote cell proliferation …
