Beyond the conventional Renin Angiotensin System
Evidence for the potential role of organ specific cardiovascular renin–angiotensin systems (RAS) has been demonstrated experimentally and clinically with respect to certain cardiovascular and renal diseases. These findings have been supported by studies involving pharmacological inhibition during ischemic heart disease, myocardial infarction, cardiac failure; hypertension associated with l…

Beyond Reward: Insights from Love and Addiction
Rewarding stimuli promoting the learning of goal-directed behaviors tend to produce positive emotions, and subsequently repetition of those learned behaviors. Some kinds of drugs and behaviors are highly rewarding, and thereby, control human behavior by generating a state called addiction. The core feature of this state is compulsive behavior despite negative consequences. Addiction on a ne…

Beyond Provenance (Volume 6.0)
Human intentionality in chemical patterns in Bronze Age metals For the last 180 years, scientists have been attempting to determine the ‘provenance’ (geological source) of the copper used in Bronze Age artefacts. However, despite advances in analytical technologies, the theoretical approach has remained virtually unchanged over this period, with the interpretative methodology only changing …

Beyond Provenance
For more than two million years, hominins have exploited some of the rich mineral resources of the earth’s crust. These have provided useful raw materials, such as particular stones for tools and weapons, pigments for painting and body art, brightly coloured minerals and semi-precious stones for body ornamentation, clays for figurines and ceramics, and, more recently, ores from which to e…
