The first book since to put together all the scientific information Compiles all the information received in the last year about Zika virus Clearly demonstrates the origin and discovery of the virus Zika Virus and Diseases: From Molecular Biology to Epidemiology will appeal to graduate students, medical students, basic researchers. The Biology of Desire says a lot about the brain mechanisms underpinning addiction but, to its credit, does not stop there. With minor exceptions, we do not help addicts (and they do not help themselves) by ministering directly to their brains. As Mr. Lewis stresses throughout this unorthodox but enlightening book, people learn to be addicts Reviews:
Neuroscientist Marc Lewis takes a different approach to addiction in The Biology of Desire something he wrote about in his earlier book Memoirs of an Addicted Brain. The disease . CSHL Press publishes monographs, technical manuals, handbooks, review volumes, conference proceedings, scholarly journals and videotapes. These examine important topics in molecular biology, genetics, development, virology, neurobiology, immunology and cancer biology. Manuscripts for books and for journal publication are invited from scientists world wide.
The psychiatric establishment and rehab industry in the Western world have branded addiction a brain disease. But in The Biology of Desire, cognitive neuroscientist and former addict Marc Lewis makes a convincing case that addiction is not a disease, and shows why the disease model has become an obstacle to : PublicAffairs. The second edition of The Biology of Disease is an introductory level text on the biological principles of human disease. The book is aimed at medical students in degree courses in biomedical science. The book fuses the biological (physiological and biochemical) processes which underlie the clinical manifestations of disease.

Book Description Biology of Disease describes the biology of many of the human disorders and disease that are encountered in a clinical setting. Biology of Disease describes the biology of many of the human disorders and disease that are encountered in a clinical setting.
Biology of Disease addresses the pathophysiology of specific disease states and evaluates the multidisciplinary approach to disease diagnosis and management. Starting with an introduction to the basic concepts of health and disease, the book graduates to an in-depth discussion of disease states, while illustrating how theory is linked to practice.
The book provides a detailed conceptual framework for the study of disease emergence, arthropod physiology, genetics of vector competence, and the molecular biology of gene expression.

Written in an engaging manner, this book will be useful for students needing a broad overview of the biological basis of disease. It is also an ideal reference for biomedical scientists and medical s: The Biology of Desire: Why Addiction Is Not a Disease Description Through the vivid, true stories of five people who journeyed into and out of addiction, a renowned neuroscientist explains why the "disease model" of addiction is wrong and illuminates the path to recovery.

The biology of desire is a powerfully scientific book that tackles the mainstream notion of addiction being a disease in a very interesting sense. The author presents a solid case of how addiction works, using captivating narratives of addicts, eloquently illustrating their suffering while shedding a spotlight on the underlying reasons using /5.
