English | 2025 | ISBN: 0367721201 | 184 Pages | PDF EPUB (True) | 30 MB
Using the lens of nutrition security and equity for the living beings and living systems of the planet, Nutrition Security for Planetary Health takes an integrated, systems approach that not only delineates the antecedents of the multifaceted environmental crises―but offers solutions including the extensive co-benefits of whole plant foods nutrition as the foundational dietary pattern for improving planetary health. Overlooked yet inseparable problems that connect food systems to the transgression of our planetary boundaries, chronic disease, and zoonotic disease are discerned. Bolstering nature and biodiversity is emphasized throughout including regenerative agroecology, native plant foods and ecosystems, utilizing traditional and Indigenous wisdom, rewilding, and community science. Lastly, inspiring vignettes demonstrate the power of individual and collective actions that advance planetary health.

Nonlinear Elasticity A Concise Masterclass for Undergraduates


Free Download Nonlinear Elasticity: A Concise Masterclass for Undergraduates
English | 2025 | ISBN: 303191273X | 115 pages | PDF | 4.66 MB
This textbook provides a rigorous yet accessible introduction to Nonlinear Elasticity aimed at undergraduate students in a compact text. Rooted in concepts from first- and second-year undergraduate Linear Algebra and Calculus (and very little Tensor Algebra), the book touches upon all the fundamental aspects of nonlinear elasticity, from the analysis of deformation and stress, to the constitutive response and modelling of soft solids, to the lab experiments required to obtain their material properties, and to the concepts of equilibrium and energy minimization. Nonlinear Elasticity is an elegant, physics-based, mathematical theory, one usually only available at graduate level to students in advanced studies of engineering, applied mathematics, and theoretical physics. Over the past ten years, the authors developed a classroom-tested pedagogy aimed at narrowing the range of the skills required to approach Nonlinear Elasticity from the perspective of an undergraduate student pursuing a Bachelor of Science or Engineering, as displayed in this book. It concludes with an analysis of several worked examples, spanning a variety of problems of high technical importance and relevance. The book is organized for use as a core text in the classroom or as a self-contained guide of (24 lectures) for independent learning.

Neuroanatomy for the Neuroscientist (4th Edition)


Free Download Neuroanatomy for the Neuroscientist
English | 2025 | ISBN: 3031418158 | 798 Pages | PDF (True) | 61 MB
It is truer in neurology than in any other system of medicine that a firm knowledge of basic science material, that is, the anatomy, physiology, and pathology of the nervous system, enables one to readily arrive at the diagnosis of where the disease process is located and to apply their knowledge at solving problems in clinical situations. The purpose of this textbook is to enable a neuroscientist to discuss the structure and functions of the brain at a level appropriate for students at many levels of study including undergraduate, graduate, dental, or medical school level. The authors have a long experience in teaching neuroscience courses at the first- or second-year level to medical and dental students and to residents in which clinical information and clinical problem-solving are integral to the course. The authors reach this object by integrating basic sciences with neurological clinical cases containing MRI, CT or fMRI images.
