The Rise of the Ultra Runners
'Finn has written the definitive book on ultra running today. I couldn't put it down.' - Dean Karnazes 'Epic ... A triumphant, emotive and moving account of the transformative force of mind over matter.' - Irish Times *** Marathons are no longer enough. Pain is to be relished, not avoided. Hallucinations are normal. Ultra running defies conventional logic. Yet this most brutal and challenging sport is now one of the fastest-growing in the world. Why is this? Is it an antidote to modern life, or a symptom of a modern illness? Adharanand Finn travelled to the heart of the sport to find out - and to see if he could become an ultra runner himself. His journey took him from the deserts of Oman to the snow-capped peaks of the Rockies, and on to his ultimate goal, the 105-mile Ultra-Trail du Mont-Blanc. The Rise of the Ultra Runners is the electrifying, inspirational account of what he learned along the way. Through encounters with the sport's many colourful characters and his experiences of its soaring highs and crushing lows, Finn offers an unforgettable insight into what can be found at the boundaries of human endeavour.
Recent Developments in Microbiology, Biotechnology and Pharmaceutical Sciences
The Conference brought together innovative academics and industrial experts in the field of Medical, Biological and Pharmaceutical Sciences to a common forum. The primary goal of the conference was to promote research and developmental activities in Medical, Biological and Pharmaceutical Sciences. Another goal was to promote scientific information interchange between researchers, developers, engineers, students, and practitioners working in and around the world.
Textbook of Vascular Medicine
This textbook focuses on the vascular biology and physiology that underlie vascular disorders in clinical medicine. Vascular biomedicine is a rapidly growing field as new molecular mechanisms of vascular health and disease are unraveled. Many of the major cardiovascular diseases including coronary artery disease, heart failure, stroke and vascular dementia are diseases of the vasculature. In addition vascular injury underpins conditions like kidney failure and cardiovascular complications of diabetes. This field is truly multidisciplinary involving scientists in many domains such as molecular and vascular biology, cardiovascular physiology and pharmacology and immunology and inflammation. Cl...
Development of the Hypertensive Phenotype
Hardbound. The present volume of the Handbook of Hypertension draws together knowledge on the endogenous (genetic) and exogenous (environmental) components contributing to the pathogenesis of essential hypertension. In the field of hypertension research, the importance of adopting a genetic approach to its phenomenology was recognized at an early stage. There was early debate concerning the nature of the genetic architecture underlying population variability in blood-pressure but today its polygenic nature is generally accepted and is reflected in the design and orientation of human investigations as well as in the heterogeneity of mechanisms that have been unearthed by exploration with diverse animal genetic models. Concurrently, epidemiological studies have emphasized the contribution of a variety of environmental factors in the etiology of hypertension. In particular, the contribution of dietary factors, smoking and lifestyle to the develop

Der Aufstieg der Ultra-Läufer
"Born to Run" von Christopher McDougall (2009) und "Ultra Marathon Man" von Dean Karnazes (2005) sind Sportbücher, die die globale Laufszene nachhaltig geprägt und beeinflusst haben. Sie gehören zu den Klassikern der Lauf-Literatur. Doch nun schreiben wir 2019, und es ist Zeit für ein neues Standardwerk. Für dieses zeichnet der britische Starjournalist Adharanand Finn verantwortlich. In "Der Aufstieg der Ultra-Läufer" befasst er sich mit einer am schnellsten wachsenden Sportszene. In den vergangenen beiden Dekaden ist die Zahl der Finisher bei Ultra-Rennen um 400 (!) Prozent gestiegen. Mehr Teilnehmer weckt die Begehrlichkeit von Sponsoren und Ausrüstern. Siegläufer werden zu Superst...
Dietary Strategies for Managing Hypertension and Hypotension: Insights and Mechanisms
Research investigating nutritional strategies for improved disease management has increased due to the widespread prevalence of blood pressure (BP) abnormalities. With advancements in wearable technology, BP can now be monitored continuously and noninvasively, leading to the identification of various pathologies associated with BP fluctuations. Essential hypertension affects over 30% of the global adult population, highlighting the urgent need for effective management strategies. Recent studies have shed light on the acute changes in BP in response to orthostatic stress, yet the underlying mechanisms and the efficacy of dietary interventions remain underexplored. Despite the vast amount of d...
