The volumes of this classic series, now referred to simply as "Zechmeister" after its founder, L. Zechmeister, have appeared under the Springer Imprint ever since the series' inauguration in 1938. The volumes contain contributions on various topics related to the origin, distribution, chemistry, synthesis, biochemistry, function or use of various classes of naturally occurring substances ranging from small molecules to biopolymers. Each contribution is written by a recognized authority in his field and provides a comprehensive and up-to-date review of the topic in question. Addressed to biologists, technologists, and chemists alike, the series can be used by the expert as a source of information and literature citations and by the non-expert as a means of orientation in a rapidly developing discipline.

Cet ouvrage offre une présentation des approches contemporaines en matière de prise en charge et de traitement de la consommation de cannabis. Les auteurs, un ensemble d'experts internationaux, visent à apporter des réponses originales et précises à diverses questions cliniques et expérimentales tout en proposant des indications claires au niveau thérapeutique. Le lecteur y trouvera également des données inédites concernant l'utilisation d'un module de « self help » par internet, la mise en place d'un atelier « autoportrait » avec accompagnement pédagogique pour des adolescents dépendants au cannabis ainsi qu'un exemple de prise en charge interdisciplinaire et en réseau auprès d'adolescents. L'ouvrage couvre également les résultats de 15 ans de recherches multidisciplinaires au Québec, le suivi de la problématique du cannabis en Suisse de 2004 à 2008, l'historique et les études épidémiologiques réalisées au Maroc. Il comporte par ailleurs les données les plus récentes en ce qui concerne les aspects neurobiologiques du cannabis, l'influence des troubles cognitifs dans la prise en charge des consommateurs de cannabis et les comportements et motivations des jeunes Français en ce qui concerne le cannabis. L'ouvrage s'adresse aux professionnels de la santé mentale (psychologues, psychiatres et psychothérapeutes), aux médecins, ainsi qu'à tous les professionnels de la prise en charge des dépendances.

"Introduction to Chemicals from Biomass presents an overview of the use of bioresources in the 21st century for the manufacture of major chemical and material products. The book covers resources, chemical composition of biomass, key factors affecting composition, biorefinery concepts, utilization of wastes, extraction technologies, controlled pyrolysis, fermentation and platform molecules and green chemical technologies for their conversion to valuable chemicals." "Introduction to Chemicals from Biomass will prove useful to both academic and industrial scientists involved in process/industrial chemistry within the areas of biotechnology, chemical engineering, fine and bulk chemical production, agriculture, crop science and energy & power generation."--BOOK JACKET

Persistent organic pollutants (POPs) are organic compounds of natural or anthropogenic origin that resist photolytic, chemical and biological degradation. They are characterized by low water solubility and high lipid solubility, resulting in bioaccumulation in fatty tissues of living organisms. These properties of unusual high persistence and semi-volatility, coupled with other characteristics, have resulted in the presence of POPs all over the world, even in regions where they have never been used. With the evidence of long-range transport of these substances to regions, the international community has now, at several occasions called for urgent global actions to reduce and eliminate releases of these chemicals. Many countries have already banned or severely restricted the production and use of the twelve POPs in recent decades. Yet they remain a serious problem around the world. Because these chemicals have the ability to travel long distances from their original sources, relying on national-level action alone is ultimately a futile effort. This book employs a science-based approach to identify and take action against POPs, and additionally, provides access to technical information on POPs. The book will be an overview of the existing POP monitoring activities and programs.
