Abstract

This thoroughly revised and updated edition of Michael Banton's classic book reviews historical theories of racial and ethnic relations and contemporary struggles to supersede them. It shows how eighteenth- and nineteenth-century concepts of race attempted to explain human difference in terms of race as a permanent type and how these were followed by social scientific conceptions of race as a form of status. In a new concluding chapter, 'Race as social construct', Michael Banton makes the case for a historically sensitive social scientific understanding of racial and ethnic groupings which operates within a more general theory of collective action and is, therefore, able to replace racial explanations as effectively as they have been replaced in biological science. This book is essential reading for anyone wanting to understand contemporary debates about racial and ethnic conflict.

Abstract

Principles of Molecular Medicine is the first major textbook to integrate the basic principles of internal medicine with the rapidly growing body of revolutionary findings from cell and molecular biology, including the human genome project. In its pages, J. Larry Jameson and his authoritative contributors, many of them world-renowned clinicians and researchers, expand the envelope of clinical understanding to encompass a wide array of specialties-including neurology, cardiology, hematology, nephrology, genetics, endocrinology, oncology, dermatology, and psychiatry-revealing the underlying molecular mechanisms of disease, as well as novel routes to the unprecedented treatments now emerging from these new molecular approaches. Practicing physicians will find informative updates in both their own specialties and in disciplines they may not have been able to follow closely. Within the framework of clinical internal medicine, they will gain critical knowledge of the many powerful molecular biology-based developments now so rapidly enhancing our understanding of the pathophysiology of disease, improving the feasibility and accuracy of diagnostic testing, and opening novel therapeutic avenues, including gene therapy. Readers will also gain a fuller understanding of the role played by genetic defects in a host of diseases, among them peripheral neuropathies, Alzheimer's disease, arrhythmias, leukemias and lymphomas, cystic fibrosis, hepatitis, HIV, autoimmune disorders, polycystic kidney disease, schizophrenia, affective disorders, alcoholism, Huntington's disease, and many more. Principles of Molecular Medicine offers a brilliant and original synthesis of today's rapidly advancing insights-fostered by genetics and molecular biology-into the nature and treatment of disease, codifying the major paradigm shift now underway in the teaching and practice of medicine. Certain to become a vital complement to traditional medical textbooks, Principles of Molecular Medicine provides practicing physicians, residents, medical students, and researchers alike with an authoritative and practical account of today's internal medicine, as well as insights into the nature and direction of future developments.
