Sommario/riassunto |
|
This book traces the shifting meanings of security and geopolitics in Central European states that acceded into the EU or NATO in 2004. The author examines assumptions that shaped these debates and influenced policy-making, combining fresh theoretical approaches from international relations and political geography with rich empirical material from Central Europe. This book provides the first in-depth analysis of security discourse in the region. |

Sommario/riassunto |
|
This title provides an extremely helpful analysis of genes that may be associated with autoimmunity, and answers questions such as how these genes can be identified, and how the functions of the gene products can be elucidated.Incorporating data on disease-associated chromosomal loci that has been accumulated from inbred mice, the title:* describes how some susceptibility loci may be common to many diseases, whereas others are relatively disease specific* discusses the importance of developing criteria for establishing the significance of these different categories of disease-as |
