Sommario/riassunto |

From New Woman Writer to Socialist: The Life and Selected Writings of Tamura Toshiko From 1936 to 1938 by Anne Sokolsky offers a detailed biography of Tamura Toshiko’s life and translations of selected writings from the latter part of Tamura’s career. Considered one of Japan’s early modern feminists and hailed as a New Woman writer, Tamura is best known for her bold depictions of female sexuality and her condemnation of Japan’s patriarchal marriage system. Less well-known are the works Tamura produced when she returned to Japan in 1936 after spending two decades in North America. Through these selected translations, Sokolsky presents Tamura’s more politicized writing voice and shows how the objective of Tamura’s writing expanded beyond the sphere of women’s issues in Japan to more global concerns. |

Sommario/riassunto |
|
This book explores recent advances in heavy metal contamination research in a global context, and focusses on the role of recent technologies like recombinant bioremediation, phytoremediation, DNA technology and nanotechnology to provide sustainable managing strategies to mitigate adverse environmental and health impacts. Many heavy metals are used in industrial and commercial sectors, including iron, zinc, tin, lead, copper, tungsten, cadmium, arsenic, chromium, thallium, and lead, which, when disposed in the natural environment, lead to serious threats to ecological balance in biotic systems and threaten vulnerable human populations. Currently, global scientific communities are very worried about the detrimental health effects of these heavy metals and their adverse effects on almost all biological systems. Scientific research has recorded some alarming adverse impacts of heavy metals on biota like carcinogenesis, mutagenesis, teratogenesis, allergic interactions, endocrine-disruption, bone marrow damage, osteoporosis. and immune system damage. This book is therefore timely, and will be of interest to researchers, students professors, and policymakers examining toxic heavy metals in the environment and their adverse health impacts. |
