Sommario/riassunto

Archaeology, Artifacts and Antiquities of the Ancient Near East follows the evolution of the author’s scholarly work and interests and is divided into several categories of interrelated fields. The first part deals primarily with excavations and associated artifacts, issues in ancient geography and the identification of ancient sites in northwest Iran, the author’s research involving the culture and chronology of the Phrygian capital at Gordion in Anatolia, and the chronology and Iranian cultural relations of a site in the Emirate of Sharjah. Part two is wide-ranging and includes chapters on Aegean and ancient Near Eastern cultural and political interconnections, the role of fibulae in revealing cultural and chronological matters, and the gender-determined usage of parasols and their recognition in excavated contexts. There are also articles specifically concerned with “Plunder Culture” and the forgery of both objects and their alleged proveniences. \'At 1,088 pages, this volume provides a wonderful sample– chosen by Muscarella himself – of forty papers spanning the author’s career and many interests...This volume is so rich that it contains something for everyone.\' D.T.

Sommario/riassunto

This book sheds new light on the molecular diagnosis of deafness, emphasizing the impact of gene identification and its clinical application. Through this comprehensive volume, readers will gain insights into the genetic underpinnings of hearing loss and the latest advancements in genetic testing and counseling. The chapters cover topics such as the genetic epidemiology of deafness genes, non-syndromic and syndromic hearing loss, and the role of genetic testing in cochlear implantation. The author delves into specific genes like GJB2, SLC26A4, and MYO7A, providing a detailed analysis of their clinical implications. This book also explores future directions in genetic screening, making it an indispensable resource for understanding the complexities of genetic hearing loss. Molecular Diagnosis of Deafness is essential for ENT clinicians, geneticists, and genetic counselors seeking to enhance their knowledge of deafness genes and their clinical applications. It offers a practical guide to navigating the challenges of genetic heterogeneity in hearing loss and provides valuable insights for improving patient care through advanced genetic testing and counseling.
