¿Puede haber algo más personal que una moderna bisutería hecha por uno mismo? Nosotras creernos que no, pues para elaborar una pieza propia de bisutería existen un montón de técnicas y numerosos materiales para combinar.
En este libro les mostramos nuevos modelos de los
populares collares de varias vueltas en diferentes variantes: unos gruesos y llamativos con varios hilos, y otros sencillos y alegres con pocas hileras de cadeneta. Se incluyen también accesorios de bisutería con anillos, broches y pendientes. Los broches, actualmente tan de moda, son muy fáciles de realizar con cuentas y abalorios.
¡Le deseamos que se divierta y que tenga éxito elaborando sus piezas de bisutería!

> Completely rewritten, Cytokines: Stress and Immunity, Second Edition offers 16 entirely new chapters, which document developments across a number of fields, including immunology, pharmacology, and psychiatry. Delving into the cytokine relation to stress and depression, this seminal work details all clinically relevant cytokines, including interleukins, interferons, enkephalins, and endorphins. It explores cytokine-hormone interactions and the clinical implications of those interactions on the immune, endocrine, and central nervous systems, clearly documenting how cytokine activity is implicated in fueling the vicious circle of depression and illness in a variety of mental and physical diseases.

Written by leading experts in the physics, development, and implementation of brachytherapy, The Physics of Modern Brachytherapy for Oncology discusses the basic physics behind modern brachytherapy and addresses all practical issues, such as production, calibration, and dosimetry of sources. Beginning with fundamental atomic and nuclear physics, the book discusses the radionuclides used in brachytherapy, reflecting upon past (radium), present (iodine, palladium, iridium, or cobalt), and future (ytterbium or thulium) methods. It proceeds to examine source calibration and dosimetry protocols for dose rate calculation while the final chapters explore more recent processes, including Monte Carlo-aided, experimental, and gel dosimetry.

Presenting a global perspective of climate change effects on agricultural production, this volume considers the consequences of changes in the atmosphere and climate for the integrity, stability, and productivity of agroecosystems. It melds together theoretical contributions from ecologists and the applied perspective of agriculturalists. This book provides a theoretical underpinning to guide agricultural scientists on what phenomena to look for, and to move beyond first-order responses in the creation of sustainable agroecosystems. It also discusses issues such as how population biology of different trophic levels might be altered due to climate-change impacts.
