Handbook of Behavior, Food and Nutrition

Publisher: Springer Science & Business Media
Release Date: 2011-04-15
This book disseminates current information pertaining to the modulatory effects of foods and other food substances on behavior and neurological pathways and, importantly, vice versa. This ranges from the neuroendocrine control of eating to the effects of life-threatening disease on eating behavior. The importance of this contribution to the scientific literature lies in the fact that food and eating are an essential component of cultural heritage but the effects of perturbations in the food/cognitive axis can be profound. The complex interrelationship between neuropsychological processing, diet, and behavioral outcome is explored within the context of the most contemporary psychobiological research in the area. This comprehensive psychobiology- and pathology-themed text examines the broad spectrum of diet, behavioral, and neuropsychological interactions from normative function to occurrences of severe and enduring psychopathological processes.

While first accounts of food allergy date back to antiquity, only in recent years has food allergy become recognized as one of the major allergic diseases.

Featuring contributions by world-renowned experts, this book presents the current concept, practice and recent advances in the field of food allergy. A comprehensive background section provides a historical retrospective and information on the immunological basis and epidemiology of food allergies. Main topics discussed include clinical aspects, diagnosis and management, allergen-based food allergies, and disease-based food allergies. Furthermore, nutritional aspects and diets, public policy and educational programs are covered as well as recent hot topics such as molecular-based allergen diagnosis, eosinophilic gastrointestinal food allergies and oral immunotherapy. Allergists, pediatricians, internists, dermatologists and general practitioners will find this publication an essential source of information as it provides in-depth insights into food allergies from childhood to adulthood.
The War of Independence in East Cork
East Cork was a particularly violent area during the War of Independence with many IRA ambushes and attacks on Crown Forces. The first major success nationally for the IRA was the capture and destruction of Carrigtwohill RIC Barracks near Midleton. The IRA's worst tragedy was at Clonmult, also near Midleton, when the East Cork flying column was wiped out. During the war, twenty-two members of the IRA, ten RIC and Black & Tans, thirteen British soldiers, and nine civilians lost their lives violently in East Cork. This book presents a balanced history of the war between the IRA and Crown Forces in East Cork, covering all areas of the district. Featuring extensive lists of participants and a rich collection of photographs and maps, this book uses original primary sources, contemporary newspapers and documents to provide real, personal accounts of the action in East Cork.
