Riassunto

The idea that glial cells only provide a "scaffolding" for the nervous system has been superceded by research which proves that these cells play crucial roles in transmission and regulation. This is the definitive work covering all aspects of the role of the glial cells in the nervous system. Aspects of the glial covered include their involvement in the pathophysiology of neurological diseases, mechanisms of cell-to-cell communication, glia as part of the immune system,neuron-glia interactions, and the role of glia in injury and regeneration.

Product Description

In 1939 the Jewish population of Romania exceeded 750,000: the third largest concentration of Jews in Europe. By 1944, some 400,000 had disappeared. Another 150,000 Ukrainian Jews died at the hands of Romanian soldiers. In the quest for a "final solution" Romania proved to be Hitler's most enthusiastic ally. In "The Silent Holocaust", Butnaru, himself a survivor of the Romanian labor camps, provides a full account and demonstrates that anti-Semitism was a central force in Romania's history. He begins by examining the precarious status of Romanian Jewry in the years prior to World War I. He then reviews the period to the establishment in September, 1940, of the National Legionary State, a period when anti-Semitism became the unifying force in politics. The remainder of the book covers the Holocaust years, and reveals that Romania's premeditated mass murder of Jews was well underway before the Reich's gas chambers became operational. "The Silent Holocause" should prove invaluable for students of World War II, the Holocaust and Jewish and Eastern European studies.
