Industrial Innovation in China
This book, based on extensive original research, examines the factors which lead to successful innovation in Chinese industry. Considering the large and important Chinese mining industry in detail, it argues that innovation is key for success in all industries, not just new "tech" industries. It reveals how the interaction of universities, governments and industries is highly significant, considers how some parts of the industry, such as the mining and mineral processing stages, are more innovative than other stages, such as prospecting and mining equipment manufacturing, and suggests that this is explained both by the distance between final products and the market and commercialisation, and by the intensity of the interaction between the industrial company and the university or research institute. Throughout, the book includes examples and case studies to highlight the points made.

Autophagy Of The Nervous System: Cellular Self-digestion In Neurons And Neurological Diseases
What is autophagy? Why would neurons digest parts of themselves through autophagy? How can autophagy save the lives of cells under some conditions, but act as an accomplice to cell death in others? By what mechanisms are autophagy-related processes dysregulated in neurological diseases, and are there therapeutic strategies to correct or compensate for their dysfunction? This book provides an expert view of major concepts in autophagy research with a focus on autophagy in neurons. Experimental evidence for evolutionarily conserved and specialized regulatory mechanisms for autophagy in the mammalian nervous system will be presented, including recent data on braking mechanisms. Areas of intersection with cell death, the ubiquitin-proteasome system, chaperone-mediated autophagy, and the endocytic pathway will be reviewed, along with emerging areas of mitochondrial autophagy (mitophagy) and the autophagic regulation of neuritic/synaptic processes. Advances in delineating mechanisms by which autophagy is involved in the pathophysiology of neurological disorders, including Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, Huntington's, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, ischemia/hypoxia and lysosomal storage diseases, will be discussed along with current drug development strategies targeting autophagy.

Avicenna’s Theory of Intentionality
Intentionality – how thoughts represent reality – lies at the heart of many contemporary philosophical questions in the philosophy of mind. Over the past twenty years, Avicenna's conception of intentionality has received considerable scholarly attention. This book provides the first comprehensive analysis of Avicenna's theory of intentionality.Demonstrating how Avicenna distinguished theories of meaning (maʿnā as signification) from intentionality ('the power to represent'), this work presents his theory of intentionality as a form of non-reductive representationalism. It argues that, for Avicenna, cognitive intentionality is explained by the existence of a representational power ultimately rooted in the rational soul as immaterial self-awareness. Furthermore, the book demonstrates that Avicenna's thoughts on intentionality cannot be neatly assimilated into contemporary naturalistic or phenomenal approaches, as his theory strikes a balance between the two. This study offers a novel and systematic perspective on contemporary debates surrounding Avicenna's theory of cognition and intentionality.Scholars and students of medieval philosophy, Islamic intellectual history, and philosophy of mind will find it essential reading. It is also suitable for academic libraries, philosophy publishers, and those exploring non-Western philosophical traditions.
