?tress causes disease. Redox imbalance is why.?From that seven-word thesis, ?ne Disease: Redox Imbalance?builds the provocative case that stress-driven imbalance in the body? oxidation/reduction (redox) systems, is central to the onset and progression of chronic diseases ranging from aging to cancer, heart disease, diabetes, mental illness and more. Author Michael Sherer has synthesized research drawn from over 250,000 articles on Pubmed, a repository of global medical research, to explain what redox imbalance is, why you and even your doctor are likely unaware of it, and to explore the role your body? redox systems play in maintaining health, building resilience to future stress, and, when overtaxed or damaged, lead to symptoms and disease.The science behind ?ne Disease: Redox Imbalance?is drawn from over three decades of research from the field of redox biology. In the 2015 publication of ?he Redox Code,?researchers Helmut Sies and Dean Jones placed redox systems in the pivotal role of mediating the body? adaptation to environmental change (stress). The implications of this assertion are far-reaching, namely, that malfunctioning of these redox systems was central to all disease. The publication of this book represents one of the first efforts to raise public awareness and understanding of this complex but important body of scientific research while providing practical applications that anyone can adopt and benefit from.

As a teacher of physical chemistry, I noticed that students, even in advanced classes, have difficulties in understanding the basics of redox chemistry. The quantification of redox quantities, such as potentials requires reference systems (or electrodes) for comparison. Section 4 discusses the importance of reference systems (or electrodes) in the determination of electrochemical quantities. Several reference electrodes with their standard potentials are provided, and the trends of redox potentials across the periodic table are discussed. In addition to reference electrodes, the quantification of redox quantities requires electrochemical cells. Section 5 summarizes the basic components of electrochemical cells in terms of electrode and electrolyte, as well as the main mathematical quantities governing the redox reactions at equilibrium explained by the Nernst equation. To further clarify the discussed concepts, numerous questions and problems with detailed answers are provided. Most of these questions are formulated by students like you. I believe that these two Sections (4 and 5) would greatly help students with levels varying from high school to advanced university classes.

A major reference for the marine aquarist. The 512 pages of text, tables, figures, and drawings clearly explain the techniques and technology of modern marine aquarium systems: trickle filtration, redox potential, carbonate hardness, protein foam skimming, biological filtration, high density lighting, .. The latest classification of invertebrates and all other living organisms is also included with expanded discussion of the invertebrate groups most important to marine aquarists.
