| Title: Understanding Cancer: Background, Clinical Trials, Research, and Prevention |
| Edited by: Angela C. Ray |
| ISBN13: 9798895307694 |
| Cancer is not a single disease, but rather a collection of related diseases that can occur almost anywhere in the body. At its core, cancer arises from changes in the genes that regulate how our body's cells function. Genes control how cells work; however, alterations in these genes can lead to cells malfunctioningâ causing them to grow and divide uncontrollably or avoid programmed cell death. These abnormal cells can become cancerous. Understanding how genetic changes contribute to cancer is one way to grasp the disease, while analyzing cancer statistics provides another perspective. Symptoms and treatments vary depending on the type and stage of cancer. Common approaches include surgery, radiation, and chemotherapy, while some treatment plans may also involve hormone therapy, immunotherapy, biologic therapy, or stem cell transplantation. |

| Title: A Closer Look at Antisemitism on College Campuses |
| Edited by: Anton T. Jørgensen |
| ISBN13: 9798895302408 |
| Since Hamasâ brutal attack on Israel on October 7th, there has been a disturbing spike in antisemitic violence. This rampant antisemitism is perhaps most prevalent on American college campuses. Much of what is transpiring on college campuses is not First Amendment protected speech. Pro-Hamas protesters are committing vandalism, destroying university property, setting up large encampments, and in some instances, carrying out acts of violence. Unfortunately, the leadership of many of these universities has refused to respond with moral clarity as to what is happening. Instead, they have opted to cancel graduation ceremonies and in-person classes to avoid further disruptive demonstrations. The colleges that are failing to rein in these violent protests are actively trampling their Jewish studentsâ civil rights. |

| Title: A Closer Look at Counterfeit Products |
| Edited by: Tina R Donahue |
| ISBN13: 9798886972856 |
| Brand owners have been sounding the alarm about dangerous counterfeit products plaguing the internet for years. As consumers have moved online, counterfeiters have embraced the internet also. Their tools are becoming more sophisticated and their targeted products becoming more wide ranging as they dupe unwitting consumers into purchasing fakes. It is clear that the fight against dangerous fakes in e-commerce requires proactive measures by the platforms. SHOP SAFE takes an important step in ensuring that what consumers see online is what they will get as reported in chapter 1. Counterfeit goods infringe on IPR, and can harm the U.S. economy and threaten consumer safety. U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CPB), the U.S. agency tasked with enforcement against counterfeits at the border, has reported that the annual number of small packages sent to the U.S. since fiscal year 2013 more than doubled, and small packages seized often contain counterfeit goods. Chapter 2 examines: how elements of the EU and U.S. approaches to combating counterfeit goods in small packages compare, any enforcement challenges posed by these goods, and the extent to which CBP has taken steps to address these challenges. Chapters 3 and 4 examine counterfeit medications. |
