DeCODING Baby

Find Out What Your Baby Is Thinking and Feeling and How to Communicate with Her

By: Diane L. Fraser

Your baby is trying to tell you something. And learning to understand her is the first step in becoming a better parent---and in providing the basis for a well adjusted, sociable adulthood. Now, you can pinpoint your baby's individual learning CODE. * The V CODE: is your baby content to stare at the little clowns on her blanket, or a picture of another baby? Watch out--you might just have a V coder! * The A CODE: The colorful mobile holds no interest for her. But the music box sounds make her giggle, shriek and "talk" all through the night----she's an A coder. * The K CODE: You've considered putting her on a lease, she wiggles and crawls so much. She gets into every nook and cranny, and even falls asleep while standing! WOW---you've got a K coder!

Signalling Pathways in Apoptosis

By: Diane Watters,Martin Lavin

Apoptosis, or programmed cell death, is a necessary process by which a cell may die without adversely affecting its environment. It plays a crucial role in normal development, and in the body's defence mechanisms against disease. Too much cell death is destructive, leading to neurodegenerative diseases and impaired development. Conversely, too little cell death can lead to an increased susceptibility to cancer and sustained viral infection. Apoptosis is a matter of balance Dramatic progress has been made in the study of apoptosis over the past decade. One of the most rapidly expanding knowledge bases being established is on the molecular mechanisms controlled by a variety of gene products including Bcl-2, caspases, death receptors, and proteolytic targets, as well as the central role of the mitochondrion. The major challenge in apoptosis research is how the protein products involved operate in an intricate web of signaling pathways that also play a crucial role in cell proliferation and differentiation. This book concentrates on elucidating these signal transduction mechanisms, an area not properly reviewed by other apoptosis texts.

DancePlay

Creative Movement for Very Young Children

By: Diane Lynch-Fraser

The creation of a professional therapist and former dancer, Danceplay brings to parents a new and wonderful way for interacting with their very young children--even before verbal exchange has fully begun. Designed for eighteen-month--to four-year-olds--and their mothers and fathers--it is a stimulating approach to fostering a child's social and intellectual growth through creative physical play. The exercises, based on the insights and knowledge of developmental psychologists, progress from simple movements suitable for the eighteen-month-old, to sequences involving complex ideas and actions for the four-year-old. Levell One begins with stretching adn limbering and gradually moves to an exploration of the body and its parts. In Level Two the child learns to distinguish self from environment through a variety of danceplays. And the focus of Level Three is integration, as games, music, and movement develop the ability to percieve a situation as a complex experience. Touching is emphasized throughout, and the fun and sharing add immeasurably to the everyday interaction between parent and child. Charming line drawings illustrate an easy-to-follow text, and necessary equipment is limited to simple household items. It is difficult to imagine an easier, more pleasurable way to help your child develop as he or she grows.
