Diet and Atherosclerosis by Cesare Sirtori
The papers in the present volume were presented on November lst-3rd, 1973, in Rome on the occasion of an International Post- graduate Course sponsored by the Italian Society for the Study of Atherosclerosis, the Istituto Superiore di Sanita, and the Fondazione Giovanni Lorenzini. The purpose of this course was to gather information and to draw attention to the role of diet in the pathogenesis of experi- mental and human arteriosclerosis, as well as its prevention and therapy. Konrad Bloch, in the opening lecture, emphasized the features unique to fatty acid synthesis in animal tissues and discussed the importance of comparative biochemical research in the study of control mechanisms of lipid biosynthesis. The lectures in the morning were followed in the afternoon by short practical demonstrations (R. Angelico, O. Lostia, A. Menotti, D.H. Blankenhorn, A. Ferro Luzzi). Particular attention was paid to the problem of dietary edu- cation in Italy, during a round-table discussion on November 2nd (G. Bergami, G. Ricci, G. Crepaldi, F. Fidanza, S.F. Feruglio, M. Proia, A. Mariani, L. Ribolzi). The educational purpose of the course is obvious in Italy, a country where the people had been accustomed for centuries to the intake of a virtually nonatherogenic diet, until, quite recently, the migration from agricultural to industrialized areas assumed sociologically significant levels. It was then found that the lipoproteinemic patterns of the migrated population had shifted toward higher levels.| SKU | NLS9781461590316 |

"I was paying $11.99/month for Kindle Unlimited but realized I was renting books, not owning them. Bought this PDF and it's mine forever. Never going back to Kindle."
"Switched from Kindle to these PDFs. Same book, but I actually OWN it now. No monthly fees, no app required. Worth every penny."
"Kindle Unlimited kept raising prices. This is a one-time purchase and the file is permanently on my iPad. Best decision I've made for my reading habit."
"I compared Kindle vs this store. Kindle is cheaper monthly but you don't own anything. Here I paid once and the PDF is mine for life. Highly recommend."
"Left Kindle behind after they removed a book I was reading mid-series. With this PDF, nobody can take it away from me. True ownership feels good."
"Was skeptical about paying $18.95 when Kindle shows $3.99, but then I did the math — Kindle Unlimited is $143/year! This is way better value long term."
"Love that I can read this on any device without installing the Kindle app. The PDF works on my laptop, phone, and tablet seamlessly. So much freedom."
"My Kindle subscription was getting expensive. Switched to buying PDFs here and I'm saving money while actually building a permanent digital library I control."
