Nanobiomaterials and Nanomedicines for Metabolic Disorders delves into the transformative role of nanotechnology in addressing metabolic disorders. The book begins with an overview of nanoparticle classifications and then explores the synthesis of biomaterials and drug delivery systems. In addition, it explores innovative diagnostic and imaging techniques while presenting cutting-edge therapeutic approaches. Later chapters focus on specific metabolic disorders, such as cardiovascular and lifestyle-related conditions. The book is tailored to researchers, students, and healthcare professionals seeking advanced theranostic approaches to these disorders. By bridging nanotechnology with metabolic pathways, the text offers insights into how targeted nanomedicines can improve therapeutic outcomes.Utilizes an interdisciplinary approach, bridging the fields of materials science and biomedical science to improve translational efficiencyCovers a range of nanoparticles and nanotechnologies for the diagnosis and treatment of metabolic disorders, aiding readers to select the most suitable for their workDetails various metabolic pathways and disorders, including glycogen and lysosomal storage, type 2 diabetes, obesity, and metabolic vascular disorders

This book presents an enquiry into the interface between nature, economy and society, which is still in its early stages, notwithstanding the commendable progress and advances made in the field of environmental and natural resource economics within the ever-expanding boundaries of economics as a discipline. It further delineates the evolution of an inter-disciplinary framework for analyzing the status, the future goals, mechanisms and policy instruments that can help move towards a more ecologically sustainable, economically beneficial and socially just future.A pre-requisite for preparing a comprehensive and coherent framework involves unfolding the multiple layers of interconnectedness between the three systems nature, economy and society, each of which has its own internal consistencies as well as externalities. Against this backdrop, the book presents scholarly contributions that focus on four broadly defined building blocks, namely: i) accounting for ecosystems services for life and human well-being; ii) impacts of economic growth on ecosystems; iii) social norms, equity, and governance; and iv) alternative approaches to green and socio-economic systems.The analyses, presented by some of the most eminent national and international scholars, address the major environmental challenges that nations around the world face today and consider which specific policy directions at the international and national level are needed. In particular, the choices India and South Asia now face, as development and environment both need to be addressed adequately, touch on many of these challenges.
