Der Autor, “Associate Professor of History” am New College, Florida, und Mitarbeiter eines Forschungsprojekts der MGH mit dem Titel “Bamberger Weltchronistik des 11./12. Jahrhunderts”, liefert mit diesem Buch ein erneutes Beispiel für die Fruchtbarkeit wissenschaftlicher Zusammenarbeit über geographische, institutionelle und sprachliche Grenzen hinaus. Nach seiner englischen Übersetzung des zeitgenössischen Schlussteils der Chronik Frutolfs von Michelsberg und deren Fortsetzungen (Chronicles of the Investiture Contest: Frutolf of Michelsberg and His Continuators, Manchester 2014), bietet er hier, als eine Vorarbeit zu seiner angekündigten Edition der Chronik Ekkehards von Aura, eine gründliche Aufarbeitung der von den besagten Fortsetzungen gestellten Probleme. Die sich daraus ergebende neue Sicht dieser Texte bezeichnet er bescheidenerweise als provisorisch: das gegebene Material ist, wie er bemerkt, zu komplex um “theories in stone” zuzulassen, doch ist seine Fähigkeit, es für überzeugende Beweisführungen auszuwerten, eindrucksvoll genug, und man wird sich also seinen Folgerungen gern anschließen.

It has long been established that diet and nutrition can have a significant impact on health and even help reduce the prevalence of chronic diseases. It makes sense that what we put into our bodies would have some bearing on how our bodies function. Indeed, the World Health Organization developed guidelines focusing on nutrient intake, with a view to reducing the global burden of disease related to obesity, diabetes, cardiovascular disease, several forms of cancer, osteoporosis and dental disease. One exciting area of research, that is little understood, is the potential efficacy of lunasin – a peptide found in soy, legume and some cereal grains – against certain types of cancer. Lunasin has shown potential in the prevention of cancers. It is able to do this by suppressing the proliferation and migration of cancer cells, and anti-inflammation in this tumour environment. A specific area of study within this is lunasin's ability to reduce obesity associated breast cancer development. Associate Professor Chia-Chien Hsieh, a researcher based at the Programs of Nutrition Science, School of Life Science, National Taiwan Normal University, current work is focused on the mechanism of lunasin's effect on the growth of breast cancer cells induced by obesity-associated inflammation. Her goal is to investigate the obesity-related breast cancer chemoprevention of lunasin, which might retard inflammatory responses around tumour microenvironment and even break the crosstalk of macrophages, adipocyte, and breast cancer cells. The aim being to provide potential strategies for ameliorating obesity-related ER(+) or ER(-) breast cancer development.
