Allergic Asthma Immunopathogenesis : Immunopathology of the Allergic Asthma
Allergic Asthma Immunopathogenesis: Immunopathology of the Allergic Asthma presents a new glance to the allergic asthma pathophysiology by focusing on the immunopathogenesis and allergo-inflammation mechanisms of asthma and cell signaling pathways that can be used for various research purposes, including the design of anti-asthma treatment and target therapy for scientists and researchers.As asthma is a chronic, complicated airway disease whose mortality and morbidity rates have increased worldwide, some common treatments for asthma cannot control it nor even prevent simple inflammation and relieve shortness of breath.Thus, understanding its molecular pathways and pathophysiology is required in order to better understand the disease.

Our History, Their History, Whose History?
An overview of nationalism and its impact on the study of history from one of India’s most prominent historians. In this timely book, historian Romila Thapar delves into the complex world of nationalism and its impact on the interpretations of the past and on the discipline of history itself.History, she expounds, is no mere collection of information and chronology, and its purpose extends well beyond storytelling. Recognizing nationalism as a powerful force that gives rise to various narratives that provide ancestry to communities and shape the direction of societies, Thapar explores how, in India, two conflicting notions of nationalism have evolved and shaped the idea of the nation.Today, one such nationalistic theory claims the victimization of one religious community by another through centuries of “misrule.” Such a claim willfully ignores ample evidence to the contrary to suit a particular political and ideological purpose.Thapar counters such attempts at misrepresentation by citing several historical instances of the nuanced interface and intermingling of cultures, as well as by showing how today’s conflicts have their roots in the British colonial construction of India’s history.She also addresses the recent controversy surrounding the deletions of sections of Indian history textbooks published by NCERT, the Indian educational council, and suggests that the intention is more likely to be the promotion of a particular reading of history that conforms to the ideology of those in power. Engaging and thought-provoking, Our History, Their History, Whose History? invites readers to question the authenticity of historical narratives touted by one group of nationalists, and it explores the clash between professional historians who study the past to understand our inherited present and fabricators who wield history for political gain.

What is allergic asthma and how is it related to a pollen allergy?
Allergic asthma is a type of asthma that is triggered by exposure to allergens such as pollen, dust mites, pet dander, or mold. When a person with allergic asthma comes into contact with these allergens, their immune system overreacts, causing the airways in their lungs to become inflamed and narrow, leading to asthma symptoms such as wheezing, coughing, and difficulty breathing. Pollen allergy specifically refers to an allergic reaction to pollen from trees, grasses, and weeds, which can trigger allergic asthma in susceptible individuals when inhaled. Therefore, allergic asthma and pollen allergy are related in that exposure to pollen can trigger allergic asthma symptoms in individuals with a pollen allergy.
