Potential History : Unlearning Imperialism
In this theoretical tour-de-force, renowned scholar Ariella Aïsha Azoulay calls on us to recognize the imperial foundations of knowledge and to refuse its strictures and its many violences. Azoulay argues that the institutions that make our world, from archives and museums to ideas of sovereignty and human rights to history itself, are all dependent on imperial modes of thinking.Imperialism has segmented populations into differentially governed groups, continually emphasised the possibility of progress while trying to destroy what came before, and voraciously sought out the new by sealing the past away in dusty archival boxes and the glass vitrines of museums. By practising what she calls potential history, Azoulay argues that we can still refuse the imperial violence that shattered communities, lives, and worlds, from native peoples in the Americas to the Congo ruled by Belgium's brutal King Léopold II, from dispossessed Palestinians in 1948 to displaced refugees in our own day.In Potential History, Azoulay travels alongside historical companions - an old Palestinian man who refused to leave his village in 1948, an anonymous woman in war-ravaged Berlin, looted objects and documents torn from their worlds and now housed in archives and museums - to chart the ways imperialism has sought to order time, space, and politics. Rather than looking for a new future, Azoulay calls upon us to rewind history and unlearn our imperial rights, to continue to refuse imperial violence by making present what was invented as "past" and making the repair of torn worlds the substance of politics.

Art History for Comics : Past, Present and Potential Futures
This book looks at comics through the lens of Art History, examining the past influence of art-historical methodologies on comics scholarship to scope how they can be applied to Comics Studies in the present and future.It unearths how early comics scholars deployed art-historical approaches, including stylistic analysis, iconography, Cultural History and the social history of art, and proposes how such methodologies, updated in light of disciplinary developments within Art History, could be usefully adopted in the study of comics today.Through a series of indicative case studies of British and American comics like Eagle, The Mighty Thor, 2000AD, Escape and Heartbreak Hotel, it argues that art-historical methods better address overlooked aspects of visual and material form.Bringing Art History back into the interdisciplinary nexus of comics scholarship raises some fundamental questions about the categories, frameworks and values underlying contemporary Comics Studies.

Collaboration : A Potential History of Photography
A new, revolutionary history of photography from a stellar team of writers and thinkers that challenges all existing narratives by focusing on the complex collaborations between photographer and subject. Collaboration presents a groundbreaking and multifaceted history of photography which explores photography through the lens of collaboration, challenging the dominant narratives around photographic history and authorship.In a vast, collaborative effort led by five of the great thinkers and practitioners in photography that includes more than 550 photographs and over 80 text contributors, this book breaks apart photography’s ‘single creator’ tradition by bringing to light tangible traces of collaboration – the various relationships, exchanges and interactions which occur between all participants in the event of photography. This book will provide the keys to understanding and decoding the complex politics of seeing.The conditions of collaboration in photography are explored through over 100 photography projects, divided into eight thematic chapters.The photographs from each project are presented non-hierarchically alongside quotes, testimonies, and short texts by guest contributors.These networks of texts and images provide perspective on a vast array of photographic themes, from Araki’s provocative portraits of women to archival files from the Spanish Civil War. Collaboration is not an ultimate account of what photography is, does, or means.Rather, the book is an inspiration for teaching and an open invitation to scholars, activists, photographers and others to practice always with and alongside others and participate actively in this engagement and enquiry.

Kratom : History, Science and Therapeutic Potential
Kratom: History, Science and Therapeutic Potential is the first book to address the unregulated, widespread availability of kratom, with its weak opioid and stimulant effects, coupled with limited awareness of it by healthcare professionals.Kratom has great therapeutic utility and medicinal potential, but more study, caution, and possible regulation is needed.It discusses geographical sourcing, historical uses, current worldwide uses, and potential for treatment of other medical conditions.Most exciting for healthcare professionals will be the implications of this substance's potential for treatment of diseases like depression, ADHD, PTSD, and substance-use disorder, particularly opioid use disorder (OUD). Moreover, kratom and its active alkaloid mitragynine are getting remarkable attention at federal and local governments as more than eight million Americans consume this product annually.Yet, the paucity of information for researchers and clinicians is troublesome.

How is the resting potential and membrane potential created?
The resting potential is created by the unequal distribution of ions across the cell membrane. This is maintained by the sodium-potassium pump, which actively transports sodium ions out of the cell and potassium ions into the cell. The membrane potential is created by the separation of charges across the cell membrane, with the inside of the cell being more negatively charged compared to the outside. This is due to the presence of negatively charged proteins inside the cell and the movement of ions across the membrane.
-
What is the resting potential and the membrane potential?
The resting potential is the electrical potential difference across the membrane of a neuron when it is not being stimulated. It is typically around -70 millivolts and is maintained by the unequal distribution of ions across the membrane. The membrane potential refers to the difference in electrical charge between the inside and outside of the cell membrane, which is essential for the transmission of signals in neurons.
-
Does anyone understand the resting potential?
The resting potential is the electrical charge difference across the cell membrane of a neuron when it is not actively sending a signal. It is typically around -70 millivolts and is maintained by the sodium-potassium pump. Understanding the resting potential is crucial in understanding how neurons communicate and how action potentials are generated. It serves as the baseline state from which neurons can quickly change their electrical charge to transmit signals.
-
Why is the resting potential negative?
The resting potential of a neuron is negative due to the unequal distribution of ions across the neuronal membrane. The inside of the neuron is more negatively charged compared to the outside, primarily due to the presence of more negatively charged proteins and organic anions inside the cell. Additionally, the selective permeability of the neuronal membrane to potassium ions, which are more concentrated inside the cell, also contributes to the negative resting potential. These factors collectively result in a negative resting potential, which is essential for the proper functioning of the neuron and for the generation of action potentials.

What happens during the resting potential?
During the resting potential, a neuron is in a state of readiness to transmit an electrical signal. The inside of the neuron is negatively charged compared to the outside, due to the unequal distribution of ions across the cell membrane. This is maintained by the sodium-potassium pump, which actively transports sodium ions out of the cell and potassium ions into the cell. The resting potential allows the neuron to quickly respond to incoming signals and generate an action potential when needed.
-
Can you explain the resting potential?
The resting potential is the electrical potential difference across the membrane of a neuron when it is not being stimulated. This potential is typically around -70 millivolts and is maintained by the unequal distribution of ions across the membrane. The inside of the neuron is more negatively charged than the outside due to the presence of more negatively charged proteins and an unequal distribution of sodium, potassium, and chloride ions. This difference in charge creates a state of readiness for the neuron to respond to incoming signals.

What is the difference between equilibrium potential, resting potential, and membrane potential?
Equilibrium potential is the membrane potential at which the net flow of a particular ion across the membrane is zero. Resting potential is the membrane potential of a cell when it is at rest, typically around -70 millivolts in neurons. Membrane potential refers to the difference in electrical charge between the inside and outside of a cell, which is maintained by the selective permeability of the cell membrane to different ions. In summary, equilibrium potential is the potential at which there is no net flow of ions, resting potential is the potential of a cell at rest, and membrane potential is the overall potential across the cell membrane.
-
What is the difference between action potential and resting potential?
Resting potential is the electrical charge across the cell membrane of a neuron when it is not sending signals. It is typically around -70 millivolts. Action potential, on the other hand, is a brief electrical impulse that travels down the axon of a neuron when it is stimulated. It is a rapid change in the membrane potential from negative to positive, and it is the basis for neural communication. In summary, resting potential is the baseline electrical charge of a neuron, while action potential is the transient change in electrical charge that allows for communication between neurons.
