The monograph raises a number of problems widely discussed in modern science: the specific features of the social thought of Italian Renaissance humanism, the correlation of the ideals formed in it and their practical refraction, the elitism of the humanistic movement, the continuity of the humanist ideas of the 15th century and Renaissance culture of the 16th century. The author relies on the analysis of a large number of works of Italian humanists, as well as thinkers of the Late Renaissance and other documentary material. The book is illustrated by the works of the 15th and 16th centuries artists.
For historians, art historians, philosophers, literary critics, culturologists, political scientists and all interested in the history of world culture.
Books in the ‘Rereading the Classics’ series give a modern analysis of the works that form part of school literature curricula. This is the first attempt to provide a detailed insight into the spiritual, moral and religious aspects of the art of 19th and 20th century Russian writers. The series is offered as the basis of modern knowledge about Russian literature, which is necessary for high school students to pass school-leaving examinations and to gain admission to any institution of higher learning. In this manual, a modern critic re-reads the Griboyedov comedy. Since Russian classical literature in the spiritual basis is traditionally Christ-centered, the image of Christ is invisibly present in the work and there is that unshakable, absolute reference point which should be considered when analyzing the images of characters, their characters and deeds. Referring to the text of the comedy and the biography of Griboyedov, the author proves that the new reading of the comedy corresponds to the true deep design of the author in his timeless work ‘Woe from Wit’.

The title of this book (‘To Each According to Their Faith’) expresses the very essence of the proposed reading of The Master and Margarita. The author draws the reader into a leisurely journey through that ‘labyrinth of cohesions’, which, by definition of L. Tolstoy, is every true artistic work, especially such a complex one as this Bulgakov novel. The artistic and philosophical concept of M. Bulgakov's main book is viewed in comparison with other major phenomena of Russian literature of the 20th century — in particular, with the ‘Blue Book’ of M. Zoshchenko, in which the motley ‘klopovnik’ of the Soviet NEP and post-NEP life, as in Bulgakov’s novel, is depicted against the background of world history.
The book is addressed to teachers of Russian literature, high school students, university entrants, students, as well as all admirers of Bulgakov.

This textbook includes a course of lectures delivered by the author at the Faculty of Philosophy of the Moscow State University in 2008–2009. It contains a review and interpretation of the basic philosophical ideas of outstanding theologians of the 4th century from Cappadocia — the saints Basil the Great, Gregory the Theologian and Gregory of Nyssa. The joint literary activity of these Ancient Church teachers gives reason to speak of the Cappadocian school as a special phenomenon in the history of patristics ‘golden age’. Having received education in Athens, the great Cappadocians linked the achievements of Christian theological thought with the tradition of ancient philosophizing as seeking answers to the most profound questions a human can ask.
The manual highlights the social and literary activities of the Cappadocian school, carried out in the paradigm of an acute ideological confrontation with the Arianism, which in the middle of the 4th century received official support of the Roman Empire. Representatives of the Cappadocian school became the ideological inspirers of the Novocenean movement and laid the foundations of the ‘Cappadocian synthesis’, selectively applying in their theological constructs the methods of Platonic idealistic dialectics.
For teachers, students and graduate students of philosophical faculties.

The monograph is devoted to carnosine dipeptide, discovered at the beginning of the 20th century by V. Gulevich. It considers the chemical properties, distribution in tissues and metabolism of carnosine. Moreover, it describes studies of its biological role as a specific hydrophilic antioxidant in excitable tissues. The protective role of carnosine in the work of neurons and muscle cells under unfavorable conditions has been analyzed in detail. Particular attention is paid to the metabolism of carnosine in neurodegenerative diseases. The work gives grounds for the possibility of using carnosine and its derivatives for diseases of the nervous, endocrine and immune systems.
The book is addressed to scientific workers: biologists and physicians, as well as for students and specialists undergoing advanced training in the field of natural science.
The "catalog" includes books published by the Moscow University Press in 2001-2010. It is a continuation of the "Catalog", which included books for 1989-2000.

The book introduces the methods of stationary and non-stationary non-relativistic collision theory and serves to develop skills for their practical application in problems of modern physics. Special emphasis is placed on the methods and concepts used in the theory of collisions involving composite systems. The material is divided into lectures, at the end of each lecture exercises are given, selected so that the student, subject to consistent assimilation of the material, can do them independently.
The book will also be useful for graduate students and researchers specializing in atomic physics, nuclear and particle physics.
Collection of scientific papers in 12 volumes.

The monograph presents a new approach to the construction of computational algorithms in gas dynamics. The algorithms are based on discrete models for one-particle distribution function. The book describes possibilities of interpreting the resulting system of finite difference equations as a model for the description of viscous gas flow and their application for modeling modern problems of gas dynamics on high performance multiprocessor computer systems.
For specialists in mathematical modeling, gas dynamics and applied mathematics, postgraduate students, students studying and using methods of mathematical modeling, computational experimenting.
