	This text covers all areas of interest in contemporary parasitology to provide information undergraduate students with the most up to date information in the field of parasitology. Parasitology traditionally has included the study of three major groups of animals: parasitic protozoa, parasitic helminths (worms), and those arthropods that directly cause disease or act as vectors of various pathogens. A parasite is a pathogen that simultaneously injures and derives sustenance from its host. Some organisms called parasites are actually commensals, in that they neither benefit nor harm their host (for example, Entamoeba coli). Although parasitology had its origins in the zoologic sciences, it is today an interdisciplinary field, greatly influenced by microbiology, immunology, biochemistry, and other life sciences. Infections of humans caused by parasites number in the billions and range from relatively innocuous to fatal. The diseases caused by these parasites constitute major human health problems throughout the world.

SE01-463	Cell Biology: Meiosis and Mitosis.
	June, Kristy/ 9781680945355/ Price:US$ 145.00

	This book explains what cells are and introduces the processes of mitosis and meiosis. Meiosis is a special type of cell division that is designed to produce gametes. Before meiosis occurs, the cell will be double diploid and have a pair of each chromosome, the same as before mitosis. Mitosis is used for almost all of your body’s cell division needs. It adds new cells during development and replaces old and worn-out cells throughout your life. The aim of mitosis is to produce daughter cells that are genetically identical to their mothers, with not a single chromosome more or less. Meiosis, on the other hand, is used for just one purpose in the human body: the production of gametes— sex cells, or sperm and eggs. Its goal is to make daughter cells with exactly half as many chromosomes as the starting cell. The recent discovery of analogous proteins that are involved in the regulation of both meiosis and mitosis makes it increasingly apparent that meiosis is closely related to mitosis, and can be regarded as a highly specialized mitotic division.

These stem cells have been found in tissues such as the brain, bone marrow, blood, blood vessels, skeletal muscles, skin, and the liver. They remain in a quiescent or non-dividing state for years until activated by disease or tissue injury. Stem cells are undifferentiated biological cells that can differentiate into more specialised cells and divide (through mitosis) to produce more stem cells (self-renew). They are found in multicellular organisms.

	/ 9781680946888/ Price:US$ 180.00

	This illustrated text provides a clear, balanced, and comprehensive introduction to genetics and genomics. Genetics is the study of heredity. Heredity is a biological process where a parent passes certain genes onto their children or offspring. Every child inherits genes from both of their biological parents and these genes in turn express specific traits. Some of these traits may be physical for example hair and eye color and skin color etc. On the other hand some genes may also carry the risk of certain diseases and disorders that may pass on from parents to their offspring. Humans have long observed that traits tend to be similar in families. It wasn?t until the mid-nineteenth century that larger implications of genetic inheritance began to be studied scientifically.

It is very important to make the specific difference between biotechnology as a distinct science of getting valuable products from molecules, cells or tissues of viable organisms, and any other applications of bioprocesses that are based on using the whole living plants or animals in different fields of human activities such as bioremediation, environmental protection, organic agriculture, or industrial exploitation of natural resources. This book presents topics on biotechnological applications, related to the newest biotechnological achievements in environmental protection, medicine and health care, biopharmaceutical producing, molecular genetics, and tissue engineering are presented.

SE01-456	Functional Genomics.
	Zhu, Lanying/ 9781682502686/ Price:US$ 170.00

	Functional genomics uses genomic data to study gene and protein expression and function on a global scale, focusing on gene transcription, translation and protein- protein interactions, and often involving high-throughput methods. The goal of functional genomics is to understand the relationship between an organism’s genome and its phenotype. Functional Genomics provide a more complete picture of how biological function arises from the information encoded in an organism’s genome. The possibility of understanding how a particular mutation leads to a given phenotype has important implications for human genetic diseases, as answering these questions could point scientists in the direction of a treatment or cure.

	Biostatistics, the branch of statistics, is responsible for the apposite interpretation of scientific data created in the biology, public health and other health sciences. In these sciences, subjects show substantial variation in their response to stimuli. This variation may be due to different treatments or it may be due to measurement error, or other characteristics of the specific subjects. Generally, Biostatistics is associated with separating these different sources of variation. It finds to differentiate between correlation and causation, and to make usable implications from known samples about the populations from which they were pinched.

SE01-405	Biological Petri Nets.
	Wingender, Edgar/ 9781607507031/ Price:EUR 120.00

	It was suggested some years ago that Petri nets might be well suited to modeling metabolic networks, overcoming some of the limitations encountered by the use of systems employing ODEs (ordinary differential equations). Much work has been done since then which confirms this and demonstrates the usefulness of this concept for systems biology. Petri net technology is not only intuitively understood by scientists trained in the life sciences, it also has a robust mathematical foundation and provides the required degree of flexibility. As a result it appears to be a very promising approach to modeling biological systems. This unique compilation of articles is the first book from the journal In Silico Biology (ISB) on Biological Petri Nets. Subjects covered include a summary of essential topics, basic requirements and constraints; quantitative modeling of metabolic networks, gene regulatory and cell-cell communication processes; the concept of hybrid Petri nets; modeling signal transduction pathways; net models of metabolic steady states as well as a number of further applications of Petri net based modeling.

SE01-403	Combined Immunodeficiency Associated with DOCK8 Mutations and Related Immunodeficiencies
	Su, Helen C./ 9781607506935/ Price:EUR 90.00

	The study of rare inherited disorders has led to an improved understanding of how the human immune system is regulated. This knowledge is necessary to develop new therapeutic agents to treat immunodeficiency, autoimmunity, cancer and transplantation. DOCK8 deficiency is one such illustrative disorder which, although only discovered in 2009, has already provided insight into the importance of DOCK8 in regulating the immune system to fight off infections, prevent allergic disease and avoid malignancies. This special issue of Disease Markers presents a collection of eight reviews on the subject of DOCK8 and related immunodeficiencies. Aspects covered include; the biochemical function of DOCK molecules, impaired antibody responses, the role of DOCK molecules in cell trafficking, comparisons between hyper-IgE syndrome due to STAT3, TYK2 and DOCK8 mutations, as well as a number of other related disorders. Together these eight reviews provide a background picture of this fascinating area of human immunodeficiency and identify important areas for future research.

	The Saga of the U.S. Synthetic Fuels Corporation: A Cautionary Tale.
	Bayrer, Ralph L./ 9780983689935/ Price:US$ 28.00

	This book presents a history of the U.S. Synthetic Fuels Corporation (SFC) set in the context of the country’s last large-scale energy crisis, which hit in the 1970s. ‘Synthetic fuels’ can be derived from solid coal and oil shale resources, which in the United States contain the energy equivalent many times over of all the oil in the Middle East.

	Enzymes and Enzyme Technology.
	Kumar, Anil/ 9781905740871/ Price:GBP 40.00

	Enzymes are the spirit of living cells. No metabolic reaction occurs in the cell without them. The study of enzymes is a major challenge to students and teachers alike, thanks to the vast corpus of knowledge being accumulated in the field. Enzymes are a core component at undergraduate and postgraduate level on a host of courses from biology and biotechnology to botany and zoology, but such courses are mainly served by cumbersome, voluminous textbooks. “Enzymes and Enzyme Technology” is a concise, high-level text, written to provide students, lecturers and researchers with the most up to date knowledge relevant to their requirements. Consisting of 18 chapters, which deal with the whole field of enzymes, the book is presented in a manner easily understandable to undergraduates, postgraduates, lecturers and researchers. It can serve both as a prescribed text on courses or as a library reference work.

VE01-57	Astrobiology: Emergence, Search and Detection of Life.
	Basiuk, Vladimir A./ 9781588831378/ Price:US$ 399.00

	According to a brief definition, astrobiology is an area of modern knowledge which studies the origin, evolution, distribution, and future of Life in the Universe. The main aspects of astrobiology include experimental and theoretical modeling of the prebiotic and early biological evolution of Life on Earth or elsewhere; the search for present or past Life, biological or prebiotic molecules on other space bodies in our Solar System (for example Titan, Europa, Mars); the search for habitable environments in our Solar system as well as habitable planets outside it; studies of the ability of different Life forms to adapt to new environmental factors on Earth and in space. This explains why it is hard to find another example of a multidisciplinary field, which brings together collective efforts of experts in biology, chemistry, physics, astronomy, spectroscopy, geology, volcanology, analytical and space instrumentation, among others. The present edition would be impossible without involving a similar list of scientists as contributors. The book is organized into three general sections and contains 19 chapters.

VE01-44-5	Intelligent Design and Religion as a Natural Phenomenon.
	Wilkins, John/ 9780754627630/ Price:GBP 240.00

	Over the past decade a strident public debate has arisen about the nature and origin of religions. Controversies include how exactly religion evolved, whether by individual or group selection, if it is adaptive, and if not, whether and how it is a side effect of evolution. This volume focuses on the issue of naturalizing religion: on the ways in which cognitive science and social sciences have treated religion as a natural phenomenon. It questions whether religious behaviour, institutions, and experiences can be explained in natural terms. The editor brings together some of the best published work on the definition of "religion", intelligent design and the evolution of religion.

VE01-44-4	Evolution of Culture, The.
	Linquist, Stefan/ 9780754627616/ Price:GBP 270.00

	Recent years have seen a transformation in thinking about the nature of culture. Rather than viewing culture in opposition to biology, a growing number of researchers now regard culture as subject to evolutionary processes. Recent developments in this field have shifted some of the traditional academic fault lines. Alliances are forming between researchers trained in anthropology, evolutionary biology, psychology and philosophy. Meanwhile, several distinct schools of thought have appeared which differ in their vision of what an evolutionary approach to culture should look like. This volume contains some of the most influential publications on these subjects from the past few decades. A theoretical background chapter and critical introduction identify the core issues at stake in the new study of cultural evolution. These chapters are followed by sections on each of the four dominant approaches: the phylogenetic approach, memetics, dual inheritance theory and niche construction. Following these are two chapters on closely related topics: the psychological mechanisms of culture and the existence of culture in non-human animals. Overall, this volume provides an up to date overview of some of the most exciting trends in contemporary evolutionary thought.

VE01-44-3	Evolutionary Ethics.
	Levy, Neil/ 9780754627586/ Price:GBP 180.00

	Might human morality be a product of evolution? An increasing number of philosophers and scientists believe that moral judgment and behaviour emerged because it enhanced the fitness of our distant ancestors. This volume collects some recent explorations of the evidence for this claim, as well as papers examining its implications. Is an evolved morality a genuine morality? Does an evolutionary origin deflate the pretensions of morality, or strip it of its force in guiding behaviour? Is an evolutionary approach compatible with realism about morality? All sides of these debates are represented in this volume.

VE01-44-2	Evolutionary Psychology.
	Linquist, Stefan/ 9780754627555/ Price:GBP 290.00

	Evolutionary approaches to the study of human beings have been able to explain the origin and maintenance of many of the features of our bodies. Many thinkers believe that an evolutionary approach will be equally fruitful when it comes to explaining the features of our minds. Since our behaviour is driven by our minds, our cognitive dispositions and processes are likely to have been a target of selection and adaptation. This volume collects recent prominent explorations of this theme, as well as the voices of dissenters who argue that our minds are far more significantly the product of culture than of evolution.

VE01-44-1	Philosophy of Evolutionary Biology.
	Wilkins, John/ 9780754627531/ Price:GBP 300.00

	The impact of evolutionary theory on the philosophy of science has been no less profound than its impact on the science of biology itself. Advances in this theory provide a rich set of examples for thinking about the nature of scientific explanation and the structure of science. Many of the developments in our understanding of evolution resulted from contributions by both philosophers and biologists engaging over theoretical questions of mutual interest. This volume traces some of the most influential exchanges in this field over the last few decades. Focal topics include the nature of biological functions, adaptationism as an explanatory and methodological doctrine, the levels of selection debate, the concepts of fitness and drift, and the relationship of evolutionary to developmental biology.

VE01-44	International Library of Essays on Evolutionary Thought, The., 5-Vols/Set.
	Levy, Neil/ 9780754627678/ Price:GBP 1000.00

	The theory of evolution is one of science's great achievements and it plays a pivotal role in guiding new research. But could the theory also be capable of illuminating phenomena outside the scope of biology? The volumes in this series explore this question by bringing together some of the seminal writings of the past two decades which explore the relevance of evolution and evolutionarily-inspired thought to arenas of human life beyond the merely biological. The volume editors are experts in the philosophy of biology and they focus the volumes on particular controversies within each field: to what extent are the processes of selection and reproduction that explain changes in gene frequencies also at work in explaining the reproduction of ideas? Is the content of moral systems explained by evolution? Can evolution shed light on why we think as we do, perceive as we do, even feel as we do? The series also includes a volume devoted to an understanding of the theory of evolutionary biology as it is applied to the field. These volumes, which are essential for researchers in the areas of the philosophy of science, the history of ideas, applied philosophy, ethics and philosophy and theology, demonstrate a deepened appreciation for the power and ambition of evolutionary thought and a greater understanding of what it means to be an evolved being.

SE01-391	Basic Engineering for Medics and Biologists.
	Lee, T. C./ 9781607505266/ Price:EUR 65.00

	Developments in bioengineering and medical technology have led to spectacular progress in clinical medicine. As a result, increased numbers of courses are available in the area of bioengineering and clinical technology. These often include modules dealing with basic biological and medical sciences, aimed at those taking up these studies, who have a background in engineering. To date, relatively few participants from medicine have taken up courses in biomedical engineering, to the detriment of scientific exchange between engineers and medics. The European Society for Engineering and Medicine (ESEM) aims to bridge the gap between engineering and medicine and biology. It promotes cultural and scientific exchanges between the engineering and the medical/biological fields. This primer consists of a series of First Step chapters in engineering and is principally presented for those with a medical or biology background who intend to start a MSc programme in biomedical engineering, and for medics or biologists who wish to better understand a particular technology. It will also serve as a reference for biomedical engineers.

SE01-387	Lichen Biomonitors: Factors Affecting Response Behaviour.
	Godinho, Rita M./ 9781607504825/ Price:EUR 65.00

	The present book discusses the use of lichen as a biomonitor tool to trace element air deposition, especially focusing on their accumulation performance. The work comprises three main parts, each one addressing relevant issues on factors influencing bioaccumulation. The distribution of accumulated elements, the lichen parameters that need to be used in assessing and ensuring comparability of their characteristics in space and time and the dynamics of the elemental accumulation and release in lichens are all subjects covered in depth in this volume. Lichen Biomonitors: Factor Affecting Response Behaviour starts by presenting the current state of the art of biomonitoring and by introducing relevant issues both generally and specifically recognised as needing attention. The work goes on to explain the intercellular distribution of elements in lichens, the procedures of the comparability testing experiment and, finally, the study of lichens dynamic in more detail. The final chapter discusses and summarises the principal work and the conclusions of the different experiments of the study and highlights the future research that is needed in this area. This book is a must have for people working on biomonitoring issues offering an in depth study particularly in lichen, for those interested or that have previously worked with these organisms.

	Fischer, Astrid C./ 9781607500162/ Price:EUR 60.00

	The presented data indicated that for the PMMA bottles used in our experiments, the affinity for the wall is of similar magnitude to the iron capacity and affinity for naturally occuring ligands in seawater. This makes that iron wall sorption should be seriously considered in small volume experiments, both in assessments of shorter-term dynamics and in end-point observations in equilibrium conditions. Furthermore the effect of two strong Fe-binding organic ligands, phytic acid (PA) and desferrioxamine B (DFOB) was investigated. On short time scales (<36 h) organic complexation of Fe and the influence of the dark-light cycle overruled the impacts of UV light on the directional flow rates of Fe speciation.

	Biologicals seems warranted for two reasons. Firstly, WHO has always been deeply concerned about quality assurance and safety of blood products and related biologicals and the Organization has continuously stressed that only blood products of demonstrated quality, safety and efficacy should be used. However there is a fear that especially countries with limited resources have significant difficulties in fulfilling their responsibilities in this field. Secondly, the ever increasing importance of biopharmaceuticals in medicine in itself was reason enough for this book edition.

	EUROBERRY: Update on Bioactive Behaviour of Berry Fruits.
	Battino, M./ 9781607500322/ Price:EUR 92.00

	The Working Group 4 (“Bioactive compounds of berry fruits affecting human health”) is especially focused on the possible health benefits deriving from berry consumption: the levels and benefits of antioxidants and other bioactive compounds found in these berries should be understood. Accurate and substantiated information must be provided to consumers so that the health benefits are well understood thus allowing informed choices. EUROBERRY Update on Bioactive Behaviour of Berry Fruits addresses the bactericidal activity of some berry extracts, the interesting high folate concentrations of several strawberries varieties and the metabolism of carotenoids during ripening of some berry fruit. A better understanding of berry features as well as the effects of many of berry bioactive compounds operating in cells, may certainly increase the possibility of further developments in the knowledge of berry efficacy either as tasteful food or as natural products delivering bioactive phytochemicals and/or phytonutrients. This book, which provides a deeper insight into the multifaceted world of berry research, will interest a large number of readers working in different biochemical and medical fields.

VE01-49	Handbook of Human Molecular Evolution, 2-Vols/Set.
	Cooper, David N./ 9780470517468/ Price:US$ 717.50

	This conceptual outline informed the selection of the chapters themselves and the connections between them. Some of these chapters are intended to be introductory, aimed at undergraduates and non-specialists. They provide basic information and a list of recommended further reading to encourage the reader to explore a topic in more depth. This approach helps the student reader progress from textbook material to primary literature. Some chapters are overviews that address topics of broad interest and importance, while others focus on quite specialized topics. These chapters are written for postgraduate students and research workers; they contain more detailed information and key references allowing the reader to investigate a specific area in more depth. This format allows professionals to use the books as a quick reference source. The chapters are richly supplied with website information to allow access to relevant data sources over the internet. The self-contained, peer-reviewed articles in this unique handbook have been written by leading scientists in each field. Key topics include the evolution of enzyme function, the use of nucleic acid divergence as a "molecular clock", the origin of non-functional or junk DNA, the role of gene duplication in the emergence of novel gene function and the identification of molecular changes responsible for various human characteristics especially those pertaining to infection, cognition, disease and disease susceptibility. The Handbook of Human Molecular Evolution has adopted an integrated approach to the study of human evolution and seeks throughout to emphasize the interplay between molecular genetic concepts and principles on the one hand, and information acquisition and interpretation on the other. In this way, it is hoped that the 'documents of evolutionary history' written into the fabric of our genome, will become accessible to the widest possible audience.

VE01-36	Biochips Nanotechnology.
	He, Nongyue/ 9781588830722/ Price:US$ 399.00

	Initiated in the 1990’s, biochips have become an extremely important research tool in the field of life sciences and have found many applications in data-mining, highly parallel genome-wide assays, bioinformatics analysis, clinic diagnostics, sample separation and treatment, and monitoring applications. Biochips not only consist of immobilized biomolecules spatially addressed on planar surfaces, but also contain biomolecules fixed in microchannels or microwells, or on an array of beads or sensors. Biochips could fall into different categories as well as different applications or fabricated by different approaches, the role of nanotechnology in preparation and applications of biochips is inevitable. Nanotechnology has made it possible for a single chip to possess more than million features with supra-sensitive detection abilities than that of conventional methods. Nanotechnology has made biochips more applicable for commercialization purpose where biochips could be implanted inside body to dynamically transmit the information and monitor any biological changes in vivo. There has been significant progress on applications of biochips such as DNA chips, protein chips, and carbohydrate chips, and MEMS/NEMS in the field of medical nanotechnology. One could believe that when fused together, biochips and nanotechnology will endlessly bring scientists to newer and promising researching aspects. For this reason, we believe it is of significance to edit and publish a book about the current status of biochips nanotechnology. We also strongly believe that such a comprehensive book associated with various applications of nanotechnology in biochips will be helpful for people to develop new biochips devices, to find new application of nanotechnology and biochips in the coming years, and to bring out more commercialization of biochips and nanotechnology.

SE01-375	Comparative Anatomy of Vertebrates.
	Saxena, R. K./ 9781905740994/ Price:GBP 39.99

	This book has been written taking into consideration that the study of the anatomy of vertebrates has changed drastically in recent years. Previously it was customary to make a classical study of only a few commonly available representative examples. Now it is necessary to also give detailed comparative accounts of organs and organ systems present in all extant forms. The Drs Saxena have introduced the structure-function concept at the level of organs and organ systems, thus providing the reader with a fundamental understanding of the synthesis of comparative anatomy, and in consequence with an understanding of comparative evolutionary morphology. They have presented the diversity of vertebrate organisation of each organ system in 12 chapters, each one containing outstanding, clear, student-friendly line drawings – easy to understand and to reproduce. “Comparative Anatomy of Vertebrates” is a welcome new title in the fields of biology, animal science and evolutionary science, and will be an excellent textbook for students on such courses.

The 50th anniversary of the discovery of CoQ10 was celebrated during the conference and therefore Dr. Fred Crane’s paper, who first isolated coenzyme Q10, opens this publication. Some of the papers deal with the classical bio-energetic and antioxidant properties of coenzyme Q10, with special attention for the biomedical and clinical implications arising from these functions. Its antioxidant aspects are also deeply discussed in several papers. Some of these papers specifically deal with new fields where the antioxidant properties of coenzyme Q have been linked to measurable effects in dermatology and in the field of vascular dysfunction. This book, which includes such a wide variety of articles dealing with CoQ10 involvement in many different fields, will interest many readers. Some of the biochemical data dealing with the basic aspects of coenzyme Q will hopefully lead to better understanding its clinical effects. On the other hand, some of the clinical data might shed a new light on CoQ10 properties.

	Chauhan, Ashok K./ 9781905740765/ Price:GBP 95.00

	The human body contains 20 times more microbes than it does cells and in each cell there are about 10 microbes. Approximately 99% of the viruses and bacteria inhabiting our body are yet to be identified. Some of our colonists, - viruses in the cells of our brain - influence even our thoughts and feelings. This book illustrates how microbes and human life go hand in hand. Microbes for Human Life elaborates on the relevance of microbes and their role in everyday human life, microbes in food production and agriculture, in biotechnology and industry, and in ecology and environment. It also discusses some of the negative impacts of microbes on our world, such as their role in causing diseases and bio-terrorism. But the primary focus is on how microbes, in their incredible variety, are essential to human life. The book presents the many ways in which we intentionally, and at times unintentionally, utilize microbes to improve our lives and enhance our life experience.

SE01-344	From Dynamics to Structure and Function of Model Bio-Molecular Systems.
	Fontaine-Vive, Fabien/ 9781586037413/ Price:EUR 50.00

	The purpose of this thesis was to extend recent works on structure and dynamics of hydrogen bonded crystals to model bio-molecular systems and biological processes. The tools that are used are neutron scattering (NS) and density functional theory (DFT) and force field (FF) based simulation methods. The quantitative and parameter-free link (in the case of DFT methods) between structure and dynamics has been applied to strong hydrogen bonded crystals and bio-polymers such as collagen and DNA. In several SSHB crystals, DFT normal modes and molecular dynamics calculations revealed the mechanism of proton transfer as being driven by low frequency phonons. In DNA, the structure-dynamics-function is base-pair opening, which is related to various bio-physical processes like replication and transcription. Force field methods were used and normal mode analysis to identify modes with base-pair opening character. The oriented DNA films for experiments were made using the wet spinning method and the equipment was successfully installed and modernized during the thesis at ILL.

SE01-343	Free Radicals in Biology and Medicine: From Inflammation to Biotechnology.
	Aruoma, Okezie I./ 9781586036836/ Price:EUR 220.00

	Oxidative stress and inflammatory cell death / tissue damage have been implicated in a wide array of human diseases, including cancer, neurodegenerative diseases, diabetes, inflammatory joint diseases,; cardiovascular dysfunctions as well as ageing. Oxidative stress mediates the activation of transcription factors such as NF?B that, in turn, induce the transcription of certain genes promoting cytokine production. Release of these cytokines results in the enhancement of inflammatory responses and activation of endothelial cells in distant organs. The inflammatory cascade is then triggered by the induction of adhesion molecules and the generation of cytokines and other inflammatory mediators. Given that reactive oxygen and nitrogen species (ROS and RNS respectively) generated by infiltrated neutrophils into distant organs act directly as noxious agents reacting with molecular components, thereby enhancing inflammatory processes and therefore influencing cell viability, ROS and RNS have become potential therapeutic targets for prophylactic biofactors. Whilst their production by phagocytic cells is, of course, essential for the eradication of invading pathogens, and the capacity of selected chemotherapeutic agents to generate such species in specific `target' cells is well known in cancer research, the novel therapeutic actions and potential mechanisms of action of ozone as a microbicidal agent in clinical dentistry are now being advocated. The focus of this publication prominently encompasses the pivotal roles of ROS and RNS in the pathogenesis of many clinical conditions (together with their involvement in the ageing process of lower (yeast) cells, and higher organisms including plants), and discusses the potential applications of dietary-derived antioxidants to interfere with the biomolecular mechanisms of these processes and hence offer realistic therapeutic or prophylactic potentials.

SE01-342	Molecular Biology of Spirochetes.
	Cabello, Felipe C./ 9781586036652/ Price:EUR 126.00

	Diseases produced by spirochetes, including Lyme borreliosis, syphilis and leptospirosis, are on the rise worldwide, and because the biology of their causative organisms, their epidemiology, and clinical presentation display important variations in different geographical areas. For example B. burgdorferi sensu lato produces approximately 20,000 cases of Lyme borreliosis a year in the United States and 60,000 cases in Europe, but B. burgdorferi sensu stricto, B. afzelii and B. garinii are transmitted by different vectors and have different reservoirs and clinical presentations in these different geographic areas. Awareness and better understanding of these variations by researchers in the field is thus highly relevant to improvements in their prevention and treatment, and critical for improvement of human health. This volume focuses on a series of state of the art presentations of the research taking place in the laboratories of the contributors. As such, it may be useful as an introduction to those individuals entering in the burgeoning field of spirochete research. This book could serve as a stimulus for researchers in the field to widen collaborations and exchanges between investigators in the different geographical areas where spirochetal diseases are common since these interactions can only be of benefit to the field.

SE01-314	Endoplasmic Reticulum: A Metabolic Compartment.
	Benedetti, Angelo/ 9781586034740/ Price:EUR 116.00

	The endoplasmic reticulum is a continuous membrane network in the cytosol, which encloses its internal compartment, the endoplasmic reticulum lumen. Several metabolic pathways are compartmentalised within the ER lumen, for example hydrolysis of glucose 6-phosphate, glucuronidation of endo- xenobiotics, posttranslational modification of proteins including redox reactions required for oxidative folding, oxidoreduction of steroid hormones, synthesis of ascorbate. Therefore, enzyme activities of these pathways depend on the special luminal microenvironment, on access to substrates and on release of products. However, in spite of great efforts, the molecular mechanism for the generation and maintenance of this special microenvironment still remains to be elucidated. Beside the well-known functions of the endoplasmic reticulum, such as calcium signaling and the synthesis of secretory proteins, recent findings underlined the importance of the intraluminal redox biochemistry and the role of membrane transporters. The field is currently undergoing extensive reappraisal, new transporters have been identified either molecular or functional level. The local synthesis and the membrane transport of redox active compounds (pro- and antioxidants) seem to be important not only in the disulfide bond formation, but also in the generation of intracellular proliferative/apoptotic signals. The different points of views in this publication help highlight the potential importance of several recently described phenomena, whose significance needs elucidation.

	Essays in Bioinformatics.
	Moss, D.S./ 9781586035396/ Price:EUR 116.00

	The rapidly growing number of genomic data has had a profound impact on how bioinformatics is being taught to biologists. In the earlier days it was customary to lead the students gradually through all the concepts and tools, more recently this approach became less practicable because of the fast development of the field. The main body of this book consists of chapters summarizing the fundamental concepts of bioinformatics, based on the topics presented at a course held in Dubrovnik, Croatia, in 2003. The second part of the book contains application papers submitted by the students after the course.

SE01-323	The Biology of Terrestrial Isopods, V: Proceedingsof the 5th International Symposium on the Biology of Terrestrial Isopods.
	Sfenthourakis, Spyros/ 9789004124967/ Price:EUR 145.00

	Oniscids are wonderful model organisms for studies addressing more general biological questions, and they arguably demonstrate the best evolutionary progression in any extant group of organisms. Their unique properties as terrestrial crustaceans living in a wide range of habitats from coast to desert offer great advantages to study physiological and behavioural adaptations, ecological, phylogenetic, and biogeographical patterns, and evolutionary processes. This volume contains contributions, which were presented at the 5th International Symposium on the Biology of Terrestrial Isopods that took place on Crete, May 2001, and which was dedicated to the memory of the late Marie Flasarova. All papers have been peer-reviewed before inclusion in the book. The contributions give a well balanced account of current research on all aspects - covering systematics, ecology, biogeography, morphology, physiology, immunology, endocrinology, behaviour, and hostparasite relationships - of biology of the remarkable creatures included in the Isopoda suborder Oniscidae, the only crustaceans that have conquered almost all terrestrial habitat types. This book will prove useful to all crustacean researchers, working on either terrestrial, freshwater or marine organisms.

SE01-310	Dog.
	McHugh, Susan/ 9781861892034/ Price:GBP 12.95

	This book unravels the debate about whether dogs are descended from wolves, and moves on to deal with canines in mythology, religion and health, dog cults in ancient and medieval civilizations as disparate as Alaska, Greece, Peru and Persia, and traces correspondences between the histories of dogs in the Far East, Europe, Africa and the Americas. Dog also examines the relatively recent phenomenon of dog breeding and the invention of species, as well as the canine’s role in science fact and fiction; from Laika, the first astronaut, and Pavlov’s famous conditioned dogs, through to science fiction novels and cult films such as A Boy and his Dog.

VE01-14	Evolution Debate, 1813-1870, The. 9-Vols/Set.
	Knight, David/ 9780415289221/ Price:GBP 525.00

	The history of evolutionary thought is often seen as a triumph of secularism in the form of 'scientific naturalism', over religious bigotry. But for those involved in the debate during the nineteenth century, these divisions were not so clearly marked. This collection of nine volumes will bring together key works in the development of evolutionary theory from fundamentalists, such as Philip Gosse who insisted on a literal reading of Genesis, to T.H. Huxley, whose passionate defence of evolution theory earned him the title of 'Darwin's Bulldog'. Between these two extreme positions are situated the works of Cuvier, Wallace, Buckland, Lyell and Owen, all of whom rejected Darwin's version of evolution to varying degrees. Each volume includes a new introduction by the editor, which provides an historical and intellectual context for each of the works, while a general introduction in the first volume provides an overview of the collection as a whole.

VA09-214	Dictionary of Biological Psychology.
	Winn, Philip/ 9780415136068/ Price:GBP 250.00

	Biological Psychology is the study of psychological processes in terms of biological functions. A major obstacle to understanding dialogue in the field has always been its terminology which is drawn from a variety of non-psychological sources such as clinical medicine, psychiatry and neuroscience, as well as specialist areas of psychology such as ethology, learning theory and psychophysics. For the first time, a distinguished international team of contributors has now drawn these terms together and defined them both in terms of their physical properties and their behavioural significance. The Dictionary of Biological Psychology will prove an invaluable source of reference for undergraduates in psychology wrestling with the fundamentals of brain physiology, anatomy and chemistry, as well as researchers and practitioners in the neurosciences, psychiatry and the professions allied to medicine. It is an essential resource both for teaching and for independent study, reliable for fact-checking and a solid starting point for wider exploration.
