Ethan Harris’ life is shattered by a series of apparently unconnected events: the murder of his wife, Rachel, a hacking incident at the bank where he works and the theft of his belongings on the underground. When DCI Scott investigates the case, he finds that Harris is not as squeaky clean as he initially thought; he has big debts and a gambling habit. When the investigation determines that Rachel was almost certainly killed by a professional hit-man, the focus turns to Ethan as the possible procurer of the contract. Devastated, Ethan searches through Rachel’s belongings for some clues, bringing him into the underworld of GCHQ, MI6 and the German Federal Intelligence Service (BND) in a chase across London and Berlin to uncover the truth.
This text, written by administrators, lecturers and researchers addresses the major national education management research themes of the 1980s and 1990s. It analyses school effectiveness, institutional leadership, staff development, managing learning and resources management.

The fascinating story of the quest to decode how a creature works in its entirety. A tiny transparent nematode worm only half a millimeter long has been the subject of intensive study by a select group of biologists since the early 1960s culminating in the award of the 2002 Nobel Prize for Physiology or Medicine to the main protagonists. The voyage of discovery has been arguably one of the most important quests in modern biology and has stimulated much of modern thinking about genetics, development and neurobiology.
GENERAL BIOLOGY: Investigating Life is an introductory level college biology textbook that provides students with an accessible and engaging look at the fundamentals of biology. Written for a two-term, undergraduate course of mixed majors and non-majors, this reader-friendly text is concept driven vs. terminology driven. That is, the text is based on the underlying concepts and principles of biology rather than strict memorization of terminology. Written in a student-centered, conversational style, this educational research-based textbook uniquely connects students and our society to living things from various perspectives—economic, ecologic, medical, and cultural, exploring how the biological world and human realm are intimately intertwined. End-of-chapter questions challenge students to think critically and creatively while incorporating science process skills and biological principles.
GENERAL BIOLOGY is an introductory level college biology textbook that provides students with an understandable and engaging encounter with the fundamentals of biology. Written for a two-semester undergraduate course of biology majors and presented as a bound set of two distinct volumes, this reader-friendly textbook(s) is concept driven vs. terminology driven. That is, the book(s) are based on the underlying concepts and principles of biology rather than the strict memorization of biological terms and terminology. Written in a student-centered and conversational style, this educational research-based book(s) connects students to all aspects of biology from the molecular to the biosphere.

With the rise of genomics, the life sciences have entered a new era. Maps of genomes have become the icons for a comprehensive knowledge of the organism on a previously unattained level of complexity, and the organisation of genetic knowledge in maps has been a major driving force in the establishment of the discipline. This book provides a comprehensive history of molecular genetics and genomics. The first section of the book shows how the genetic cartography of classical genetics was linked to the molecular analysis of gene structure through the introduction of new model organisms such as bacteria and through the invention of new experimental tools such as gene transfer. The second section...
This volume provides a concise yet comprehensive overview of minimal residual disease (MRD) testing. The text reviews the history of MRD testing, MRD testing for acute lymphoblastic leukemia/lymphoma, molecular diagnostics for MRD analysis in hematopoietic malignancies, the use of "difference from normal" flow cytometry in monitoring AML response, ML-DS for measurable residual disease detection, and advancements in next generation sequencing for detecting MRD. Written by experts in the field, Minimal Residual Disease Testing: Current Innovations and Future Directions is a valuable resource for hematologists, oncologists, pathologists, and radiologists on the variety of technologies available to detect MRD and how best to integrate these platforms into clinical practice.
