A Sixth-Century Fragment of the Letters of Pliny the Younger
In 'A Sixth-Century Fragment of the Letters of Pliny the Younger,' Edward Kennard Rand offers an in-depth study of a rare vestige of antiquity.

His work, characterized by an erudite analysis rooted in classical philology, situates the fragments within the broader spectrum of Latin literature and its preservation. The book is emblematic of early-20th-century classical scholarship, reflecting Rand's dedication to textual precision and historical context. Edward Kennard Rand, an esteem...

Glycoscience
As a reflection of the quantum leap that has been made in the study of glycostructures, the first edition of this book has been completely revised and updated. The editors give up-to-date information on glycostructures, their chemistry and chemical biology in the form of a completely comprehensive survey. Glycostructures play highly diverse and crucial roles in a myriad of organisms and important systems in biology, physiology, medicine, bioengineering and technology. Only in recent years have the tools been developed to partly understand the highly complex functions and the chemistry behind them. While many facts remain undiscovered, this MRW has been contributed to by a large number of the world’s leading researchers in the field.
