The Visioneers
The story of the visionary scientists who invented the future In 1969, Princeton physicist Gerard O'Neill began looking outward to space colonies as the new frontier for humanity's expansion. A decade later, Eric Drexler, an MIT-trained engineer, turned his attention to the molecular world as the place where society's future needs could be met using self-replicating nanoscale machines. These modern utopians predicted that their technologies could transform society as humans mastered the ability to create new worlds, undertook atomic-scale engineering, and, if truly successful, overcame their own biological limits. The Visioneers tells the story of how these scientists and the communities the...
Intercellular Signaling in Development and Disease
"Cell signaling, which is also often referred to as signal transduction or, in more specialized cases, transmembrane signaling, is the process by which cells communicate with their environment and respond temporally to external cues that they sense there. All cells have the capacity to achieve this to some degree, albeit with a wide variation in purpose, mechanism, and response. At the same time, there is a remarkable degree of similarity over quite a range of species, particularly in the eukaryotic kingdom, and comparative physiology has been a useful tool in the development of this field. The central importance of this general phenomenon (sensing of external stimuli by cells) has been appreciated for a long time, but it has truly become a dominant part of cell and molecular biology research in the past three decades, in part because a description of the dynamic responses of cells to external stimuli is, in essence, a description of the life process itself. This approach lies at the core of the developing fields of proteomics and metabolomics, and its importance to human and animal health is already plainly evident"--Provided by publisher.
Emerging Biofuels
Emerging Biofuels: Stationary and Mobile Applications presents a comprehensive assessment of supply chains and conversion pathways of the promising biofuels in the 21st century. Highlighting the potential of emerging biofuels, the book covers the latest breakthroughs and process intensification strategies for the development of near to mid-term commercialization. Chapters provide readers with an overview of emerging biofuels, key advantages, and major drivers for the biofuel industry. The majority of the book is dedicated to assessing each emerging biofuel, including renewable diesel, bio-CNG, 3rd generation lignocellulosic ethanol, fisher-tropsch biofuels, biohydrogen, microalgal biodiesel,...
Developmental Biology
Examines the relationship among cells, genes, and the environment and of the obstacles and achievements of molecular biologists attempting to understand how to "build" a human body.
Enzymology and Molecular Biology of Carbonyl Metabolism 13
The continuation of an annual series, Enzymology and Molecular Biology of Carbonyl Metabolism is the largest collection of articles on the three major gene families. The scope of the chapters, contributed by leading international scientists, is wide and covers gene regulation to enzyme mechanisms and protein structure. This is the only publication dealing in such depth with just three gene families. It is an important reference for researchers in toxicology and molecular biology.
International Business
This book, now in its Fifth Edition, provides a clear understanding of the contemporary business environment, strategies and the functional aspects in the international business arena, taking into account the rapid growth and the various changes taking place in this field. The book gives uptodate data and information on International Business. It familiarizes the readers with many important areas such as WTO agreements, global marketing, MNCs and their growth strategies, foreign exchange and risk management, regional trade agreements, liberalization and imports, EXIM procedures, and FDI. What's New to this Edition: New Chapters Chapter 14: Country Evaluation and Selection Chapter 28: Institutional Framework for Export Promotion Chapter 29: Management Practices and Strategies of Japanese Multinationals New Case Studies: Managerial Challenges India's Trade Policy European Union Update on Ranbaxy Case Toyota With the addition of these new chapters and new case studies, the new edition should prove highly useful as a text for the students of Management, Commerce and Economics. It would also be of great benefit to practising managers in International Business, exporters and importers.
The Loss of Language
We are a country of languages. We recognized Hindi as our Official Language. We also feel and strongly believe that English is the language of intellectuals and anyone speaking in English is to be respected. A company stood up and fought for the Official Language Act. This is the story of their success and failure.
