The Diary of James Clegg of Chapel en Le Frith, 1708-1755: 1708-36
James Clegg (1679-1755), son of James Clegg and Ann Livesey, ". . . was a Dissenting minister . . . [who] was in demand over a wide area . . . he was in touch, either in person or by letter, with a wide cross-section of provincial society . . . [and] showed himself to be well aware of matters of concern in the nation at large . . . when religion and politics were still inextricably linked . . ."--Dust jacket.
From Metabolite, to Metabolism, to Metabolon
Current Topics in Cellular Regulation, Volume 33: From Metabolite, to Metabolism, to Metabolon is a collection of articles on the study of the machinery of the living cell. The book is also a tribute to Paul Srere, an eminent biochemist, on the occasion of his sixty-fifth birthday. The book contains contributions written by students, postdoctoral fellows, and biochemists within Paul Srere's broad sphere of influence. The text provides articles that discuss topics on cellular infrastructure and metabolic organization; how carbohydrates cross the lipid membrane of bacterial cells; and macromolecular processes. The structural aspects of citrate biochemistry; the electron transport systems; nucleotide biosynthesis; enzyme organization and the direction of metabolic flow; and bioengineering applications are tackled as well. Biochemists, cytologists, and cell biologists will find the book very insightful.
Renewing the Promise
The President's Council of Advisors on Science & Technology has sought to identify the weak points that threaten the otherwise strong web that binds together the federal government & the tax-paying public with the research-intensive universities into a major scientific research & higher education partnership. They have also considered the relationship between universities & industry. In this report, they present their findings & recommendations for strengthening the overall enterprise.
Coherent Madness: Effective Defense Against Covert Warfare
(Virtually banned in the west. Reserved for posthumous critique. Buy it while I am still alive)Covert warfare to eliminate threats or research electronic, chemical and biological agents on unwitting, hapless civilians is becoming more widespread than ever before. A tax money supported network of dedicated criminals for whom waging covert warfare is a way of life is on the increase, their job to punish by torture and eliminate people who pose a threat to those in positions of power. Intelligence agencies, there to protect citizens from internal and external foes, the judiciary, as well as the police forces, are heavily involved, giving the nod, protection, the best of their know-how and technology to the activity and those involved.
Origins of Plastids
Origins of Plastids looks at symbiosis and symbiogenesis as a mechanism of evolution. This theory of endosymbiotic evolution postulates that photosynthetic prokaryotes living as endosymbionts within eukaryotic cells gradually evolved into the organelle structures called chloroplasts. The theory is controversial but has been strongly advocated by Lynn Margulis. Based on a colloquium held at the Bodega Bay Marine Laboratory of the University of California at Davis, Origins of Plastids reviews recent data on this most basic problem in plant evolution. In it, leading researchers in the field apply the theory of endosymbiotic evolution to plastid origins, producing an important new reference work for both professionals and graduates interested in the origins of life, the origins of the eukaryotic cell and its organelles, and the evolution of the higher plants in general. Origins of Plastids represents the state-of-the-art in its field. It should find a place on the bookshelves of people interested in microbiology, plant science, phycology, cell biology, and evolution.
Water and Ions in Biological Systems
As the First International Conference on Water and Ions in Biological Systems (Bucharest, June 25-27, 1980) was appreciated as a success, a second one was organized in the fall of the year 1982 under the sponsorship of the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO), the Romanian Academy of Medical Sciences, the Romanian Biophysical Society (Union of Societies for Medical Sciences in the Socialist Republic of Romania) and in co operation with the International Union for Pure and Applied Bio physics (IUPAB). The responsibility for the scientific program and organization of the Second Conference on Water fell on an International Scientific Committee which included...
Franz Brentano’s Philosophy After One Hundred Years
This volume brings together contributions that explore the philosophy of Franz Brentano. It looks at his work both critically and in the context of contemporary philosophy. For instance, Brentano influenced the phenomenology of Edmund Husserl, the theory of objects of Alexius Meinong, the early development of the Gestalt theory, the philosophy of language of Anton Marty, the works of Carl Stumpf in the psychology of tone, and many others. Readers will also learn the contributions of Brentano's work to much debated contemporary issues in philosophy of mind, ontology, and the theory of emotions. The first section deals with Brentano’s conception of the history of philosophy. The next approac...
