The Dictionary of Cell & Molecular Biology
The over 10,000 entries in this comprehensive Dictionary of Cell and Molecular Biology provide clear and concise definitions for anyone working in life sciences today. It incorporates related terms from neuroscience, genetics, microbiology, immunology, pathology, and physiology. This fourth revised edition reflects the enormous changes brought about by the explosion of new technologies, especially high throughput approaches and functional genomics. As a result, this edition is over 30% larger than the previous edition, with 3400 new entries. As with the prior edition, additions are reflective of online search queries performed by users of the dictionary. The entries in this authoritative wor...
A Dictionary of Biomedicine
Contains entries on all areas of biomedicine, the study of molecular bioscience relating to disease. Includes terms from the related areas of anatomy, genetics, molecular bioscience, pathology, pharmacology, and clinical medicine.
The Dictionary of Cell and Molecular Biology
The Dictionary of Cell and Molecular Biology, Fifth Edition, provides definitions for thousands of terms used in the study of cell and molecular biology. The headword count has been expanded to 12,000 from 10,000 in the Fourth Edition. Over 4,000 headwords have been rewritten. Some headwords have second, third, and even sixth definitions, while fewer than half are unchanged. Many of the additions were made to extend the scope in plant cell biology, microbiology, and bioinformatics. Several entries related to specific pharmaceutical compounds have been removed, while some generic entries ("alpha blockers, "NSAIDs, and "tetracycline antibiotics, for example), and some that are frequently part ...
The Dictionary of Cell and Molecular Biology
The Dictionary of Cell and Molecular Biology provides straightforward definitions for over 7,000 terms in the exciting and fast moving fields of modern cell and molecular biology. It is aimed at students and professional biologists who encounter new terms in this expanding area. 2000 new entries bringing the total to 7000 entries Obsolete terms have been dropped and old ones revised Wider coverage of relevant molecular and neurobiological terms Each entry has short, clear definitions that will be easily understood by people at all levels and from a diverse range of backgrounds More comprehensive cross-referencing of synonyms and from the text Presentation of certain information in tabular format for clearer and easier reference New tabular material Third edition is nearly double the size of the first edition Content reflects suggestions and comments from readers and users of the on-line version of the second edition Handy appendices section at back of book Builds on the success of the first and second editions which were both highly praised and received many glowing reviews
A Dictionary of Biomedicine
This second edition of A Dictionary of Biomedicine fills the need to define the specialist language used within an evolving field by offering clear, concise definitions of even the most complex biomedical terms. It includes more than 10,000 A-Z entries on all areas of biomedicine, focusing on areas that have developed since the first edition, such as genomics and biomedical science. Entries are authoritative and wide-ranging, covering terms from the related areas of anatomy, genetics, molecular bioscience, pathology, pharmacology, and clinical medicine. Supplementary material includes appendices on the Greek Alphabet, SI Units and single letter codes for Amino Acids. Fully cross-referenced, the dictionary also features useful navigational entries for types of diseases and disorders—for example renal disorders—that list all related entries in the dictionary so the reader can find them quickly. Aimed primarily at molecular bioscientists, clinicians, and students of biomedical courses, the dictionary is also a useful resource for patients and journalists wishing to research a particular disease.
Cell Movement and Cell Behaviour
Some years ago a book reviewer, perhaps with Freudian honesty, remarked that the book in question 'filled a much needed gap in the literature'. That phrase has haunted the writing of this gap-filler and this preface may be considered an apologia. For a number of years I have found myself teaching various groups of students about cell locomotion and cell behaviour: sometimes science students specializing in cell or molecular biology, sometimes immunologists or pathologists who only wanted a broad background introduction. Those students who were enthusiastic, or who wished to appear so, asked for a general background text (to explain my lectures perhaps), and that is what I hope this book will provide. With luck, other scientists who have only a peripheral interest in cell movement will also find this a useful overview. The more proximate origin of the book was a special 'option' subject which I taught for two years to our Senior Honours Cell Biology students in Glasgow.
Biology of the Chemotactic Response
The tendency of a living organism to move to a more favourable environment is a natural but complex reaction, involving the integration of sometimes conflicting environmental stimuli as well as a coordinated mechanical response. The response of motile, single cell organisms to environmental stimuli provides a useful model for understanding first of all how the environment is monitored and sensed, and secondly how this information is processed to result in an integrated and coordinated response. The volume looks at a large number of well-studied examples of the chemotactic response, in prokaryotes and eukaryotes, and casts new light on how cells process information and react to their environment. This fundamental response is of great importance in understanding one of the characteristic features of living organisms.
