Confucius and Cicero
This book explores the relationships between ancient Roman and Confucian thought, paying particular attention to their relevance for the contemporary world. More than 10 scholars from all around the world offer thereby a reference work for the comparative research between Roman (and early Greek) and Eastern thought, setting new trends in the panorama of Classical and Comparative Studies.
Human Cytomegalovirus
This volume has gathered some of the experts in the field to review aspects of our understanding of CMV and to offer perspectives of the current problems associated with CMV. The editors and authors hope that the chapters will lead to a better understanding of the virus that will assist in the development of new and unique antivirals, a protective vaccine, and a full understanding of CMV's involvement in human disease.
Ribonuclease P
The Discovery of Ribonuclease P and Enzymatic Activity of Its RNA Subunit Sydney Brenner and Francis H. C. Crick had a specific project in mind when they offered Sidney Altman a position in their group in 1969 to conduct postdoctoral research at the Medical Research Council Laboratory of Molecular Biology (LMB) in Cambridge, England. At the time, an intense international competition was on- ing in as many as a dozen labs to determine the three-dimensional structure of tRNA. At the LMB, Aaron Klug was attacking the structure by crystallographic analysis with Brian F. C. Clark providing large amounts of purified phenylalanine tRNA. (Eventually, Aaron announced his empirically determined 3-D st...
Ribozymes and siRNA protocols
In this completely updated and expanded edition of a classic bench manual, hands-on experts take advantage of the latest advances in ribozyme, DNAzyme, hammerhead ribozymes and derivatives, and RNA interference technologies to describe in detail the exciting and successful methods now available for gene inactivation in vitro and in vivo. Their optimized techniques employ hairpin ribozymes, DNAzymes, hammerhead ribozymes and derivatives, group I intron ribozymes, RNase P ribozymes, and siRNAs, as well as general methods for RNA structure analysis, delivery of oligonucleotides, and gene therapy. Also provided are novel methods for identifying accessible cellular mRNA sites; group I intron and ...
Mitochondria in Health and Disease
Mitochondrial biology reinvented itself and became a new world that has attracted new scientists influencing every field of biomedical research. Mitochondrial research is growing and changing, as reflected by the exponential rise in the number of conferences covering mitochondrial biology and the role of mitochondria in diseases ranging from neurodegenerative diseases,metabolic diseases and genetic muscular dystrophies toimmunopathologies and cancer. As the awareness of the essential role of mitochondria in pathology rose, a demand for new approaches to measure mitochondrial function resulted in the robust development of new forms of microscopy and spectroscopy that opened windows into previ...
Chinese Archery Studies
This book, the first research publication on China’s archery culture to appear in the English language, introduces the historic development, key concepts, and research methodologies for archery studies. Archery was the most important weapon of war in pre-modern China; at the same time, archery practice was intimately tied to Confucius’ cultural and pedagogic ideals. Chinese archery was divided into the domains of military archery (wushe) and ritual archery (lishe), and may be further distinguished into han (Chinese) and hu (barbarian) archery traditions. Bringing together the leading scholars in this field, including Ma Mingda, Stephen Selby, Ma Lianzhen, Peter Dekker, and others, this book presents the most comprehensive statement on archery studies to date. In particular, it provides an in-depth survey of archery development during the Qing period and offers a unique cultural perspective to understanding China’s last imperial dynasty—through the lens of Manchu archery.
Advanced Multimedia and Ubiquitous Engineering
This book comprises selected papers from the 14th International Conference on Multimedia and Ubiquitous Engineering (MUE 2020) and the 14th International Conference on Future Information Technology (Future Tech 2020). And this book presents the latest developments in the field of ubiquitous computing technologies. It also discusses the state of the art in the development of computational methods, involving theory, algorithms, numerical simulation, error and uncertainty analysis, and novel applications of new processing techniques in engineering, science, and other disciplines related to ubiquitous computing. This book is a great resource for students, researchers, and professors working in the field of ubiquitous computing.
New York Literature
Like deeply-rooted grapevines that refuse to give up producing fruit, a group of talented Korean-American writers refuse to surrender their passion for the written word. With that in mind, the group shares a collection of literary works that reflect on their unique journeys through life as they battled challenges and embraced joys. A diverse group of contributors who are in love with literacy and thrilled to make their debut in the English language transform their experiences as immigrants into heartfelt poems, essays, and stories that describe what it is like to travel across the world and begin anew in a country where nothing is familiar. In reflections that reveal how each faced culture shock, handled conflict between generations, learned acceptance, overcame despair, and in their own ways, created a harmonious world, the writers illuminate an unforgettable message that no matter where one is born, we all want the same things in life: love, peace, and happiness. New York Literature shares a collection of poems, essays, and stories from first-generation Korean immigrants with the hope of building a bridge between generations and promoting communication with the world.
