Braydon I fought to play in the NHL. Now I may have blown my chance with a drunken rant that went viral about the female goalie who shared my NHL debut. I can’t say that I reacted badly after I found out she was the secret half-sister I never knew existed. To repair my reputation and prove I support women’s hockey, I’m pretend-dating a hockey player. So bizarre. Fortunately, she’s brilliant, as well as an Olympic champion. And did I mention sexy? When she gets devastating news, I support her, and things between us feel real. It’s hard to remember she’s only dating me for her job, because she refuses to be ‘just’ the girlfriend of a hockey player. Jayna I’m one of the top wo...
"CELLS, the most cutting-edge textbook in the field, is the ideal resource for advanced undergraduate and graduate students entering the world of cell biology, and is a useful tool for scientists who wish to learn more about topics outside their field. This important new text provides full coverage of the structure, organization, growth, regulation, movements, and interaction of cells, with an emphasis on eukaryotic cells. Where they are known, the molecular bases for human diseases are discussed in each chapter.Under the direction of Dr. Benjamin Lewin and three expert lead editors, each chapter was prepared by top scientists who specialize in the subject area. All chapters were carefully edited to maintain consistent use of terminology and to achieve a homogeneous level of detail and rigor."--Publisher's website.
This volume offers a much-needed compilation of essential reviews on diverse aspects of plant biology, written by eminent botanists. These reviews effectively cover a wide range of aspects of plant biology that have contemporary relevance. At the same time they integrate classical morphology with molecular biology, physiology with pattern formation, growth with genomics, development with morphogenesis, and classical crop-improvement techniques with modern breeding methodologies. Classical botany has been transformed into cutting-edge plant biology, thus providing the theoretical basis for plant biotechnology. It goes without saying that biotechnology has emerged as a powerful discipline of B...
'Business Ethics' introduces students to ethical issues and decision-making in a variety of contemporary contexts. The book addresses corporate social responsibility, stakeholder management and sustainability. It develops an awareness of the many ways in which ethical considerations can manifest in commercial domains, thereby helping prepare students for their professional careers.
Josh I’m not the brightest guy. I did well in hockey but not in class. So it’s not surprising that my mom and Katie’s parents convinced me to break up with her back in high school. I thought I was doing the right thing, but when I run into her five years later, she lets me know just how badly I messed up. Things are different now. I’m an established hockey player on the Toronto Blaze, not a draft hopeful, and I have my teammates to help me figure out how to win Katie back. I’ve learned how to fight to get what I want now. And that’s Katie. But when trade rumors start, I might be sidelined before I can convince her that this time, she’s my goal. Katie Josh broke my heart in high...
The research and development activities in energy conversion and storage are playing a significant role in our daily lives owing to the rising interest in clean energy technologies to alleviate the fossil-fuel crisis. Polymers are used in energy conversion and storage technology due to their low-cost, softness, ductility and flexibility compared to carbon and inorganic materials. Polymers in Energy Conversion and Storage provides in-depth literature on the applicability of polymers in energy conversion and storage, history and progress, fabrication techniques, and potential applications. Highly accomplished experts review current and potential applications including hydrogen production, sola...
He has home advantage... But she's got a strong defensive play.
Completely revised and updated to incorporate the latest data in the field, Lewin's CELLS, Second Edition is the ideal resource for advanced undergraduate and graduate students entering the world of cell biology. Redesigned to incorporate new learning tools and elements, this edition continues to provide readers with current coverage of the structure, organization, growth, regulation, movements, and interaction of cells, with an emphasis on eukaryotic cells. Under the direction of three expert lead editors, new chapters on metabolism and general molecular biology have been added by subject specialist. All chapters have been carefully edited to maintain consistent use of terminology and to achieve a homogenous level of detail and rigor. A new design incorporates many new pedagogical elements, including Concept & Reasoning Questions, Methods boxes, Clinical Applications boxes, and more.
Plant cell walls are complex, dynamic cellular structures essential for plant growth, development, physiology and adaptation. Plant Cell Walls provides an in depth and diverse view of the microanatomy, biosynthesis and molecular physiology of these cellular structures, both in the life of the plant and in their use for bioproducts and biofuels. Plant Cell Walls is a textbook for upper-level undergraduates and graduate students, as well as a professional-level reference book. Over 400 drawings, micrographs, and photographs provide visual insight into the latest research, as well as the uses of plant cell walls in everyday life, and their applications in biotechnology. Illustrated panels conci...
