The Age of Scientific Wellness
Taking us to the cutting edge of the new frontier of medicine, a visionary biotechnologist and a pathbreaking researcher show how we can optimize our health in ways that were previously unimaginable. We are on the cusp of a paradigm shift in the delivery of health care as major diseases are being challenged in fresh and unexpected ways. Using predictive technologies, applied immunotherapy, and genomically informed disease prevention, scientists are working closely with patients to dramatically extend their "healthspan"--the number of healthy years before disease sets in. Leroy Hood, whose innovations made possible the sequencing of the human genome, and Nathan Price, whose work on systems bi...
Genetics
"Genetics : from genes to genomes represents a new approach to an undergraduate course in genetics. It reflects the way we, the authors, currently view the molecular basis of life. We integrate: formal genetics: the rules by which genes are transmitted. Molecular genetics: the structure of DNA and how it directs the structure of proteins. Digital analysis and genomics: recent technologies that allow a comprehensive analysis of the entire gene set and its expression in an organism. Human genetics: how genes contribute to health and diseases, including cancer. The unity of life-forms: the synthesis of information from many different organisms into coherent models. Molecular evolution: the molecular mechanisms by which biological systems, whole organisms, and populations have evolved and diverged."--Préface.

These fascinating real-leader stories persuasively teach that sustainable public victories come from the inner work of private victories." -Dr. STEPHEN R. COVEY, author of The Seven Habits of Highly Effective Pe...

Harold's End
Harold's end is a street hustler power ballad from San Francisco novelist JT Leroy. A young boy finds solace in a gift from an older, seemingly compassionate man. As with other Leroy stories, it goes from dark to incomprehensibly black. Internationally renowned Australiam artist Cherry Hood has created eight unique watercolour paintings based on the character descriptions in the story.
