Adaptive Mechanisms in the Ecology of Vision

John Lythgoe was one of the pioneers of the 'Ecology of Vision', a subject that he ably delineated in his classic and inspirational book published some 20 years ago [1]. At heart, the original book aimed generally to identify inter-relationships between vision, animal behaviour and the environment. John Lythgoe excelled at identifying the interesting 'questions' in the ecology of an animal that fitted the 'answers' presented by an analysis of the visual system. Over the last twenty years, however, since Lythgoe's landmark publication, much progress has been made and the field has broadened considerably. In particular, our understanding of the 'adaptive mechanisms' underlying the ecology of v...

Move Better, Eat Smarter, Live Happier

What can we really control throughout our lifetime that may have an impact on our health? The answer, to an extent, is: a lot. We can shape our environment to better deal with roadblocks. We can control how and how much we move. We can control what we choose to put into our mouths. We can choose the attitude and outlook we take with us each day. We can choose to let motivation elude us, or figure out new ways to regain it. We can choose who we spend most of our time with and the influence those people have on the decisions we make – with or without them around. Many people feel helpless when it comes to balancing these factors. It doesn’t have to be difficult for it to last. It just has to be done in small, manageable steps. Learn, apply, evaluate, and adjust. MOVE Better EAT Smarter LIVE Happier Joseph A. Meier

Metabolism at a Glance

Metabolism at a Glance is a complete review course ofmetabolism in health and disease and offers a unique approach tothe study of this difficult discipline. Metabolism is a complicated subject involving complex moleculesand interrelated pathways. These metabolic pathways are usuallytaught separately with the result that the student develops adetailed but compartmentalised approach to metabolism andfrequently fails to see the overall picture and its physiologicalsignificance. Using the at a Glance format, the book takes the student througha complete course in intermediary metabolism in an integratedmanner. The same chart is repeated throughout the book with theindividual pathway under study h...

Moon Magic

From the author of Moon Spells comes a beginner’s book about the moon’s energy and how you can harness that lunar power in your everyday life. From new moons and eclipses to blue moons and the super moon, there are ample opportunities for the moon to influence our emotions and thoughts. Many believe our emotional potency is heightened during a super moon, while a new moon can bring change and new perspectives. Knowing when and how to use that power is key. In Moon Magic, you’ll learn how the lunar phases influence our emotions and well-being differently and how to harness that power for healing, emotional strength, and physical and mental wellness. Third-generation intuitive Diane Ahlquist helps guide those new to the power of the moon through lunar recipes and simple exercises, such as intention setting and moon meditation to help you capitalize on the moon’s inherent power and channel the moon’s energy whenever you need it most.

Human Molecular Genetics

Human Molecular Genetics is an established and class-proven textbook for upper-level undergraduates and graduate students which provides an authoritative and integrated approach to the molecular aspects of human genetics. While maintaining the hallmark features of previous editions, the Fourth Edition has been completely updated. It includes new Key Concepts at the beginning of each chapter and annotated further reading at the conclusion of each chapter, to help readers navigate the wealth of information in this subject. The text has been restructured so genomic technologies are integrated throughout, and next generation sequencing is included. Genetic testing, screening, approaches to therapy, personalized medicine, and disease models have been brought together in one section. Coverage of cell biology including stem cells and cell therapy, studying gene function and structure, comparative genomics, model organisms, noncoding RNAs and their functions, and epigenetics have all been expanded.

Individuals Across the Sciences

Knowing what individuals are and how they can be identified is a crucial question for both philosophers and scientists. This volume explores how different sciences handle the issue of understanding individuality, and reflects back on how this scientific work relates to metaphysics itself.
