Nanometric Functions of Bioenergy
Could there be an intimate physical relationship between the molecular structure of DNA/RNA with its protein machinery, and the nanometric structure of the energies deployed by biological systems? What are these energies? Do they always bear mass? Are they always affected to mass? And what is the nature of that intimate physical relationship? What defines a biological system? Do disorder and entropy always increase in parallel? Does negentropy have a physical sense? Is there an energetic specificity to the living, or is biological specificity merely and solely molecular? Are there submolecular specificities to the living? These insistent questions are fundamental problems of molecular and su...
Molecular Basis of Chronic Myeloproliferative Disorders
Since the first description of Philadelphia chromosome-negative chronic myeloproliferative disorders more than 100 years ago, the diagnosis and therapy of these conditions have been based primarily on clinical experience and judgement. Until recently very little was known about the molecular basis of these diseases. In order to spark research in this area basic scientists and clinicians from various parts of the world have contributed to this volume, the first of its kind to put together the current knowledge. The book deals with the new WHO classification of these disorders, novel aspects of diagnostic pathology, the search for disease-relevant genes utilizing molecular biology and proteomic techniques, the description of the roles of PVR-1 and VHL genes for polycythemias and the discovery of the gene mutation responsible for the idiopathic hypereosinophilic syndrome. A chapter on anagrelide, an important novel drug for the treatment of primary thrombocythemia, is included.
On Our Own Terms
The book "On Our Own Terms - Stories of Women Entrepreneurs around the World" brings together stories from 24 countries. The book is the result of The Girls on the Road project spanning 99,534,000 kilometers, and more than 300 interviews on 5 continents with women entrepreneurs and experts. Women still face more obstacles to become entrepreneurs no matter the country, culture or environment. Over the course of 15 months, the duo also navigated the sociocultural aspects of the countries visited and had an experience that went beyond the interviews. "We had the opportunity to get to know a little of the role and perception of women through them. It was an excellent exercise to break our own paradigms and prejudices, "said the authors.

Perceptions of Knowledge Visualization: Explaining Concepts through Meaningful Images
Multisensory perception is emerging as an important factor in shaping current lifestyles. Therefore, computer scientists, engineers, and technology experts are acknowledging the comparative power existing beyond visual explanations. Perceptions of Knowledge Visualization: Explaining Concepts through Meaningful Images discusses issues related to visualization of scientific concepts, picturing processes and products, as well as the role of computing in the advancement of visual literacy skills. By connecting theory with practice, this book gives researchers, computer scientists, and academics an active experience which enhances the perception and the role of computer graphics.
Wilhelm Reich, Biologist
Refuting allegations of "pseudoscience" that have long dogged Reich's research, the author argues that Reich's lab experiments in the mid-1930s represented the cutting edge of light microscopy and time-lapse micro-cinematography and deserve to be taken seriously as legitimate scientific contributions.--Publisher's description.
