Weak Links
How can our societies be stabilized in a crisis? Why can we enjoy and understand Shakespeare? Why are fruitflies uniform? How do omnivorous eating habits aid our survival? What makes the Mona Lisa’s smile beautiful? How do women keep our social structures intact? – Could there possibly be a single answer to all these questions? This book shows that the statement: "weak links stabilize complex systems" provides the key to understanding each of these intriguing puzzles, and many more besides. The author, a recipient of several distinguished science communication prizes, explains weak or low probability interactions, and uses them as connecting threads in a vast variety of networks from proteins to ecosystems. This unique book and the ideas it develops will have a significant impact on diverse, seemingly unrelated fields of study.
Rethinking Cancer
Leading scientists argue for a new paradigm for cancer research, proposing a complex systems view of cancer supported by empirical evidence. Current consensus in cancer research explains cancer as a disease caused by specific mutations in certain genes. After dramatic advances in genome sequencing, never before have we known so much about the individual cancer cell--and yet never before has it been so unclear what to do with this knowledge. In this volume, leading researchers argue for a new theory framework for understanding and treating cancer. The contributors propose a complex systems view of cancer, presenting conceptual building blocks for a new research paradigm supported by empirical...
Molecular Aspects of the Stress Response: Chaperones, Membranes and Networks
This book makes a novel synthesis of the molecular aspects of the stress response and long term adaptation processes with the system biology approach of biological networks. Authored by an exciting mixture of top experts and young rising stars, it provides a comprehensive summary of the field and identifies future trends.
Science Education
Tells why to engage in scientific education of talented students as early as possible to develop the critical minds or scientific method judgments. This book discusses the multitudes of initiatives all around the world; stating that most of them work in isolation, often struggling with lack of resources and stay unrecognized to the general public."

Gifted Education as a Lifelong Challenge
This book is dedicated to the scholar and academic teacher Franz Monks, who is considered internationally to be one of the most brilliant 'giftedness' researchers. The wide spectrum of his writings and activities is reflected in the number of renowned international scholars who contributed to this unique collection of essays on gifted education as a life-long challenge.
Microarray Technology and Cancer Gene Profiling
Given the revolutionary implications that the use of this technology might have in the clinical management of cancer patients, the principles of DNA array-based tumor gene profiling must be clearly understood for the data to be correctly interpreted and appreciated. This book, written by leading experts, discusses the technical features characterizing the powerful laboratory tool of microarray technology, and reviews applications in the field of oncology.
Mechanisms of Lymphocyte Activation and Immune Regulation XI
In recent years, major developments have increased understanding of various genetic and epigenetic regulatory processes that are critical for the generation of B cell repertoires. These include the role of chromatin regulation and nuclear organization in understating the IgH gene regulation. These proceedings highlight recent developments in lymphocyte development, Ig gene rearrangements and somatic hypermutation, chromatin structure modification, B lymphocyte signaling and fate, receptor editing, and autoimmunity.
