This volume contains the lectures and seminars presented at the NATO Advanced Study Institute on "Physics of New Laser Sources", the twelfth course of the Europhysics School of Quantum Electronics, held under the supervision of the Quantum Electronics Division of the European Physical Society. The Institute was held at Centro "I Cappuccini" San Miniato, Tuscany, July 11-21, 1984. The Europhysics School of Quantum Electronics was started in 1970 with the aim of providing instruction for young researchers and advanced students already engaged in the area of quantum electronics or for those wishing to switch into this area after working previously in other areas. From the outset, the School has...
Advances in Cholesterol Research presents a range of topics which, for the most part, have not been reviewed in recent years in books published on cholesterol. The subject area can be divided into two main sections. The intracellular and extracellular dynamics of cholesterol. The intracellular dynamics of cholesterol includes the intracellular distributions of cholesterol, cellular functions of the sterol, cholesterol metabolism in steroidogenic tissues, the cholestryl ester cycle, relation between cholesterol and dolichol biosynthesis, and the role of cholesterol in tumor cell proliferation. The section on extracellular dynamics of cholesterol includes the biogenesis of high density lipoprotein subclasses, structure-function relation in lecithin: cholesterol acyltransferase, and the role of cholesterol in atherosclerosis and in membrane fusion.

In response to the increasing interest in developing photonic switching fabrics, this book gives an overview of the many technologies from a systems designer's perspective. Optically transparent devices, optical logic devices, and optical hardware are all discussed in detail and set into a systems context. Comprehensive, up-to-date, and profusely illustrated, the work will provide a foundation for the field, especially as broadband services are more fully developed.
