Future Humans
"Evolutionary biologist Scott Solomon draws on the explosion of discoveries in recent years to examine the future evolution of our species. Combining knowledge of our past with current trends, Solomon offers convincing evidence that evolutionary forces still affect us today. But how will modernization--including longer lifespans, changing diets, global travel, and widespread use of medicine and contraceptives--affect our evolutionary future?" --publisher description.
History Within
History Within explores how the life sciences have contributed to public and popular history and to moral and political visions for a just society of the future. It shows how the sciences that deal with the evolutionary history of human groups and of humankind are powerful producers of origin narratives and experiences of kinship and belonging. Marianne Sommer looks at the collecting efforts of three key scientistsHenry Fairfield Osborn, Julian Huxley, and Luca-Luigi Cavalli-Sforzathat render the interactive creation of bio-historical knowledge possible in the first place and asks how their scientific data was translated into more broadly meaningful narratives, images, and exhibits. The bones, organisms, and molecules they studied acquire political value, she argues, in negotiations over issues of interpretation and how scientific results ought to be communicated to the public. History Within is an essential history of biology in the twentieth and twenty-first centuries."
A Willcox Family History, 1689-1981
Thomas Willcox (1689-1779) immigrated from England to Concord, Pennsylvania, and married Elizabeth Cole (Kohl) in 1727. Descendants moved southward and then to the midwest.
Teaching Architecture(s) in the Post-Covid Era
In the post-COVID era, understanding the profound impact of digital technologies on design pedagogy is crucial. This book delves into experimental design education, showcasing projects utilising technology to transform creative and analytical processes. Emphasising the potential for digital-era technologies to create novel educational opportunities, the book addresses recent global events and their role in minimising educational disruptions in the evolving hybrid educational landscape. Each chapter offers case studies exploring digital technology's influence across architectural education, spanning interior design, urban planning, parametric digital design, architectural conservation, and de...
Flavonoids and Other Polyphenols
The critically acclaimed laboratory standard for more than forty years, Methods in Enzymology is one of the most highly respected publications in the field of biochemistry. Since 1955, each volume has been eagerly awaited, frequently consulted, and praised by researchers and reviewers alike. Now with more than 300 volumes (all of them still in print), the series contains much material still relevant today-truly an essential publication for researchers in all fields of life sciences.This volume presents an extensive collection of new methodologies to aid progress in solving unanswered questions concerning the bioavailability and metabolism of flavonoids and polyphenols, their biochemical and molecular biological effects on cell regulation, and their effects on health. Major topics in this volume include sources, characterization, analytical methods, bioavailability, antioxidant action, and biological activity.

Wheat Gluten
Annotation Some 120 papers continue the centuries-long research into gluten proteins, that component of wheat that confers unique visco-elastic properties to doughs and so allows the grain to be made into bread, pasta, noodles, and other human food. They cover genetics and quality correlations; biotechnology; analyzing, purifying, and characterizing gluten proteins; disulfide bonds and redox reactions; improvers and enzymic modification; quality testing; non-food uses; viscoelastisity, rheology, and mixing; gluten protein synthesis during grain development and effects of nutrition and environment; and non-gluten components. Distributed in the US by Springer-Verlag. Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com).
