	BY J.JULIAN BLOW (EDITOR) Eukaryotic DNA Replication Oxford, IRL Press. 1996. (ISBN: 0199635862) Hard Cover, 8vo - over 7" - 9" tall. A cell's ability to control replication of its DNA is fundamental to its normal development or transformation into a cancerous state. DNA replication is also a crucial step in the cell cycle, and recent improvements in our understanding of cell cycle control have promoted a fresh surge of interest in the subject. In this volume, the complexities of eukaryotic DNA replication are reviewed by leaders in this rapidly advancing field. The book begins with reviews of the molecular and genetic components of the replication machinery, and builds into a picture of how the replication process is regulated within the cell division cycle. Topics include the initiation of replication, origin recognition, the enzymology of the replication fork, and how replication is coordinated with other cell cycle events. Although there are undoubtedly many new discoveries to come, this book should form a basis on which researchers in molecular biology, cellular development, and other subject areas can build a dynamic understanding.

	CADY, M. P.; TRAPP, C. A. A MathCAD Primer for Physical Chemistry Oxford, Oxford University Press. 1999. (ISBN: 0198503598) Soft Cover, 8vo - over 7" - 9" tall. "Microprojects with Mathcad" teaches methodology of physical chemistry problem solving using Mathcad 7 by MathSoft. It is designed to be used as an aid in the teaching of physical chemistry and as a reference for learning both basic and sophisticated computer-based methods of analysing physical chemistry problems. Detailed descriptions of the Mathcad environment and techniques are presented, with illustrations, from the very beginning stages of the study of physical chemistry through the more difficult ones. "Microprojects with Mathcad" can be used as a supplement in university courses that use many of the currently available physical chemistry lecture and laboratory texts, especially the popular "Physical Chemistry" by Peter Atkins. The initial chapters teach problem solving techniques with examples that illustrate the concepts of physical chemistry starting with the properties of gases and continuing through chemical thermodynamics. The pedagogy is designed to "trail" or "follow behind" study of the main text. Thus the concepts and traditional methods of problem solving can be taught first, followed by a study of MicroProjects, which will provide not only review, but add computer-based techniques of analysis to the solution of modern and realistic problems which would have been too difficult or time consuming for the student to solve otherwise. The book is accompanied by a free CD-ROM with the Mathcad tutorial and approximately 100 active Mathcad documents. New/New - Minor Shelf Wear.

	BY SHAMSHAD COCKCROFT (EDITOR) Biology of Phosphoinositides Oxford, Oxford University Press. 2000. (ISBN: 0199637644) Soft Cover, 8vo - over 7" - 9" tall. Phosphoinostides have been known to play a role in cell signalling since the 1950s and since then, lipid signals have been discovered to play a role in many different cellular functions. Biology of Phosphoinostides is not a historical account, but a review of the current opinions of lipid signalling research with the emphasis on the integration of the use of lipid signals in signal transduction and membrane trafficking. These two areas have traditionally been seen as separate but now anyone ignoring one area at the expense of the other does so at their peril. The regulation of phospholipase C (and its isozymes), phospholipase D, the phosphinositide-3-kinases, chloride channel conductance by inositol (3,4,5,6) tetraphosphate, and of cytoskeletal protein activity by inositol lipids are all covered in depth. There is specific discussion of the PH and FYVE lipid binding domains that allow lipids to control the movement, location, and activation- state of membrane proteins. The central issue of the control of synthesis, translocation, and degradation of phosphoinositides is also given due coverage. For too long, lipids have been seen as a backwater of biology and an uninteresting topic to study. However their central role in cell function is now properly recognized and the Biology of Phosphoinositides will serve as an enjoyable and intriguing introduction to what these slippery molecules can achieve.

The majority of patients in need of organ transplants do not survive long enough for a suitable human organ to become available. Xenotransplantation, the transplant of animal organs into humans, has attracted substantial media attention. If, as appears likely, it proves possible to "humanize" animal organs and evade the problems of rejection, in the coming few years there will be a tremendous increase in this procedure, mostly using organs from animals specifically for their harvestable organs. This book will lay out the potential and promise of the technique, the history of organ transplantation, the technical problems and breakthroughs in overcoming immune rejection, and typing and humanizing donor organs for transplantation. The ethical question of growing animals specifically for organ harvest, and the substantial public health concern from the certainty that animal viruses will pass into humans with the donated organs, will be fully discussed. The authors are among the leaders in the field of Xenotransplantation. Good/Fine - Creased Cover.

	BY J.JULIAN BLOW (EDITOR) Eukaryotic DNA Replication Oxford, IRL Press. 1996. (ISBN: 0199635862) Hard Cover, 8vo - over 7" - 9" tall. A cell's ability to control replication of its DNA is fundamental to its normal development or transformation into a cancerous state. DNA replication is also a crucial step in the cell cycle, and recent improvements in our understanding of cell cycle control have promoted a fresh surge of interest in the subject. In this volume, the complexities of eukaryotic DNA replication are reviewed by leaders in this rapidly advancing field. The book begins with reviews of the molecular and genetic components of the replication machinery, and builds into a picture of how the replication process is regulated within the cell division cycle. Topics include the initiation of replication, origin recognition, the enzymology of the replication fork, and how replication is coordinated with other cell cycle events. Although there are undoubtedly many new discoveries to come, this book should form a basis on which researchers in molecular biology, cellular development, and other subject areas can build a dynamic understanding.

	CADY, M. P.; TRAPP, C. A. A MathCAD Primer for Physical Chemistry Oxford, Oxford University Press. 1999. (ISBN: 0198503598) Soft Cover, 8vo - over 7" - 9" tall. "Microprojects with Mathcad" teaches methodology of physical chemistry problem solving using Mathcad 7 by MathSoft. It is designed to be used as an aid in the teaching of physical chemistry and as a reference for learning both basic and sophisticated computer-based methods of analysing physical chemistry problems. Detailed descriptions of the Mathcad environment and techniques are presented, with illustrations, from the very beginning stages of the study of physical chemistry through the more difficult ones. "Microprojects with Mathcad" can be used as a supplement in university courses that use many of the currently available physical chemistry lecture and laboratory texts, especially the popular "Physical Chemistry" by Peter Atkins. The initial chapters teach problem solving techniques with examples that illustrate the concepts of physical chemistry starting with the properties of gases and continuing through chemical thermodynamics. The pedagogy is designed to "trail" or "follow behind" study of the main text. Thus the concepts and traditional methods of problem solving can be taught first, followed by a study of MicroProjects, which will provide not only review, but add computer-based techniques of analysis to the solution of modern and realistic problems which would have been too difficult or time consuming for the student to solve otherwise. The book is accompanied by a free CD-ROM with the Mathcad tutorial and approximately 100 active Mathcad documents. New/New - Minor Shelf Wear.

	BY SHAMSHAD COCKCROFT (EDITOR) Biology of Phosphoinositides Oxford, Oxford University Press. 2000. (ISBN: 0199637644) Soft Cover, 8vo - over 7" - 9" tall. Phosphoinostides have been known to play a role in cell signalling since the 1950s and since then, lipid signals have been discovered to play a role in many different cellular functions. Biology of Phosphoinostides is not a historical account, but a review of the current opinions of lipid signalling research with the emphasis on the integration of the use of lipid signals in signal transduction and membrane trafficking. These two areas have traditionally been seen as separate but now anyone ignoring one area at the expense of the other does so at their peril. The regulation of phospholipase C (and its isozymes), phospholipase D, the phosphinositide-3-kinases, chloride channel conductance by inositol (3,4,5,6) tetraphosphate, and of cytoskeletal protein activity by inositol lipids are all covered in depth. There is specific discussion of the PH and FYVE lipid binding domains that allow lipids to control the movement, location, and activation- state of membrane proteins. The central issue of the control of synthesis, translocation, and degradation of phosphoinositides is also given due coverage. For too long, lipids have been seen as a backwater of biology and an uninteresting topic to study. However their central role in cell function is now properly recognized and the Biology of Phosphoinositides will serve as an enjoyable and intriguing introduction to what these slippery molecules can achieve.

The majority of patients in need of organ transplants do not survive long enough for a suitable human organ to become available. Xenotransplantation, the transplant of animal organs into humans, has attracted substantial media attention. If, as appears likely, it proves possible to "humanize" animal organs and evade the problems of rejection, in the coming few years there will be a tremendous increase in this procedure, mostly using organs from animals specifically for their harvestable organs. This book will lay out the potential and promise of the technique, the history of organ transplantation, the technical problems and breakthroughs in overcoming immune rejection, and typing and humanizing donor organs for transplantation. The ethical question of growing animals specifically for organ harvest, and the substantial public health concern from the certainty that animal viruses will pass into humans with the donated organs, will be fully discussed. The authors are among the leaders in the field of Xenotransplantation. Good/Fine - Creased Cover.
