Cytokinesis in Animal Cells (Developmental and Cell Biology Series)

Cambridge University Press | ISBN: 0521401739 | 1996-10-28 | PDF | 400 pages | 19 Mb


This book traces the history of some of the major ideas in the field and gives an account of our current knowledge of animal cytokinesis. It contains descriptions of division in different kinds of cells and the proposed explanations of the mechanisms underlying the visible events. The author also describes and explains experiments devised to test cell division theories. The forces necessary for cytokinesis now appear to originate from the interaction of linear polymers and motor molecules that have roles in force production, motion and shape change that occur in other phases of the biology of the cell. The localization of the force-producing mechanism to a restricted linear part of the subsurface is caused by the mitotic apparatus, the same cytoskeletal structure that insures orderly mitosis.

Genome And Disease (Genome Dynamics) by Jean-nicolas Volff




Jean-nicolas Volff, "Genome And Disease (Genome Dynamics)"
S. Karger AG (Switzerland); 1 edition (March 28, 2006) | English | 3805580290 | 246 pages | PDF | 1.85 MB


Cancer and other genetic human diseases are caused by a variety of mutations, ranging from subtle sequence changes to larger genomic rearrangements and alterations in chromosome number (aneuploidy). With contributions by reputed experts, this book aims to update the knowledge on the multiple mechanisms of genomic instability leading to human disease. Emphasis is given to the different types of genomic sequences involved in disease-related genomic rearrangements as well as to the various exogenous factors increasing the frequency of mutations. Several chapters are dedicated to the dysfunction of important cellular mechanisms like DNA repair and chromosome segregation, which may cause genomic instability and result in tumorigenesis.Important 'caretaker' genes controlling the stability of our genome have been identified through their defect in genomic instability syndromes, which are also extensively reviewed in this volume. This book provides an important update not only for investigators in biology and medicine, but also for physicians and anyone interested in the molecular basis of human disease.

Viral Transport in Plants by Elisabeth Waigmann, Manfred Heinlein


Elisabeth Waigmann, Manfred Heinlein, "Viral Transport in Plants (Plant Cell Monographs)"
Springer; 1 edition (June 11, 2007) | English | 3540698426 | 188 pages | PDF | 2.08 MB

Intercellular communication in plants plays pivotal roles in coordination and control of development and defence responses and involves the trafficking of RNA and protein macromolecules through cytoplasmic cell wall channels termed plasmodesmata. Viruses pirate this existing macromolecular transport pathway to spread infection and, therefore, represent important tools to investigate the cellular mechanisms that govern intercellular communication. The book provides a state of the art overview of the intricate functional virus:host relationships that allow a virus or viroid to move cell-to-cell and systemically through the plant, as well as from plant to plant, and, thus, to spread infection. The book also illustrates the mechanisms by which viruses overcome plant defence responses, such as RNA silencing. Arabidopsis is introduced as a plant host eminently suitable for genetic approaches to identify novel players in plant:virus interactions.

Anita Blake: Vampire Hunter

c13986

My name is Anita Blake. Vampires call me The Executioner. What I call them isn’t repeatable. Most people think vampires are just ordinary folks with fangs. I know better. I’ve seen their victims. I carry the scars...


Anita Blake: Vampire Hunter is a series of er@tic fantasy novels by Laurell K. Hamilton, narrated in first person, vaguely hard-boiled detective style by the title character, Anita Blake. Anita lives in a fictional Saint Louis much like our own, save that, not only are things like vampires and shapeshifters real, but everyone knows that they’re real and they are considered citizens of America, much like normal humans. The novels follow Anita’s ongoing conflicts with the supernatural as she attempts to solve a variety of supernatural mysteries, come to grips with her own abilities, and navigate an increasingly complex series of romantic and political relationships

The Time Machine by H.G. Wells

400000000000000038974_s4 


The Time Machine is a novel by H. G. Wells, first published in 1895 and later directly adapted into at least two feature films of the same name, as well as two television versions, and a large number of comic book adaptations. It indirectly inspired many more works of fiction in all media. This 32,000 word novella is generally credited with the popularization of the concept of time travel using a vehicle that allows an operator to travel purposefully and selectively. The term "time machine", coined by Wells, is now universally used to refer to such a vehicle. Wells introduces an early example of the Dying Earth subgenre as well.

The Animated Man - A life of Walt Disney




Discription
Anyone who writes a biography of Walt Disney is obliged to explain what
he is up to, given that a dozen or more biographies of Disney have already
been published. It is not enough to say that most of those books are not very
good. The question is whether a new biography can avoid the pitfalls that
have doomed the earlier ones.
Most Disney biographies have portrayed either a man who fell short of
perfection only in a few venial ways (he smoked way too much and used a
great deal of profanity), or one who was personally odious (anti-Semitism
being the sin of choice) and the products of whose labors are a stain on American
culture.
I have found few signs of either Disney in my own research into his life,
which began in 1969 with my first trip to California and interviews with Ward
Kimball, one of his best animators, and Carl Stalling, the first composer for
his sound cartoons. Disney was, in my reckoning, a stunted but fascinating
artist, and a generally admirable but less interesting entrepreneur. The trick,
I think, is to wind those strands of his life together, along with a few strands

from his private life, in a way that yields something close to the whole man.

Product Description
Consider this handbook your education. Hunter 101. And don't go thinking you got off easy just because there's not a pop quiz at the end. This is the good stuff. The real deal. In here you'll find out all there is to know about being a Dark-Hunter.

Now for the disclaimer: This book is mutable. It goes with the wind. It changes more often than the mind of a sixteen-year-old Gemini with a closet full of clothes and a date in an hour. Don't be surprised if you open it up for the thirty-five thousandth time and find something old, something new, something borrowed or. . .well you get the point.

Curl up in a comfy chair with some millennium-old scotch and feast upon the informative banquet I have prepared for your enjoyment.
