Tattoo for a Slave
ISBN: 9780156032032 / Angielski / Miękka / 2005 / 336 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. A "tattoo" is a bugle call, a summoning that lingers in the ear. Although Hortense Calisher's family eventually migrated north to New York City, the echoes of their days as a slave-owning Jewish family in the South still resonate with this acclaimed author, who uncovers a part of history never before so strongly and tenderly revealed.
Calisher traces her family's years in the South and their transformative move up north, beautifully evoking the mood and texture of the early twentieth century. Her Virginia-born father, a perfume manufacturer, was twenty-two years older than her German-born... A "tattoo" is a bugle call, a summoning that lingers in the ear.

Lifting the Impenetrable Veil: From Yellow Fever to Ebola Hemorrhagic Fever & SARS
ISBN: 9780615827735 / Angielski / Miękka / 2013 / 562 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. History books can be boring to read but Dr. Charles Calisher has written a history of the early days of virus research that is anything but boring. His book emphasizes viruses, organization, and people, the combination which has led us to today. Using yellow fever and the virus that causes it, yellow fever virus, as an example of a disease caused by a virus transmitted by insects, Calisher takes us through the days when knowledge of these diseases was in short supply, techniques were primitive, but researchers were brilliant, innovative, and hard-working. From Louis Pasteur and Robert Koch,...

Infectious Diseases from Nature: Mechanisms of Viral Emergence and Persistence
ISBN: 9783211243343 / Angielski / Miękka / 2005 / 216 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 20 dni roboczych. Significant zoonotic diseases have appeared with increasing frequency in recent years. At a symposium held in Galveston, Texas, in March 2004, many outstanding virologists and others presented papers under the broad theme of "emergence." The intent was to elucidate the diseases themselves, the mechanisms by which they have emerged, the publication perception and response to the diseases, and the possibility of prevention or prediction. The papers in this book summarize the talks of this meeting. Among the many timely papers are those by Nobel Prize winner Peter Doherty, influenza...

Emergence and Control of Zoonotic Viral Encephalitides
ISBN: 9783211204542 / Angielski / Miękka / 2004 / 246 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 20 dni roboczych. In this period of obvious natural emergence of viral and other diseases, it is unclear as to what diseases are emerging, why they are emerging, and what, if anything, can be done to prevent or diminish their impact. This book, a compendium of presentations made at an international meeting of experts, provides summaries of areas of concern and details as to how disease agents such as Nipah and Hendra viruses in Australasia and West Nile virus in the Americas might have suddenly appeared. Either by alterations in natural habitats and diversity or by chance, pathogens emerge from time to time....

Molecular Basis of Virus Evolution
ISBN: 9780521455336 / Angielski / Twarda / 1995 / 624 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Advances in molecular biology have led to huge increases in determining the phylogenetic history of viruses. This book is one of the first solely devoted to the origins and evolution of viruses, and of the ways in which they interact with their cellular hosts and vectors. Intitial chapters cover impacts of viruses and their control. Further chapters detail genetic variation of viruses and the molecular basis of interrelation at the population level and the molecular basis and evolution of this relationship. Seventeen chapters follow on genetic origins, sources of variation, population...
