These Days
ISBN: 9781477685211 / Perski / Miękka / 110 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The conception of literature as escape, but always as an escape across the horizon to a different world, a world that is anti-thetical to the human realm, yet filled with a nonhuman life, is at the heart of this Persian book of poetry. My path of flight is an open road, a long life-travel into the unknown, whose goal is merely the process of the journey. The open road is selfless yet not amorphous, purified both of merging and of self, and its mode of relation is that of sympathy, a "feeling with" that includes within it the sympathies of love and hate - in short, a general affectivity that...

The Regulation of Cellular Systems
ISBN: 9781461284925 / Angielski / Miękka / 372 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. There is no doubt that nowadays, biology benefits greatly from mathematics.

This applies, among others, to metabolic control analysis, where the number of articles on theoretical fundamentals and experimental applications has increased for about 15 years. Surprisingly, mono graphs and textbooks dealing with the...

Gene Quantification
ISBN: 9781461286820 / Angielski / Miękka / 375 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Geneticists and molecular biologists have been interested in quantifying genes and their products for many years and for various reasons (Bishop, 1974). Early molecular methods were based on molecular hybridization, and were devised shortly after Marmur and Doty (1961) first showed that denaturation of the double helix could be reversed - that the process of molecular reassociation was exquisitely sequence dependent. Gillespie and Spiegelman (1965) developed a way of using the method to titrate the number of copies of a probe within a target sequence in which the target sequence was fixed to...
