Diwan of Hassan Ibn Thabit
ISBN: 9780906094303 / Angielski / Twarda / 1464 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Hassan ibn Thabit lived in Yathrib, the later Medina, and was of mature age when the Prophet Muhammad, leaving Mecca behind him, settled there. He was already an established poet and had found favour as a composer of eulogies on visits to the court of the Arab Princes of the Ghassanid dynasty. Although not an immediate convert, Hassan soon accepted Islam and became, if hardly Poet Laureate, the most conspicuous of those who, in spite of Muhammad's disapproval of poets in general, were able to use their talent for verse to serve the new religion and praise its Prophet. He lived on to a great...

Nucleic Acid Amplification Technologies: Application to Disease Diagnosis
ISBN: 9781461275435 / Angielski / Miękka / 286 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The polymerase chain reaction (PCR) has proved to be a powerful and versatile tool and has opened new avenues in molecular biol- ogy. Alternative nucleic acid amplification techniques, such as the ligase chain reaction (LCR), nucleic acid sequence-based amplifica- tion (NASBA), and transcription-mediated amplification (TMA), a variation of NASBA, are also now available. These techniques are all designed to amplify specific nucleic acid sequences in an expo- nential manner, thus providing a basis for extremely sensitive diag- nostic assays. However, despite the widespread and successful ap-...

Light as an Energy Source and Information Carrier in Plant Physiology
ISBN: 9781461380399 / Angielski / Miękka / 310 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. A NATO Advanced Study Institute on "Light as Energy Source and Information Carrier in Plant Photo physiology" was held at Volterra, Italy, from September 26 to October 6, 1994, in order to consider the fundamental role that light plays in plant growth and development. This book summarises the main lectures given at this meeting which concentrated on both photochemical energy conversion and signalling (photosensing) aspects. Light harvesting and conversion into chemical energy in photosynthesis occurs at the level of chlorophyll/carotenoid containing photosystems in plants. Pigments are non...

Bildungs- Und Erziehungskatastrophe?: Was Unsere Kinder Lernen Sollten
ISBN: 9783531140292 / Niemiecki / Miękka / 194 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Die Ergebnisse der PISA-Studie vermitteln den Eindruck, dass Deutschlands Schuler im internationalen Vergleich nicht wettbewerbsfahig sind. Bildungspolitiker haben daraus die Konsequenz gezogen, dass Schuler fruhzeitiger, haufiger und harter gepruft und getestet werden sollen. Der Band "Bildungs- und Erziehungskatastrophe" sucht nach anderen Antworten. Die Ergebnisse der Hirnforschung belegen eindrucksvoll, dass eine fruhzeitige Forderung von Kindern ihrem Lernpotenzial wie ihrem Weltverstandnis zugute kommt. Die Entwicklungspsychologie zeigt, wie wichtig die liebevolle Eltern-Kind-Bindung...

The Biochemistry of Alkaloids
ISBN: 9783642618321 / Angielski / Miękka / 228 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The alkaloids were of great importance to mankind for centuries, long before they were recognized . as a chemical class. The influence they have had on literature is hinted at by some of the quotations I have used as chapter headings. Their influence on folklore and on medicine has been even greater. The scientific study of alkaloids may be said to have begun with the isolation of morphine by Sertiirner in 1804. Since that time they have remained of great interest to chemists, and now in any month there appear dozens of publications dealing with the isolation of new alkaloids or the...

ISBN: 9783642642241 / Angielski / Miękka / 292 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Rodents are conspicuous and important components of the desert biome. Many general concepts in modern community and behavioral ecology use them as a main model.
This volume compiles and generalizes data on the spatial structure of desert rodent communities, taking into account both global (biogeographic) and local (ecological) patterns. It is based on studies of rodents in different deserts of the Northern Hemisphere (Karakum, Kyzylkum, Bet-Pak-Dala, Gobi, Thar, Chihuahua, Negev, and North Caspian deserts) as well as on a thorough analysis of the literature. Rodents are conspicuous and important components of the desert biome. Many general concepts in modern community and behavioral ecology use them as a m...

Homeostasis in Desert Reptiles
ISBN: 9783642643682 / Angielski / Miękka / 213 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Deserts, whether hot or cold, are considered to be one of the most difficult environments for living systems, lacking the essential free water which ac counts for approximately 60-70% of their body mass and more than 98% of their constituent atoms {Macfarlane 1978}. Amongst vertebrates, reptiles are usually thought of as the animals most adapted or suited to such environments because of their diurnal habit, based on a need for external heat, and their ability to survive far from obvious sources of water. This impression is rein forced when one examines the composition of vertebrate faunae...

Cytoplasmic Fate of Messenger RNA
ISBN: 9783642644207 / Angielski / Miękka / 224 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Among all cellular RNA species of the three main types, ribosomal RNA, transfer RNA or messenger RNA, be they from prokaryotic or eukaryotic organisms, the prokaryotic mRNA is unique in that it has no precursor and is synthesized in the same mature form as it is translated into proteins. In fact, ribosomes join the nascent mRNA chain and engage in protein synthesis long before its transcription is complete. Provisions are even made for slowing down the ribo somes at some sites to prevent them from catching up with the RNA-polymerase. Of course, such a situation is only possible in the...

ISBN: 9783642646942 / Angielski / Miękka / 569 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Life Science studies in space were initially driven by the need to explore how man could survive spaceflight conditions; the effects of being launched un der high accelerations, exposed to weightlessness and radiation for different periods of time, and returned to Earth in safety. In order to substantiate the detailed knowledge of potentially adverse effects, many model experiments were launched using organisms which ranged from bacteria, plants, inverte brates, rodents and primates through to man. Although no immediate life threatening effects were found, these experiments can be considered...
