The Auditory System in Sleep
ISBN: 9780123738905 / Angielski / Twarda / 200 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 20 dni roboczych. The Auditory System in Sleep presents for the first time a view of a sensory system working in a different state-that of the sleeping brain. The auditory system is always "open" receiving information from the environment and the body itself (conscious and unconscious data). Even during sleep the auditory information is processed, although in a different way. This book draws information from evoked potentials, fMRI, PET, SPECT, lesions, etc., together with electrophysiological online data in order to depict how the auditory system single unit activity, recorded during sleep, revealed...

Why do some plants open and close their flowers at the same time each day? Why do so many people suffer the misery of jet lag? In this fascinating book, Russell Foster and Leon Kreitzman explain the significance of the biological clock, showing how it has played an essential role in evolution and why it continues to play a vitally important role in all living organisms. The authors tell us that biological clocks are embedded in our genes and reset at sunrise and sunset each day to link astronomical time... Why can't teenagers get out of bed in the morning?

Photoreceptors and Calcium
ISBN: 9780306474156 / Angielski / Twarda / 625 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. 2 The role of Ca+ as an internal messenger in visual transduction of vertebrate and invertebrate organisms has been explored intensely in the recent past. Since the 2 early 1970s, calcium ions and cyclic GMP (whose levels are controlled by Ca+ in vertebrates) have been recognized as important second messengers. Particularly in 2 the last decade, however, the role of Ca+ in visual transduction has been re-evalu ated and a proliferation of research has documented a multiplicity of roles. 2 It is now evident that Ca+ modulates phototransduction by acting at several 2 sites through a host of...

Balance: In Search of the Lost Sense
ISBN: 9780316011358 / Angielski / Twarda / 296 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Although vital to our well-being and even to our success as a species, the physical sense of balance has never attained the same recognition as sight, hearing, touch, smell, or taste. Now, with an epidemic of debilitating falls sweeping America's aging population, the time is ripe for a lively and illuminating tour of the human body's most exquisitely intricate and least understood faculty.
BALANCE is the first book written for a general audience that examines the mysteries of the human balance system--the astonishingly complicated mechanisms that allow our bodies to counteract...

Cats' Paws and Catapults: Mechanical Worlds of Nature and People
ISBN: 9780393319903 / Angielski / Twarda / 384 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Nature and humans build their devices with the same earthly materials and use them in the same air and water, pulled by the same gravity. Why, then, do their designs diverge so sharply? Humans, for instance, love right angles, while nature's angles are rarely right and usually rounded. Our technology goes around on wheels and on rotating pulleys, gears, shafts, and cams yet in nature only the tiny propellers of bacteria spin as true wheels. Our hinges turn because hard parts slide around each other, whereas nature's hinges (a rabbit's ear, for example) more often swing by bending flexible...

Prime Mover : A Natural History of Muscle
ISBN: 9780393324631 / Angielski / Miękka / 384 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Our everyday activities turn on the performance of nature's main engine: we may breathe harder going uphill, but we put more strain on our muscles walking downhill. Those of us who are right-handed can tighten screws and jar lids more forcibly than we can loosen them. Here we're treated to the story of how form and performance make these things happen--how nature does her work Steven Vogel is a leader in the great new field of bioengineering, which is rapidly explaining the beauty and efficiency of nature. His talents as both scientist and writer shine in this masterful narrative of...

Morphology, Shape and Phylogeny
ISBN: 9780415240741 / Angielski / Twarda / 318 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 18 dni roboczych. Generally, biologists and mathematicians who study the shape and form of organisms have been largely working in isolation from those who work on evolutionary relationships through the analysis of common characteristics. Increasingly however, dialogue between the two communities is beginning to develop - but other than a handful of journal papers, there has been no formal, published discussion on this subject. This book summarizes the interdisciplinary work that has taken place to date and should stimulate additional research into these topics.

Pore-forming Peptides and Protein Toxins
ISBN: 9780415298520 / Angielski / Twarda / 360 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 18 dni roboczych. Pore-forming proteins and peptides play a central role in bacterial pathogenesis, the immune response, defense from venomous attack, and innate immunity. These proteins attack and eliminate other organisms by punching an aqueous channel through their membranes, which disrupts appropriate cell function. The discovery of this cellular interaction has led to an abundance of scientific, medical, and commercial applications with unlimited potential.

'In Silico' Simulation of Biological Processes
ISBN: 9780470844809 / Angielski / Twarda / 270 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 8-12 dni roboczych. Over recent decades vast amounts of biological data have been accumulated. However, it is becoming increasingly difficult to apply traditional theoretical methods to the formulation of coherent pictures of cell and organ function because it is no longer possible for a human theorist to integrate all of the available information. Instead, computer technologies must now be used to perform this integration. This book brings together contributions from many different fields to summarize the current status of computer-assisted modelling of biological processes.

Immunoinformatics : Bioinformatic Strategies for Better Understanding of Immune Function
ISBN: 9780470853566 / Angielski / Twarda / 272 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 8-12 dni roboczych. The astounding diversity of the immune system and the complexity of its regulatory pathways makes immunology a combinatorial science. Computational analysis has therefore become an essential element of immunology research and this has led to the creation of the emerging field of immunoinformatics. This book is the first to feature thorough coverage of this new field.
