To preserve tissue by freezing is an ancient concept going back pre- sumably to the practice of ice-age hunters.

Genetic constraints on adaptive evolution can be understood as those genetic aspects that prevent or reduce the potential for natural selection to result in the most direct ascent of the mean phenotype to an optimum.

The aging process involves changes in neurotransmission at different levels.

There is no doubt about the importance of hydration in many areas of every day life, technology, biology, medicine, science etc.

Molecular biology has provided a tool with which problems in cellular differentiation can be answered.

Crystalline surface layers (S-layers) represent an almost universal feature of archaebacterial cell envelopes and can be found in gram-positive and gram-negative eubacterial species from nearly all phylogenetic branches.

The idea of Professors Bolis and Gilles to gather together for a 3 days' meeting in the splendid environment of Crans-Montana in Switzerland a limited number of people around the subject of calcium and calcium bind- ing proteins seemed at first particularly attractive, and when they asked me to take charge of the scientific organization of the symposium, I accepted with enthusiasm.

This monograph has been written in the hope that it will prove of value to medical students and clinicians, to Honours undergradu- ates in appropriate branches of the natural sciences, and to repro- ductive biologists in general.
