"Ein Bücherbus in Nicaragua" - Bericht über ein außergewöhnliches Solidaritätsprojekt in Nicaragua und eine außergewöhnliche Bibliothekarin aus Deutschland.
The study of life, in all its glory; animals and plants we see around us, the tiny organisms we cant see that affect us every day, and even the molecules which make up life.

La energía eléctrica a partir su aplicación comercial ha sido un factor determinante para la economía y el desarrollo social; que si bien inicialmente fue utilizada para los sistemas de alumbrado público, posteriormente a la vez que se convirtió en la fuerza motriz que necesitaba la industria y el comercio, también se constituyó como una herramienta necesaria para el comodidad de los hogares.
In this book, 71+10 New Science Activities, the author has taken up the simple facts and principles of Science, such as: Air Force, Pressure, Weight, Emulsification, Osmosis, Gravity and Motion, Rotation, Types of Energy, Vibrations, Good and Bad Conductors of Electricity, Experiments with Magnets, Light and Sound for children, and projected them in a very simple and lucid language for the readers-- particularly the school kids who can easily perform these activities at home or school , of course with the help and able guidance of their parents, elders or teachers.
The history of science is littered with mad, bad and delightfully dotty inventions, from the bicycle that relied for its momentum on the rider waggling his head back and forth continually to the Improved Pneumatic Advertising Hat - a bowler that hurled a lit-up billboard into the air at the touch of a button - or the suitcase that turned into a small boat for the nervous ferry passenger.
In this fascinating and easily digestible book, The One Shows resident scientist Marty Jopson takes us on a mouth-watering tour of the twenty-first century kitchen and the everyday food miracles that we all take for granted.
This vintage book contains a detailed treatise on making cider and wine, with details of experiments in cider making applicable to farm conditions and notes on the use of pure yeasts in wine making.
Almost daily, new technologies are being presented that move the field of human pluripotent stem cell research towards a future that may yield highly-effective, personalized medical treatments.
Animal Cell Biotechnology: Methods and Protocols, Third Edition constitutes a comprehensive manual of state-of-the-art and new techniques for setting up mammalian cell lines for production of biopharmaceuticals, and for optimizing critical parameters for cell culture from lab to final production.
Understanding the physical and genetic structure of cereal genomes and how defined coding and non-coding regions interact with the environment to determine a phenotype are key to the future of plant breeding and agriculture.
Before the therapeutic potential of cell replacement therapy or the development of therapeutic drugs for stimulating the body's own regenerative ability to repair cells damaged by disease and injury can be fully realized, control of stem cell fate, immuno-rejection, and limited cell sources must be overcome.
In view of the numerous failures of clinical trials aimed at improving stroke therapy, the role and potential benefit of experimentally modeling focal cerebral ischemia in rodents has been debated.
Fascinating biology occurs at epithelial interfaces, whether between organism and environment or within body compartments, and many diseases inflicting huge personal and societal burdens result from dysfunction of epithelial systems, e.
Although embryonic stem cells currently enjoy the public limelight and show great pr- ise for cell based medical therapies, it is the adult stem cells which are responsible for the body's natural ability to fght disease, heal and recover, or fail and succumb to various maladies.
As the number of sequenced genomes continues to increase, understanding the functions of newly discovered molecules will require greater efficiency and further study within the context of live cells.
A collection of new reviews and protocols from leading experts in cell cycle regulation, Cell Cycle Control: Mechanisms and Protocols, Second Edition presents a comprehensive guide to recent technical and theoretical advancements in the field.
Zebrafish (Danio rerio) play an integral role in biomedical research, enabling researchers to examine physiological mechanisms and pathways relevant to human pathogenesis and its therapy.
