Download or read book Leucocyte Typing V written by Stuart F. Schlossman and published by Oxford University Press, USA. This book was released on 1995 with total page 924 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book describes the state of the art of monoclonal antibodies that react with molecules on the surface of human leucocytes, platelets, or enothelial cells, and will be a key source of information describing the present state of our knowledge of human leucocyte differentation antigens. The fifth International Workshop and Conference on Human Leucocyte Differentiation Antigens was held in Boston on November 3-7, 1993. Those present at the meeting represented the efforts of more than 500 laboratories worldwide who joined together over a two year period to analyze 1450 antibodies and characterize over 150 molecules. Blind panels for all monoclonal antibodies including every CD, every noncandidate for CD status and all monoclonals of undefined specificity were analyzed by flow cytometry. Other dedicated laboratories undertook serologic molecular, biochemical, histochemical characterization of the monoclonal antibodies and structures they defined. The results obtained in Boston are detailed in this two volume set. Special emphasis is given in the book to the description and characterization of 48 new CD clusters and subclusters and the redefinition of 14 previously defined established clusters.

Download or read book Languages Scripts and Chinese Texts in East Asia written by Peter Francis Kornicki and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2018 with total page 424 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Chinese Writing and the Rise of the Vernacular in East Asia is a wide-ranging study of vernacularization in East Asia--not only China, Japan, Korea, and Vietnam, but also societies that no longer exist, such as the Tangut and Khitan empires. Peter Kornicki takes the reader from the early centuries of the common era, when the Chinese script was the only form of writing and Chinese Buddhist, Confucian, and medical texts spread throughout East Asia, through the centuries when vernacular scripts evolved, right up to the end of the nineteenth century when nationalism created new roles for vernacular languages and vernacular scripts. Through an examination of oral approaches to Chinese texts, it shows how highly-valued Chinese texts came to be read through the prism of the vernaculars and ultimately to be translated. This long process has some parallels with vernacularization in Europe, but a crucial difference is that literary Chinese was, unlike Latin, not a spoken language. As a consequence, people who spoke different East Asian vernaculars had no means of communicating in speech, but they could communicate silently by means of written conversation in literary Chinese; a further consequence is that within each society Chinese texts assumed vernacular garb: in classes and lectures, Chinese texts were read and declaimed in the vernaculars. What happened in the nineteenth century and why are there still so many different scripts in East Asia? How and why were Chinese texts dethroned, and what replaced them? These are some of the questions addressed in Chinese Writing and the Rise of the Vernacular in East Asia.

Download or read book Delirious New York written by Rem Koolhaas and published by The Monacelli Press, LLC. This book was released on 2014-07-01 with total page 585 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since its original publication in 1978, Delirious New York has attained mythic status. Back in print in a newly designed edition, this influential cultural, architectural, and social history of New York is even more popular, selling out its first printing on publication. Rem Koolhaas's celebration and analysis of New York depicts the city as a metaphor for the incredible variety of human behavior. At the end of the nineteenth century, population, information, and technology explosions made Manhattan a laboratory for the invention and testing of a metropolitan lifestyle -- "the culture of congestion" -- and its architecture. "Manhattan," he writes, "is the 20th century's Rosetta Stone . . . occupied by architectural mutations (Central Park, the Skyscraper), utopian fragments (Rockefeller Center, the U.N. Building), and irrational phenomena (Radio City Music Hall)." Koolhaas interprets and reinterprets the dynamic relationship between architecture and culture in a number of telling episodes of New York's history, including the imposition of the Manhattan grid, the creation of Coney Island, and the development of the skyscraper. Delirious New York is also packed with intriguing and fun facts and illustrated with witty watercolors and quirky archival drawings, photographs, postcards, and maps. The spirit of this visionary investigation of Manhattan equals the energy of the city itself.
