Download or read book Biomolecular Kinetics written by Clive R. Bagshaw and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2017-10-04 with total page 883 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "a gem of a textbook which manages to produce a genuinely fresh, concise yet comprehensive guide" –Mark Leake, University of York "destined to become a standard reference.... Not just a ‘how to’ handbook but also an accessible primer in the essentials of kinetic theory and practice." –Michael Geeves, University of Kent "covers the entire spectrum of approaches, from the traditional steady state methods to a thorough account of transient kinetics and rapid reaction techniques, and then on to the new single molecule techniques" –Stephen Halford, University of Bristol This illustrated treatment explains the methods used for measuring how much a reaction gets speeded up, as well as the framework for solving problems such as ligand binding and macromolecular folding, using the step-by-step approach of numerical integration. It is a thoroughly modern text, reflecting the recent ability to observe reactions at the single-molecule level, as well as advances in microfluidics which have given rise to femtoscale studies. Kinetics is more important now than ever, and this book is a vibrant and approachable entry for anyone who wants to understand mechanism using transient or single molecule kinetics without getting bogged down in advanced mathematics. Clive R. Bagshaw is Emeritus Professor at the University of Leicester, U.K., and Research Associate at the University of California at Santa Cruz, U.S.A.

Download or read book Metabolism and Medicine written by Brian Fertig and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2022-01-25 with total page 369 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Chronic disease states of aging should be viewed through the prism of metabolism and biophysical processes at all levels of physiological organization present in the human body. This book describes the building blocks of understanding from a reasonable but not high-level technical language viewpoint, employing the perspective of a clinical physician. It brings together concepts from five specific branches of physics relevant to biology and medicine, namely, biophysics, classical electromagnetism, thermodynamics, systems biology and quantum mechanics. Key Features: Broad and up-to-date overview of the field of metabolism, especially connecting the spectrum of topics that range from modern physical underpinnings with cell biology to clinical practice. Provides a deeper basic science and interdisciplinary understanding of biological systems that broaden the perspectives and therapeutic problem solving. Introduces the concept of the Physiological Fitness Landscape, which is inspired by the physics of phase transitions This first volume in a two-volume set, primarily targets an audience of clinical and science students, biomedical researchers and physicians who would benefit from understanding each other’s language.
Download or read book Pathology for Surgeons in Training 3Ed written by Dugald Gardner and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2002-03-30 with total page 417 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Previous editions of this book have proved indispensable for trainee surgeons preparing for the MRCS and AFRCS examinations. This extensively revised new edition is presented in a compelling new style and in a larger format. Beginning with a 'route-map' showing 'how to use this book', the text offers concise accounts of the core topics in pathology required of surgeons in training. There is particular emphasis on tissue pathology but full account is taken of relevant aspects of microbiology, haematology, immunology and clinical chemistry. Tables of normal laboratory values are included. Each major disorder is examined from the point of view of Cause, Structure, and Behaviour. Genetics, molecular biology and imaging receive balanced attention as do transfusion, telepathology and audit. The use of computers is outlined and suggestions given on access to Internet sources for learning purposes. The needs of trainees in countries outside Europe have been considered carefully. Illustrations have been selected to provide a clear, pictorial account of complex points. The inclusion of biographies of surgical pioneers adds interest and enables candidates to put their knowledge into context. A special feature is a series of marginal 'signposts' in the form 'Now Read' that take candidates to interrelated topics quickly and easily. There is extensive cross-referencing and a comprehensive index.

Download or read book Disciplining Reproduction written by Adele E. Clarke and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 2022-03-25 with total page 440 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Reproductive issues from sex and contraception to abortion and cloning have been controversial for centuries, and scientists who attempted to turn the study of reproduction into a discipline faced an uphill struggle. Adele Clarke's engrossing story of the search for reproductive knowledge across the twentieth century is colorful and fraught with conflict. Modern scientific study of reproduction, human and animal, began in the United States in an overlapping triad of fields: biology, medicine, and agriculture. Clarke traces the complicated paths through which physiological approaches to reproduction led to endocrinological approaches, creating along the way new technoscientific products from contraceptives to hormone therapies to new modes of assisted conception—for both humans and animals. She focuses on the changing relations and often uneasy collaborations among scientists and the key social worlds most interested in their work—major philanthropists and a wide array of feminist and medical birth control and eugenics advocates—and recounts vividly how the reproductive sciences slowly acquired standing. By the 1960s, reproduction was disciplined, and the young and contested scientific enterprise proved remarkably successful at attracting private funding and support. But the controversies continue as women—the targeted consumers—create their own reproductive agendas around the world. Elucidating the deep cultural tensions that have permeated reproductive topics historically and in the present, Disciplining Reproduction gets to the heart of the twentieth century's drive to rationalize reproduction, human and nonhuman, in order to control life itself. This title is part of UC Press's Voices Revived program, which commemorates University of California Press's mission to seek out and cultivate the brightest minds and give them voice, reach, and impact. Drawing on a backlist dating to 1893, Voices Revived makes high-quality, peer-reviewed scholarship accessible once again using print-on-demand technology. This title was originally published in 1998.
