Introductory physics textbook designed for students in the life sciences. Covers mechanics, heat, sound, electricity, magnetism, optics, atomic physics, and applications of physics in biology and medicine.
Discusses computational methods and numerical modelling techniques applied to fluids, polymers, and solid materials. Includes simulations, finite element methods, and engineering applications.
This book presents a conceptual journey from the classical Pythagorean theorem through vector geometry to key ideas of Einstein’s special theory of relativity. Friedrichs emphasizes geometric reasoning to connect algebra, mechanics, and relativistic physics, making advanced physical ideas accessible through carefully developed mathematical foundations. The work bridges ancient geometry and mo…
This monograph provides a comprehensive and systematic examination of the chemical and biochemical properties of sulfhydryl (–SH) groups in amino acids, peptides, and proteins. It focuses primarily on cysteine and related thiol-containing compounds, discussing their reactivity, oxidation–reduction behavior, nucleophilic properties, and role in protein structure and function. The book critic…
This volume examines the biology and mechanisms of antisense oligodeoxynucleotides, antisense RNA, and ribozymes, with emphasis on their role in regulating gene expression. It explores emerging therapeutic applications, particularly in the inhibition of viral replication and oncogene expression. Contributions from leading researchers address pharmaceutical development strategies, molecular mech…
di Fiore’s Atlas of Histology with Functional Correlations (7th edition) is a classic medical atlas that integrates microscopic structure with biological function. The book presents richly colored schematic illustrations alongside photomicrographs to clearly demonstrate the organization of cells, tissues, and organs. This edition was completely revised and expanded by Victor P. Eroschenko an…
