Culture of Epithelial Cells by R. Ian Freshney, ISBN 0471401218
..."a wonderful compendium of current in vitro approaches that will be a useful resource to those just starting to work with an epithelial cell system as well as those that have been working with them for years and years."
— "Pharmaceutical Research"
This completely revised and expanded new edition provides detailed descriptions of fundamental and practical aspects relating to the in vitro cultivation of disparate types of epithelia. In recent years, the use of epithelial cell culture in cell biology and tissue engineering has increased dramatically. This revision reflects those advances by including new chapters on the culture of animal and human hepatocytes, kidney epithelium, and bladder epithelium. Each chapter provides an introductory review of the principles and advantages of the particular method, followed by detailed protocols, practical tips, alternate methods, and a useful list of materials and suppliers.
Diane Arbus: Family Albums by Anthony W. Lee, ISBN 0300101465
Diane Arbus (1923-1971) is renowned for her provocative and unsettling portraits of modern Americans. This book presents a significant body of previously unpublished pictures by Arbus and proposes a radically new way to understand her goals, strategies, and over-all work. Diane Arbus: Family Albums examines unknown contact sheets from several of Arbus's portrait sessions, including more than three hundred photographs she took of a New York family one weekend in 1969. Anthony W. Lee and John Pultz put to the test Arbus's claim that she was developing a "family album." They present other images Arbus shot for Esquire magazine (including pictures of the families of Ricky Nelson, Jayne Mansfield, and Ogden Reid) and discuss her interest in photographic groupings of both traditional and alternative families. Challenging common interpretations of Arbus, the authors reveal a photographer far more savvy with the camera, more aware of photography as an artistic and commercial practice, and more...

Tissue Engineering, Stem Cells and Gene Therapies by Y. MuratElcin, ISBN 0306477882
In recent years cell-based technologies have gained significantscientific attention, and have become a matter of intense publicdebate as well. Namely, (i) tissue engineering, the construction oftissues and whole organs using molecularly-designed resorbablebiomaterials to create new tissue de novo with or withouttransplanting cells; (ii) the potential use of human embryonic stemcells for transplantation and regenerative medicine (with similarpotential for adult-derived stem cells); (iii) and gene therapy, inrelation with cell transplantation, have taken their places as themost discussed biomedical issues of the day. New findings inbiomimetic materials, cell signalling pathways, extracellular matrixreceptors and ligands, growth factors, and the human genome projectare motivating the developments in these challenging research areas.This book includes manuscripts on tissue engineering, stem cells andgene therapies authored by world-renowned scientists of the field. Thefirst section of the volume...

Levels of Selection in Evolution by Laurent Keller, ISBN 0691007047
Ever since the groundbreaking work of George Williams, W. D. Hamilton, and Richard Dawkins, evolutionary biologists have recognized that natural selection generally does not operate for the good of the group, but rather for the good of lower-level units such as the individual, the cell, even the gene. One of the fundamental problems of biology is: what keeps competition between these various levels of natural selection from destroying the common interests to be gained from cooperation? In this volume, twelve prominent scientists explore this question, presenting a comprehensive survey of the current theoretical and empirical research in evolutionary biology.
Recent studies show that at many levels of biological organization, mechanisms have evolved to prevent potential conflict in natural selection. Editor Laurent Keller's aim in this book is to bring together leading researchers from all biological disciplines to outline these potential conflicts and discuss how they are resolved. A...
