Anatomy and Physiology Laboratory Manual and Study Guide |
|
This book will serve the needs of readers seeking careers in health-related professions, physical education, and home economics. It will also be of interest to any reader who seeks an understanding of the structure and function of human body systems. As a manual and study guide, readers will find coverage of basic microscopy; the skeletal, muscular, digestive, and other body systems, as well as detailed instructions for dissection of fetal pigs and several sheep organs. For instructors, students, and readers who need a lab manual and study guide to introductory anatomy and physiology.

Forensic DNA Typing |
|
The second edition of this highly successfull book includes the latest information on DNA typing systems, Y chromosome material and mitochondrial DMNA markers. New chapters cover statistical genetic analysis of DNA data, an emerging field of interest to DNA research. Several chapters on statistical analysis of short tandem repeat (STR) typing data have been contributed by Dr. George Carmody, a well-respected professor in forensic genetics. Specific examples make the the concepts of population genetics more understandable. - The only book available that specifically covers detailed information on mitochondrial DNA and the Y chromosome - Chapters cover the topic from introductory level right up to cutting edge research - High-profile cases are addressed throughout the book, near the sections dealing with the science or issues behind these cases.

Inquiry into Life |
|
Inquiry Into Life is written for the introductory-level student who would like to develop a working knowledge of biology. While the text covers the whole field of basic biology, it emphasizes the application of this knowledge to human concerns. Along with this approach, concepts and principles are stressed, rather than detailed, high-level scientific data and terminology. Each chapter presents the topic clearly, simply, and distinctly so that students can achieve a basic understanding of biology. Every new copy of Inquiry Into Life will be packaged with a free copy of 'Essential Study Partner CD-ROM .

Metapopulation Biology |
|
Habitat destruction has left many landscapes increasingly fragmented. These isolated populations, or metapopulations, are in a constant state of change--growing, shrinking, disappearing, and reappearing. This unique volume brings together an international team of ecologists, geneticists, and evolutionary biologists who provide a comprehensive review of metapopulations. This book will provide fundamental reading for anyone studying the spatial dynamics of populations.

Microbiology Perspectives -- A Color Atlas |
|
Presents a complete, easy-to-use, and highly illustrated introduction to basic and advanced laboratory procedures and applications in microbiology. The book provides functional and effective experiences that enable readers to work with, understand, and appreciate microbiology. Presents 66 instructional exercises with multiple parts that have been chosen, designed, and arranged to help readers observe and recognize fundamental similarities and differences among microorganisms. Provides state-of-the-art experiments that stress basic principles along with current applications, such as DNA testing and protein determinations that includes complete descriptions of fundamentals. Emphasizing a team approach through exercises constructed to develop interactions, it also includes procedure diagrams in both visual and written instructions. A valuable reference for every reader interested in basic biology.

Primer of Applied Regression & Analysis of Variance |
|
Applicable for all statistics courses or practical use, teaches how to understand more advanced multivariate statistical methods, as well as how to use available software packages to get correct results. Study problems and examples culled from biomedical research illustrate key points. New to this edition: broadened coverage of ANOVA (traditional analysis of variance), the addition of ANCOVA (analysis of Co-Variance); updated treatment of available statistics software; 2 new chapters (Analysis of Variance Extensions and Mixing Regression and ANOVA: ANCOVA).
