Book Description

This book provides a broad and rich outline of the epigenetic mechanisms involved in cancer progression and the generation of metastasis. It describes the tumor suppressor genes undergoing transcriptional silencing by CpG island promoter hypermethylation in the different tumor types of the human anatomy and their association with tumoral behaviour. It also provides a comprehensive insightful look at the molecular players involved in DNA methylation, histone modification and chromatin remodelling complexes causing epigenetic lesions linked to the metastasic phenotypes. Finally, it explains how epigenetic lesions associated with cancer spreading can be targeted using new and potent chemotherapy drugs. The book is a state-of-the-art reference to all scientific researchers and clinicians interested in the understanding of the biological processes leading to tumor dissemination and to those that are keen to translate this knowledge to a better management of cancer patients. Each contributor is a specialist in their epigenetic area and their joint effort has created a unique view of the DNA methylation, histone and chromatin changes that define cancer metastasis.

Overall a good book.......2007-02-18

As a first impression, the book covers a great deal of topics, though not in too greater detail. For me, as a person leaving outside the USA, a great part of the book is not relevent. The species covered are not found in our beaches. Overall, this is a great compainon and covers most if not all the aspects that a fly fisherman may encounter.

An Excellent Resource.......2001-12-04

It's about time some one wrote a book on the west coast surf fly fishing. Covers areas from the Canadian to the Mexican boarders. Well written and laid out. All the information one needs to fly fish in the surf. Good resource on flies, equiptment and the quarry. It's also fun to read. I highly reccomned it.

Saltwater flyfishing on the left coast.......2000-06-24

Life size saltwater flies in color on the inside covers. If you don't saltwater flyfish before reading this book you probably will after reading it, if just to have some of these flies in your tackle box. Hanley keeps it simple throughout-pictures abound. A good book to get you started: tackle suggestions; places to fish, and how to fish them; how to read tide tables. Now go out and fish the surf zone.

Good description of aviation safety program design and need.......1998-08-17

Richard Wood has taken his considerable expereince in aviation operations and safety evaluation to provide a solid description of the most important elements of an aviation safety program. Main points in the book are illustrated with examples and additional references provided. One could design and implement a good aviation safety program using this reference alone. Well written and to the point, Mr. Wood provides needed guidance in an area that is not well documented nor understood.

Book Description

This book addresses the role of cooperation, networks and institutions in the context of regional innovation systems. It emphasizes the importance of these factors in the emergence of local innovation systems, using detailed examples of clusters which have reached different stages of maturity.

The authors address the topic from an empirical, theoretical and political perspective, and highlight the local mechanisms which are involved in the development of innovation systems. They offer a comprehensive overview of different approaches in the field and present numerous case studies which stress the influence of networks and local institutions. Significantly, they also introduce several new approaches to regional innovation systems, including contributions which explicitly discuss the design and potential of policy measures to promote regional development. The policy recommendations are based on sound theorizing which, in turn, is based on extensive empirical research.

This book is a valuable addition to a complex and growing literature which offers new perspectives and insights on cooperation, networks and institutions, and their role in the development of local systems of innovation. The combination of empirical, theoretical and policy-oriented approaches will ensure this book is essential reading for academics and policymakers in the fields of regional economics, innovation research and economic geography.

Book Description

The Essence of Capitalism is a timely account of globalization, the consumer culture, and the historical roots of our contemporary dilemmas. By tracking the 130-year history of Coca-Cola (and a number of other large American or transnational corporations), this book details all that is best, worst and most powerful about global capitalism.

Using Coca-Cola's rise as a case study, here is the tale of how Coca-Cola employed marketing and business practices that enabled it to expand beyond its original market (that which a horse-drawn cart could cover in a day) to -today's massive corporate status. Through the use of the franchise, extreme quality control and powerful marketing, it shows how Coca-Cola-a company with virtually one product that nobody actually needs and that is, in its original sugar-laden form, plainly very bad for people-went from being a feel-good tonic in competition with more than a thousand other similar drinks to being the major market force for soft drinks.

The book covers topics such as the creation of the idea of a corporation having the status of a person, how the money market works in the flow of capital, the effect of marketing and advertising on consumer tastes and how free trade really becomes oligopoly. By presenting a frightening set of examples, McQueen even joins the debate over what constitutes human nature when he demonstrates how corporations are creating a second nature by altering our needs, whether through the saturation of food with sweeteners or through genetic manipulation.

Humphrey McQueen, an original and provocative thinker, features regularly as a commentator on Australian radio, and as a contributor to various newspapers and magazines. He is the author of more than a dozen books on subjects ranging through history, politics and the visual arts.

Excellent overview of the state of the world.......2002-06-27

Any book that tries to cover everything about the history of Capitalism is doomed to fail because of the extent of its history. This book however avoids that by containing itself to using Coca-Cola as its base to start from. This is not a book about the benefits and wonders of Capitalism. It is a bare bones, warts and all tale of how Coke was lucky in its marketing and business practices to enable The Company to expand beyond its original market (that which a horse drawn cart could cover in a day) to today's massive corporate juggernaut. Through the use of the franchise, extreme quality control and powerful marketing it show how the company went from being a feel good tonic in competition with over a thousand other similar drinks to being the major market force for soda pop. The book covers topics such as the creation of the idea of a corporation to having the status of person, how the money market works in the flow of capital, the effect of marketing and advertising on consumer tastes and how free trade really becomes oligopoly. A frightening set of examples are presented, enough to make the strongest advocate of free market forces to rethink their position. An excellent book which goes hand in hand with Naomi Klein's No Logo and Eric Schlosser's Fast Food Nation.
