The theme of the reminisces, observations, and opinions, as sought to be poetically expressed in these works, include no intended universal underlying topic but rather result from the authors attempt to achieve a catharsis of the authors frustration to, not having undertaken previously, original art and reflect overwhelmingly the authors occasions of instant inspiration during, almost without exception, the wee hours of the night. The author touched upon, directly and indirectly, some of his lifes experiences, but also many of his philosophical beliefs, cultural recognitions, and ruminations as to matters of life, love, professional endeavor, and common everyday occurrences and affiliations. The author intends no single purpose by the content of this work and felt free to ruminate, hold forth, and put his two bits in. From the content of the work can be gleaned not only many of the authors beliefs and philosophies but his desire for all of us to live it well. Other than to hope for appreciation of the expressions in the substance of this work, the author aspires to nothing more than tolerant consideration of those expressions herein included.
The Golgi apparatus (GA) is typically comprised of a series of five to eight cup-shaped, membrane-covered sacs called cisternae that look something like a stack of deflated balloons. The GA is often considered the "distribution and shipping department" for the cell's chemical products. This book traces the first 100 years of GA discovery from the first published accounts from Pavia, Italy, in 1898 to the Centenary Celebration in Pavia, Italy, in 1998 to our most recent discoveries. It summarizes the past 50 years beginning with the modern era of GA discovery, leading up to the present era with almost exclusive focus on molecular biology.
The book provides invaluable information to scientists, engineers, and product managers involved with imaging CCDs, as well as those who need a comprehensive introduction to the subject."--Page 4 de la couverture
Another reference work for those tracing relatives or other individuals from the isle of Arran, who served during the Great War, and wanting information on their war service - especially those connected with the main town, Brodick. At the national registration in August 1915, it was computed that there were 1,000 males in Arran between the ages of fifteen and sixty-five and 500 of these served in the Forces. This is a pretty good contribution if you take into account those ineligible because of age or exempt for agricultural and other purposes and on medical grounds. This book begins with an account of the effect of the war on the island, especially preoccupation with the danger from U-boats threatening the communications and supply route with the Scottish mainland. The main part of the book consists of war service details of those who served, including nurses; some accounts are brief, others are much longer. There are separate headings for Nurses, Royal Navy and Merchant Navy, for regiments/corps, for Canadians and Australians and individuals are shown under the appropriate heading. At the end is list of names of other Arran men on active service and these, too. are grouped by regiment but showing only name, rank, where on the island they came from, decorations and identifying those who died - with date where known.
