Britain’s Game Fishes

Celebration and Conservation of Salmonids

By: Mark Everard,Paul Knight

Game fishes, particularly those of the salmon family, are critical indicators of the health of those ecosystems upon which we now know we are dependent. As the authors of this important environmental book argue, “Our game fishes [then] serve as more than merely an indicator of healthy waters. Instead, they can be regarded as iconic of the ecosystems in which they occur.” Moreover, “the quality requirements of different types of fish population have formed the backbone of a great deal of water management in the UK, Europe and the USA over several decades.” With sections on how and why Britain’s game fishes are under pressure from changes in land use, agriculture, housing needs, etc. – and their concomitant pollution effects – this book assesses how our knowledge of these game fishes reflect the changing values we place on our surrounding wildlife.

Cancer Immunotherapy

Chapter 14. Monoclonal Antibodies for Cancer Therapy and Prevention: Paradigm Studies in Targeting the neu/ERBB2/HER2 Oncoprotein

By: Hongtao Zhang,Arabinda Samanta,Yasuhiro Nagai,Hiromichi Tsuchiya,Takuya Ohtani,Zheng Cai,Zhiqiang Zhu,Jing Liu,Mark I. Greene

The foundation for targeted therapy of cancers driven by members of the ErbB oncoprotein family was established initially by the demonstration that ectodomain binding monoclonal antibodies (mAb) could disable the protein kinase encoded by the HER2/neu oncogene. Homomeric and heteromeric erbB kinases play critical roles in the development of cancer and in the spread of early lesions. In particular, antibodies targeting the p185erbB2/neu receptor provide major clinical benefits in the treatment of breast cancer and also stomach cancer. As suggested by our study with oncogenic neu transgenic mice, anti-p185erbB2/neu antibodies are also effective in preventing the tissue hyperplasia that precedes tumorigenesis, tumor growth and the dissemination of ErbB2/neu kinase-positive cells into other tissues. As a therapeutic principle, “reversion of phenotype” for established tumors and “prevention” of tumorigenesis and spread can explain the basis for the benefits invoked by therapeutic and adjuvant therapies for breast cancer patients after cancers are surgically removed. These emerging principles being enlightened by ongoing studies of monoclonal antibody therapy will continue to provide guidance for the development of new targeted therapies for resistant tumors that arise after treatment.

The Chemistry of Metal CVD

By: Toivo T. Kodas,Mark J. Hampden-Smith

High purity, thin metal coatings have a variety of important commercial applications, for example, in the microelectronics industry, as catalysts, as protective and decorative coatings as well as in gas-diffusion barriers. This book offers detailed, up- to-date coverage of the chemistry behind the vapor deposition of different metals from organometallic precursors. In nine chapters, the CVD of metals including aluminum, tungsten, gold, silver, platinum, palladium, nickel, as well as copper from copper(I) and copper(II) compounds is covered. The synthesis and properties of the precursors, the growth process, morphology, quality and adhesion of the resulting films as well as laser- assisted, ion- assisted and plasma-assisted methods are discussed. Present applications and prospects for future developments are summarized. With ca. 1000 references and a glossary, this book is a unique source of in-depth information. It is indispensable for chemists, physicists, engineers and materials scientists working with metal- coating processes and technologies. From Reviews: 'I highly recommend this book to anyone interested in learning more about the chemistry of metal CVD.' J. Am Chem. Soc.

George W. Hamilton, USMC

America's Greatest World War I Hero

By: Mark Mortensen

In its list of the "Top 10 Badass Marines," Leatherneck magazine declared that Major George W. Hamilton "never asked anyone to do anything he wasn't prepared to do himself...and do better." Indeed, the author of A History of the United States Marine Corps once called Hamilton "the most outstanding Marine Corps hero in World War I." A leader of the first major American assault on June 6, 1918, and the last ranking officer in the American Expeditionary Forces to learn that the war was over, Hamilton remained in the thick of the fighting from start to finish. Although he earned the Distinguished Service Cross, the Navy Cross, the Croix de Guerre, and two Medal of Honor recommendations for his service, Hamilton's fame stalled when he died prematurely in 1922. With this first complete biography, Hamilton takes his rightful place among the first rank of American military heroes.
