In Response to Mt. Chimborazo, Sgt. Taylor Diamond leads a team of local police responders into a mire of cover-ups, corruption and death. Evidence takes the team on a trail of discovery that doesn’t stop until it metaphorically reaches the farthest point from the center of the earth, the peaks of Mt. Chimborazo. The center of the earth, representing the heart of mankind and their beliefs, wants, needs and dreams couldn’t be any further from the egotistical world leaders that refrain from nothing to gain the power and wealth of the world and keep it. Their arrogant decisions, criminal enterprising and political corruption touch all. Diamond’s team are on a quest to solve the deaths of his comrades, trail the evidence and attempt to stop the corruption, while being pursued by unwitting federal agents and hired assassins.

Microarray Technology in Practice

By: Steve Russell,Lisa A. Meadows,Roslin R. Russell

Using chips composed of thousands of spots, each with the capability of holding DNA molecules corresponding to a given gene, DNA microarray technology has enabled researchers to measure simultaneously gene expression across the genome. As with other large-scale genomics approaches, microarray technologies are broadly applicable across disciplines of life and biomedical sciences, but remain daunting to many researchers. This guide is designed to demystify the technology and inform more biologists about this critically important experimental technique. - Cohesive overview of the technology and available platforms, followed by detailed discussion of experimental design and analysis of microarray experiments - Up-to-date description of normalization methods and current methods for sample amplification and labeling - Deep focus on oligonucleotide design, printing, labeling and hybridization, data acquisition, normalization, and meta-analysis - Additional uses of microarray technology such as ChIP (chromatin immunoprecipitation) with hybridization to DNA arrays, microarray-based comparative genomic hybridization (CGH), and cell and tissue arrays

The Academic Caesar

University Leadership is Hard

By: Steve Fuller

Aimed directly at those who aspire to be university leaders in these turbulent times, and written as an academic counterpart to Machiavelli′s The Prince, The Academic Caesar explores four themes that are central to the contemporary university: its Caesar-leaders, its economics, its disciplines, and whether academics have a future in the universities. Drawing on a wealth of experience writing about the social epistemology of higher education, Steve Fuller makes a witty, robust and provocative contribution to the ongoing debate about where the university has come from and where it is going. The Academic Caesar will prove a fascinating read for those seeking new insights into current crisis in higher education as well as researchers and academics interested in the sociology of leadership.

Kuhn Vs. Popper

The Struggle for the Soul of Science

By: Steve Fuller

Although Thomas Kuhn and Karl Popper debated the nature of science only once, the legacy of this encounter has dominated intellectual and public discussions on the topic ever since. Kuhn's relativistic vision of science as just another human activity, like art or philosophy, triumphed over Popper's more positivistic belief in revolutionary discoveries and the superiority of scientific provability. Steve Fuller argues that not only has Kuhn's dominance had an adverse impact on the field but both thinkers have been radically misinterpreted in the process.
