Science & MathematicsApril 2022Nematodes as Model Organisms
by Itamar Glazer, David I Shapiro-llan, Paul W. Sternberg
Nematodes, which are small multi cellular organisms have been used as biological models since the 1960's. The nematode worm Caenorhabditis elegans is a free-living nematode, about 1mm in length, that lives in temperate soil environments. It is made up of about 1000 cells, and has a short life cycle of only 2 weeks. It was the first multicellular organism to have its whole genome sequenced. The book includes chapters that summarize the importance of nematodes as model organisms in the fields of genetics, developmental biology, neurobiology, pharmacology, nutrition, ecology and parasitology. Of interest to a broad audience across a wide spectrum of disciplines, the book is useful for biologists working on comparative studies to investigate biological processes across organisms; medical scientists and pharmacologist for exploration of drugs and medicine (including the use of genome editing to eliminate diseases); ecologists considering nematodes as indicators for environment changes; and parasitologists for host-parasite interactions. Many other researchers can use this book as a benchmark for the broad implications of nematology research on other aspects of science.

Molecular biologyMarch 2009Insect Pathogens
Molecular Approaches and Techniques
by Edited by S. Patricia Stock, Itamar Glazer, Noel Boemare, John Vandenberg
Investigation of insect pathogens is vital to the understanding of biocontrol and insect management within an ecosystem. Faster and more accurate methods of identification and diagnosis have become possible with the implementation of molecular techniques. Advances in genomics and genetic engineering make this manual the most up to date handbook on insect pathogens, with the latest information on methods used to unravel the genomes of pathogens. The book is divided into four sections covering: Identification and Diagnostics, Evolutionary Relationships and Population Genetics, Genomics, and Genetic Engineering. It is essential reading for those studying and researching at the forefront of molecular science and biological management.

El ascensor de Einstein
by Felix Dothan
El ascensor de Einstein: científicos que cambiaron el mundo por Felix Dothan El autor escribe sobre la vida y trabajo de científicos prominentes que consiguieron descifrar los secretos de la naturaleza, e inventores que cambiaron el curso de la humanidad. Estos científicos eran personas reales, de carne y hueso, diferentes del uno al otro. Entre ellos se encontraban personajes próximos a la santidad, tales como Albert Einstein y Lise Meitner, junto a ellos personas casi de otro mundo, como Srinivasa Ramanujan. Hubo científicos eminentes que carecieron de integridad intelectual, tales como Leibniz, o aquellos que despertaron sentimientos tanto de admiración como revulsión, como por ejemplo, Fritz Haber. Y muchos más: Arquímedes, uno de los fundadores de las matemáticas y un inventor de armas avanzadas; Benjamin Franklin: empresario, pionero de la teoría de la electricidad, diplomático, autor, y estadista; Davy : un químico agudo y brillante; y así sigue la lista, hasta el astrofísico renombrado Chandrasekhar, uno de los científicos quien, en las últimas décadas, descubrió hechos sorprendentes sobre el universo. Junto a las biografías de los científicos, el libro contiene cuentos cortos sobre temas relacionados con la ciencia – cuentos interesantes y divertidos, pero instructivos a la vez. Felix Dothan es Profesor Emeritus de física de la universidad hebrea de Jerusalén. Fue un científico visitante del instituto europeo para investigación nuclear (CERN) en Ginebra, Y un profesor visitante de la Universidad de California y Yale. Los derechos en español para España y Sudamerica están todavía disponibles!

Family & home stories (Children's/YA)October 2017Mexique
El nombre del barco
by María José Ferrada, Ana Penyas
On May of 1937, during the Spanish Civil War, 456 sons and daughters of republican fighters took the transatlantic boat Mexique, that set sail in Bordeau to arrive in Mexico. Previsions were that they would stay there three or four months, but the Republican defeat and the beginning of the Second World War changed that brief exile into a definitive one. This books tells the story not only of those children, but also about the ship, being aware that we do not know how many boats try to cross our oceans every day, moving human beings that have full rights to a proper way of living and not to stand over a land that tears apart below their feet.
