Working with DNA (The Basics)

Book Description

Working with DNA is a guide to the materials and methods that are used in the recombinant DNA laboratory and is designed to help the novice understand how specific laboratory techniques work. It is also suitable for experienced researchers. It is not a book of step-by-step protocols and recipes; it is intended to broaden and strengthen the foundation of the reader's knowledge so that working with DNA becomes more natural and make them aware of the many ways in which a molecular research question may be addressed.

Book Description

The two Essential Molecular Biology books in the Practical Approach Series are designed for the absolute beginner at gene cloning whether they be at the start of their career or an experienced researcher in another field. As with the first editions, the objective of both volumes is to combine solid practical information with sufficient background material to ensure that the novice can understand how a technique works, what it achieves, and how to make modifications to suit personal requirements. Volume 1 concentrates on the procedures for DNA and RNA manipulation: purification, electrophoresis, and the construction and cloning of recombinant molecules. It also includes a general introduction to molecular biology in the laboratory and a survey of cloning vectors for Escherichia Coli.

Book Description

Recombinant DNA methods are powerful, revolutionary techniques that allow the isolation of single genes in large amounts from a pool of thousands or millions of genes and the modification of these isolated genes or their regulatory regions for reintroduction into cells for expression at the RNA or protein levels. These attributes lead to the solution of complex biological problems and the production of new and better products in the areas of medicine, agriculture, and industry.
Recombinant DNA Methodology, a volume in the Selected Methods in Enzymology series produced in benchtop format, contains a selection of key articles from Volumes 68, 100, 101, 153, 154, and 155 of Methods in Enzymology. The essential and widely used procedures provided at an affordable price will be an invaluable aid to the graduate student and the researcher.

IDEAL TEXT BOOK THAT MODERATELY COVERS BASIC LABORATORY TECHNIQUES USED IN RECOMBINANT DNA TECHNOLOGY. GOOD SOURCE OF INFORMATION FOR A LAB WRITE-UP.

Book Description

From the beginning, Jews have played a prominent role in our national pastime, the game of baseball, but have often been ignored. This is the first baseball encyclopedia dedicated to naming and honoring every Jewish contributor. These often remarkable stories ensure they will no longer be forgotten.

The Big Book of Jewish Baseball covers everything, from tragic moments such as Herb Gorman dying on the ball field, and Erskine Meyer quitting the sport after finding out about his teammates (on the 1919 White Sox) taking bribes, to happier occasions such as Koufax's perfect game as well as Larry Sherry successfully concluding every Dodger victory of the 1959 World Series.

Jews who impacted upon the great American pastime extend far beyond the record homeruns and strikeouts of the legendary slugger "Hammerin' Hank" Greenberg and pitching ace Sandy Koufax. There are scores of lesser known ballplayers like Lipman Pike (the first professional Jewish player), Cal Abrams (who shielded Jackie Robinson with his body), and Ron Blomberg (who stood in as the very first Designated Hitter), whose baseball stories will touch or amuse readers of any background.

The Big Book of Jewish Baseball explores all facets of baseball, including: Minor League players, Umpires, Jewish League Officials and Club Executives. It even includes a 2001 Major League update, as well as 200 B&W photographs. This book is a must for anyone interested in the game.

Also included are full player stats, unusual memorabilia, exclusive original interviews, and rare photos of players on & off the field.

This one-of-a-kind book will be much appreciated by both baseball aficionados as well as readers of popular Judaica. In addition, the authors convey so much about the lives of the players, not just their baseball careers, some great transcendent moments both in baseball and American history come alive for readers.

Customer Reviews:

Good for any sports fan!.......2006-02-03

I recieved this as a gift and found it very interesting. I also was able to use it in a research project for school. I recomend this book for anyone intrested in sports.

Horvitz & Horvitz hit a home run.......2002-05-13

They're all here -- the ones you can name (Hank Greenberg, Sandy Koufax, Shawn Green) and the ones you can't (just about everyone else). This is the perfect Father's Day gift for Jewish, baseball-loving Dads everywhere and a great resource to have on your baseball bookshelf. At least, I'm sending a copy to my father-in-law and I love having a copy on my own shelf!

Great Hanukah Present for any Baseball Fan.......2001-11-26

I absolutely loved this book. It's both fun and easy to read and fully thorough. It's definitly the standard book on Jewish baseball players.

Fun and Interesting!.......2001-04-27

This is a great book to thumb through and read all of the interesting stories. It's well-written, entertaining, and extremely interesting. The stories rang from the compelling to the hilarious. You don't have to be Jewish to enjoy it. It's a great book for any sports fan!
