Published by University Science Books

‘This is an excellent text for our undergraduate bioscience students who require advanced training in physical chemistry. It is primarily a physical chemistry textbook, and it does not scrimp on the key concepts of thermodynamics, kinetics, and molecular quantum mechanics. At the same time, the presentation style is clear and understandable, and the text is sprinkled with just enough biochemistry to maintain our students’ interest.’ Alan Van Orden, Colorado State University, USA This book is ideal for use in one-semester introductory courses within life sciences. The emphasis is on helping students to a solid understanding of physical concepts, rather than focusing on precise mathematical development or experimental details. Assuming only basic skills of differential and integral calculus, and providing end-of-chapter problems with both physiochemical and biological applications, it is an accessible and useful guide to the subject.

Sensation, Perception and Action An Evolutionary Perspective Johannes Zanker, Royal Holloway, University of London, UK

Published by Palgrave Macmillan

‘I was excited to see a book that included ‘Action’ both in the title and content since this aspect of perception is usually missing ...this book will help to complete the picture of perception and action.’ Richard Wilkie, Lecturer in Perception, Action and Cognition, University of Leeds, UK With a style that is both detailed and accessible, this new text from Johannes Zanker provides students with a solid understanding of how our sensory and perceptual systems operate, and interact with a dynamic world. It not only explains the scientific mechanisms involved, but discusses the costs and benefits of these mechanisms within an evolutionary, functional framework, to encourage important questions such as: What is a given sensory mechanism needed for? What kind of problem can it solve and what are its limitations? How does the environment determine how senses operate? How does action affect and facilitate perception? This unique, interdisciplinary framework allows students to see perceiving and acting as embedded in particular environments and directs them to think about the functional nature of these systems. The overall effect is an especially readable, authoritative text on sensation, perception and action that really brings this fascinating topic to life.

Phylogenetic Trees Made Easy

Inferring Phylogenies

A How-To Manual 3rd edition

Joseph Felsenstein, University of Washington, USA Barry G. Hall, Emeritus, University of Rochester, USA

Published by Sinauer Associates, Inc.

Phylogenetic Trees Made Easy helps the reader get started in creating phylogenetic trees from protein or nucleic acid sequence data. Although aimed at molecular and cell biologists, who may not be familiar with phylogenetic or evolutionary theory, it also serves students who may be familiar with phylogenetic theory but are unfamiliar with the tools used to apply that theory. The reader is led, step-by-step, through identifying sequences that are homologous to a sequence of interest, downloading these sequences from databases, creating multiple alignments, and using several different methods to construct trees. Contents: Read Me First! / Tutorial: Create a Tree! / Acquiring and Aligning the Sequences / Interlude 1: The Major Methods for Estimating Phylogenetic Trees / Neighbor-Joining Trees / Drawing Phylogenetic Trees / Parsimony / Maximum Likelihood / Bayesian Inference of Trees with Mr Bayes / Interlude 2: Which Method Should You Use? / Reconstructing Ancestral Sequences / Detecting Adaptive Evolution / Working with Various Computer Platforms / Appendix I: File Formats and Their Interconversion / Appendix II: Additional Programs / Literature Cited / Index to Major Programs Discussed / Subject Index August 2007 Paperback

Phylogenies, or evolutionary trees, are the basic structures necessary to think about and analyze differences between species. Statistical, computational, and algorithmic work in this field has been ongoing for four decades now, and there have been great advances in understanding. Yet no book had summarized this work. Inferring Phylogenies does just that in a single, compact volume. Phylogenies are inferred with various kinds of data. This book concentrates on some of the central ones: discretely coded characters, molecular sequences, gene frequencies, and quantitative traits. Also covered are restriction sites, RAPDs, and microsatellites. October 2003 Paperback

Hacker, Oregon State University, USA Authored by ecologists with more than thirty years’ teaching experience among them, Ecology offers a balanced presentation of the subject matter, clearly presented concepts with engaging examples, and the most current information available in the field. To aid students in integrating material across the levels at which ecology is studied, the book is structured so that they are constantly reminded of connections between different tiers of the ecological hierarchy (from individuals to populations to communities and ecosystems) and links to evolution - a unifying theme for all ecology.

The fourth edition presents a concise but detailed exposition of the most common mathematical models in population and community ecology. The book demystifies ecological models and the mathematics behind them by deriving the models from first principles. Specifically, it provides a detailed description of the basic concepts of exponential and logistic population growth, age-structured demography, metapopulation dynamics, competition, predation, island biogeography, succession, and, in a chapter new to this edition, species richness. Advanced topics include environmental and demographic stochasticity, discrete population growth and chaos, stage-structured demography, intra-guild predation, nonlinear predator-prey isoclines, and passive sampling. Essential equations are highlighted for students’ use and intermediate algebraic ‘expressions’ are illustrated so that students see where the equations came from. The Primer contains more mathematical detail than many ecology textbooks, but avoids jargon and mathematical terminology that can intimidate students. Both simple and advanced problems are included, followed by fully worked solutions so that students can gain confidence and a better understanding of the models.

Why Men Die First How to Lengthen Your Lifespan

The Origins of Sociable Life Evolution after Science Studies

Marianne J. Legato, Internationally Recognized Physician, Author, and Professor of Clinical Medicine, Columbia University, USA

Published by Macmillan Science

‘This clearly written book, with its informative coverage of the male perspective on genderspecific medicine and ironically written by a female physician is a good purchase for public libraries and consumer health collections.’ - Library Journal Offers specific advice on what men can do to live longer, including lifestyle changes that can prevent heart disease, help to decrease stress, to cope with mid-life depression and feelings of emasculation and uselessness, and how testosterone shots can mitigate the symptoms of aging.

Myra J. Hird, Queen’s National Scholar and Professor, Queen’s University, Canada

Introducing Science Communication A Practical Guide Edited by Mark L. Brake, Professor of Science Communication, University of Glamorgan, UK and Emma Weitkamp, Senior Lecturer in Science Communication, University of the West of England, UK

Published by Palgrave Macmillan

‘…a highly engaging and energetic account of contemporary scientific debates about microbes, detailing how they challenge mainstream understandings of evolution, identity, sex and ecology…Her enthusiasm for her subject matter is infectious.’ Celia Roberts, Department of Sociology, Lancaster University, UK ’…an exciting and inviting account of the messy entanglements and inventions of the world’s tiny beings, those entities that shape scale upon scale of sociable living for all on the earth. Myra Hird’s book is richly researched and beautifully written.’ - Donna Haraway, Distinguished Professor, History of Consciousness Department, UC Santa Cruz, USA

From climate change to stem cell research, this book shows how to communicate complex scientific issues to the masses. Each chapter explains key methods and issues, providing the reader with practical and theoretical understanding of science communication. This is an essential text for students learning how to communicate science in today’s media.

This ambitious book considers social scientific topics such as identity, community, sexual difference, self, and ecology from a microbial perspective. Harnessing research and evidence from earth systems science and microbiology, and particularly focusing on symbiosis and symbiogenesis, the book argues for the development of a micro-ontology of life.
