Item description from seller

Uber-scarce in the trade and quite expensive. Superior copy, gift-quality condition, inside and out, no discernible wear to the glossy pictorial purple cloth over boards, bright and shiny interior. From the publisher blurb, "Systems biology is the study of the dynamic interactions of more than one component in a biological system in order to understand and predict the behavior of the system as a whole. Systems biology is a rapidly expanding discipline fuelled by the 'omics' era and new technological advances that have increased the precision of data. A focus on simple single cell organisms, such as bacteria, aids tractability and means that systems microbiology is a rapidly maturing science. Recommended for all microbiology laboratories, this book contains cutting-edge reviews by world-leading experts on the systems biology of microorganisms. As well as covering theoretical approaches and mathematical modeling, the book includes case studies on single microbial species of bacteria and archaea, and it explores the systems analysis of microbial phenomena, such as chemotaxis and phagocytosis. The topics covered include: the mathematical models for systems biology \* systems biology of Escherichia coli metabolism \* bacterial chemotaxis \* systems biology of infection \* host-microbe interactions \* phagocytosis \* system-level study of metabolism in Mycobacterium tuberculosis \* systems biology of Sulfolobus." Contributions by the two editors and by Chris P. Barnes, Maxime Huvet, Nathan Harmston and Michael P.H. Stumpf; Eivind Almaas, Per Bruheim, Rahmi Lale and Svein Valla; Diana Clausznitzer, Judith P.

Store description

Member, I.O.B.A. (the Independent On-line Booksellers Association) "Structure" versus "Agency." A phrase that has characterized much social-scientific debate. Does “structure” (the routinized regulations of kinship and marriage, work and reproduction, of race, class and gender) determine history, or is it the “agency” of fully conscious, independently acting, individuals? Structure, Verses, Agency Books isn’t going to solve the debate, but we’ll offer you lots of all three. Versus to verses—we specialize in fine, rare and collectible books, from the fine arts to the social sciences, from poetry to photography, from literature and ethnography to fine bindings and Americana.
