Gene cloning and manipulation are the basis for almost all research in molecular biology. This book aims to explain these methods to students by stressing the underlying principles of genetic manipulation in a wide range of organisms. Dr. Howe begins by describing the principles behind cloning DNA in E. coli--the enzymes used, the range of cloning vectors available, and how to screen libraries to find particular clones. The author shows how polymerase chain reaction (PCR) can be used as an alternative approach. He then details how sequences can be exploited, once they have been cloned and iden

`This is a timely volume. Understanding the oil and gas industry that China has at home is an essential prerequisite to understanding Chinese foreign policy and the future role of China in world oil and gas markets. It is certain to be a major one.’ - From the preface by Ron Oxburgh, Lord Oxburgh of Liverpool, (Climate Change Capital) China’s rapid economic development is having profound implications for energy resources. China has always been exceptionally reliant on its abundant coal, but consumption of oil and gas have grown rapidly since reform began in the

Parents have come to depend on vaccines to protect their children from a variety of diseases. Some evidence suggests, however, that vaccination against pertussis (whooping cough) and rubella (German measles) is, in a small number of cases, associated with increased risk of serious illness. This book examines the controversy over the evidence and offers a comprehensively documented assessment of the risk of illness following immunization with vaccines against pertussis and rubella. Based on extensive review of the evidence from epidemiologic studies, case histories, studies in animals, and othe
