The last decade has seen many important advances in the measurement and interpretation of the impacts of environmental heterogeneity upon organisms and ecological processes. Progress has been made at a range of scales of organization. Following a Symposium on the Ecological Consequences of Environmental Heterogeneity, held in 1999, a team of experts has collaborated to produce this volume, which discusses the effects of environmental heterogeneity. It includes discussion of the effects of spatial and temporal heterogeneity on individuals, populations, communities and biodiversity, and of the m

Although the theory and applications of secondary cohomology operations are an important part of an advanced graduate-level algebraic topology course, there are few books on the subject. The AMS fills that gap with the publication of the present volume. The author’s main purpose in this book is to develop the theory of secondary cohomology operations for singular cohomology theory, which is treated in terms of elementary constructions from general homotopy theory. Among many applications considered are the Hopf invariant one theorem (for all primes $p$, including $p = 2$), Browder’

From Mickey Mantle and Whitey Ford to Dwight Gooden and Darryl Strawberry to Derek Jeter and Mariano Rivera, Stottlemyre connected generations of stars during a remarkable career. In his long-awaited autobiography, Stottlemyre tells his story in colorful detail, from his days as a rookie sensation on the last of the great Mantle teams to those as trusted pitching coach during the Joe Torre administration.

In this second volume of a three-volume set (updating the seminal 1981 monograph The Molecular Biology of the Yeast Saccharomyces), the emphasis is on gene expression. A continuing theme of these monographs has been the extent to which basic biological processes have been conserved in the eukaryotic
