Music, Society and Imagination in Contemporary France provides new insight into the dominant creative elements of French contemporary music at the close of the 1980s. The collection includes thirteen essays drawn from a diverse range of authors, sketches by composers, musicological studies, and interviews, and a discussion of the universal problems of writing and technique. These elements have taken on an auxiliary role in contemporary music, as musical forms are no longer a primordial concern. The collection poses such challenging questions as whether music should be created for those who do

Mike Altman smashed the Hartsville retaining wall so violently, his left eye popped out of the socket. Billy Baker had a spike welded to his bumper, which he used to rip open Ralph Earnhardt’s tire. Jim Strange flipped three times in the air, crashing hard in front of the flagmam’s stand. Carroll Kirby soared over the first turn so high and fast, he landed over two hundred feet away, breaking his back. Jennings Andrews leapt from his burning Chevelle in front of a wide-eyed and screaming crowd. Out-of-towner, Arnold Hutto, won six Saturday night main events in a row before hi

"If ever there was need and opportunity for Christians to shape culture, it is now," write Charles W. Colson and Nigel M. de S. Cameron. The contributors to "Human Dignity in the Biotech Century" make the case that biotechnology is the next front in the battles over ethics and public policy, and Christians need to bring their influence to bear on the debates. These twelve essays, contributed by scholars and leaders who are part of Colson’s Wilberforce Forum, alert readers to the ethical and legal challenges we face in the new genetics, involving embryo research, stem cell research, clonin

In recent years a growing number of proteases have been identified that catalyse peptide bond hydrolysis in the plane of the cellular membrane. These so-called intramembrane-cleaving proteases (I-CLiPs) are involved in a diverse range of cellular processes, including cell regulation, signalling, quorum sensing, protein processing, lipid metabolism and the unfolded protein response. Some I-CLiPs play critical roles in diseases such as Alzheimer s and viral infection. The authors, who are all world leaders in this exciting field of cell biology, provide an overview of the various proteases inc
