On the subject of science in Nazi Germany, we are apt to hear about the collaboration of some scientists, the forced emigration of talented Jewish scientists, the general science phobia of leaders of the Third Reich-but little detail about what actually transpired. Biologists under Hitler is the first book to examine the impact of Nazism on the lives and research of a generation of German biologists. Drawing on previously unutilized archival material, Ute Deichmann, herself a biologist, explores not only the lives of the biologists forced to emigrate but also the careers, science, and crimes o

“We highly recommend it—not just for statistically terrified biology students and faculty, but also for those who are occasionally anxious or uncertain. In addition to being a good starting point to learn statistics, it is a useful place to return to refresh your memory.” –The Quarterly Review of Biology, March 2009 "During the entire course of my Ph.D. I’ve been (embarrasingly) looking for a way to teach myself the fundamentals of statistical analysis. At this point in my education, I’ve come to realize that often times, simply knowing the basics is enough for you to prop

Working on the assumption that the reader has no formal training in programming, Perl Programming for Biologists demonstrates how Perl is used to solve biological problems. Each chapter opens with a set of learning objectives, provides numerous review questions and self-study exercises, and concludes with a bulleted summary of key points. The author incorporates numerous real-life examples throughout the text. Upon completing the book, readers are able to quickly perform such tasks as correcting recurring errors in spreadsheets, scanning a Fasta sequence for every occurrence of an EcoRI site,

The third edition of this successful textbook is a lucid introduction to the principles and elementary techniques of statistical reasoning. New materials are included that show the usefulness of computers to biologists; computer analyses of a selection of the examples are presented, using SPSS-X, Minitab and Genstat. The book assumes no mathematical training and uses a minimum of jargon and symbolism. Particular attention is paid to the validity and use of statistical procedures, the interpretation of results, and the meanings of conclusions. Full explanations of statistical methods are gi

The effective design of scientific experiments is critical to success, yet graduate students receive very little formal training in how to do it. Based on a well-received course taught by the author, Experimental Design for Biologists fills this gap. Experimental Design for Biologists explains how to establish the framework for an experimental project, how to set up a system, design experiments within that system, and how to determine and use the correct set of controls. Separate chapters are devoted to negative controls, positive controls, and other categories of controls that are perhaps les
