This indispensable guide for writers provides details of hundreds
of literary agents, book publishers, and magazines; including
contact details, types of material accepted, and how to approach
them Subject indexes for each area provide easy access to the
markets you need, with specific lists for everything from romance
publishers, to poetry magazines, to literary agents interested in
thrillers. It also provides unparalleled access to international
markets. The internet has made the publishing industry more global
than ever, with markets increasingly accepting submissions by email
(some no longer accept postal submissions at all). Other
directories have failed to respond to this, continuing to focus on
one single country, but this directory provides you with that
all-important access to overseas opportunities that are now just an
email away. And by focusing exclusively on what's important to
writers - contact details for literary agents, publishers, and
magazines - this directory is able to provide more listings at a
lower price. There are no adverts, no advertorials, and no
unnecessary articles or obscure listings padding out hundreds of
pages. Two established alternative directories both run to over 800
pages, yet one has only 204 pages of publisher, agent, and magazine
listings, and the other has only 10 pages devoted to literary agent
listings This book does better on both counts, and yet remains
substantially cheaper than either alternative. The book also
includes free access to the firstwriter.com website, where you can
find even more listings. You can also benefit from other features
such as advanced searches, daily email updates, feedback from users
about the markets featured, saved searches, competitions listings,
searchable personal notes, and more
From Alfred Ackroyd to Yuvraj Singh, from Isaac Hodgson in 1863 to
Kraigg Brathwaite in 2017, this volume features profiles of all
those 670 men who have represented The Yorkshire CCC by playing for
its first eleven in first-class cricket, limited-overs matches or
Twenty20 games as well as the 59 who played for 'Yorkshire' prior
to the official Club's formation. Whether they played in an amazing
total of 883 matches, as Wilfred Rhodes did, or whether they wore
the county colours just once – and this, surprisingly, applies to
115 players – each and every one of them has their own place in
the county’s history and the contents within. Produced in quality
hardback and featuring over 250 illustrations – this is a must
read for fans of YCCC
Streptomycetes are unusually complex bacteria that are abundant in
soil. They grow as branching filaments and form chains of spores.
Most importantly, they have an extraordinary ability to make
antibiotics, for which they are the main industrial source, as well
as other metabolites with medicinal properties. In recent years,
the search for new antibiotics and other drugs in streptomycetes
has been augmented by genomic studies, genome mining, and new
biotechnological approaches. With contributions from some of the
leading scientists in the field, this book documents recent
research and development in streptomycetes genomics, physiology,
and metabolism. With a focus on biotechnology and genomics, the
book provides an excellent source of up-to-date information. Topics
include: genome architecture * conjugative genetic elements *
differentiation * protein secretion * central carbon metabolic
pathways * regulation of nitrogen assimilation * phosphate control
of metabolism * gamma-butyrolactones and their role in antibiotic
regulation * clavulanic acid and clavams * genome-guided
exploration * gene clusters for bioactive natural products *
genomics of cytochromes p450. The book is essential reading for
research scientists, biotechnologists, graduate students, and other
professionals involved in streptomycetes research, antibiotic and
antimicrobial development, drug discovery, soil microbiology and
related fields. It is a recommended text for all microbiology
laboratories.
