Given the importance of the development of intellectualism and the
need to ensure equity and access to learning experiences, educators
at all levels must be aware of research-based protocols to
identify, serve, and evaluate programs for diverse gifted learners.
It is essential to understand how gifted education can increase
equity in identification practices for historically
underrepresented groups, what the specific curricular opportunities
are that must be provided to learners to develop gifted programs,
and what the key considerations are to the design and
implementation of authentic and equitable programs for gifted
learners. Creating Equitable Services for the Gifted: Protocols for
Identification, Implementation, and Evaluation curates cutting-edge
protocols in the field of gifted education related to the areas of
equitable identification, implementation of services, and
programmatic assessment. These protocols seek to initiate
discussion and critical discourse regarding diverse gifted learners
among higher education faculty, state department personnel,
district administrators, and classroom teachers. Covering topics
such as digital differentiation, equitable assessment, and STEM
education, this text is ideal for teacher education programs,
preparation programs, university degree programs, university
credential programs, certificate programs, faculty, graduate
students, state departments of education, superintendents,
coordinators, administrators, teachers, professors, academicians,
and researchers.
Recent discoveries in physics, cosmology and biochemistry have captured the public imagination and made the Design Argument - the theory that God created the world according to a specific plan - the object of renewed scientific and philosophical interest. This accessible but serious introduction to the design problem brings together new perspectives from prominent scientists and philosophers including Paul Davies, Richard Swinburne, Sir Martin Rees, Michael Behe, Elliot Sober and Peter van Inwagen. It probes the relationship between modern science and religious belief, considering their points of conflict and their many points of similarity. Is the real God of creationism the 'master clockmaker', who sets the world's mechanism on a perfectly enduring course, or a miraculous presence who continually intervenes in and alters the world we know? Are science and faith, or evolution and creation, really in conflict at all? Expanding the parameters of a lively and urgent debate, God and Design considers how perennial questions of origin continue to fascinate and disturb us.

A coordinated approach using biochemical and immunological tools
has given us a better understanding of the structure of the
eukaryotic surface membrane. From such studies has emerged the
fluid mosaic model of membrane structure and this volume contains a
collection of articles written by noted workers in this field. A
major emphasis in this area of research concerns the changes
brought about on virus-induced and carcinogen-induced tumor cells.
The first chapter comes from a laboratory that was one of the first
to visualize the distribution of transplantation antigens on cell
membrane surfaces. Various methods are described for visualizing
these antigens by electron microscopy. Davis and his colleagues
then proceed to show how the antibody-induced redistribution of
antigenic macromolecules led to the formulation of the fluid mosaic
model. From Hakomori's labora tory comes a methodological paper
describing a novel method of labeling the carbohydrate portions of
the membrane glycoproteins that are exposed on the outer surfaces
of cells. The two chapters reviewing the changes found on
carcinogen-induced and virus-induced malignant cells complete the
survey of the structures associated with surface mem branes. Thanks
are due to Mrs. Carol Garafolo who helped immeasurably with the
preparation of the index for this volume."
It was a warm, sunny morning in Rehovot. The sky was c1ear as it
always is in June. As I walked to the Institute that morning, too
many cars were passing by, too many people were hurrying onto the
Institute's grounds. No one was smiling, acquaintances were
recognized by a slight nod of the head. When I turned the corner, a
few people already had gathered on the lawn in front of the Jacob
Ziskind building. This number was to swell to thousands before the
service was over. We were to be joined by the President of Israel,
its first Prime Minister, many members of the cabinet, and other
great, near-great, working colleagues, and residents of the town.
The purpose of all this activity was written on everyone's face,
and underlined by the casket that lay in the rotunda of the
building. His wife was sitting there, his children, his brother,
his students both past and present. One could hear the silence of
the participants. I stood inside for a while, overlooking the
rotunda. A long line of mourners filed by, offering their
sympathies to the family. Suddenly a woman, dressed in black, fell
to her knees in front 9f Rina, sobbing. It was the wife of the
Japanese Ambassador to Israel. I moved to join the crowd outside.
People were standing on the lawn, gingerly trying to avoid stepping
on a flower.
Both science and religion are aspects of human endeavor that do not
observe political constraints. It is therefore appropriate that
contributions should come from many different countries for a
series which attempts to chronicle developments in an
interdisciplinary field such as membrane research. This volume is
an excellent example of the diversity of thinking, background, and
approach needed by the working scientist for his re search
planning. From Canada comes a review by Silverman and Turner of the
mech anisms by means of which the plasma membrane of the renal
proximal tubule acts as a transport mediator. The two chapters that
were writtyn by American scientists are excellent examples of the
comparative bio chemical approach. Inouye feels he must apologize
for being interested in the outer membrane of E. coli, but it is
obvious, after a reading of his chapter, that no apology is
required. On the contrary, we are grateful for his drawing our
attention to this system and its unique properties. Holtz man,
Gronowicz, Mercurio, and Masur are also on a consciousness raising
mission in summarizing for us a number of integrated functions of
membranes using the toad bladder as an experimental system. The
other two chapters of this volume come from overseas. N orthcote
has again demonstrated his capacity to integrate a complex and
difficult field."
This volume contains the contributions to a symposium held at
Gatlinburg, Tennessee, under the auspices of the Oak Ridge National
Laboratory, in April, 1971. In the past, these proceedings had
appeared as a supplement to the Journal of Cellular Physiology. Due
to the nature of the subject ma terial and the relevance of the
topic of the symposium to the readers of BIOMEMBRANES, it was
agreed by the organizers of the symposium to publish the
contributions of the partici pants as a separate volume in
BIOMEMBRANES. It had been originally envisaged that, from time to
time, the proceedings of a conference whose subject matter was
directly related to the scope of this series would be included. The
proceedings are being published exactly as they have been submitted
to the Editor without the usual editorial re V1S10n. This is being
done to increase the speed of publica tion. For the same rOeason,
no indices have been provided since the time needed to prepare an
adequate subject index would have unnecessarily delayed
publication. Included in the proceedings are short reports of a
number of workshops that were held during the conference. The
editor has received excellent cooperation from both the organizers
of the conference and the several contributors to this volume. If
the experiment is a success, it is thanks to their promptness."
It has become increasingly clear during the last few years that
metabolic processes in plant, bacterial, and mammalian cells can no
longer be thought of as taking place in a homogeneous intracellular
phase. Many enzymes and blood group and histocompatibility antigens
have been found associated with subcellular organelles; some
chemotherapeutic agents are active because they interfere with the
biosynthesis of membranes, and studies of hormonal regulation
involve investigations of various aspects of membrane function. The
integration of structure and function has become one of the most
exciting areas of biochemical investigation, e.g., the brilliant
investigations correlating the mechanisms of bioenergetics with the
structure of the mitochondrion and the biochemical understanding of
the 'p-galactoside permease in Es- cherichia coli as it relates to
transport phenomena across the cell surface membrane. Many other
intracellular processes are being defined as membrane- associated
