This collection seeks to elucidate the practical methods necessary
for successful adjuvant development, with a particular focus on the
synthesis, formulation, manufacturing, and characterization aspects
involved. Beginning with an overview and a case study, the book
then delves into in silico design, chemical synthesis,
biosynthesis, and/or purification from natural raw materials of
specific adjuvant molecules, adjuvant formulation approaches, the
analytical characterization of adjuvant formulations and
adjuvant-containing vaccines, as well as the biological
characterization of vaccine adjuvant activity, including in vitro
and in vivo approaches, to measure innate and adaptive immune
responses. Written in the highly successful Methods in Molecular
Biology format, chapters include introductions to their respective
topics, lists of the necessary materials and reagents,
step-by-step, readily reproducible laboratory protocols, and tips
on troubleshooting and avoiding known pitfalls. Practical and
authoritative, Vaccine Adjuvants: Methods and Protocols aims to
facilitate vaccine adjuvant product development efforts, making
them more accessible, manufacturable, and better characterized.

"Corporate Governance Lessons from Transition Economy Reforms"
explores a timely topic at the intersection of economics, law, and
policy reform. To date, most sophisticated theoretical work on
corporate governance has focused on advanced market economies. In
post-socialist countries, corporate finance and transition
economics scholars have often done little more than convey the
received theory to transition policymakers.
This volume focuses, for the first time, on the reverse concern:
what, if anything, do the reform experiences of transition
countries teach about corporate governance theory more generally?
To investigate this question, Merritt Fox and Michael Heller have
assembled a stellar group of corporate governance theorists. The
answers are startling.
The principal essays approach the problem from three
complementary perspectives that form the organizing themes of the
book. The first part refines core corporate theory terms. The
second presents important empirical work that explores the channels
through which "good corporate governance" may link to the real
economy. The final part links corporate governance theory to
practical reforms. After fifteen years of experience, practice can
now inform theory.
Together, these essays present a comprehensive new view on a
provocative theme. Written in an accessible style, they will be of
interest to a broad range of scholars, commentators, and
policymakers.

The U.S. stock market has been transformed over the last
twenty-five years. Once a market in which human beings traded at
human speeds, it is now an electronic market pervaded by
algorithmic trading, conducted at speeds nearing that of light.
High-frequency traders participate in a large portion of all
transactions, and a significant minority of all trade occurs on
alternative trading systems known as "dark pools." These
developments have been widely criticized, but there is no consensus
on the best regulatory response to these dramatic changes. The New
Stock Market offers a comprehensive new look at how these markets
work, how they fail, and how they should be regulated. Merritt B.
Fox, Lawrence R. Glosten, and Gabriel V. Rauterberg describe stock
markets' institutions and regulatory architecture. They draw on the
informational paradigm of microstructure economics to highlight the
crucial role of information asymmetries and adverse selection in
explaining market behavior, while examining a wide variety of
developments in market practices and participants. The result is a
compelling account of the stock market's regulatory framework,
fundamental institutions, and economic dynamics, combined with an
assessment of its various controversies. The New Stock Market
covers a wide range of issues including the practices of
high-frequency traders, insider trading, manipulation, short
selling, broker-dealer practices, and trading venue fees and
rebates. The book illuminates both the existing regulatory
structure of our equity trading markets and how we can improve it.
