If you think economics is boring, then maybe you've been learning about it in the wrong places. The humorous, informal style of "Slackernomics" makes it easy to learn a wealth of information that you will find useful in business, politics, or regular daily life. From the basics of economics to current political controversies, "Slackernomics" cuts through the dull, boring economic arguments you're used to hearing, and presents them in a lively, interesting fashion. If you want to know about the basics of investing, or trade, or how the government uses--and misuses--you money, "Slackernomics" will give you the basics. "Slackernomics" is a must-have book for anyone who wants to know how the economy works, but who doesn't want to be bored to tears while learning it. "Slackernomics" uses witty, fun--sometimes outrageous--examples to help you learn the basics of economics, and maybe get a few good laughs while doing it. By the time you're finished, you'll be able to speak about the economy as knowledgeably as any real economist. And you'll be just as wrong as they are.
The Wnt/ -catenin signaling pathway is a key regulator of cell fate specification, differentiation, and growth in multiple systems throughout the animal kingdom. In vertebrate posterior neural development, Wnt/ -catenin signaling controls this complex multistep process. It initially induces the posterior regions of the nervous system, including the mid-hindbrain border, hindbrain, spinal cord and neural crest, and then subsequently fine-tunes the pattern of each region and determines the different cell fates within them. In this review, we explore the function of the Wnt/ -catenin pathway during the formation of these specific posterior neural regions. We have examined the important transcriptional targets of the Wnt/ -catenin pathway acting downstream to mediate its morphogenetic activity. Different regulatory networks are activated in different posterior neural regions, and these networks induce specific neural cell types in each region. Eludidating how each of these networks specify different cell fates is crucial for understanding the basic tenets of how Wnt morphogenetic activity induces the posterior nervous system during the earliest stages of vertebrate development.
