The Cell: A Molecular Approach is an ideal resource for undergraduate students in a one-semester introduction to cell biology. Cell biology instructors face the challenge of cultivating both the foundational knowledge and analytical skills that students need for their entry into an increasingly complex field. The Cell: A Molecular Approach endeavors to address those issues with succinct writing, incorporation of current research, a test bank that encourages critical thinking, and an active learning framework. The text presents fundamental concepts and current research, including chapters on Genomics and Transcriptional Regulation and Epigenetics, and new in-text boxed features on Molecular Medicine and Key Experiments. The Cell: A Molecular Approach is available with Oxford Insight. Oxford Insight pairs best-in-class OUP content with curated media resources, activities, and gradable assessment, in a guided learning environment that delivers performance analytics, drives student engagement, and improves student outcomes.

Human Development and Criminal Behavior proposes an exten- sive agenda for crime research. The book is part of a pio- neering effort to understand the causes of crime, particu- larly its developmental course. It defines and sets the con- ditions necessary to conduct an accelerated longitudinal study of individuals at risk to become engaged in criminal careers. This work offers a blueprint for research to eluci- date and possibly prevent crime in our society.

This is a major revision of a standard reference work for neuropsychologists, psychiatrists, and neurologists. About one-half of the book contains entirely new work by new contributors. New topics not covered in the previous editions include consideration of common sources of neurocognitive morbidity, such as multiple sclerosis, diabetes, and exposure to heavy metals; psychiatric and behavioral disorders associated wtih traumatic brain injury; neuropsychology in relation to everyday functioning; the effects of cognitive impairment on driving skills, and adherence to medical treatments.
The Third Edition aims to reflect the enormous developments in neuropsychology in terms of research, clinical applications, and growth of the discipline during the past decade. At one time focused on mapping the cognitive and related consequences of brain injuries, research in neuropsychology has now expanded to much broader considerations of the effects of systemic disease, infection, medications, and inflammatory processes on neurocognition and emotion. The Third Edition attemtps to capture these developments while continuing to adhere to the objective of presenting them in a concise manner in a single volume.

This work is intended to give the reader a topic for thought each day of the year. Each page contains a different subject in order to allow the reader time to consider each subject fully. The main focus of this book is to inspire the reader to seek a better understanding of life by means of increasing ones knowledge. Most people are far too busy to contemplate every individual action made on a daily basis, this books goal is to give people the tools they need to make better decisions for themselves each day. The more knowledge one has, the better prepared one will be to make decisions that will add value to all life. This book is perfectly at home in any place the reader has for time to read and think. It is perfect for the car, briefcase, workspace, bedroom, bathroom, or any place where the reader feels at ease. This book was originally written and published in 1936 as "A Minute A Day," the author, L.L.Castetter, was by all accounts a man driven to learn as many things about life as possible in order to live a more productive and fulfilling life. I have revised, edited, and added some of my own writings in order to bring it up to date as well as to reflect the books original desire to add value to life.
