How do you keep track of basic information on the proteins you work
with? Where do you find details of their physicochemical
properties, amino acid sequences, gene organization? Are you tired
of scanning review articles, primary papers and databases to locate
that elusive fact?
The Academic Press FactsBook series will satisfy scientists and
clinical researchers suffering from information overload. Each
volume provides a catalog of the essential properties of families
of molecules. Gene organization, amino acid sequences,
physicochemical properties, and biological activity are presented
using a common, easy-to-follow format. Taken together they compile
everything you want to know about proteins but are too busy to look
for. The Chemokine FactsBook contains more than 40 entries on
chemokines, and chemokine receptors from human or other origin,
including IL-8, MCP-1, C5-a, RANTES, Lymphotactin, and CC CKR-1.
The text provides information on tissue sources, target cells,
physicochemical properties, transcription factors, regulation of
expression in disease, receptor-binding characteristics, gene
structure and location, amino acid sequences, and accession numbers
and references.

Object Lessons is a series of short, beautifully designed books
about the hidden lives of ordinary things. The mall near Mat thew
Newton's childhood home in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, was one of the
state's first enclosed shopping malls. Like all malls in their
heyday, this one was a climate-controlled pleasuredome where
strangers converged. It boasted waterfalls, fish ponds, an indoor
ice skating rink larger than Rockefeller Center's, and a monolithic
clock tower illuminated year-round beneath a canopy of
interconnected skylights. It also became the backdrop for filmmaker
George A. Romero's zombie opus Dawn of the Dead. Part memoir and
part case study, Shopping Mall examines the modern mythology of the
mall and shows that, more than a collection of stores, it is a
place of curiosity, ritual, and fantasy. Object Lessons is
published in partnership with an essay series in The Atlantic.
