Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.

This volume focuses on the use of system genetic methods and the use of murine models to study the role of gene variants and environmental factors on human health and disease-what is now often called personalized or precision health care. The protocols in this book will help readers analyze genetic causes of heritable variation across a wide range of systems and traits using rodent models. The chapters in this book are separated into three sections that cover: 1) resources for systems genetics; 2) tools for analysis and integration in systems genetics; and 3) systems genetics use cases. Written in the highly successful Methods in Molecular Biology series format, chapters include introductions to their respective topics, lists of the necessary materials and tools, step-by-step, readily reproducible protocols, and tips on troubleshooting and avoiding known pitfalls. Practical and thorough, Systems Genetics: Methods and Protocols is a valuable resource for anyone who is interested in this diverse field.

Two fictional stories about the horrific potentials of GMO's.

The continued adventures of the teenager team from Earth as they explore their new home in outer space.

The year is 2036 and a preacher by the name of Traven Ellenthal has proclaimed that he is Christ returned. He says the world will soon be coming to an end. Worldwide murder rates and suicide rates have skyrocketed and no one can explain why. Meanwhile, a geneticist; Dr. Abraham Barrentstein, has announced the discovery of the key to evolution at the chromosomal level. His announcement is followed by a visit from government officials wherein he is informed that a secret they have been keeping from the masses may be the cause behind the deadly, maniacal social trends. Song of the Seventh Angel is an apocalyptic thriller that challenges everything you may have come to learn about the history of this planet, evolution vs. creation, and the story of the rapture itself. Follow these characters through some of the darkest times on Earth and find out for yourselves who will be saved and who will perish, and why.
