Gregor Johann Mendel continues to fascinate the general public as well as scholars, the former for his life and the latter for his achievements. Solitude of a Humble Genius is a two-volume biography presenting Mendel in the context of the history of biology and philosophy, and in the context of the setting in which he lived and worked. In this first volume the authors set the stage for a new interpretation of Mendelâs achievements and personality. The period of Mendelâs life covered by this volume is critical to understanding why he saw what other biologists, including Charles Darwin, for example, didnât. In searching for clues to Mendelâs thinking, the authors discuss at length the origin of his genes; the history of the region of his birth; they also spend a day and then the four seasons of the year with his family; and finally they examine the schooling he received, as well as the cultural and political influences he was exposed to. An indispensible part of the work is Norman Kleinâs artwork. In this first volume alone, it comprises nearly 80 original drawings and includes cartoons that enliven the narration, scenes from Mendelâs life, portraits, and plans and drawings of the cities and buildings in which he lived, studied, and worked.

Product Description: From molecules to populations and back In biology, the most vigorous organisms often ensue from a union of two disparate, pure lines. In science, too, laws of hybrid vigor seem to operate at the interface between two disciplines, an interface that often proves to be fertile ground for germinating concepts and new outlooks...read more

This textbook contains an account of self/non self discrimination in other invertebrate and vertebrate organisms. Klein demonstrates how the intricate molecular and cellular mechanisms of defence are fashioned by evolution as answers to a variety of biological problems of survival. He goes on to describe our understanding of lymphoid organs, T and B cells, immunoglobulins, lymphokines, histocompatibility, tolerance and the concepts and experiments that define modern immunology. Up-to-date and aiming to do justice to the new molecular understanding of the subject this book redefines the contours of a discipline that increasingly occupies centre stage in modern life science. It emphasizes current trends in immunological research and describes the organization of the immune system, the components of the immune response and the immune system and disease.
