MASTER IC LAYOUT WITHOUT AN ENGINEERING BACKGROUND!
A "plain-English" guide to learning the basics of the integrated circuit design process--co-authored by one of IBM's top instructors!
Electronic semiconductor usage has exploded thanks to new chip applications such as cell phones, personal digital assistants, and consumer electronics--and created an unprecedented demand for technicians skilled in CMOS and bipolar design and layout. In IC LAYOUT BASICS, coauthor Chris Saint incorporates the same top-notch material utilized in his highly successful IBM training courses and offers you an essential primer covering:
* Integrated circuit processes
* Layout techniques
* Fundamental device concepts
* Wafer processes
Writing for technicians without an engineering degree and with the surety and clarity of an experienced teacher, Chris and Judy Saint offer a logical layered approach to learning. They present concepts from the ground up, building on the simple until the complex becomes crystal clear. Examples, self-tests, and sidebars reinforce the material and make it all quick and painless. For maximum retention, each chapter includes preview points, "motivation" boxes, and executive summaries.
The Penguin Dictionary of Biology: Eleventh Edition
"The Penguin Dictionary of Biology" defines some 6,000 terms relating to this rich, complex, and constantly expanding subject -- from amino acids, bacteria, and the cell cycle to X-ray diffraction, Ychromosomes, and zygotes. Long established as the definitive single-volume source, the dictionary has now been extensively updated for its eleventh edition. With expanded encyclopedic entries to explain the most crucial concepts, it explores the very latest discoveries and developments, containing more than 400 new entries to take account of the latest thinking on genetics, human physiology, disease, and cell biology. All key botanical and zoological concepts as well as the core vocabulary of biochemistry, immunology, evolutionary theory, and ecology are defined in depth, making this the ideal reference for students, teachers, professionals, and amateur biologists.

Biochemistry of Signal Transduction and Regulation
This all-new edition of a classic text has been thoroughly revised to keep pace with the rapid progress in signal transduction research. With didactic skill and clarity, the author relates the observed biological phenomena to the underlying biochemical processes.
Directed at advanced students, teachers, and researchers in biochemistry and molecular biology, this book describes the molecular basis of signal transduction, regulated gene expression, the cell cycle, tumorigenesis and apoptosis.
From the reviews of the previous edition:
"Provides a comprehensive account of cell signaling and signal transduction and, where possible, explains these processes at the molecular level" (Angewandte Chemie)
"The clear and didactic presentation makes it a textbook very useful for students and researchers not familiar with all aspects of cell regulation." (Biochemistry)
"This book is actually two books: Regulation and Signal Transduction.

The End of the Trail by Franklin W. Dixon, ISBN 0671047590
A TOWN OF DEADLY SECRETS -- AND NO WAY OUT OF THE WOODS!
Hiking the Appalachian trail with their friends Chet, Phil, and Biff, the Hardys hit a snag when daredevil Biff gets hurt. The old mining town of Morgan's Quarry is the nearest place for help. But even the run-down, isolated town turns menacing when two tough locals drop a bag full of money in front of the brothers!
Joe and Frank are stonewalled when they ask about the money. The roads are washed out, the phones are down, and a crumbling mansion hides a gold mine of secrets. Every fork in the road leads to more danger...

Breving Mission Plague
At its worst, the Spanish Flu of 1918 killed four times as many people as the Black Death. The Alaskan village of Brevig Mission, site of a deadly outbreak eighty years earlier, is home to the U.S. government's lab assigned to research a vaccine. When evidence reveals that a Saudi extremist cell has chosen the flu virus as the next major biological weapon, the government must protect the lab at all costs--and a civilian security company is assigned to test the facility's defenses. When the SecurityCheck team discovers that the flu has been released, they must fight the clock to stop the threat--and find a cure.

Bioprocess Engineering Principles by Pauline M. Doran, ISBN 0122208560
The emergence and refinement of techniques in molecular biology has changed our perceptions of medicine, agriculture, and environmental management. Scientific breakthroughs in gene expression, protein engineering, and cell fusion are being translated by a strengthening biotechnology industry into revolutionary new products and services. Many a student has been enticed by the promise of biotechnology and the excitement of being near the cutting edge of scientific advancement. However, graduates trained in molecular biology and cell manipulation soon realize that these techniques are only part of the picture. Reaping the full benefits of biotechnology requires manufacturing capability involving the large-scale processing of biological material. Increasingly, biotechnologists are being employed by companies to work in cooperation with chemical engineers to achieve pragmatic commercial goals. For many years, aspects of biochemistry and molecular genetics have been included in chemical engineering...
