Cell biology and developmental biology / Quantitative biology, biostatistics and mathematical modelling

Cell biology and developmental biology A Cybernetic View of Biological Growth The Maia Hypothesis Tony Stebbing

A novel cybernetic approach to the traditional study of biological growth, a subject underlying some of the key problems of our times, from cancer to overpopulation. Such problems are due to the failure of control mechanisms, but tend not to be interpreted as such.

Ideal for postgraduates and academic researchers.

Modelling For Field Biologists and Other Interesting People Hanna Kokko University of Helsinki

A friendly guide to mathematical modelling for evolutionary and behavioural ecologists.

‘I really enjoyed this book and I strongly recommend it to modellers and non-modellers alike. ... engaging and ... punctuated with interesting illustrations, anecdotes and other diversions. This book has challenged my own modelling philosophy and I have already learnt a lot from it.’

Bulletin of the British Ecological Society

Contents: Preface; 1. Modelling philosophy, where we get momentarily lost in a forest, but emerge intact; 2. Population genetics, where we find males that treat females quite badly, and some salmon get caught;

3. Quantitative genetics, where we learn to handle a bewildering number of loci, after which a whiff of predators does not scare us at all; 4. Optimization methods, where spiders get quite exhausted, and the author confesses an embarrassing mistake from the distant past; 5. Dynamic optimization, where we travel north, and learn how to survive the winter; 6. Game theory, where we get caught in a traffic jam, and end up wondering where all those trees came from; 7. Self-consistent games and evolutionary invasion analysis where winter is approaching once again, and we wonder if the promise of the coming spring should convince us to stay put; 8. Individualbased simulations, where virtual butterflies try to fly out of our reach, until ruthless exploitation of student labour finally captures them; 9. Concluding remarks, where we ask which chapter you liked most (or disliked least), and end the book with a most useful quote; Appendix: a quick guide to Matlab.

Statistics Explained, An Introductory Guide for Life Scientists Steve McKillup Central Queensland University

Student-friendly introduction to statistics, essential for bioscience undergraduates, particularly those without a strong mathematical background.

‘McKillup deserves to be congratulated on having produced a clear and accessible statistics book pitched at the uninitiated or the unsure. The slightly panicky should relax and take a quiet dose of a couple of chapters at a time and pretty soon all should seem much less awful. For the novice, confident or not, Statistics Explained offers an excellent primer that does not purport to be fully comprehensive yet manages to cover most things one really needs to know.’

The Diatoms Applications for the Environmental and Earth Sciences Second edition Edited by John Smol Queen’s University, Ontario

and Eugene Stoermer University of Michigan, Ann Arbor

This much revised and expanded edition provides a valuable and detailed summary of the many uses of diatoms in a wide range of applications in the environmental and earth sciences.

Particular emphasis is placed on the use of diatoms in analysing ecological problems related to climate change, acidification, eutrophication, and other pollution issues. The chapters are divided into sections for easy reference, with separate sections covering indicators in different aquatic environments. A final section explores diatom use in other fields of study such as forensics, oil and gas exploration, nanotechnology, and archaeology. Sixteen new chapters have been added since the first edition, including introductory chapters on diatom biology and the numerical approaches used by diatomists. The extensive glossary has also been expanded and now includes over 1,000 detailed entries, which will help nonspecialists to use the book effectively.

Social Behaviour Genes, Ecology and Evolution Edited by Tamás Székely University of Bath

Allen J. Moore University of Exeter

and Jan Komdeur Rijksuniversiteit Groningen, The Netherlands

An analysis of the study of social behaviour, with contributions from experts in the field, this book details the theoretical foundations of the mechanisms and functions of social behaviour, and explores more advanced studies, including genetic, ecological and phylogenetic approaches. It provides comprehensive coverage for students and researchers from biological, behavioural and psychological disciplines.

‘Székely, Komdeur and Moore have assembled a hugely successful edited collection on the biology of social behavior. The coverage is up-to-date and complete, dealing with the full range of proximate and ultimate causes of social behavior as well as a broad range of social organisms from bacteria to humans. The chapter authors are leaders in their fields.

Interspersed among the sophisticated but accessible review chapters are short, lively essays written by prominent sociobiologists. An indispensable book for all behavioral biologists and their students.’

All major aspects of the Sciomyzidae are discussed, including behaviour, ecology, life-cycles, and morphology. Detailed keys are presented to aid identification and a checklist of species provides information on geographical range and type specimens.

‘In this magnificently comprehensive analysis, Lloyd Vernon Knutson and Jean-Claude Vala establish a new standard by which all other systematic biological expositions will be evaluated. Current, thorough, thought-provoking, and highly readable, the Biology of SnailKilling Sciomyzidae Flies provides an enormous amount of information across a broad spectrum of topics that range from alpha-level taxonomy to applied biological control and the evolution of predator/parasitoid feeding behaviors. The authors’ unsurpassed knowledge of this group allows them to distill the essence of nearly 2,000 references into a single reliable source of information. The manner in which so much information is presented – clearly, concisely, and in an extraordinarily well organized fashion – makes it instantly accessible.

This book will be of great value not only to dipterists and entomologists in general but also to all those seeking an exemplary, broad-based treatment of one of the most thoroughly studied families of organisms.’

New Flora of the British Isles Third edition Clive Stace

Since its first publication in 1991, New Flora of the British Isles has become established as the standard work on the identification of the wild vascular plants of the British Isles. The Flora remains unique in many features, including its full coverage of all British wild plants, its user-friendly organisation, and its specially compiled keys and descriptions.

This new edition includes the addition of more than 160 species, so that 4,800 taxa are now covered in varying degrees of detail. It also incorporates the new molecular system of classification based on DNA sequences. Furthermore, it includes 1600 species illustrations, rewritten distributions and an overhaul of the designation of degrees of rarity, with the introduction of a third, less rare, category. These revisions should ensure that this third edition remains the essential reference source for all taxonomists, ecologists, conservationists, plant hunters and biogeographers, whether they be researchers, teachers, students or amateurs. ‘… Stace’s Flora is a mine of information, a model of clarity and organization, and one that no serious Irish or British botanist should be without.’

The European Garden Flora A Manual for the Identification of Plants Cultivated in Europe, Both Out-of-Doors and Under Glass Second edition Edited by James Cullen Stanley Smith Horticultural Trust

Sabina G. Knees Royal Botanic Garden, Edinburgh

and H. Suzanne Cubey Royal Botanic Garden, Edinburgh

The European Garden Flora is the definitive manual for the accurate identification of cultivated ornamental flowering plants. Designed to meet the highest scientific standards, the vocabulary has nevertheless been kept as uncomplicated as possible so that the work is fully accessible to the informed gardener as well as the professional botanist. Comprehensive keys are provided at the level of family, genus and species and line diagrams are included to illustrate the important diagnostic features of critical taxa.

Reference is made to useful illustrations and taxonomic accounts and a small amount of guidance on cultivation is provided for many genera. This new edition has been thoroughly reorganised and revised, bringing it into line with modern taxonomic knowledge. Although European in name, the Flora covers plants cultivated in most areas of the United States and Canada as well as in non-tropical parts of Asia and Australasia.
