Including new material on blogs, wikis, podcasts and e-portfolios, the second edition reflects the increasing number of e-learning courses. This practical, flexible text helps students enhance and develop their existing skills whether they are a distance learner, or at an institution which has e-learning integrated into their programmes.

This comprehensive reference work provides an overview of and practical guide to the various computer-aided microscopic techniques used in materials science today. After introducing the basic concepts of optics, the interactions between light and matter, and image processing, Microscopy Techniques for Materials Science goes on to discuss both 2D reflection microscopy and confocal laser scanning microscopy in depth. Hundreds of photographs and illustrations and through specific case studies illustrate the application of these techniques to the characterization of materials. The authors also discuss other modern optical imaging techniques as well as non-optical ones including x-ray micrography.

Here is a guide to help students exploit IT to aid their studies. It demonstrates how information and communication technologies can help with writing, analysis, research, communication and presentation. Most students will know how to word process but not how to exploit word processing applications to write longer documents, add footnotes, insert tables, create indexes, track changes, or add figures, and may have not used a spreadsheet to analyze data. Focusing on Microsoft Office programs, this book will help students develop intermediate or advanced IT skills in those areas most relevant to studying.

IT Skills for Successful Study (Bloomsbury Study Skills, 12)

This comprehensive reference work provides an overview of, and practical guide to, the various computer-aided microscopical techniques used in materials science today. After introducing the reader to the basic concepts of optics, the interactions between light and matter, and image processing, the book goes on to discuss in depth both 2D reflection microscopy and confocal laser scanning microscopy. The application of these techniques to the characterisation of materials is abundantly illustrated by hundreds of photographs and illustrations, and through specific case studies. There is also discussion of other modern optical imaging techniques and of non-optical ones such as x-ray micrography. This reference text is essential both for beginners looking for an introduction to the subject as well as advanced materials researchers in the fields where optical microscopy is used.

This article is concerned with the use of viral models for the study of the mechanism of protein biosynthesis and its regulation. The scope is restricted mainly to general aspects of animal viral systems and how these systems may be used to approach the question of cellular regulation. Most information on the regulation of metabolic processes in eukaryotic cells comes from the study of bacteria and from the successful application of this knowledge to higher systems. However, differences in regulation of the translation of genetic information from the messenger RNA into protein may be expected between prokaryotes and eukaryotes. Due to the short half-life of prokaryotic mRNAs, transcription has been considered as the main mechanism controlling gene expression. Nevertheless, during recent years firm evidence has been accumulated for additional regu­ latory factors operating during translation. This topic was recently reviewed by HASELKORN and ROTHMAN-DENES (1973) and by KOZAK and NATHANS (1972).
