The concept of glycopeptins all started off as part of a bug hunt. It started off with the observation that from 70 recent obstetrics and gynaecology and reproductive biology books, they all only cite hCG as just a promoter of corpus luteal progesterone, a 1920s finding, and ignore the hundreds of more recent findings. Confirmed and double confirmed science shows that hCG is a molecule with at least 12 important functions in pregnancy. That hC...

Using concepts and methods of the humanities, the book addresses undergraduate and premed students, medical students, and students in other health professions, a...

Human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) is produced during pregnancy by the embryo. It promotes progesterone production by corpus luteal cells. It also functions in pregnancy to promote angiogenesis in uterine vasculature, it immuno-blands the invading placental tissue so it is not rejected by the maternal uterine tissues, promotes the growth of the uterus in line with the growth of the fetus, promotes the differentiation of growing cytotrophoblast...

Excerpt from The New Agriculture: Or the Waters Led Captive In announcing the publication of this book the publishers would state that the claims of the author in behalf of his discoveries and methods seemed, when first presented to our attention, well nigh incredible. It was not until after a personal examination, at the "Home on the Hillside, " of Mr. Cole's system of cultivation and an inspection of some of the wonderful resultant products...

In an intriguing history that traverses the globe, Cole excavates the forgotten history of criminal identification--from photography to exotic anthropometric systems based on measuring body parts, from fingerprinting to DNA typing. He reveals how fingerprinting ultimately won the trust of the public and the law after a long battle against rival identification systems.

Excerpt from Ireland the Outpost Ireland has lain in the path of great migrations, from Berber Africa, from the mouths of Frisian rivers, from the viks and fjords of the sterner northlands. From her own drowned valleys, the harbours that knew the ships of Gades and of Gaul, her people have moved westward and linked the Old world with the new. At times she catches the light that ¿oods across from Europe, and adds to its brightness the ardent g...

Excerpt from Open-Air Studies: An Introduction to Geology Out-of-Doors In 1895, in the preface to the first edition of this little book, I sought to excuse its imperfect mode of treatment of a wide and impressive subject. Some slight knowledge of chemistry and physics may happily be presupposed, and the first chapter is chiefly intended as a reminder of what may be learnt in school. The main part of the book, however, is addressed to those wh...

Excerpt from Aids in Practical Geology While the size of the book has not been increased in this edition, alterations have been made in more than one hundred places, whereby, it is hoped, the fairly wide subject-matter has been brought up to date or more adequately set before the reader. The book has always aimed at aiding those who enquire into the materials and history of the earth's crust, for purposes of research or for any special enterp...

Excerpt from Rocks and Their Origins Rocktaluses, and all the varied alluvium carried seaward as the outcash of continental land, well deserve a chapter to themselves. But there is really no end to the subject, which embraces all the accumulative processes of the earth. A few vacation-journeys, judiciously planned out, teach us that text-books are merely signposts to set us on what is believed to be the way. When the path enters the great for...

Human Physiology, Biochemistry and Basic Medicine is a unique perspective that draws together human biology, physiology, biochemistry, nutrition, and cell biology in one comprehensive volume. In this way, it is uniquely qualified to address the needs of the emerging field of humanology, a holistic approach to understanding the biology of humans and how they are distinguished from other animals. Coverage starts with human anatomy and physiology...

Excerpt from Outlines of Mineralogy: For Geological Students The subject Mineralogy is of fundamental interest to workers in many sciences. A century ago, the study of the materials that diversify the earths crust was regarded as a natural occupation among men of taste and leisure. The "grand tour" of Europe, which became more and more possible at the close of the Napoleonic wars, opened the eyes of many to the wealth of mineral substances th...
