Laser microdissection techniques have revolutionized the ability of researchers in general, and pathologists in particular, to carry out molecular analysis on specific types of normal and diseased cells and to fully utilize the power of current molecular technologies including P…
Why do students continue to dissect animals in biology classes? This book explores the background to current practice regarding dissection in the classroom and guides students, teachers and parents through the various options.
Why do students continue to dissect animals in biology classes? Why, despite the excellence of teaching resources for veterinary and human medical education that substitute for dissection, do those provided for pre-college students fall short in convenience, flexibility, and coo…

Provides sections that deal directly with national and state standards, and discusses the sometimes conflicting objectives of pre-college science education and the related areas of health and veterinary training.
Surgeons employ craft, cunning, and technology to open, observe, and repair patient bodies. In Bodies in Formation, anthropologist Rachel Prentice enters surgical suites increasingly packed with new medical technologies to explore how surgeons are made in the early twenty-first …

A neurologist walks in Princeton -- April 18, 1955 -- What the neuropathologist knew ... and didn't know -- The lost decades (1955-1985), the cider box, and the microscope -- The exceptional brain(s) of Albert Einstein -- How does a genius think? -- The pursuit of genius -- Wher…
"Albert Einstein remains the quintessential icon of modern genius. Like Newton and many others, his seminal work in physics includes the Theory of General Relativity and perhaps the most famous equation of all time: E=mc2. Following his death in 1955, Einstein's brain was remove…
