    Also from John Wiley . . GENE EXPRESSION - VOLUMES 1 and 2 Benjamin Lewin, Editor, Cell Gene Expression provides a full account of how genes are expressed through nucleic acid and protein synthesis and how these processes are controlled in bacteria. The first section of the book discusses protein synthesis, starting with a chapter on the genetic code, continuing with an account of how protein chains are initiated, elongated and ternriinated and culminating with chapters to discuss the components of the protein synthetic apparatus, that Is ribosomes and transfer DNA. The second section of the book comprises discussion of the transcription of RNA from DNA and its control. The second volume provides an up to date account of the research of past years which has com¬ pletely changed our knowledge of how genes are expressed in eucaryotic cells. ENZYMES: PHYSICAL PROPERTIES H. Gutfreund, Department of Biochemistry, University of Bristol Provides most essential physical chemistry needed for the study of modern biochemistry and of enzymes. The book has also been planned as the first in comprehensive coverage of enzymology since this subject is currently attracting a great deal of research effort, and the author has chosen his topics with an eye toward the future. It is likely that a much wider view will be taken of the role of protein molecules as devices for control and transport in addition to their cata¬ lytic activity. Consequently, on the quantitative aspects of specificity, recognition and protein assembly are emphasized. Prerequisites the general chemistry and biochemistry courses at the university level, and some mathematics. 242 pages 1972 NEVfTECHNIQUES IN VOLUME 1 Edited by R. H. Pain, DepartrrrenTbf Biochemistry, University of Newcastle-upon-Tyne and B. J. Smith, Imperial Cancer Research Fund Laboratories, London For some time there has been a need for a series of books containing short articles of approxi¬ mately 25 printed pages on new techniques in the cell and moletujar biological fields aimed at those students and research workers wanting to assess the value of a technique for use in re¬ search they are already conducting, or needing to learn about the new techniques being applied to biological problems before starting research. 249 pages 1973 JOHN WILEY &SONS London ■ New York • Sydney • Toronto A Wiley—Interscience Publication ISBN 0 471 85343 7
