Introduction to Bioinformatics: A Theoretical and Practical Approach

Introduction to Bioinformatics: 

A Theoretical and Practical Approach
Stephen A. Krawetz and David D. Womble
Hu-mana Press | 2003 | ISBN: 1588290646
550 pages | PDF | 11 MB

This text book provides the physical scientist, whether mathematician, computer scientist, statistician or astrophysicist, with a biological framework to understand the questions a life scientist would pose in the context of the computational issues and currently available tools. 

At the same time, it provides the life scientist with a source for the various computational tools now available, along with an introduction to their underlying mathematical foundations. As such, this book can be used as a bridge toward homologation of these fields. By bringing these disciplines together we may
begin our journey toward understanding the nuances of the genetic code.

Cracking the GRE Biology

Cracking the GRE Biology, 3rd Edition

Publisher: 3rd edition | ISBN: 0375756159 | edition 2000
PDF | 313 pages | 22,36 mb

The Princeton Review doesn't try to teach students everything there is to know about biology -- only what they'll need to know to score higher on the GRE Biology. There's a big difference. In Cracking the GRE Biology, TPR will teach test-takers how to think like the test-makers.

This is accomplished by teaching students how to:
Know what types of questions to expect
Improve scores by studying the topics most likely to appear on the test
Sharpen skills in TPR's biology lab
Get ahead with Word Watch, TPR's list of terms that frequently appear on the test

*This book includes a full-length simulated GRE Biology test. All of The Princeton Review's sample test questions are like the ones test-takers will see on the actual GRE Biology test, and every solution is fully explained.

The Handbook of Life-Span Development, Cognition, Biology, and Methods

The Handbook of Life-Span Development, Cognition, Biology, and Methods
(Volume 1)Richard M. Lerner and Willis F. Overton, "
Wiley | 2010 | ISBN: 0470390115
1040 pages | PDF | 6,9 MB

In the past fifty years, scholars of human development have been moving from studying change in humans within sharply defined periods, to seeing many more of these phenomenon as more profitably studied over time and in relation to other processes. The Handbook of Life-Span Development, Volume 1: Cognition, Biology, and Methods presents the study of human development conducted by the best scholars in the 21st century. Social workers, counselors and public health workers will receive coverage of of the biological and cognitive aspects of human change across the lifespan.
