Human Guinea Pigs, by Kenneth Mellanby: A Reprint with Commentaries
This book reprints Human Guinea Pigs, by Kenneth Mellanby, a seminal work in the history of medical ethics and human subject research that has been nearly unavailable for over 40 years. Detailing the use of World War II conscientious objectors who volunteered for experimentation on scabies transmission, Mellanby’s book offers insight into one approach to human subject experimentation before the development of ethical oversight regulations. His work was initially published prior to the articulation of the Nuremberg Code, which makes his subsequent position as a reporter for the British Medical Journal at the Nuremberg Trials very interesting, particularly given his sometimes controversial opinions on Nazi medical experimentation. This book reprints the second edition together with commentary essays that situate Mellanby’s ethical approach in historical context and relative to contemporary approaches. This volume is of particular interest to scholars of the historyof human subject research.

Biophysics of Nucleic Acids Celebrating the 75th Birthday of Professor Kenneth J. Breslauer
This Special Issue comprises 15 papers broadly outlining current trends in nucleic acid biophysics. It contains original research papers and reviews on structure, stability, and interactions of canonical and non-canonical nucleic acids. The authors describe the use of established, time-honored experimental and computational techniques as well as their more recently developed counterparts. Molecular insights that can be gained from the papers collected in this issue range from the fundamental to the applied with emphasis on biological functions and biomedical prospects of nucleic acids. The collection is not meant to be exhaustive, but to highlight recent advances from select laboratories worldwide. Nevertheless, it represents a useful guide for scientists who wish to familiarize themselves with biophysical topics in nucleic acid research. This Special Issue will be useful both for researchers who study fundamental aspects of nucleic acid structure, stability, and dynamics, as well as for those that are mainly interested in practical biological and biomedical applications of nucleic acids.
The Man in the Willows: The Life of Kenneth Grahame
A moving biography of Kenneth Grahame, author of the children's classic The Wind in the Willows, and of the vision of English pastoral life that inspired it. During his regular days in London, Kenneth Grahame sat behind a mahogany desk as Secretary of the Bank of England; on weekends he retired to the house in the country that he shared with his fanciful wife, Elspeth, and their fragile son, Alistair, and took lengthy walks along the Thames in Berkshire, "tempted by the treasures of hedge and ditch; the rapt surprise of the first lords-and-ladies, the rustle of a field-mouse, the splash of a frog." The result of these pastoral wanderings was his masterful creation of The Wind in the Willows, the enduring classic of children's literature; a cautionary tale for adult readers; a warning of the fragility of the English countryside; and an expression of fear at threatened social changes that, in the aftermath of the World War I, became a reality. Like its remarkable author, the book balances maverick tendencies with conservatism. Kenneth Grahame was an Edwardian pantheist whose work has a timeless appeal, an escapist whose withdrawal from reality took the form of time travel into his own past.
Molecular Structure And Statistical Thermodynamics: Selected Papers Of Kenneth S Pitzer
In the course of his distinguished career of over 55 years, Kenneth S Pitzer published over 360 scientific papers. Included in this volume are 72 papers, selected for their historical importance and continuing significance. In early work, where spectroscopic data were incomplete or, later on, where the systems of interest were so complex that a deductive solution from molecular information was impractical, Pitzer interrelated molecular structural information, statistical methods and thermodynamic measurements to advance the understanding of molecular systems. This volume considers all three aspects and, by putting together selected papers, highlights the cohesiveness of certain advances through time and development. Several papers from journals not widely circulated can also be found in this selection of papers.

Mark Twain advised us that we should shake our brains once in a while, since they get all "caked up." So the author has brushed the cobwebs from his mind to take a closer look at his life, starting with his fascination with old movies and the role models they presented him. He muses on how he got staggeringly drunk during his first wedding; he grapples with the spectre of the OCD that has molded his life; and he tells how he met and married the love of his life, Connie. Life is a series of laughs and tears, and the author lays out his own life with an honesty that will make you pause and think: how much of this is you, as well?
