Fundamentals of Beer and Hop Chemistry

Beer brewing is an intricate process encompassing mixing and further elaboration of four essential raw materials, including barley malt, brewing water, hops and yeast. Particularly hops determine to a great extent typical beer qualities such as bitter taste, hoppy flavour, and foam stability. Conversely, hop-derived bitter acids account for an offending lightstruck flavour, which is formed on e...

Fundamentals of Clinical Immunology

THIS text book was originally published in 1970 in two volumes and the authors have found it necessary to increase the number of volumes to four. They fear that this may make it a reference work rather than a text book. I am afraid that this is inevitable in a four volume series but that does not make it any the less important in my view. In any case I consider all text books, except the most c...

The fundamentals of clinical discovery.

There is a widespread view that clinical research is failing to advance appropriately, particularly in comparison with other aspects of biomedical science. I argue that this is due in part to an inadequate understanding of how medical advance occurs. The common usage of such terms as basic or fundamental, or the uncritical use of the term model is unhelpful--unhelpful, in that such terms tend t...

Fundamentals of clinical trial design.

Most errors in clinical trials are a result of poor planning. Fancy statistical methods cannot rescue design flaws. Thus careful planning with clear foresight is crucial. Issues in trial conduct and analyses should be anticipated during trial design and thoughtfully addressed. Fundamental clinical trial design issues are discussed.
