Hippokrates Ueber die Krankheiten III

irrelevant. Chemistry and the relations between science, technology, and industry are well surveyed by Crosland and Cardwell respectively. Forbes's essay on mathematical cosmography is not a comprehensive account but the story (albeit interesting) of a few German cartographers. Compared with other recent collections of essays in the history of science, this volume parades no party line: witness...

Little lambda, who made thee?

The study of the bacteriophage lambda has been critical to the discipline of molecular biology. It was the source of key discoveries in the mechanisms of, among other processes, gene regulation, recombination, and transcription initiation and termination. We trace here the events surrounding these findings and draw on the recollections of the participants. We show how a particular atmosphere of...

Cytokine-induced fever in obese ( fa/ fa) and lean ( Fa/ Fa) Zucker rats.

In earlier work, we reported that genetically obese ( fa/ fa) Zucker rats exhibited significantly greater anorexia than did lean ( Fa/ Fa) Zucker rats to intracerebroventricular infusion of interleukin (IL)-1β. Here, we investigated the fever response of obese ( fa/ fa) and lean ( Fa/ Fa) Zucker rats to intracerebroventricular microinfusion of IL-1β as well as to the following other cytokines: ...

Impact of Departure from Normality on theE

This article considers a linear regression model in which some observations on an explanatory variable are missing, and presents three least squares estimators for the regression coeecients vector. One estimator uses complete observations alone while the other two estimators utilize repaired data with nonstochastic and stochastic imputed values for the missing observations. Asymptotic propertie...
