Through this, his appreciation of the visual appeal of books was bolstered by the practical experience of trying to make books look good. His office in the Victorian building that served as both staff headquarters and stock warehouse was next to that of philosopher and art historian Herbert Read, who served p...

The present year marks the centenary of publication of the first great contribution to physiology by an American author. Some indeed have regarded William Beaumont's Experiments and Observations on the Gastric Juice, published in Plattsburgh in 1833, as the most important work in the history of American physiology.t It therefore seems fitting at this time to set down any details concerning the ...

2. What processes take place in a linguistic interaction that permit an organism (us) to describe and to predict events that it may experience? This is my way of honoring the memory of Eric H. Lenneberg, if one honors the memory of another scientist by speaking about one’s own work Whatever the case, I wish to honor his memory not only because of his great accomplishments, but also because he w...

feature geometry, which is a basic assumption in current phonology, is concerned with the notion that the features are not an unstructured set, but are arranged hierarchically into a constituent structure tree. according to evidences in different languages, various models have been set forth on feature geometry framework. exploring persian phonological data and digging up evidences accordingly,...

You cannot just turn to the specialist and ask him to write on his own subject; the contributors must be men who have had a wide general experience; for this reason we think that the editor of this pa...

We present a molecular theory to study the adsorption of different species within pH-sensitive hydrogel nanofilms. The theoretical framework allows for a molecular-level description of all the components of the system, and it explicitly accounts for the acid-base equilibrium. We concentrate on the adsorption of hexahistidine, one of the most widely used tags in bio-related systems, particularly...
