Kin Recognition in Protists and Other Microbes
Genetics, Evolution, Behavior and Health
This is the first volume on the genetics, evolution, and behavior of kin recognition in microbes. It covers how cells recognize kin and clones, the role of kinship in disease, and what microbial cooperation and cheating reveal about the origins of multicellularity.

Evolution of Evolution
The Survival Value of Caring
What is desperately needed is the realization of the evolutionary survival value of caring for others. This book links our humanities to a scientific understanding of human destiny to provide a key to meaning. We don’t have ‘forever’ to ‘get it!’

Basic Biology for Born Engineers
Living Mosaics
While the laws of physics rely on calculus, this approach fails for biology. Living things are not continuous; they are discrete and amazingly exact. This book presents a novel view of biology as the science of ‘living mosaics’, made of discrete, yet interacting, ‘tiles’.

How Organic Pollutants Poison Our Health
Unsafe at Any Level
Many of the infinite number of organic pollutants that poison our environment are derived from organic-based precursors and can dissolve into a folded protein. This work explains how proteins are made, folded, and function, and discusses the ways in which pollutants affect them.
