We have developed, in this country, in Europe, and in Japan a triumphant record of research accomplishment that has rev olutionized our vision of the cell, the body, and the environ ment. The genetic code has been unraveled, the means of neuromuscular transmission have been elucidated, we know the fine detail of the cell‘s small geography, and we can de scribe the genes of mouse and man in chemical terms. But it is less clearly perceived by laity and scientist how this new revo lution in biology has been of use in the service of a better medicine or environment. The aim of this series of essays, which grew out of a symposium at the First International Congress of Cell Biology, is to instruct us all in the use that has been made of our new knowledge. In the fields of cancer, behavior, reproduction, genetic engineering, and environmental monitoring, practical results of our new knowledge are already apparent and more are just at hand. But neither the general public nor scientists working in their own narrow disciplines necessarily ap preciate these develo | 出版日期 | Book 1979 | 关键词 | Evolution; Nation; biology; cancer; cell; cell biology; environment; genetic engineering; knowledge; reproduc | 版次 | 1 | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-1-4684-3569-6 | isbn_softcover | 978-1-4684-3571-9 | isbn_ebook | 978-1-4684-3569-6 | copyright | Plenum Press, New York 1979 |
