Introducing Epigenetics - Cath Ennis
Epigenetics is the most exciting field in biology today, developing our understanding of how and why we inherit certain traits, develop diseases and age, and evolve as a species. This non-fiction comic book introduces us to genetics, cell biology and the fascinating science of epigenetics, which is rapidly filling in the gaps in our knowledge, allowing us to make huge advances in medicine. We''ll look at what identical twins can teach us about the epigenetic effects of our environment and experiences, why certain genes are ''switched on'' or off at various stages of embryonic development, and how scientists have reversed the specialization of cells to clone frogs from a single gut cell. In Introducing Epigenetics, Cath Ennis and Oliver Pugh pull apart the double helix, examining how the epigenetic building blocks and messengers that interpret and edit our genes help to make us, well, us.

The Epigenetics Revolution - Nessa Carey
At the beginning of this century enormous progress had been made in genetics. The Human Genome Project finished sequencing human DNA. It seemed it was only a matter of time until we had all the answers to the secrets of life on this planet.The cutting-edge of biology, however, is telling us that we still don't even know all of the questions.How is it that, despite each cell in your body carrying exactly the same DNA, you don't have teeth growing out of your eyeballs or toenails on your liver? How is it that identical twins share exactly the same DNA and yet can exhibit dramatic differences in the way that they live and grow?It turns out that cells read the genetic code in DNA more like a script to be interpreted than a mould that replicates the same result each time. This is epigenetics and it's the fastest-moving field in biology today.The Epigenetics Revolution traces the thrilling path this discipline has taken over the last twenty years. Biologist Nessa Carey deftly explains such diverse phenomena as how queen bees and ants control their colonies, why tortoiseshell cats are always female, why some plants need a period of cold before they can flower, why we age, develop disease and become addicted to drugs, and much more. Most excitingly, Carey reveals the amazing possibilities for humankind that epigenetics offers for us all - and in the surprisingly near future.

Running out of Road - Cath Staincliffe
''Staincliffe excels herself here with the story of a teenage girl abducted by her real father... [a]harrowing but human drama.'' Irish Daily MailA missing schoolgirl, a middle-aged recluse, an exploited teenager. Lives thrown into chaos and set on collision course. With the police in hot pursuit. Scarlett is dancing in the school talent show tomorrow. Nana, who Scarlett lives with since Mum died, reckons Scarlett will be on Strictly at this rate. Except Scarlett doesn''t make it home from school. She''s abducted by a man she never imagined she''d see again. A man on the police''s most wanted list. Her dad. Ron has made a living as a house and pet sitter since quitting his career on the front line in the fire service. He''s currently looking after a place deep in the Derbyshire Peaks. The solitude suits him. And managing animals is so much simpler than coping with other people. Dylan''s a ''cuckoo'', dealing drugs on the county line, moving from nest to nest, picking out people who daren''t say no. Keeping his head down, one step ahead of the law. So far. But now everything''s falling apart.DS Laura O''Neil is running on empty after nights dealing with her teething toddler. But Laura is driving the hunt for Scarlett and knows that every minute counts. A race against time, played out in the brooding wilderness, the limestone gorges and gritstone edges of the Peak District. Themes of escape and entrapment, of shifting loyalties and new alliances, of violence, fear and love, resilience, kindness and hope.Praise for Cath Staincliffe:''''This powerful, often harrowing story will move you to tears'' My Weekly''Harrowing and humane. A real knockout'' Ian Rankin''It''s always exciting to see a writer get better and better and Cath Staincliffe is doing just that'' Val McDermid''Powerful, complex and utterly gripping'' Sunday Mirror''An intelligent and emotionally engaging moral workout'' Daily Telegraph''Complex and satisfying'' Sunday Times

Are his outbursts and silences hiding something much darker than adolescent mood swings? And if her suspicions are correct, then what does she do? Another parent fights tooth and nail to save his boy from the full force of the law. But if he succeeds then Allie and her family will never get the justice they deserve.A groundbreaking story of love and hate, loyalty and betrayal, in a world of change.------Praise for Cath Staincliffe''Staincliffe deserves to be better known.

Preacher - Garth Ennis, Steve Dillon
Zlý, ještě horší a ošklivý Při svém pátrání po uprchlém Bohu, kterého hodlá hnát k odpovědnosti, narazil Jesse Custer na spoustu divných existencí - a není žádným překvapením, že mnohé z nich mají svůj vlastní podivuhodný příběh. Pradávná historie je sbírkou několika takových příběhů, které původně vyšly jako samostatné speciály. V hlavních rolích tu vystupují některé z nejbarvitějších vedlejších postav série Kazatel: "Svatý zabiják" nám vyjeví kompletní proces vzniku Custerovy nadpřirozené nemesis, jenž se odehrál jak na zamrzlých pláních Divokého západu, tak v těch nejžhavějších zákoutích samotného pekla; "Hoši z Jihu" se ohlédnou za idyličtějšími časy čtyřiadvacetikarátových buranů Jodyho a T. C., kteří za radostné pomocí celého arzenálu klišé akčních filmů čirou náhodou překazí plány mezinárodních teroristů; v "Příběhu-Vy-Víte-Koho" pro změnu zavítáme do světa frustrujícího dospívání na maloměstě, abychom byli svědky tragické frašky, která dala světu Prdelmana; a v Cassidyho flashbacku "Krev a whisky" odkryjeme něco z temné minulosti tohoto irského upíra spojené s neworleánským společenstvím Les Enfants Du Sang. Pradávná historie vychází jako závěrečná kniha preacherovské série, ságy, která patří k nejoceňovanějším titulům devadesátých let. Scenárista Garth Ennis a kreslíř Steve Dillon ji stvořili coby moderní americkou epopej, v níž dojde na tak zásadní věci jako život, smrt, lásku i vykoupení, nemluvě o věcech ještě zásadnějších jako je spousta sexu, alkoholu, krve a zbraní - a to ani nezmiňujeme anděle, démony, Boha, upíry a úchyly všech druhů. Pradávná historie představuje rozloučení s jedním z nejdivočejších a nejintenzivnějších příběhů, jaký se v komiksovém formátu kdy objevil.

Thor - Vikingové - Garth Ennis, Glenn Fabry
Někdy i bůh hromu narazí na protivníky, na které prostě nestačí. Třeba na nemrtvé vikingy, kteří po tisíci letech putování přistáli na Manhattanu a začali s drancováním. Aby měl šanci, musí dát dohromady tým krví spojených bojovníků z různých historických epoch. Stačí ale vikingská bojovnice, fanatický křižák a nacistický pilot k zastavení nemrtvé hrozby? I když vychází komiks právě ve chvíli, kdy se chystá do kin filmový Thor, tak Vikingové nejsou adaptace filmu. Tenhle Thor vyšel v rámci dospělejší řady MAX (ze které momentálně vychází kupříkladu Punisher), napsal ho jeden z nejosobitějších komiksových tvůrců Garth Ennis (Preacher, Punisher) a brilantní kresbou příběh doplnil slavný Glenn Fabry (obálky k Preacherovi, Nikdykde).

Hellblazer: Syn člověka (2. vydání) - Garth Ennis, John Higgins
Smrt neoblafneš... ale když ti někdo přiloží bouchačku k hlavě, budeš se o to fakt hodně snažit. Což zjistil John Constantine ve chvíli, kdy potkal Harryho Coopera. Král londýnského podsvětí chtěl oživit mrtvého syna a teď – o šestnáct let a jeden antiexorcismus později – ovoce tehdejšího Constantinova zoufalého činu konečně dozrálo, puklo a zalilo Londýn shnilou šťávou. A Constantine, o něco starší a o nic moudřejší, se konečně musí postavit tváří v tvář noční můře, kterou vyvolal.V komiksu HELLBLAZER: SYN ČLOVĚKA se slavný scenárista Preachera, Hitmana a Punishera Garth Ennis opět spojil se svým kreslířským parťákem z minisérie Pride & Joy Johnem Higginsem a vytvořili spolu příběh o minulosti, která se vrací jako bumerang, o minulosti, která vám udělá z mozku led, z kůže struhadlo a z duše černou díru.

Introducing Philosophy - Dave Robinson
Philosophers have always enjoyed asking awkward and provocative questions, such as: What is the nature of reality? What are human beings really like? What is special about the human mind and consciousness? Are we free to choose who we are and what we do? Can we prove that God exists? Can we be certain about anything at all? What is truth? Does language provide us with a true picture of the world? How should we behave towards each other? Do computers think? “Introducing Philosophy” is a comprehensive graphic guide to the thinking of all the significant philosophers of the Western world from Heraclitus to Derrida. It examines and explains their key arguments and ideas without being obscure or solemn. Lively and accessible, it is the perfect introduction to philosophers and philosophical ideas for anyone coming to the subject for the first time. Dave Robinson has taught philosophy for many years and is the author of numerous Introducing titles including the best-selling Ethics.

Introducing Psychoanalysis - Ivan Ward
INTRODUCING guide to the history and theory of the still controversial ‘speaking cure’. The ideas of psychoanalysis have permeated Western culture. It is the dominant paradigm through which we understand our emotional lives, and Freud still finds himself an iconic figure. Yet despite the constant stream of anti-Freud literature, little is known about contemporary psychoanalysis. Introducing Psychoanalysis redresses the balance. It introduces psychoanalysis as a unified ‘theory of the unconscious’ with a variety of different theoretical and therapeutic approaches, explains some of the strange ways in which psychoanalysts think about the mind, and is one of the few books to connect psychoanalysis to everyday life and common understanding of the world. How do psychoanalysts conceptualize the mind? Why was Freud so interested in sex? Is psychoanalysis a science? How does analysis work? In answering these questions, this book offers new insights into the nature of psychoanalytic theory and original ways of describing therapeutic practice. The theory comes alive through Oscar Zarate’s insightful and daring illustrations, which enlighten the text. In demystifying and explaining psychoanalysis, this book will be of interest to students, teachers and the general public. Ivan Ward has a background in social sciences and anthropology. He is a lecturer at the London Guildhall University and the Director of Education at the Freud Museum, London Oscar Zarate is one of the UK’s leading graphic artists. He has illustrated numerous Introducing titles. His graphic novel A Small Killing won the Will Eisner Prize.

Introducing Quantum Theory - Oscar Zarate, Joseph McEvoy
Quantum theory confronts us with bizarre paradoxes which contradict the logic of classical physics. At the subatomic level, one particle seems to know what the others are doing, and according to Heisenberg’s “uncertainty principle”, there is a limit on how accurately nature can be observed. And yet the theory is amazingly accurate and widely applied, explaining all of chemistry and most of physics. “Introducing Quantum Theory” takes us on a step-by-step tour with the key figures, including Planck, Einstein, Bohr, Heisenberg and Schrodinger. Each contributed at least one crucial concept to the theory. The puzzle of the wave-particle duality is here, along with descriptions of the two questions raised against Bohr’s “Copenhagen Interpretation” – the famous “dead and alive cat” and the EPR paradox. Both remain unresolved. J.P. McEvoy is a former research scientist and now a science journalist. Oscar Zarate is a highly acclaimed graphic artist who has illustrated many Introducing titles. His prize-winning graphic novel A Small Killing is known throughout the world.

Introducing Ethics - Dave Robinson
What is the place of individual choice and consequence in a post-Holocaust world of continuing genocidal ethnic cleansing? Is “identity” now a last-ditch cultural defence of ethnic nationalisms and competing fundamentalisms? In a climate of instant information, free markets and possible ecological disaster, how do we define “rights”, self-interest and civic duties? What are the acceptable limits of scientific investigation and genetic engineering, the rights and wrongs of animal rights, euthanasia and civil disobedience?”Introducing Ethics” confronts these dilemmas, tracing the arguments of the great moral thinkers, including Socrates, Plato, Aristotle, Hobbes and Kant, and brings us up to date with postmodern critics. Dave Robinson has taught philosophy for many years and is the author of numerous Introducing titles. Chris Garratt is the cartoonist behind the legendary Biff comic strip in the Guardian.

Introducing Melanie Klein - R. D. Hinshelwood, Susan Robinson
INTRODUCING guide to the pioneering child psychoanalyst. Born in Vienna in 1882, Melanie Klein became a pioneer in child psychoanalysis and developed several ground-breaking concepts about the nature and crucial importance of the early stages of infantile development. Although she was a devoted Freudian, many of her ideas were seen within the psychoanalytic movement as highly controversial, and this led to heated conflicts, particularly with Freud''s daughter, Anna. Introducing Melanie Klein brilliantly explains Klein''s ideas, and shows the importance of her startling discoveries which raised such opposition at the time and are only now being recognized for their explanatory power. Her concepts of the depressive position and the paranoid-schizoid position are now in common usage and her work has to be taken seriously by psychoanalysts the world over. She is also now important in many academic fields within the human sciences.

Introducing Museum Studies - Gordon Fyfe
Introducing Museum Studies is the first introductory textbook for museum studies. Providing a wide-ranging and original overview of museums from a historical and contemporary perspective, it covers key topics such as the history of the museum, the museum as a public space, visitors, and communities.  The book shows how museums, far from being neutral collections, exhibit objects which convey powerful symbolic meanings. This “cultural turn†away from the object as a thing in itself has placed museums at the centre of debates about public culture, citizenship, inclusion and repatriation. Museums are becoming increasingly reflexive given the awareness of the social and political role they serve and their ability to reflect the problems of our time. Gordon Fyfe shows how and why this reflexivity creates a need for historical perspective on current practices: on the one hand museums are enmeshed in a changing world and on the other hand they exhibit change. At their best, museums help us to see that everything is on the move and that change is the natural order of things. Accessibly written, this is the go-to introduction for scholars and students of museum studies, arts and cultural management, and heritage studies.

Introducing Pragmatics in Use - O'Keeffe Anne, Svenja Adolphs, Brian Clancy
Introducing Pragmatics in Use is a lively and accessible introduction to pragmatics which both covers theory and applies it to real spoken and written data. This textbook systematically draws on a number of different language corpora and the corresponding software applications. Its primary focus is the application of a corpus methodology in order to examine core component areas such as deixis, politeness, speech acts, language variation and register. The main goal of the book is to contextualise pragmatics in the study of language through the analysis of different language contexts provided by spoken and written corpora.Substantially revised and updated, this second edition covers a wider range of topics, corpora and software packages. It consistently demonstrates the benefits of innovative analytical synergies and extends this to how corpus pragmatics can be further blended with, for example, conversation analysis or variational pragmatics. The second edition also offers a new chapter specifically dedicated to corpus pragmatics which proposes a framework for both form-to-function and function-to-form approaches. The book also addresses the – sometimes thorny – area of the integration of the teaching of pragmatics into the language classroom. All chapters in the second edition include a number of cohesive, step-by-step tasks that can be done in small groups in class or can be used as self-study resources. A wide range of illustrative language samples drawn from a number of English language corpora, coupled with instructive tasks and annotated further reading sections, make this an ideal textbook for advanced undergraduate or postgraduate students of pragmatics, discourse analysis and corpus linguistics within applied languages / linguistics or TESOL programmes.
