UNIX for OpenVMS Users, 3E, makes it easy to see what OpenVMS and UNIX have in common, and to transfer your knowledge and experience in OpenVMS over to the world of UNIX. Since most shops rely on more than one operating system, it is critical for system administrators and managers to understand the similarities and differences between platforms, so they can easily work in both environments while taking full advantage of the tools and applications available on each. This book offers OpenVMS professionals a concise source of information, so that they can quickly bring their expertise to bear on UNIX file management, e-mail, networking, and security. This new edition of the book is enhanced with updated references to VMS, incorporates suggestions made by readers of previous editions, and particularly, recognizes other UNIX implementations in addition to HP's Tru64. - Includes extensive additions to the sections on VMS logical names, on the emacs editor, and on shell programming and Perl - Describes the interfaces common to both operating systems, with appendices covering command and editor summaries - Adds emphasis on Linux

Science and the Word of God: this book looks at the commonalities between scientific discovery and the Word of God and takes the view that the relationship is symbiotic. This work does not attempt to explain the miraculous because by definition, a miracle is unexplainable and welcome event that can only be attributed to a higher authority. This work does, however, point out several instances where the Bible was way ahead of science. It also focuses on biblical stories that were once deemed folklore but now receive serious consideration by intellectuals. It also explores the depths doubters will go to in an effort to discredit the Bible and also the suggestion that unbelief might actually require more faith than believing in God. This book also looks at the credibility damage created by the over-zealous believer, and the fact that many renowned scientists have attributed many occurrences to divine intervention.

This book takes a tongue in the cheek look at American cultural acceptance and immigration. And, how these are affected by economics, changing ideologies and fear of the unknown.

Structural Bioinformatics was the first major effort to show the application of the principles and basic knowledge of the larger field of bioinformatics to questions focusing on macromolecular structure, such as the prediction of protein structure and how proteins carry out cellular functions, and how the application of bioinformatics to these life science issues can improve healthcare by accelerating drug discovery and development. Designed primarily as a reference, the first edition nevertheless saw widespread use as a textbook in graduate and undergraduate university courses dealing with the theories and associated algorithms, resources, and tools used in the analysis, prediction, and theoretical underpinnings of DNA, RNA, and proteins. This new edition contains not only thorough updates of the advances in structural bioinformatics since publication of the first edition, but also features eleven new chapters dealing with frontier areas of high scientific impact, including: sampling and search techniques; use of mass spectrometry; genome functional annotation; and much more. Offering detailed coverage for practitioners while remaining accessible to the novice, Structural Bioinformatics, Second Edition is a valuable resource and an excellent textbook for a range of readers in the bioinformatics and advanced biology fields. Praise for the previous edition: "This book is a gold mine of fundamental and practical information in an area not previously well represented in book form."--Biochemistry and Molecular Education " ... destined to become a classic reference work for workers at all levels in structural bioinformatics ... recommended with great enthusiasm for educators, researchers, and graduate students." --BAMBED " ... a useful and timely summary of a rapidly expanding field." --Nature Structural Biology " ... a terrific job in this timely creation of a compilation of articles that appropriately addresses this issue." --Briefings in Bioinformatics.
