The biological sciences cover a broad array of literature types, from younger fields like molecular biology with its reliance on recent journal articles, genomic databases, and protocol manuals to classic fields such as taxonomy with its scattered literature found in monographs and journals from the past three centuries. Using the Biological Literature: A Practical Guide, Fourth Edition is an annotated guide to selected resources in the biological sciences, presenting a wide-ranging list of important sources. This completely revised edition contains numerous new resources and descriptions of all entries including textbooks. The guide emphasizes current materials in the English language and includes retrospective references for historical perspective and to provide access to the taxonomic literature. It covers both print and electronic resources including monographs, journals, databases, indexes and abstracting tools, websites, and associations—providing users with listings of authoritative informational resources of both classical and recently published works. With chapters devoted to each of the main fields in the basic biological sciences, this book offers a guide to the best and most up-to-date resources in biology. It is appropriate for anyone interested in searching the biological literature, from undergraduate students to faculty, researchers, and librarians. The guide includes a supplementary website dedicated to keeping URLs of electronic and web-based resources up to date, a popular feature continued from the third edition.

…A hard dialectical conversation between a Clinician in Practical Oncology and a Theoretician of the Philosophical Onccologicum… …It is Pragmatism versus Idealism, or the battlefield between the Physician of the Hippocratic Oath and the Metaphysician of the Platonic Eidos... Why this title or belittled through the apparently same term in Oncology, but written into a dissimilarity form, Onccology-Onkkologie? Is it a confrontation between English terminology and the German one? Or a synthesis between the two like in Denglish? Could be this terrible human tumor defeated through a counter tumor? Tumor cell to be annihilated through an Anti-tumor Cell? A cancer cell defeated through an anti-tumor Cell? Could the classical concept to give birth to the anti-concept? Alternatively, classical terminology to give birth to anti-terminology? …to such questions, our endeavor book is trying to give an answer, at least in a theoretical form and expression… Onccologist & Onkkologist
