大卫·古德赛尔（David S. Goodsell） 美国加州斯克里普研究中心（The Scripps Research Institute）分子生物学系教授，当代最为著名的科学插画师之一。 他的作品最令人着迷之处是：利用X射线晶体学技术获得准确的分子结构，然后用水彩画将它们完美地展现出来，使人们获得对分子精微世界的具象认识如此感性而又具有科学的准确性。作为一名分子生物学家，古德赛尔在承袭了欧洲数世纪以来科学绘画的伟大传统的同时，利用现代尖端技术获得分子世界的准确数据，将这些新科学、新技术所揭示的自然存在一一展现在科学家和普罗大众面前。他的著作包括《The Machinery of Life》《Our Molecular Nature》《Bionanotechnology: Lesson from Nature》等。

The Machinery of Life is a journey into the sub-microscopic world of molecular machines. Readers are introduced to the types of molecules built by cells, including proteins, nucleic acids, lipids, and polysaccharides; then, in a series of full-color "watercolor" illustrations, which show a portion of a living cell magnified by 1,000,000 times, the reader is guided through the i...(展开全部)

What does economics have to do with law? Suppose legislators propose that armed robbers receive life imprisonment. Editorial pages applaud them for getting tough on crime. Constitutional lawyers raise the issue of cruel and unusual punishment. Legal philosophers ponder questions of justness. An economist, on the other hand, observes that making the punishment for armed robbery ...(展开全部)

This book argues for a society organized by voluntary cooperation under institutions of private property and exchange with little, ultimately no, government. It describes how the most fundamental functions of government might be replaced by private institutions, with services such as protecting individual rights and settling disputes provided by private firms in a competitive m...(展开全部)

The Robin has now been voted Britain's favourite bird – a friendly presence in thousands of gardens, year round. Its life was hardly understood when David Lack – who has been called Britain's most influential ornithologist – started his scientific observations of robins while a schoolteacher at Dartington. It was Lack who established that robins sing to defend their territory; ...(展开全部)

The Clay Sanskrit Library has recently set out to change the scene by making available well-translated dual-language (English and Sanskrit) editions of popular Sanskritic texts for the public. The Buddhist monk Ashva*ghosha composed Life of the Buddha in the first or second century CE probably in Ayodhya. This is the earliest surviving text of the Sanskrit literary genre called...(展开全部)
