The quality of life for millions of people all over the globe has been improved by the work of diligent biologists and doctors working in the many branches of life science. An improved knowledge of how the body functions at the genetic, cellular, physiological and behavioural levels and a greater understanding of disease and pharmacology have resulted in a reduction in human suffering. The way is being paved for the effective treatment of some of the greatest health problems of the late twentieth century -- cancer, AIDS and diseases caused by parasites.

These two volumes are collections of the Nobel Lectures delivered by the laureates, together with their biographies, portraits and the presentation speeches for the periods 1971 - 1980 and 1981 - 1990 respectively. Each Nobel Lecture is based on the work for which the laureate was awarded the prize. New biographical data of the laureate are also included. These volumes of inspiring lectures by outstanding scientists should be on the bookshelf of every keen student, teacher and professor of biological and medical sciences as well as of those in related fields.

During the period 1971 - 1980 important areas of research being recognized were as diverse as hormone action and radioimmunoassays, infectious diseases, molecular genetics, immunology, computerized tomography and social behaviour. The laureates according to the specific year are:

(1971) E W SUTHERLAND JR -- for his discoveries concerning the mechanisms of the action of hormones; (1972) G M EDELMAN & R R PORTER -- for their discoveries concerning the chemical structure of antibodies; (1973) K VON FRISCH, K LORENZ & N TINBERGEN -- for their discoveries concerning organization and elicitation of individual and social behaviour patterns; (1974) A CLAUDE, C DE DUVE & G E PALADE -- for their discoveries concerning the structural and functional organization of the cell; (1975) D BALTIMORE, R DULBECCO & H M TEMIN -- for their discoveries concerning the interaction between tumour viruses and genetic material of the cell; (1976) B S BLUMBERG & D C GAJDUSEK -- for their discoveries concerning new mechanisms for the origin and dissemination of infectious diseases; (1977) R GUILLEMIN & A V SCHALLY -- for their discoveries concerning the peptide hormone production of the brain; and R S YALOW -- for the development of radioimmunoassays of peptide hormones; (1978) W ARBER, D NATHANS & H O SMITH -- for the discovery of restriction enzymes and their application to problems of molecular genetics; (1979) A M CORMACK & G N HOUNSFIELD -- for the development of computer assisted tomography; (1980) B BENACERRAF, J DAUSSET & G D SNELL -- for their discoveries concerning genetically determined structures on the cell surface that regulate immunological reactions.

Awesome quality glow balls
Color: I) 8-Pack (2.5" Balls)
I have bought every glow ball on amazon many times over for my german shepherds. My longest lasting balls have been the chuck-it, they seem to glow longer and not get destroyed but are expensive. These glow balls are our new favorite and not only because of the low price. They hold a good glow longer are heavy duty and fit the chuck-it thrower perfectly. I am stocking up on these. Shipping was also next day so it's 100% buy on these.

Glow in the Dark Balls
Color: 2-Pack (3" Balls)
These balls are ok, not great. The reason they didn’t receive 5 stars is because they are hard/stiff, harder to throw & heavier than the the “Chuck It” glow in the dark balls. They did not hold up to heavy chewers as well as the aforementioned balls.

Wonderful outdoor fetch ball!
Theme: 2 Pack, Size: Medium
This medium sized Chuckit is perfect for my 21 lb dog. It's great for outdoor play. I needed to find an alternative to tennis balls because my pup tears up their outside material. With this ball she can easily play fetch and run around. It's easy for her to grab onto and does not impede her breathing. It's seems sturdy and quite flexible. The medium is perfect for her size.

Great Ball for training Labs
Theme: 2 Pack, Size: Medium
This is my 80lb Lab's favorite fetch toy. We workout for 45 min to 2 hr every night that's dry enough (in San Antonio it's standard conditions). When I first saw the ball I almost returned it thinking it'd tear apart very quickly. That proved to not be the case. I've used it nightly for the last 3 weeks or so without any signs of tearing. It has a very good glow for night play. Some may consider it small for a lab, but when playing very aggressive catch it's our ball of choice. We work on catching, chasing, tracking, reflexes.. this ball's perfect for that. The more solid, 3.5 in + balls are simply too much and I'm afraid they could hurt the dog during aggressive play.
