As the country begins the healing process from the 9/11 terrorist strike on the Twin Towers and the Pentagon, Abdullah al-Rahim, alias Peter Ramsey, is busy implementing the deadly al-Qaeda strategic plan to again attack the Pentagon when its reconstruction is completed. Ramsey, abetted by Tracey Morgan, CFO for the Pentagons contractor Synergy, plants his cohorts Luis Ortega and Jacob Brokowski among the reconstruction team. The radicals toil to enact their mayhem on the Pentagon, unaware that Synergys internal security, using hi-tech software had uncovered their suspicious activities. Synergys security director T.J. Rollins notifies Frank Askew at the FBI and learns that the FBI Terrorist Infiltration Program (TIP) had already unearthed the plot and is working on eradicating the terrorist cell and its chain of command. As Askew leads the investigative and arrest process, an unanticipated discovery with potential momentous impact on the free-world unfolds.
Natural Obsessions: Striving to Unlock the Deepest Secrets of the Cancer Cell by Natalie Angier, ISBN 0395924723
As dramatic as The Double Hex and as absorbing as The Soul of a New Machine, Natural Obsessions explores the advanced reaches of molecular biology, the nature of the human cell, and the genes that control cancer. It unforgettably portrays some of the best young scientists in the world, the rewards and discouragements of scientific research, and the very process of scientific inquiry.

Yeast Physiology and Biotechnology by Graeme Walker, ISBN 0471964468
Yeasts are the worlds premier industrial micro-organisms. In addition to their wide exploitation in the production of foods, beverages and pharmaceuticals, yeasts also play significant roles as model eukaryotic cells in furthering our knowledge in the biological and biomedical sciences. In order for modern biotechnology to fully exploit the activities of yeasts, it is essential to appreciate aspects of yeast cell physiology. In recent years, however, our knowledge of yeast physiological phenomena has lagged behind that of yeast genetics and molecular biology. Yeast Physiology and Biotechnology redresses the balance by linking key aspects of yeast physiology with yeast biotechnology. Individual chapters provide broad and timely coverage of yeast cytology, nutrition, growth and metabolism - important aspects of yeast cell physiology which are pertinent to the practical uses of yeasts in industry. The final chapter reviews traditional, modern and emerging biotechnologies in which roles of...
