Major additions in the areas of DNA replication and DNA and RNA viruses are sure to attract some attention. Students who took Nat Sci 5 or Bio 2 or any other introductory biology course before this year and think they learned about DNA replication in those classes will be surprised by Watson's new chapter on DNA duplication. DNA replication is often presented as the unwinding and subsequent rewinding of linear complementary ploy-nucleotide strands of DNA.

When people have been deaf since birth, they often cannot reproduce speech because they have never heard sounds.

Soon to be used to teach children at a state school for the deaf, the machine features a display board containing 40 vertical rows of twelve lights each. Words spoken by a teacher into a microphone are converted into lights that march across the board from right to left, forming...

Nothing could have saved Anderson's platitudinous script, but Douglas makes an admirable try. He manages to transform a wholly unsympathetic curmudgeon into an object of reluctant but genuine sympathy. Without his seasoned wizardry, Father would be nothing more than matinee melodrama presented by your favorite bio-nondegradable detergent...
