An Analysis of the Research on Sugarcane Yellow Leaf
Not a Disease, a Syndrome
For 30 years, sugarcane yellow leaf (SYL) has been known as a viral disease. After analyzing decades of confusing and contradictory research, the author argues it is a physiological syndrome. This book aims to disentangle the issue and show the truth behind the condition.

How Life Emerges from Inanimate Matter
From Atoms to a Living Individual
This book describes how life emerges from inanimate matter. It analyzes this transition as it occurs in space, from simple particles to individuals; in time, through biological evolution; and in embryonic development, offering a unique, multi-disciplinary analysis of all three.

The Determination of a Lifespan
A 400-Year-Old Shark and a 40,000-Year-Old Plant
Human lifespan differs by as much as 30 years across the world due to factors like meals, disease, and genes. This book clarifies these factors and suggests how to live longer. It also surveys animals and plants living for 10,000 years or longer.

The biological role of heterochromatin, our non-coding DNA, is a mystery. This study of Q-heterochromatin variability in humans reveals that differences are related to environmental factors, not race, and that our ability to adapt to extreme conditions depends on its amount.

Long Non-Coding RNA
From Disease Biomarkers to Targeted Therapeutics
Once dismissed as genomic “noise,” Long non-coding RNAs (LncRNAs) are now known to regulate genes and are involved in diverse diseases like cancer. As their mechanisms are still ambiguous, this book provides a comprehensive account of lncRNA research.

Basic Biology for Born Engineers
Living Mosaics
While the laws of physics rely on calculus, this approach fails for biology. Living things are not continuous; they are discrete and amazingly exact. This book presents a novel view of biology as the science of ‘living mosaics’, made of discrete, yet interacting, ‘tiles’.
