Curiosity Kills


Book Description

Inexperience will get this new werewolf killed! Sara Flores had saved five lives in the year since she was turned — so she wasn’t worried about rescuing a student hacker hiding from goons. Boy, was she wrong! Her “make it up as you go” strategy isn’t working against an enemy with $ billions and no qualms whatsoever about killing to make problems disappear. Against all that, she’s one semi-self-trained woman armed only with two guns, a big honking knife and 42 very sharp canine teeth. Worse -- Sara likes the college kid. His only workout before was typing keys on a computer, but now... he’s trying his best to help. He doesn’t deserve to join her in an unmarked dirt grave in the desert outside of Tulsa. It’s time to pull on her big-girl pants and show these evildoers just who is the big bad wolf in town. "This girl doesn't mess around -- the more I read the more I want!" --The International Review of Books "Refreshingly original! Sara reminds me of Jane Yellowrock -- strong, mysterious, loyal and a loner." -- MJ Silversmith, Discovery

This concise yet in-depth guide takes you inside scope and closures, two core concepts you need to know to become a more efficient and effective JavaScript programmer. You’ll learn how and why they work, and how an understanding of closures can be a powerful part of your development skillset. Like other books in the "You Don’t Know JS" series, Scope and Closures dives into trickier parts of the language that many JavaScript programmers simply avoid. Armed with this knowledge, you can achieve true JavaScript mastery. Learn about scope, a set of rules to help JavaScript engines locate variables in your code Go deeper into nested scope, a series of containers for variables and functions Explore function- and block-based scope, “hoisting”, and the patterns and benefits of scope-based hiding Discover how to use closures for synchronous and asynchronous tasks, including the creation of JavaScript libraries

Alphaherpesviruses


Book Description

Alphaherpesviruses are a fascinating group of DNA viruses that includes important human pathogens such as herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1), HSV-2, and varicella-zoster virus (VZV): the causative agents of cold sores, genital ulcerous disease, and chickenpox/shingles, respectively. A key attribute of these viruses is their ability to establish lifelong latent infection in the peripheral nervous system of the host. Such persistence requires subversion of the host's immune system and intrinsic antiviral defense mechanisms. Understanding the mechanisms of the immune evasion and what triggers viral reactivation is a major challenge for today's researchers. This has prompted enormous research efforts into understanding the molecular and cellular biology of these viruses. This up-to-date and comprehensive volume aims to distill the most important research in this area providing a timely overview of the field. Topics covered include: transcriptional regulation, DNA replication, translational control, virus entry and capsid assembly, the role of microRNAs in infection and oncolytic vectors for cancer therapy. In addition there is coverage of virus-host interactions, including apoptosis, subversion of host protein quality control and DNA damage response pathways, autophagy, establishment and reactivation from latency, interferon responses, immunity and vaccine development. Essential reading for everyone working with alphaherpesviruses and of interest to all virologists working on latent infections.
