BOOK REVIEW?
Behaviour of Micro 1973. $19.50.
Organisms.
Edited by -4. PEREZ-MIRAVETE. 301 pp.
Plenum.
THIS is based on the Proceedings of the 10th International Congress of Microbiology held in Mexico City in 1970. The section headings are: Chemotaxis and chemotropism; Phototaxis; Roll of the cell membrane in behaviour of paramesium; Amoeboid movement and behaviour ; Flagella and cilia; Habituation and other behaviour modifications ; Biological clocks. It is an interesting account of the cellular basis of behaviour.
Amniotic Fluid. Research and Clinical Application. Edited by D. V. I. FAIRWEATHER & T. K. A. B. ESKES. 343 pp. American Elsevier. 1973. $31.00. THIS volume, with contributions by twenty-five different authors, presents an up-to-date summary of most aspects of research on amniotic fluid, and its clinical application. This includes the origin and circulation of the amniotic fluid; amniocentesis; biochemical studies on amniotic fluid; hormones; enzymes; prostaglandins ; gas tensions and embolism.
Contemporary Topics in Molecular Immunology. & W. J. MANDY. 276 pp. Plenum. 1973. $16.50.
