Das Begleitbuch zur gleichnamigen ZDF-Dokumentation: Vor 65 Millionen Jahren setzte ein Asteroideneinschlag den Dinosauriern ein Ende. Was wäre, wenn ein solcher "Dinokiller" heute auf der Erde einschlagen würde? Das Buch beschreibt die unmittelbaren Folgen bis hin zu den langfristigen Veränderungen für Mensch, Tier- und Pflanze. Verständlich und anschaulich, aber dennoch wissenschaftlich fundiert, gibt es einen Einblick in die Erkenntnisse über die Folgen.

The physics of scale-invariant and complex systems is a novel interdisciplinary field. Its ideas allow us to look at natural phenomena in a radically new and original way, eventually leading to unifying concepts independent of the detailed structure of the systems.

Animal cell technology is a growing discipline of cell biology which aims not only to understand structures, functions and behaviors of differentiated animal cells, but also to ascertain their abilities to be used for industrial and medical purposes.

Distinguished researchers and clinicians review the biological and biomedical aspects of gasotransmitters, emphasizing signaling transduction mechanisms in general, and ion channel regulation in particular. The authors discuss the endogeneous metabolism and regulation of gasotransmitters, their toxicological profiles and biological actions, and their interactions in terms of their production and effects.
