Modeling Dose-Response Microarray Data in Early Drug Development Experiments Using R

In the late 20th century, South Africa was the focal point of the one of the most contentious political struggles of the post-colonial era. Now a generation removed from the end of apartheid, the country has established a democratic political system, while at the same time grappling with the major issues of the 21st century, including globalization, economic inequality, regional conflicts, and climate change. This narrative has often been told through the lens of the colonial era, with a heavy emphasis on the political context. The Oxford Handbook of South African History tells this story by cultivating new directions in scholarship that continue to revise how we understand the South African past. Scholars and students in this field have pushed for a history of the country that is more open to new voices, and more receptive to those who have been the most affected by the rapid changes in the last few decades. Thus, rather than providing a standard chronological history, the Handbook's

In 1815, the Russian vessel Rurik set off on a three-year voyage through the Pacific and Arctic oceans in a quest to find the world's most elusive geographic feature, the Northwest Passage. Financed by a wealthy Russian count and commanded by a fame-seeking captain, the vessel carried four extraordinary observers of the natural world, including an Indigenous navigator from the Caroline Islands named Kadu. The Rurik failed in its mission, yet, as award-winning Pacific historian David Igler masterfully demonstrates, the crew's pursuit of "natural history" throughout the voyage and during its decades-long afterlife embodied a search for knowledge through science, artistic representation, and oral tradition. Failure to achieve a great discovery was common in the great age of scientific voyaging, but explorers, natural philosophers, and traveling artists grew adept at turning their explorations into documented achievements by claiming, publishing, and promoting a range of significant findin
