Neurobiology of Spinal Cord Injury by Robert G. Kalb, ISBN 0896036723
Distinguished researchers review the latest scientific understanding of spinal cord injury (SCI), focusing on the mechanisms causing paralysis after spinal cord trauma, the molecular determinants of neural regeneration, and methods for improving damaged function. The authors examine the role of intracellular Ca2+ in neuronal death, the possibility of spinal learning, growth-promoting molecules for regenerating neurons, and the biochemistry and cell biology of microtubules. Among the treatment possibilities discussed are cell transplantation strategies beyond the use of fetal spinal cord tissue, remyelination in spinal cord demyelination models, high steroid therapy immediately after SCI, and the mixed use of anti- and proinflammatories. Comprehensive and highly promising, Neurobiology of Spinal Cord Injury summarizes and integrates the great progress that has been made in understanding and combating the paralysis that follows spinal cord injury.
Migration, Transnationalization, and Race in a Changing New York by Hector R. Cordero-Guzman, ISBN 1566398886
When you think of American immigration, what images come to mind? Ellis Island. East Side tenements. Pushcarts on Eighth Avenue. Little Italy. Chinatown. El Barrio. New York City has always been central to the immigrant experience in the United States. In the last three decades, the volume of immigration has increased as has the diversity of immigrant origins and experiences. Contemporary immigration conjures up old images but also some new ones: The sweatshops and ethnic neighborhoods are still there, but so are cell phones, faxes, e-mails, and the more intense and multilayered involvement of immigrants in the social, economic, and political life of both home and host societies.
In this ambitious book, nineteen scholars from a broad range of disciplines bring our understanding of New York's immigrant communities up to date by exploring the interaction between economic globalization and transnationalization, demographic change, and the evolving racial, ethnic, and gender dynamics in the...

2000 Nokia Sugar Bowl National Championship: Florida State Seminoles (Full Frame)
In the National Championship game a year before, Florida State was simply outplayed by a talented and determined Tennessee team.
The memory of that defeat drove the Seminoles to a perfect season in 1999 and a match-up with feisty Virginia Tech in the 2000 Nokia Sugar Bowl for the National Championship.
The Hokies, with gifted redshirted freshman quarterback Mike Vick, had the Seminoles down early, but the explosive Florida State offense led a stirring comeback to defeat Virginia Tech 46-29. This DVD contains the complete 2000 Nokia Sugar Bowl game, with coverage from ABC Sports, without commercial interruption. Chapter points on the DVD's main menu allow you to jump directly to the action, quarter by quarter. With this DVD, you are in control of every frame of video and every replay of this championship game where the Florida State Seminoles completed the first perfect season of Coach Bobby Bowden's 34-year career.

Cellular Phones, Public Fears, and a Culture of Precaution by Adam Burgess, ISBN 0521520827
Adam Burgess' study is the first account of the health panic surrounding cellular phones that developed in the mid 1990s. Explaining that the related health anxieties had little substantial basis, Burgess traces the origins of the panic and how and why it grew so significantly in some societies, but not in others. The book also outlines a history and sociology of the cell phone, and compares popular reactions to other technologies, such as x-rays and radar.
