Paperback. Condition: New. Bringing together fiction from some of the city's most celebrated writers, The Book of Liverpool traces the unique contours that decades of social and economic change can impress on a city. Set against key historical moments from the Second World War to the Capital of Culture year, these stories question what 'belonging' and 'home' mean in the Liverpudlian context, from the regenerated city centre to satellite suburbs, from the sparring cathedrals to the no-go concrete housing estates. Liverpool emerges in these short stories as a city in constant flux: haunted by ghosts, buoyed up by myths, and shifting with an ebb and flow like the Mersey itself.

Add to basketDecorative Boards. Condition: Very Good/Fine. First Edition. During the past decade, our insight into cell structure and function has improved rapidly in a large number of fields. Consequently, advances in many areas of cell and molecular biology are starting to reveal how at least some aspects of cell behaviour might be controlled. As our knowledge increases, unifying themes emerge which help to enrich our understanding of the more complex issues of cell differentiation. To celebrate its Golden Jubilee, Unilever Research brought together scientists from a variety of fields, which might not otherwise have met, in order to discuss differentiation. In this symposium volume, areas of intense current interest in cell and molecular biology are represented. The topics covered include the cytoskeleton and peri-cellular matric, endocytosis, the co-ordinating roles of cyclic AMP and calcium, the control of growth and differentiation in vitro, the organisation and control of genes, and aspects of mammalian and insect development. In addition to the reviews and papers given by leading contributors in each field, it contains an introductory addresss by Sydney Brenner and an open discussion on the nature of differentiation. This volume brings together detailed studies from a number of different fields and should prove of great interest to molecular, cell and developmental biologists and to geneticists. Illustrated. Illustrated laminated boards. Previous owners name to inside cover. Top corners of book very slightly bumped. Bottom corners of book very slightly worn.

Draft script for the 1973 film. With a single notation to the title page in manuscript ink, indicating this copy is from Barry Levinson. Based on the 1955 novel "Le Blockhaus" by Jean-Paul Clebert, the story follows a mixed-group of forced laborers held by German forces taking shelter in a German bunker on D-Day. However, due to the heavy shelling, they are entombed in the blockhouse. Fortunately it is a storehouse as well so the prisoners have food to last them for years, but unfortunately they are permanently trapped in there. The film deals with how they lived in their underground prison and their eventual deaths. Set in Normandy, shot on location in Guernsey, Channel Islands.

Title page present, with credits for screenwriter John Gould, and author Jean-Paul Clebert. 141 leaves, with last page of text numbered 140. Mechanical duplication.
