Praise for the Serial
"The book provides superb reading material which chemists and pharmacologists interested in the area of chemotherapy will surely enjoy reading."
--JOURNAL OF PHARMACEUTICAL SCIENCES
During the past 50 years, many chemicals of either synthetic or natural origin have been successfully used in the treatment of cancer. Most, if not all, of these drugs were developed empirically based on their antitumor activities in vitro and in vivo . Studies of topoisomerases as antitumor drug targets have been particularly intensive over the past decade. This is in part due to the recent identification of topoisomerases as the molecular targets for many antitumor drugs. New and improved therapies for cancer are being developed through studies of these novel drugs.
This book will be a long-lasting reference for students and researchers of pharmacology, toxicology, molecular biology, oncology, and infectious diseases.
LEROY F. LIU serves as the Chair and Professor in the Department of Pharmacology at the Robert Wood Johnson Medical School in Piscataway, New Jersey. Dr. Liu earned his B.S. in Chemistry at the National Taiwan University in 1971. He attended the University of California, Berkeley, and received his doctorate in Biophysical Chemistry in 1977. Liu has also held various teaching positions, including Visiting Professor at Academic Sinica in Taiwan and both Assistant and Associate Professor at the Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine.
A Searle Scholar (1981-1984), Liu was awarded the American Chemical Society Faculty Research Award (1985-1990) and the George H. Hitchings Award for Innovative Drug Design in 1989. Dr. Liu's research interests include Topoisomerases in DNA structure and function, DNA damage and repair, and cancer biology and pharmacology. Along with this contribution to Advances in Pharmacology , Liu has written more than 100 scientific articles.

Gr 7-12-- A straightforward, no-nonsense introduction to the scope and sequence of U. S. involvement in World War II. Events are covered chronologically from the attack on military installations in Hawaii to the Japanese surrender. The black-and-white photographs vary in quality, size, and familiarity and are presented in a workable layout that balances the readable text with the accompanying visuals. A helpful listing of ``Memorable Dates, 1933-1946'' is included, along with a good two-part bibliography that lists further reading. There is nothing exceptional here, but the book does provide the bare-bones details and facts. It may serve as a good starting point for students wishing to learn more about the subject. --David A.

Gr. 4-8. With such arresting photos as the one of a kamikaze plane diving near an American escort carrier, the eerie scene of a blacked-out London illuminated by raging fires, and the quietly telling shot of American children boarding a horse-drawn--as opposed to horsepowered--school bus, this photo history draws readers into the major events of World War II. The wealth of thoughtfully selected visuals is accompanied by brief but pithy chapters that not only incorporate eyewitness accounts and cameos of personal heroism (including the contributions of minorities and women in the U.S. armed services), but also describe major European and Pacific battles, discuss the U-boat threat, and tell of the Holocaust and the atomic bomb. In addition, Sullivan makes clear the impact of the war on the U.S. homefront. Unfortunately, the paper binding won't hold up to the popularity and hard use the book prob~ably faces. ~--Ellen Mandel
