This state-of-the art research Handbook provides a comprehensive, coherent, current synthesis of the empirical and theoretical research concerning teaching and learning in science and lays down a foundation upon which future research can be built. The contributors, all leading experts in their research areas, represent the international and gender diversity that exists in the science education research community. As a whole, the Handbook of Research on Science Education demonstrates that science education is alive and well and illustrates its vitality. It is an essential resource for the entire science education community, including veteran and emerging researchers, university faculty, graduate students, practitioners in the schools, and science education professionals outside of universities. The National Association for Research in Science Teaching (NARST) endorses the Handbook of Research on Science Education as an important and valuable synthesis of the current knowledge in the field of science education by leading individuals in the field.

Recent Progress in Hormone Research presents the proceedings of the 1977 Laurentian Hormone Conference held at Mont Tremblant, Quebec, Canada from August 28 through September 2, 1977. The book discusses the concepts and perspectives of reproductive endocrinology; and the mechanism of action of hypothalamic hormones in the anterior pituitary gland and specific modulation of their activity by sex steroids and thyroid hormones. The text also describes the morphology of insulin secretion and binding; studies on relaxin; and the interrelationships between calcium, calcemic hormones and gastrointestinal hormones; and calcitonin binding sites in bone. The hormonal regulation of bone formation; neural control of ACTH; and the genetic regulation of mammalian glucuronidase are also considered. The book further tackles the crystal structure, molecular conformation, binding, and structure-function relationships of the thyroid hormone; the thyroxine transport proteins of plasma; and the pathways of metabolism of thyroid hormones. Endocrinologists, biochemists, and physiologists will find the text invaluable.

In this Third Volume of the series, Research on Education in Africa, the Caribbean and the Middle East, the volume continues with the previously established overarching purpose of publishing chapters that are based upon research conducted in those regions by scholars, many of whom are indigenous to the regions they write about and are, therefore, able to provide cultural insights about relevant issues, as well as nonindigenous scholars who have conducted their studies in countries within the regions or about those regions. This mixture of indigenous scholarship offering emic perspectives and outside scholarship offering etic perspectives continues to be a relative strength and uniqueness of this book series. In addition, several chapters in the current volume constitute collaborations between the authors etic and emic to the contexts about which they write. This bifocality in the gaze cast upon issues covered in this book series has been well received by readers of earlier volumes of the series.
