Helix, who has got wheels in place of his back legs, is ready to do the monkey bars. "Just swing towards the next bar, grab it with your hand, and don't forget to let go of the bar behind you so you can swing forward again," explains his friend because Helix is trying it for the first time. Helix starts swinging but falls and breaks his wheels. He gets upset but Mr. Torty's idea of getting suggestions from the class to fix Helix's wheels cheers him up. All his friends suggest interesting ideas but again Herman's idea saves the day. This is the third book in the Helix series of books. This book teaches children to be kind and helping towards others and to be self-confident, brave and determined. There are character pages at the end of the story about each student of Helix's class. Each one of them is a different species of tortoise that is described in a creative and fun way. There is even a page that documents the true story of Helix. This series discusses social-emotional learning standards, through an enjoyable story of an adorable tortoise.

A comprehensive collection of the applications of Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR), Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) and Electron-Spin Resonance (ESR). Covers the wide ranging disciplines in which these techniques are used: * Chemistry; * Biological Sciences; * Pharmaceutical Sciences; * Medical uses; * Marine Science; * Materials Science; * Food Science. Illustrates many techniques through the applications described, e.g.: * High resolution solid and liquid state NMR; * Low resolution NMR, especially important in food science; * Solution State NMR, especially important in pharmaceutical sciences; * Magnetic Resonance Imaging, especially important for medical uses; * Electron Spin Resonance, especially important for spin-labelling in food, marine and medical studies.

This book describes modern biophysical techniques that enable us to understand and examine dynamic processes of infection at the molecular level. Cutting-edge research articles, laboratory protocols, case studies and up-to-date reviews cover topics such as single-molecule observation of DNA replication repair pathways in E. coli; evolution of drug resistance in bacteria; restriction enzymes as barriers to horizontal gene transfer in Staphylococcus aureus; infectious and bacterial pathogen biofilms; killing infectious pathogens through DNA damage; bacterial surfaces in host-pathogen interactions; bacterial gene regulation by riboswitches; transcription regulation in enterobacterial pathogens; the bacterial flagellar motor; initial surface colonization by bacteria; Salmonella Typhi host restrictions; as well as monitoring proton motive force in bacteria; microbial pathogens using digital holography; mathematical modelling of microbial pathogen motility; neutron reflectivity in studying bacterial membranes; force spectroscopy in studying infection and 4D multi-photon imaging to investigate immune responses. The focus is on the development and application of complex techniques and protocols at the interface of life sciences and physics, which increase the physiological relevance of biophysical investigations.
