How to Design and Build a Home Workshop

by David X. Manners (1969)

About this book

This little book is one of those mass produced, cheaply made trade paperbacks that sold in supermarkets or through the mail. You know the kind...small format, acid pulp paper that turns brown, and poorly done b/w photos and line drawings. Even so, it's packed with information for the novice and beginning woodworker who wants to put his/her dream shop together. The reader is walked through the basics, from choosing a shop location, to planning and building the shop, to putting together such necessities as workbenches. Many of the short chapters appear to have been taken directly from the pages of old Popular Science magazines. The best feature is the suggested offerings for various shop layouts. The ideas are not detailed, but helpful in forming general plans.

Henry F. Epstein and Stewart Wolf

The present volume contains the edited transcript of a colloquium sponsored by the Muscular Dystrophy Association and held at Mountain Shadows Inn, Scottsdale, Arizona, December 14-16, 1981. The participants, geneticists, molecular biologists, biochemists and clinicians, explored in open dialogue ways and means of identifying and characterizing the genetic alterations responsible for X-linked muscular dystrophies, especially the Duchene type. The clinicians, who urged the use of properly diagnosed and documented case material for study, emphasized the troublesome fact that the primary phenotypic expression of the gene (or genes) involved in the muscular dystrophies is yet to be identified. Discussions centered on the applicability of recent methodological advances in DNA chemistry and molecular biology, cytogenetics and cell biology to mapping the X chromosome. Despite ignorance of the basic disorder in the muscular dystrophies, DNA technologies and chromosome mapping strategies for the discovery of genetic defects and phenotypic expressions were proposed. Beyond its stimulating intellectual exchange, the colloquium yielded important benefits. The participants agreed to share needed cell lines and endonuclease restriction enzymes and to organize interlaboratory communication and collaborative efforts to accelerate progress in the quest for the genetic lesion in Duchenne muscular dystrophy.
