DIFFERENTIATION WAVES

Dear Colleague:

I am finishing a book about the intersection of three major fields of biology:

Gordon, R. (1995). The Hierarchical Genome and Differentiation Waves: Novel Unification of Development, Genetics, and Evolution (Singapore: World Scientific), in prep.

If your work might be relevant to this review, I would appreciate reprints or preprints as soon as possible, or an update, if I've been in contact with you previously.

If you are curious, condensed accounts are given in:

Gordon, R. (1993). The fractal physics of biological evolution. In: Beysens, D., N. Boccara & G. Forgacs, eds. Dynamical Phenomena at Interfaces, Surfaces and Membranes. Commack, N.Y.: NOVA Science Publishers, 99-111.

Gordon, R., N. K. Bjorklund & P. D. Nieuwkoop (1994). Dialogue on embryonic induction and differentiation waves. Int. Rev. Cytol. 150, 373-420.

Bjorklund, N.K. & R. Gordon (1994). Surface contraction and expansion waves correlated with differentiation in axolotl embryos. I. Prolegomenon and differentiation during invagination through the blastopore, as shown by the fate map. Computers & Chemistry, in press.

Thanks for your help.

Best regards, -Dick Gordon
