An up-to-date collection of brief monographs and reviews by prominent international contributors which define and hone the blurred boundaries of biotechnology. Divided into three parts, it contains a scientific section offering branches of interest to encourage further exploration. Part two features a selection of individual topics presenting biotechnology from a practical perspective with emphasis on new methods currently of importance. Lastly, it features data on research and education in Europe including other institutions such as Dechema along with market information and profiles of European industries.

The study of stable groups connects model theory, algebraic geometry and group theory. It analyses groups which possess a certain very general dependence relation (Shelah's notion of 'forking'), and tries to derive structural properties from this. These may be group-theoretic (nilpotency or solubility of a given group), algebro-geometric (identification of a group as an algebraic group), or model-theoretic (description of the definable sets). In this book, the general theory of stable groups is developed from the beginning (including a chapter on preliminaries in group theory and model theory), concentrating on the model- and group-theoretic aspects. It brings together the various extensions of the original finite rank theory under a unified perspective and provides a coherent exposition of the knowledge in the field.
