It takes a certain kind of soldier to become a sniper. Hands as skilled and steady as a surgeon, eyes as sharp as a hawk’s. A sniper must be able to kill another man with cold-blooded calculation. Ed Kugler was just such a soldier. Stone cold deadly with an M-14, he was tapped to become a sniper in the 4th Marine Regiment in Vietnam. From a stint with Force Recon, he would soon lead a team of five snipers who worked the rugged Co Bi-Than Tan Valley. Called the Rogues, his team would leave a trail of fear and death throughout VC and NVA territory. Dead Center tells the story of Kugler and his team, dramatically from Midwest schoolboy to Marine sniper to one of the NVA’s "Most Wanted." Loaded with first hand accounts of sniper action and evasion, this account vividly relates the grueling training and curshing tension of missions, offering the most complete picture yet of this solitary service.

Free Download Handbook of Marine Natural Products By John Blunt, John Buckingham, Murray Munro (auth.), Ernesto Fattorusso, William H. Gerwick, Orazio Taglialatela-Scafati (eds.)
2012 | 1452 Pages | ISBN: 9048138337 | PDF | 27 MB
"Handbook of Marine Natural Products" takes a fresh approach to describing the major themes of research in this rapidly developing field. This two volume reference work begins with a section that provides a taxonomic survey of the secondary metabolites of diverse marine life including microbes, algae, and invertebrates. This is followed by a demonstration of the techniques and strategies employed in modern structure elucidation of complex natural products. The natural roles of marine natural products are then explored in a series of focused chapters which include the topics of symbiosis, anti-predation and antifouling, chemical interactions, and defence against UV stress. Various routes which facilitate the understanding of marine natural product biosynthesis are subsequently explained and these are followed by an extensive set of chapters on the biomedical potential of marine natural products. The latter portion of this section considers the technologies and scientific disciplines necessary for advancing bioactive marine natural product lead compounds into actual pharmaceuticals. The reference work finishes with a selection of chapters describing marine toxins and their impact on public health and seafood resources. Final thoughts presented at the end of the second volume focus on the future of this field of investigation and discovery research.This publication is presented as a reference handbook and general concepts are emphasized and illustrated with numerous interesting examples, graphical information, and a comprehensive index. "Handbook of Marine Natural Products" introduces students who are at advanced undergraduate and entry graduate student levels to this fascinating multidisciplinary field. It is an ideal desk companion for courses focusing on this contemporary area.
