Early Earth
August 2006, Vol. 2, No. 4
The earliest Earth was a strange inhospitable world, yet transitions occurred culminating in the evolution of life within the first billion years. The preservation of a sparse and ambiguous rock record has encouraged debate. Recent studies have greatly refined the nature and timing of key events. This issue reviews current knowledge of the age of the Earth, massive meteorite impacts, the atmosphere and hydrosphere, the rock record, and the emergence of life.

Medical Mineralogy And Geochemistry, December 2007, Vol. 3, No. 6
$20.00Medical mineralogy and geochemistry is an emergent, highly interdisciplinary field concerned with both normal and pathological interactions between minerals or amorphous inorganic solids and biomolecules or cells within the human body, and the transport and fate of prions and protein toxins in the soil environment. Prior research has, appropriately, focused on the complex genetic and molecular biological aspects, but there is a growing recognition of the vital need for understanding the surface and bulk properties and reactivities, especially at the challenging nanoscale characteristic of biomacromolecules and biominerals.
