    Summary: This book gives an overview of the diverse marine fauna and flora of Japan and includes practical guides for investigating the biology and ecology of marine organisms. Introducing marine training courses offered at a range of Japanese universities, this is the first English textbook intended for marine biology instructors and students in Japan. It provides essential information on experimental procedures for the major areas of marine biology, including cell and developmental biology, physiology, ecology and environmental sciences, and as such is a valuable resource for those in Asian countries that share a similar flora and fauna. It also appeals to visitors interested in attending Japanese marine courses from countries around the world. .

    Patients (125) who had carotid transient ischemic attacks (TIAs) and one or more accessible carotid lesions visualized angiographically had reconstructive operations of the carotid artery and were then randomly assigned to aspirin or placebo treatment. The were followed to determine the incidence of subsecquent TIAs, death, cerebral infarction, or retinal infarction. Life table analysis (for 24 months follow up) that eliminated deaths which were not stroke-related revealed a significant difference in favor of aspirin. Because of the small number of patients and the short period of follow up, these results should be interpreted only as consistent with those reported in the initial publication but not conclusive of an aspirin effect in preventing cerebral infarction.
