[edit] Perspectives in Amino and Protein Geochemistry

This book covers preservation of ancient proteins and amino acids, diagnoses of proteins and amino acids through geologic time and on short time scales, stable isotope geochemistry of proteins and amino acids, amino acid racemization, the origin of life, the stability of amino acids, and extraterrestrial amino acids.

Amino Acids are not only the essential constituents of all living organisms, they also provide vital clues about life in the past. This book of contributed papers updates the science of amino acid geochemistry and replaces a classic but now outdated work, 'The Biogeochemistry of Amino Acids' (out of print). The new book will have a wider focus than its predecessor, covering preservation of ancient proteins and amino acids, diagenesis of proteins and amino acids through geologic time and on short time scales (relevant to the preservation of museum materials), stable isotope geochemistry of proteins and amino acids, amino acid racemization, the origin of life, the stability of amino acids at hgh temperatures and pressures, and extraterrestrial amino acids. The primary audience for this book will be academics and graduate students in geochemistry, organic chemistry, archaeology, geochronology, and stratigraphy, although it will also be of interest to workers in forensic science.
