Elektra Volume 1: Introspect Tpb by Greg Rucka

This book describes isolated actinobacteria from different environments, and how these can be used to bioremediate heavy metals and pesticides in contaminated sites. It also describes how free-living actinobacteria acquire the capability to produce nodules in plants and how this factor could be important for accelerating the degradation of pesticides in soils or slurries. Some chapters show how actinobacteria can be used to produce industrial enzymes and metabolites under different physicochemical conditions for use in the food industry. This book will interest professionals involved with waste management, environmental protection, and pollution abatement.
Bob Gale is an Oscar-nominated Screenwriter-Producer-Director, best known as co-creator, co-writer and co-producer of Back to the Future and its sequels. Gale was born and raised in suburban St. Louis, Missouri, where he attended public high school. He then moved to Los Angeles to major in cinema at the University of Southern California. He has written or co-written over 30 screenplays. His other film credits include 1941, I Wanna Hold Your Hand, Used Cars, and Interstate 60, which he also directed. His darker side is clearly seen in his 2013 novel Retribution High, as well as the 1992 movie Trespass, which he co-authored, and in his episode of Tales From The Crypt, House of Horror, which he wrote and directed. Gale has also written comic books, most notably issues of Spider-Man, Batman and Daredevil, thus proving to his father that he did not waste hours and hours reading comics in his youth. He lives in Southern California with his wife and their dog, and he still roots for the St. Louis Cardinals.
