An exciting story that reveals much about how science is done -- and that says something affirmative about the human spirit as well." -- Kirkus Review (May 1, 1993) In the late 1800's, in the Ukrainian town of Ekaterinoslav, Hannah, a woman only in her forties, began suffering from progressive memory loss and eventually became unable to care for herself. What seemed an isolated incident remained unexplained at her death in the 1890's. Years later, Hannah's Grandson Charles, a physician, spurred by his painful observations that many members of his family were all suffering from the same disease, began charting the family's medical history over five generations. In 1985, when this pedigree -- one of the most extensive of its kind -- fortuitously fell into the caring hands of neurologist Dr. Daniel Pollen, Hannah's family would find themselves immersed in one of the most enduring scientific searches of the century -- the quest for the Alzheimer's disease genes. HANNAH'S HEIRS: The Quest for the Genetic Origins of Alzheimer's Disease by Daniel Pollen (June 24, 1993/ 296 pgs / $25.00) is the inspiring, true story, of a courageous family and their efforts to confront and overcome a "personal biological Holocaust." The story chronicles the way in which Alzheimer's was first identified, how this disease has perplexed the modern scientific community, and how researchers have come closer to finding the cause and treatment of Alzheimer's disease. Set within the larger context of the efforts to solve the mysteries of this disease, HANNAH'S HEIRS is a gripping story of one family's descendants caught in a race against this mind- altering affliction, not knowing whether they will succumb to, or escape, its overwhelming grasp. Over the course of 150 years, Pollen traces several hundred of Hannah's remarkable descendants, and reveals this unique family's extraordinary courage and their remarkable contributions to science and to humanity. He gives a clear account of the advances in modern molecular genetics and the neurological sciences as he follows researchers in these fields as they race to solve the remaining mysteries of Alzheimer's disease. Pollen presents the foundations of modern genetic research, from Gregor Mendel's classic discovery of genes, to Alois Alzheimer's work on the brains of presenile dementia victims, to Watson and Crick's double helix model for the structure of DNA. At the same time, Pollen offers a penetrating look at the ongoing conflicts involved in scientific research, revealing how intense competition for prestige and funding has driven some scientists to hoard precious cell lines. These practices have impeded efforts to discover both the causes and the treatments of Alzheimer's in the shortest possible time. Pollen concludes this story with the recent dramatic breakthrough in Alzheimer's research on September 21, 1992 when Peter St. George-Hyslop decisively linked the abnormal gene among the afflicted of Hannah's family to a marker on a long arm of chromosome 14. This finding has established evidence of a connection between familial Alzheimer's disease to chromosome 14 and suggests that there will be further sightings on this strand. Research has shown that the chromosome 14 linkage site comprises the major locus of the majority of families with early-onset Alzheimer's disease genes. These findings have opened the door to early genetic testing for at-risk relatives of Alzheimer's patients and could possible lead to a gene mutation to prevent the disease to at-risk relatives in the future. HANNAH'S HEIRS is a story for those who have seen first hand the horrors of Alzheimer's and are concerned with the genetic path of this disease and it is for those interested in a modern scientific mystery story with strong historical roots. Pollen's is an engrossing and inspiring account of this genetic abnormality and its affect on one family that will grab hold and take the reader on a journey through the spiritual and scientific world. In the word's of Ben, Hannah's great-grandson, "This is a story that had to be told. Our aspirations were transcendent, but because it involved people it could not be told without tears."

Other methods of searching the archives via WAIS and gopher are described in the BIOSCI FAQ. **** BIOSCI FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS (FAQ) SHEET **** New users of BIOSCI/bionet may want to read the "Frequently Asked Questions" or "FAQ" sheet for BIOSCI. The FAQ provides details on how to participate in these forums and is available for anonymous FTP from net.bio.net [134.172.2.69] in pub/BIOSCI/biosci.FAQ. It may also be requested by sending e-mail to biosci@net.bio.net (use plain English for your request). The FAQ is also posted on the first of each month to the newsgroup BIONEWS/bionet.announce immediately following the posting of the BIOSCI information sheet. **** BIOSCI USER ADDRESS DIRECTORY **** Please take this opportunity to add your name and address information to the BIOSCI User Address Database if you have not already done so. Below is the address form that we would like each reader of the BIOSCI/bionet newsgroups to complete and return if you would like to be listed in our database. The database serves as a directory that enables biologists, who are currently using (or even just reading) the BIOSCI newsgroups, to look up e-mail addresses and other information about our users. The address database is reindexed nightly for WAIS and waismail access (waismail is our WAIS e-mail server, more below) and will also be available for access via other gopher sites if they wish to permit it. The raw unindexed data is available for FTP from net.bio.net and is atomized sufficiently to allow import into your local RDBMS should you so desire.
