In this Very Short Introduction, Terrence Allen and Graham Cowling offer an illuminating account of the nature of cells--their basic structure, forms, division, signaling, and programmed death. Allen and Cowling start with the simple "prokaryotic" cell--cells with no nucleus--and show how the bodies of more complex plants and animals consist of billions of "eukaryotic" cells, of varying kinds, adapted to fill different roles--red blood cells, muscle cells, branched neurons. The authors also show that each cell is an astonishingly complex chemical factory, the activities of which we have only begun to unravel in the past fifty years.

Healed cracked feet!
Color: Gray
These moisturizing heel socks are great for dry, cracked heels. They’re soft, comfortable, and easy to wear around the house or overnight. I like that the silicone/gel part helps lock in moisture, especially when paired with foot cream or lotion. They fit well without feeling too tight, and having 4 pairs is really convenient. After using them consistently, my heels felt softer and smoother. Great little self-care item, especially if you’re on your feet a lot or struggle with dry skin.

Great stretch.

My husband has diabetes and these work great on his heels. I was worried they would be too small, he wears a size 12 shoe and they fit great!

Great

I purchased these after having a total knee replacement. My heels were getting sore from the exercises. These little socks with the gel has helped tremendously. I am now sleeping in them. and the soreness is going away.
