Overview: After all the research on agricultural risk to date, thetreatment of risk in agricultural research is far from harmonious.Many competing risk models have been proposed. Some new methodologiesare largely untested. Some of the leading empirical methodologies inagricultural economic research are poorly suited for problems withaggregate data where risk averse behavior is less likely to beimportant..This book is intended to (i) define the current state of theliterature on agricultural risk research, (ii) provide a criticalevaluation of economic risk research on agriculture to date and (ii

Overview: Approximately five years have elapsed since the Conference on "Tick-borne Diseases and their Vectors" (Wilde, 1978, University of Edinburgh) was held at the Centre for Tropical Veterinary Medicine in Edinburgh. Theileriosis was one of the main topics at that Conference and some 20 scientific presentations were given. Also in the same year a Workshop on "Theileriosis" was held at the Kenyatta Conference Centre in Nairobi (Henson & Campbell, 1977, IDRC, Ottawa). Both of these meetings provided a valuable up- dating of theilerial diseases, and the Proceedings have been a constant source

The papers cover topics ranging from query expansion, co-occurence analysis, user and interactive modelling, system performance prediction and comparison, and probabil

Overview: A major reason for the lack of understanding of argillaceous rocks is that the key to understanding their history lies in their microfabric. .Argillaceous Rock Atlas. addresses this aspect by taking a systematic approach to the analysis of shale fabrics. This approach combines such techniques as scanning electron microscopy, x-radiography and thin-section petrography. Thus the book is amply illustrated with scanning electron and thin section photomicrographs and x-radiograms which show the salient features of shale at a variety of scales. A great portion of the book is devoted to cas

Overview: Public awareness of the importance of Antarctic research, particularly in relation to global problems, has increased. The book spans a broad spectrum of Antarctic science from the "ozone hole" to microbiology to the sea ice. The main focus is on the role of Antarctica and the Southern Ocean in the world climate system, e.g. the formation of sea ice and its relevance to ocean circulation, the biological pump in relation to CO2 release. The past climate history is revealed by the analysis of ice cores and sediments. Studies of plate tectonics and fossil records reach further back in ea

Overview: Provides the first and only volume to collect and consolidate current research on academic aeromobility.Uncovers the mechanisms that have made flying seem necessary to the academic enterprise.Offers rThis open access book shines a light on how and why academic work became entwined with air travel, and what can be done to change academia’s flying habit. The starting point of the book is that flying is only one means of scholarly communication among many, and that the state of the planet now obliges us to shift to other means. How can the academic-as-globetrotter become a thing of the

Overview: As electronic technology reaches the point where complexsystems can be integrated on a single chip, and higher degrees ofperformance can be achieved at lower costs, designers must devise newways to undertake the laborious task of coping with the numerous, andnon-trivial, problems that arise during the conception of suchsystems. On the other hand, shorter design cycles (so that electronicproducts can fit into shrinking market windows) put companies, andconsequently designers, under pressure in a race to obtain reliableproducts in the minimum period of time. New methodologies, supporte

Overview: During the 25 years since acute coronary care was focused into Coronary Care Units there have been three major Phases: I. prevention of death caused by arrhythmias; II. prevention of death due to myocardial failure; and III. limitation of infarct size. In the latter two Phases, there has been infringement upon the time honored concept of a prolonged period of rest for the patient in general and the heart in particular to minimize myocardial metabolic demands. During the second Phase of coronary care, patients with myocardial failure received aggressive measures to increase cardiac wo
