The Prokaryotes
Author: Edward F. DeLongPublisher: Springer
ISBN: 9783642301193
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 567
Book Description
The Prokaryotes is a comprehensive, multi-authored, peer reviewed reference work on Bacteria and Achaea. This fourth edition of The Prokaryotes is organized to cover all taxonomic diversity, using the family level to delineate chapters. Different from other resources, this new Springer product includes not only taxonomy, but also prokaryotic biology and technology of taxa in a broad context. Technological aspects highlight the usefulness of prokaryotes in processes and products, including biocontrol agents and as genetics tools. The content of the expanded fourth edition is divided into two parts: Part 1 contains review chapters dealing with the most important general concepts in molecular, applied and general prokaryote biology; Part 2 describes the known properties of specific taxonomic groups. Two completely new sections have been added to Part 1: bacterial communities and human bacteriology. The bacterial communities section reflects the growing realization that studies on pure cultures of bacteria have led to an incomplete picture of the microbial world for two fundamental reasons: the vast majority of bacteria in soil, water and associated with biological tissues are currently not culturable, and that an understanding of microbial ecology requires knowledge on how different bacterial species interact with each other in their natural environment. The new section on human microbiology deals with bacteria associated with healthy humans and bacterial pathogenesis. Each of the major human diseases caused by bacteria is reviewed, from identifying the pathogens by classical clinical and non-culturing techniques to the biochemical mechanisms of the disease process. The 4th edition of The Prokaryotes is the most complete resource on the biology of prokaryotes. The following volumes are published consecutively within the 4th Edition: Prokaryotic Biology and Symbiotic Associations Prokaryotic Communities and Ecophysiology Prokaryotic Physiology and Biochemistry Applied Bacteriology and Biotechnology Human Microbiology Actinobacteria Firmicutes Alphaproteobacteria and Betaproteobacteria Gammaproteobacteria Deltaproteobacteria and Epsilonproteobacteria Other Major Lineages of Bacteria and the Archaea
Models, Methods, Concepts & Applications of the Analytic Hierarchy Process
Author: Thomas L. SaatyPublisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 1461435978
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 342
Book Description
The Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) is a prominent and powerful tool for making decisions in situations involving multiple objectives. Models, Methods, Concepts and Applications of the Analytic Hierarchy Process, 2nd Edition applies the AHP in order to solve problems focused on the following three themes: economics, the social sciences, and the linking of measurement with human values. For economists, the AHP offers a substantially different approach to dealing with economic problems through ratio scales. Psychologists and political scientists can use the methodology to quantify and derive measurements for intangibles. Meanwhile researchers in the physical and engineering sciences can apply the AHP methods to help resolve the conflicts between hard measurement data and human values. Throughout the book, each of these topics is explored utilizing real life models and examples, relevant to problems in today’s society. This new edition has been updated and includes five new chapters that includes discussions of the following: - The eigenvector and why it is necessary - A summary of ongoing research in the Middle East that brings together Israeli and Palestinian scholars to develop concessions from both parties - A look at the Medicare Crisis and how AHP can be used to understand the problems and help develop ideas to solve them.

Book Description
This nine-chapter monograph suggests public relations strategies for two-year colleges. After Chapter I sets forth the need for public relations programs to communicate with various audiences, Chapter II examines the terminology, objectives, and nature of public relations, considers the advisory role of the public relations officer, and identifies some unique characteristics of two-year institutions' public relations. Chapter III outlines the components of a public relations effort, which include management, counsel, public information, publications, public speeches, speakers' bureaus, special events, culture and entertainment, alumni and employee relations, and fund raising. This chapter goes on to consider ways of combining these components into an effective program. The qualifications, sources, and job descriptions of the public relations director and staff are discussed in Chapter IV, which also considers multicampus operations and evaluation methods. Chapter V urges a public relations consciousness among staff, faculty, students, and trustees, and Chapter VI discusses relations with community groups (e.g., labor, government, donors, and churches). Chapter VII reviews press criticism, fund drives, student recruitment, foundations, student protest, collective bargaining, and faculty dissent. Chapter VIII stresses the need for good relations with national media, while Chapter IX concludes with several challenges for the community college present. Chapters I through VIII conclude with specific topic-related guidelines. (KL)
