The Genetic Testing of Children
Author: Angus Clarke
Publisher: Garland Science
ISBN: 1000144674
Category : Medical
Languages : en
Pages : 390
Book Description
This book, written by a leading geneticist, examines the ethical and social issues raised by the genetic testing of children. The opinions of geneticists, ethicists and affected families are all included to give a balanced view of this controversial field. Issues covered include confidentiality, potential abuses of genetic information (eg the use of test results by insurance companies) and the value of predictive genetic testing. The aim of the book is to improve awareness of the complexity of the issues raised and provide suggestions as to how the discussions must develop - it therefore raises new questions as well as answering those that already exist.

The MPs' Expenses Scheme
Author: Independent Parliamentary Standards Authority
Publisher: The Stationery Office
ISBN: 9780102964974
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 128
Book Description
The Independent Parliamentary Standards Authority (IPSA) published a consultation on MPs' expenses in January 2010 (ISBN 9780108508806). After considering the responses, IPSA here sets out the new scheme for the reimbursement of expenses incurred by MPs in doing their work. Its underlying principles are based on those proposed by the Committee of Standards in Public Life (12th report, Cm. 7724, ISBN 9780101772426) with supplementary standards from IPSA. The scheme aims to be fair, workable and transparent. Transparency is critical if public confidence in Parliament is to be restored, and this underlies the basing of the scheme on expenses rather than on an allowances based system. Expenses will be reimbursed on presentation of a receipt or other evidence of expenditure. Chapters cover: process for making claims; process for the determination and review of claims; general conditions; accommodation expenses; London area living payment; travel and subsistence expenses; staffing expenditure; constituency office rental expenditure; general administrative expenditure; winding-up expenses; miscellaneous expenses. The new scheme is to be operational for the new Parliament following the forthcoming general election.

Professional Microsoft SQL Server 2008 Programming
Author: Robert Vieira
Publisher: John Wiley & Sons
ISBN: 0470632097
Category : Computers
Languages : en
Pages : 938
Book Description
This book is written for SQL Server 2008. However, it does maintain roots going back a few versions and looks out for backward compatibility issues with SQL Server 2005 and SQL Server 2000. These versions are old enough that there is little to no time spent on them except in passing. The book is oriented around developing on SQL server. Most of the concepts are agnostic to what client language you use although the examples that leverage a client language general do so in C#. For those who are migrating from early versions of SQL Server, some “gotchas” that exist any time a product has versions are discussed to the extent that they seem to be a genuinely relevant issue. This book assumes that you have some experience with SQL Server and are at an intermediate to advanced level. The orientation of the book is highly developer focused. While there is a quick reference-oriented appendix, there is very little coverage given to beginner level topics. It is assumed that you already have experience with data manipulation language (DML) statements and know the basics of the mainstream SQL Server objects (views, stored procedures, user defined functions, etc.). If you would like to brush up on your knowledge before diving into this book, the author recommends reading Beginning SQL Server 2008 Programming first. There is very little overlap between the Beginning and Professional books and they are designed to work as a pair.

Waste Management Research Trends
Author: Toma V. Golush
Publisher: Nova Publishers
ISBN: 9781604562347
Category : Nature
Languages : en
Pages : 422
Book Description
This book focuses on waste management which is the collection, transport, processing, recycling or disposal of waste materials. The term usually relates to materials produced by human activity, and is generally undertaken to reduce their effect on health, aesthetics or amenity. Waste management is also carried out to reduce the materials' effect on the environment and to recover resources from them. Waste management can involve solid, liquid or gaseous substances, with different methods and fields of expertise for each. Waste management practices differ for developed and developing nations, for urban and rural areas, and for residential and industrial, producers. Management for non-hazardous residential and institutional waste in metropolitan areas is usually the responsibility of local government authorities, while management for non-hazardous commercial and industrial waste is usually the responsibility of the generator.
