ABC’s of Science – New Century Edition with DirectLink Technology

The last two decades have witnessed unprecedented developments in marine science and technology. Large scale, international, long-term scientific programs have emerged for monitoring the state of the ocean environment, and the rapid development of the offshore oil industry has provided the technological means for a range of other maritime developments.

Advances in the Science and Technology of Ocean Management reviews key developments in the field of marine science and technology, with a focus on long term issues. Three major themes are developed throughout the book: the key importance of technical developments in ocean management; the application of these developments to specific sea uses ranging from fish farming to the deep sea disposal of industrial waste; and the long term general issues raised and to some extent solved by science and technology….

ABC’s of Science – New Century Edition with DirectLink Technology

Drawing heavily on the field of food science, the book applies the vast resources, information, and methods of this discipline toward a full analysis of the preparation of insect diets. The text discusses the various ingredients and processing steps of successful diets. It details various nutrient classes and explains how the constituent parts of diets meet insect nutritional and feeding needs. The author examines diets in terms of overall insect biology, and explores the physical and chemical interactions of food components. This book offers an expert perspective on diet development and how a program of food quality assessment can be applied to rearing systems…. More >>

Science, Technology, and Innovation Policy: Opportunities and Challenges for the Knowledge Economy

Any mention of the “greenhouse effect” tends to ignite controversy. While the rising atmospheric concentrations of greenhouse gases-especially carbon dioxide- are certainly among the most pressing issues today, theoretical and perceived consequences have been subject to conjecture and misinformation.That raging debate has obscured an important fact: scientists and engineers are hard at work on methods to reduce CO2 emissions, and devise practical methods for their remediation.Greenhouse Gas Carbon Dioxide Mitigation: Science and Technologysheds light on the most recent advancements, documented by two of the world’s leading researchers on CO2.Aware of the complexity and still-unknown factors behind climatic change, the authors consider the need to make CO2 mitigation viable for both environmental and economic gain. To that end, Professor Halmann offers new insights into interesting chemical pathways for the conversion of CO2 to useful products. Steinberg adds real-life engineering solut… More >>

Greenhouse Gas Carbon Dioxide Mitigation: Science and Technology

Decision Science and Technology is a compilation of chapters written in honor of a remarkable man, Ward Edwards. Among Ward’s many contributions are two significant accomplishments, either of which would have been enough for a very distinguished career. First, Ward is the founder of behavioral decision theory. This interdisciplinary discipline addresses the question of how people actually confront decisions, as opposed to the question of how they should make decisions. Second, Ward laid the groundwork for sound normative systems by noticing which tasks humans can do well and which tasks computers should perform. This volume, organized into five parts, reflects those accomplishments and more. The book is divided into four sections: `Behavioral Decision Theory’ examines theoretical descriptions and empirical findings about human decision making. `Decision Analysis’ examines topics in decision analysis.`Decision in Society’ explores issues in societal decision making. The … More >>
