Paperback. Condizione: Very Good. "Introductory Statistics for Biology Students" tackles fundamental ideas and experimental design using the minimum of mathematics and should prove useful for life science students. Examples are taken from a variety of disciplines, including zoology, plant science and agriculture, pharmacology and medicine. The book explains the importance of statistical methods and seeks to communicate the concepts of sampling and experimentation in a rigorous yet sympathetic style. Practical points concerning student projects are also fully covered. The text uses numerous annotated illustrations from Minitab printouts to underline principles of data interpretation and analysis. This book should be of interest to first year undergraduates in life sciences (pharmacy, psychology, agriculture, medicine, veterinary science and dentistry). Postgraduates requiring a refresher in statistics should find it useful. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting.

Paperback. Condizione: Very Good. I was asked to introduce this volume by examining "why a knowledge of ecosys tem functioning can contribute to understanding species activities, dynamics, and assemblages." I have found it surprisingly difficult to address this topic. On the one hand, the answer is very simple and general: because all species live in ecosystems, they are part of and dependent on ecosystem processes. It is impossible to understand the abundance and distribution of populations and the species diversity and composition of communities without a knowledge of their abiotic and biotic environments and of the fluxes of energy and mat ter through the ecosystems of which they are a part. But everyone knows this. It is what ecology is all about (e.g., Likens, 1992). It is why the discipline has retained its integrity and thrived, despite a sometimes distressing degree of bickering and chauvinism among its various subdisciplines: physiological, be havioral, population, community, and ecosystem ecology. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged.…

Paperback. Condizione: Very Good. How much do we know about the living world and our impact upon it? Enough to make effective predictions about its future? This volume explores key scientific concepts underlying ecology and presents the story of environmental change from a human perspective, dealing with sustainability, biodiversity, extinction rates and global warming. In a form which is accessible to both the scientific and non-scientific reader, the text shows how ecological principles are crucial to the understanding of the world and have shaped our own evolution. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged.…

Paperback. Condizione: Very Good. Stress and Animal Welfare provides students of animal biology with a fresh, integrated coverage of the concepts and scientific measurement of the welfare of animals. This book is the first to explain the basic biological principles of how animals actually cope with stress, and the major part of the work is devoted to explaining scientifically usable concepts in stress and welfare. A wide range of stress indicators are highlighted in detail with examples being drawn from man and other species. This information forms the basis for a synthesis of now ideas presented here for the first time. Among the issues covered are: how physical systems are regulated by the body and brain; limits to adaptation assessing welfare for both short-term and long-term responses; ethical problems and suggested solutionsProper assessment of animal welfare is essential so that informed decisions can be taken about what is morality acceptable in terms of practice and in the development of more effective legislation. This text encapsulates a very wide body of literature on scientific aspects of animal welfare, and will prove a valuable asset for students and teachers of animal biology. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged.…

Paperback. Condizione: Very Good. This comprehensive textbook illustrates the excitement and the difficulties of working at the interface between pure and applied research.

Paperback. Condizione: Very Good. BY W. H. MCCREA, F. R. S. 'THE only justification for our concepts and system of concepts is that they serve to represent the complex of our experiences; beyond this they have no legitimacy. ' So Einstein writes on page 2 of this book. Most present-day physicists would agree, and many before Einstein must have held the same opinion. Einstein, however, put the opinion into practice to better purpose than any physicist before him. And for Einstein it evidently meant what it means for most of us today: a theory is the construction of a theoretical model of the world of physics; all the mathematical discussion applies to the model; the model embodies the 'system of concepts', and it serves 'to represent the complex of our experiences' if the experience of the theoretical observer in the theoretical model can be put into satisfactory correspondence with the experi- ence of the actual observer in the actual physical world. Classical mechanics and classical electromagnetism pro- vide models that are good representations of two sets of actual experiences. As Einstein was the first fully to appreciate, however, it is not possible to combine these into a single self-consistent model. The construction of the simplest possible self-consistent model is the achieve- ment of Einstein's theory of special relativity. The theory is found, in particular, to give a satisfactory representation of the electromagnetic interaction between charged particles through its use of the concept of the electromagnetic field. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged.…
