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. Monitoring has become fashionable. Business now talks about monitoring its activities, efficiency, costs and profits. The National Health Service is monitoring general practices and hospitals; it is keen to have more information about efficiency and the duration of stay of patients in different hospitals undergoing different types of treatment. These activities are usually carried out in relation to specific objectives with the aim of making activities more cost effective and competitive. Does the same apply in biology, ecology and nature conservation? Or, are we still enjoying conducting field surveys for the fun of it, at best with rather vague objectives and saying to our colleagues that we do our work because we need to know what is there? This book is an opportunity to consider some of the reasons why monitoring is important, how it differs from survey, how it may be able to answer specific questions and help with site management or problem solving. It will explore some of the taxa that are suitable for recording and how you may actually set about doing it. It is not intended as a catalogue of techniques but we will in each chapter give you sources of material so that with the minimum of effort you will be able to proceed with an efficient, relevant and not too time consuming monitoring programme. Some of the points that you need to consider before starting are also set down in the synthesis at the end of the book. 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. Some 25 years has passed since the first edition of this book was published. Today it is regarded by many as standard work on the subject, and is retailing in over 175 countries. It is appropriate the sixth edition should be published at a time of great change in the international shipping industry. Opportunity has been taken particularly to enlarge the chapters on bills of lading, chartering, ships and their cargoes, containeriz- ation, and the international consignment. Additional illustrations have been provided especially on ship types. The sixth edition will be useful specifically for students taking courses sponsored by the Institute of Chartered Shipbrokers, Insti- tute of Freight Forwarders, Institute of Export, Institute of Trans- port Administration, Institute of Physical Management, Chartered Institute of Transport, Institute of Bankers, Institute of Marine Engineers, Institute of Marketing, Institute of Road Transport Engineers and Chambers of Commerce. It will also be ideal for students taking shipping, export, import, international trade and transport examinationslresearch courses at degree/diploma level at universities and polytechnics, not only in the UK, but also in Hong Kong, Nigeria, Malaysia, Jamaica, Jordan, USA, the Middle East, Europe, Pacific Rim Nations and Third World countries. The book remains compulsory reading on the Foundation Course in Overseas Trade - subject 'International Physical Distribution' - for which I was one of the four subject specialists responsible for the course's development under the aegis of HM Government in 1975 through the British Overseas Trade Board.

Paperback. Condizione: Very Good. This book has passed through a number of editions each involving some modifications while retaining the general character of the first. The most substantial changes occurred in the fifth (1983), but that is now out-of-date. Mycology has not been immune from the rapid evolution of biology in the past decade and the preparation was a long way beyond the capacity of the older writer (C.T.I.). So a younger one (H.J.H.) has collaborated with him. Substantial changes have been made throughout, particularly in relation to taxonomy but in general Chapters 1-7 have undergone relatively little revision. However, this is not true of Chapters 8-12 where the influence of the younger author is paramount. The basic idea of the book remains, namely to present fungi as living organisms profoundly affecting the lives of other kinds of living organisms, especially Man. Their study is of the greatest importance and what is more it is great fun. Many of the diagrams have been retained, but some have been redrawn and new ones added. Weare pleased to acknowledge the patience and artistic skills of Mrs Lindsay J. Wilson in producing these. Some coloured plates have also been introduced from photographs taken by H.J .H. 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 book is one of a series of brief fundamental texts for junior under- graduates and diploma students in biological science. The series, Molecular and CellBiochemistry, coversthewholeofmodernbiochemistry, integrating animal, plantand microbial topics. The intention is to give the series special appeal to the many students who read biochemistry for only part of their course and who are looking for an all-encompassing and stimulating approach. Althoughallbooksintheseriesbearadistinctfamilylikeness,each standson itsownasan independent text. Many students, particularly those with less numerate backgrounds, find elements of their biochemistry courses daunting, and one of our principal concerns is to offer books which present the facts in a palatable style. Each chapteris prefaced bya listoflearningobjectives, with shortsummariesand revision aids at the ends of chapters. The text itself is informal, and the incorporation of marginal notes and information boxes to accompany the main text give a tutorial flavour, complementing and supporting the main narrative. The marginal notes and boxes relate facts in the text to applicable examplesineverydaylife, in industry, inotherlife sciencesandin medicine, and provide a variety of other educational devices to assist, support, and reinforce learning. References are annotated to guide students towards effectiveand relevantadditional reading.

Hardcover. Condizione: Very Good. No Jacket. 1st Edition. 1917 first printing, with the words "Presentation Copy" embossed (blind-stamped) in small type vertically down the side of the title page. (Blind-stamping unlikely to show up on our scans.) The UK Internet seller from whom we acquired this copy believed this stamping rendered this volume a "Presentation Copy" worth $80; we don't. The problem is, so far as we can determine, this copy was never actually PRESENTED to anyone. There's NO presentation inscription, NO conveyance or presentation letter laid in, and no signature to be found -- not by the author, not by the publisher, not by the publisher's mail-room clerk, nothin'. Nonetheless, a "very good" first printing of this classic and prophetic work on air power, with minor rub to board corners and some modest foxing to endpapers (and to pages which face the B&W plates, oddly enough), with the glossy B&W author portrait frontispiece still protected by its original tissue guard. And if you believe said blind-stamping to title page triples the value of this book, a great bargain at the price! 262 pp. including Index, followed by 2 pp. publisher's ads. Here reduced from $27. With Twenty Illustrations (glossy B&W plates.) (illustratore).…
