Sustainable Fashion
This publication aims to provide a source of inspiration for students, designers and companies, and all stakeholders whose interest lies in the area of sustainable fashion. The book presents approaches to fashion that embrace future-oriented value. Several chapters illustrate how effective fashion can be as transformative design or change agent experimentation. A sustainable approach can also reframe current business thinking and reveal opportunities for innovative business strategies. Sustainable Fashion proposes how we can make positive change in current practices and how to effect new mindsets, creating transformation in fashion.
State Manufacturing Enterprise in a Mixed Economy
The author raises questions that are relevant to most developing countries. Turkey's emphasis in the past on capital-intensive import substitution in preference to light labor-intensive export industries had negative consequences for country's growth, balance of payments, and domestic employment. This emphasis, together with the way public enterprise was managed, also helped to promote an inefficient state sector and delayed the maturation of the private sector. The author examines the performance of the state industrial ventures, collectively and individually. Deriving true financial returns from published figures and the economic returns by various adjustments of these financial returns is detailed. The important question about long-run economic benefits: to what extent might they compensate for proximate economic losses in the state sector is the major emphasis of this book.
The Fundamentals of Fashion Design
The Fundamentals of Fashion Design discusses how a collection is formed, who it is designed for and how it is promoted. An overview of jobs within the fashion industry is included, supported by interviews with designers, stylists, photographers, buyers and agents. The visual material provided throughout the book aims to illustrate aspects of fashion design and to bring to life ideas explained within the text. Examples of work from talented designers and other creative people who work in the fashion industry are used to inspire and inform readers. Each 'fundamental' is supported by up-to-date theory, illustration and appropriate context to explain the underlying principles of fashion design practice.

Process-Induced Food Toxicants
Process-Induced Food Toxicants combines the analytical, health, and risk management issues relating to all of the currently known processing-induced toxins that may be present in common foods. It considers the different processing methods used in the manufacture of foods, including thermal treatment, drying, fermentation, preservation, fat processing, and high hydrostatic pressure processing, and the potential contaminants for each method. The book discusses the analysis, formation, mitigation, health risks, and risk management of each hazardous compound. Also discussed are new technologies and the impact of processing on nutrients and allergens.
Competitiveness, Technology and Skills
Bringing together the recent papers of economist Lall (U. of Oxford, UK), this work looks at the ability of third world economies to remain competitive, with a focus on technology policy. After detailing the conceptual underpinnings of competitiveness and trade liberalization, Lall looks at recent export performance be developing countries, the impact of skill needs and indices of skill creation, and the ability of various Asian and African countries (including India, Malaysia, Thailand, the Philippines, Indonesia, Kenya, and Tanzania) to develop technological capabilities. Seven of the 11 chapter have been previously published in journals such as World Development and Development and Change. c. Book News Inc.
Drug-Induced Headache
M. WILKINSON Patients with frequent or daily headaches pose a very difficult problem for the physician who has to treat them, particularly as many patients think that there should be a medicine or medicines which give them instant relief. In the search for the compound which would meet this very natural desire, many drugs have been manufactured and the temptation for the physician is either to increase the dose of a drug which seems to be, at any rate, partially effective, or to add one or more drugs to those which the patient is already taking. Although there have been some references to the dangers of overdosage of drugs for migraine in the past, it was not until relatively recently that i...
Innovative Medicine
This book is devoted to innovative medicine, comprising the proceedings of the Uehara Memorial Foundation Symposium 2014. It remains extremely rare for the findings of basic research to be developed into clinical applications, and it takes a long time for the process to be achieved. The task of advancing the development of basic research into clinical reality lies with translational science, yet the field seems to struggle to find a way to move forward. To create innovative medical technology, many steps need to be taken: development and analysis of optimal animal models of human diseases, elucidation of genomic and epidemiological data, and establishment of “proof of concept”. There is ...
