While there are many English books available on academic research methods and philosophy, many complain that they are difficult for budding, non-native English-speaking researchers to use and understand. Rather than hiding behind jargon, writers should describe and define the concepts for the benefit of non-native English speakers. Social Research Methodology and Publishing Results: A Guide to Non-Native English Speakers explains methods commonly used in the field of academic research, provides stimulus to non-native English-speaking researchers for successful implementation of academic research, and meets the need for an appropriate course framework and materials for teaching research methodology. Covering topics such as pragmatism, research design, and empirical modeling, this premier reference source is a dynamic resource for educators and administrators of higher education, pre-service teachers, librarians, teacher educators, non-native English-speaking researchers, and academicians.

Artificial Intelligence (AI) is an extensive concept that can be interpreted as a concentration on designing computer programs to train machines to accomplish functions like or better than hu-mans. An important subset of AI is Machine Learning (ML), in which a computer is provided with the capacity to learn its own patterns instead of the patterns and restrictions set by a human programmer, thus improving from experience. Deep Learning (DL), as a class of ML techniques, employs multilayered neural networks. The application of AI to plant science research is new and has grown significantly in recent years due to developments in calculation power, proficien-cies of hardware, and software progr...
Chatterjee discusses India’s economic strengths and weaknesses and its progress towards inclusive growth by providing an overview of the Indian economy, its future challenges and current policy strategies. Chatterjee’s overview of the economy touches on its historical, geographical and socio-political context. Considering the factors that contribute to its current growth such as India’s low dependency ratio, vast internal market and growing private sector and entrepreneurial class, he argues that inclusive growth rests amongst others on agricultural transformation and targeted policies that address the needs of medium, small and microenterprises (MSMEs) which dominate industry and cons...
The oil and fat are the most important source of energy for human being. But, one should think about the amount to be consumed and the quality of the oil or fat that they get. Hence, one should know about the basics of the manufacturing process. Furthermore, a huge research is going on in the field of oil and fat processing, hence, concise information about theoretical knowledge of principles involved in the manufacturing of oil and fat is much needed. Keeping all this in mind, a handbook on oil and fat technology has been created to benefit the students of food science and technology both at under-graduate or post-graduate level, the researchers and the scientists. Though there are number o...
