The Handbook of Chemical and Biological Sensors focuses on the development of sensors to recognize substances rather than physical quantities. This fully inclusive book examines devices that use a biological sensing element to detect and measure chemical and biological species as well as those that use a synthetic element to achieve a similar result. A first port of call for anyone with a specific interest, question, or problem relating to this area, this comprehensive source of reference serves as a guide for practicing scientists and as a text for many graduate courses. It presents relevant physics to chemists, chemistry to materials scientists, materials science to electronic engineers, and fabrication technology to all of the above. In addition, the handbook is useful both to newcomers and to experienced researchers who wish to broaden their knowledge of the constituent disciplines of this wide-ranging field.

Changes in norms and circumstances require the expansion of rights: What new rights, for example, are needed if we understand gender to be nonbinary? Does living in a corrupt state violate our rights? And emerging technologies demand that we think about old rights in new ways: When biotechnology is used to change genetic code, whose rights might be violated? What rights, if any...

"Max and Me" tells the story of a child's first day at school. Each day gets harder for him as he struggles to cope with the noise, lights, and activities of a busy school day. One day he has had enough.. "I hate school, I don't want to go back!" That's when his mum tells him about Max - his modulator. The story offers an explanation of how sensory information is processed using the analogy of a 'modulator,' who, living in the brain has the job of receiving messages from the senses and then deciding the best thing for the body to do. Once he gets to know his modulator and how to work together with him, things start to go beter for him.. that is until Max falls asleep! "Max and Me" is a resource for therapists, teachers, parents and children. The workbook format is designed for allow children to reflect on the story, and (working together with an adult), get to know their own 'modulator'.
