Sustainable Agricultural Production Systems
Due to the growth of the world population, food production has increased exponentially as have the agricultural production systems used to produce food. This book presents both traditional and modern forms of agricultural production, with an emphasis on sustainable practices. The volume discusses seed improvement, crop protection, phytosanitary aspects, protected agriculture, plant factories, hydroponic systems, agricultural mechanization, bioremediation, reduction of herbicide use, and characterization of bioactive compounds. Some methods discussed include in vitro propagation, greenhouse hydroponics, biostimulants from algae, cartography models of vulnerable environmental interactions, nuclear and plastics engineering, eco-friendly extraction processes, use of secondary metabolites in plant defense mechanisms, and more.
Hyperborder
Roving vigilantes, fear-mongering politicians, hysterical pundits, and the looming shadow of a seven hundred-mile-long fence: the US–Mexican border is one of the most complex and dynamic areas on the planet today. Hyperborder provides the most nuanced portrait yet of this dynamic region. Author Fernando Romero presents a multidisciplinary perspective informed by interviews with numerous academics, researchers, and organizations. Provocatively designed in the style of other kinetic large-scale studies like Rem Koolhaas's Content and Bruce Mau’s Massive Change, Hyperborder is an exhaustively researched report from the front lines of the border debate.

The Art of Political Murder
Winner of the T. R. Fyvel Book Award 2008 (Index on Censorship Awards) Shortlisted for the CWA Gold Dagger for Non-Fiction Shortlisted for the Warwick Prize for Writing 2009 On a Sunday night in 1998, Bishop Juan Gerardi, Guatemala's leading human rights activist, was bludgeoned to death. Two days earlier, a Church-sponsored report had implicated Guatemala's government in the disappearances of 200,000 civilians. The Church, feeling that it could not rely on the legal system, took the controversial decision to assemble a team of men, Los Intocables (The Untouchables), to take down Gerardi's killers. In a gripping reconstruction, worthy of Graham Greene, Francisco Goldman traces Los Intocables struggle with the Guatemalan authorities to reveal the true story, uncovering the involvement of youth gangs, political corruption and organised crime. Most of all, he tells the story of an extraordinary group of courageous people and their fight for justice.
