Environmental Co-operation and Institutional Change
'The book is well-written and makes a significant contribution to the development of the principles and practices of dealing with agri-environmental problems. It is of relevance to a wide circle of readers, including researchers and politicians but also students and others concerned with agri-environmental issues.' - Stefanie Engel and Ulrike Grote, Quarterly Journal of International Agriculture '. . . the book has the potential to provide something for everyone.' - Stefan Bäckmann, European Review of Agricultural Economics Although the history of the Common Agricultural Policy (CAP) is dominated by a process of centralisation, growing pressures to integrate agri-environmental problems into the CAP have revealed the need to embrace decentralised approaches in an efficient federal structure. Indeed, in recent years it has become increasingly evident that the agricultural sector must undergo fundamental changes in order to enter an era of sustainable development.
Advanced Organic Chemistry
The control of reactivity to achieve specific syntheses is one of the overarching goals of organic chemistry. In the decade since the publication of the third edition, major advances have been made in the development of efficient new methods, particularly catalytic processes, and in means for control of reaction stereochemistry. This volume assumes a level of familiarity with structural and mechanistic concepts comparable to that in the companion volume, Part A, Structures and Mechanisms. Together, the two volumes are intended to provide the advanced undergraduate or beginning graduate student in chemistry with a sufficient foundation to comprehend and use the research literature in organic chemistry. The New Revised 5th Edition will be available shortly. For details, click on the link in the right-hand column.
Trace Elements in Man and Animals--9
Presents papers from an international meeting of specialists from a variety of disciplines sharing an interest in trace elements. The papers are organized into broad categories covering such topics as trace element interactions in the food supply and nutrition; trace elements and genetic regulation; trace elements in pregnancy and lactation; assessment of trace element status; kinetic modelling; trace elements in the environment and food supply; trace elements, brain function, and behaviour; membrane function and cell signalling; analytical, experimental, and isotopic techniques; ethics of trace element research; defining trace element requirements of infants; trace element intervention studies; trace elements and animal production, free-radical mediated disease, and food and nutrition policy; analytical quality control; infection and immune function; trace element binding proteins; trace elements in growth and metabolism; mechanisms of trace element toxicity; and metabolic and physiological consequences of trace element deficiencies.

Modernity, Metatheory, and the Temporal-Spatial Divide
This book is about how modernity affects our perceptions of time and space. Its main argument is that geographical space is used to control temporal progress by channeling it to benefit particular political, economic and social interests, or by halting it altogether. By incorporating the ancient Greek myth of the Titanomachy as a conceptual metaphor to explore the elemental ideas of time and space, the author argues that hegemonic interests have developed spatial hierarchy into a comprehensive system of technocratic monoculture, which interrupts temporal development in order to maintain exclusive power and authority. This spatial stasis is reinforced through the control of historical narratives and geographical settings. While increasingly comprehensive, the author argues that this state of affairs can best be challenged by focusing on the development of "unmappable places" which presently exist within the socio-spatial matrix of the modern world.
