Microbial Biotechnology
Biotechnology is a broad area of biology concerned with the development or manufacture of products using living organisms, biological systems and their derivatives. It integrates the principles of biological sciences such as biochemistry, cell biology, embryology, microbiology, etc. It overlaps with the fields of bio-engineering, molecular biology, biomanufacturing, biomedical engineering, etc. It has applications in the domains of food production, medicine and agriculture. The production of antibiotics and vaccines, production of wine, cheese and beer through fermentation processes, management and reduction of waste, etc. are some applications of biotechnology that are aided by microbes. This book is a valuable compilation of topics, ranging from the basic to the most complex advancements in the field of microbial biotechnology. It presents this complex subject in the most comprehensible and easy to understand language. As this field is emerging at a rapid pace, the contents of this book will help the readers understand the modern concepts and applications of the subject.

The Evolution of Sex
The evolutionary objective of both sexes is to optimize the number of genes they contribute to following generations. Invariably the most efficient way to achieve this is to have many high quality offspring. However, males and females can be influenced by very different biological forces that subsequently shape their reproductive strategies. This readable account of the evolution of sexual reproduction highlights these differences between the sexes, specifically the potential for both conflict and co-operation at the level of the individual. Males and females are often very different when it comes to carrying out their reproductive strategies and may be at odds as to how best to maximize their success. This book discusses those differences, how they arose, what they are, and provides a wealth of examples to better understand how the two biological sexes approach sexual reproduction. The Evolution of Sex is an accessible primer suitable for both undergraduate and graduate students of anthropology, psychology, and biology. It will also appeal to a more general audience seeking a better understanding of human sexual behaviour from an evolutionary viewpoint.
A First Course in Systems Biology
A First Course in Systems Biology, Third Edition is an introduction to the growing field of systems biology for advanced undergraduates and graduate students. Its focus is the design and analysis of computational models and their applications to diverse biomedical phenomena, from simple networks and kinetics to complex pathway systems, signal transduction, personalized medicine, and interacting populations. The book begins with the fundamentals of computational modeling, then reviews features of the molecular inventories that bring biological systems to life and ends with case studies that reflect some of the frontiers in systems biology. In this way, the First Course provides the reader wit...
The Economics of Clean Energy
As of 2017, 69 percent of Americans were in favor of restricting carbon emissions from coal power plants out of concern for climate change and the state of the environment, but can we afford to make the change to cleaner energy sources? This volume looks at the various alternative energy sources and their economic viability, exploring the debate about which path forward makes the most sense. Readers will gain a better understanding of the crossroads facing policymakers and the energy sector and be empowered to form their own opinions about how this urgent issue should be addressed.
Photogrammetry and Remote Sensing
The science of taking measurements using photographs is called photogrammetry and it complements the discipline of remote sensing. This book attempts to assist those with a goal of delving into the field of photogrammetry and remote sensing by covering photogrammetric methods and their applications in diverse fields such as architecture, engineering, geology, meteorology, etc. From theories to research to practical applications, case studies related to all contemporary topics of relevance to this field have been included in this book. It is highly recommended for students, academicians and researchers of this field.
