Spain and the Wider World since 2000
This book offers the first comprehensive study of Spanish foreign policy since 2000. Based on privileged access to some of Spain’s most important foreign policy actors – including Prime Minister José Luis Rodríguez Zapatero and Foreign Minister Miguel Ángel Moratinos – the book offers an insider account of how Spanish foreign policy was shaped within the context of international diplomacy. It offers crucial new insights into the foreign policy of the PSOE governments (Spanish Socialist Workers' Party, 2004 to 2011). The volume considers the changes on the international stage since the fall of the Berlin Wall in 1989, showing how regional conflicts and tensions affected the policy ag...
Los Estados débiles. ¿Culpa de los gobiernos o de los ciudadanos?
Existe cierto consenso con respecto a que la debilidad del Estado está asociada con su capacidad y disposición para cumplir funciones esenciales como el suministro de bienes y servicios públicos. No obstante, determinar si un Estado es débil o si está en proceso de debilitamiento solo sobre la base del grado de cumplimiento en la entrega de esos bienes y servicios resulta insuficiente puesto que habría que considerar las razones por las cuales se producen tales incumplimientos, esto es, si se debe a una falta de capacidad y/o falta de voluntad propia de los Gobiernos, o si obedece a una falta de capacidad y disposición ciudadana o tal vez a la conjugación de ambos elementos, o inclus...
Doing December Differently
Explores how people of faith and goodwill might mark the midwinter season and the Christmas festival with integrity and simplicity.
Plant Analysis Handbook II
All good growers know that the keys to plant health and, ultimately, profits, lie in media and fertilization. Chapters discuss general plant nutrition, along with detailed discussions on understanding how plants use nutrients and how your actions affect that use, plus details on how to prepare and analyze tissue samples. Interpretive values for more than 1,300 agronomic, vegetable, and ornamental plants are included.

The Butterflies of Venezuela: Nymphalidae I (Limenitidinae, Apaturinae, Charaxinae)
Part 1 of The Butterflies of Venezuela was a pioneering work of its kind for South America, being the first authoritative volume in a comprehensive faunistic identification series. The series will prove invaluable to all who wish to learn about the remarkable and diverse butterfly fauna of this country and continent. Approximately 1000 species of adult Nympbalidae, Papilionidae, and Pieridae will be treated in the four-part series, equivalent to over one-third of the total Neotropical species in these families. Drawing on over 20 years of personal research in the field, in collections, and in libraries, the detailed accounts for each species encapsulate all that is known about their identifi...
Proactive Intelligence
Traditionally, tapping into the power of competitive intelligence (CI) meant investing in the development of an internal CI unit or hiring outside consultants who specialized in CI. Proactive Intelligence: The Successful Executive's Guide to Intelligence offers an alternative: learn how to do it yourself and how to effectively manage the parts you cannot. The tools and techniques that will enable you to produce your own CI for your consumption are out there, and have been honed by decades of work. But, you cannot just adopt them – you have to adapt them. Why? Because, when you finish reading this book, you will be the data collector, the analyst, and the end-user. Traditional CI is premise...
The Andean Cloud Forest
A book focused solely on Andean Cloud Forests (ACF) has never been published. ACF are high biodiversity ecosystems in the Neotropics with a large proportion of endemic species, and are important for the hydrology of entire regions. They provide water for large parts of the Amazon basin, for example. Here I take advantage of my many years working in ACF in Ecuador, to edit this book that contains the following sections: (1) ACF over space and time, (2) Hydrology, (3) Light and the Carbon cycle, (4) Soil, litter, fungi and nutrient cycling, (5) Plants, (6) Animals, and (7) Human impacts and management. Under this premise, international experts contributed chapters that consist of reviews of what is known about their topic, of what research they have done, and of what needs to be done in the future. This work is suitable for graduate students, professors, scientists, and researcher-oriented managers.
Atlas of Neotropical Lepidoptera
This checklist does not supercede any other because it is the first of its kind for the Neotropical region. It represents the cUlmination of several years preparation by the con tributing authors and editor, following the initiation of the "Atlas" project in the autumn of 1978. The collaborators to the project continue their work, either for "Atlas" fascicles or for the more immediate completion of the remaining five parts of the checklist. The goal of the project is to provide a foundation work on the Neotropical Lepidoptera, illustrated to the extent possible and encompassing a detailed text covering the basic data known for each described species (original citation, synonymy, diagnosis, r...
Modern Food Microbiology
This fourth edition of Modern Food Microbiology is written primarily for use as a textbook in a second or subsequent course in microbiology. The previous editions have found usage in courses in food microbiology and applied microbiology in liberal arts, food science, food technology, nutritional science, and nutrition curricula. Although organic chemistry is a desirable prerequisite, those with a good grasp of biology and chemistry should not find this book difficult. In addition to its use as a textbook, this edition, like the previous one, contains material that goes beyond that covered in a typical microbiology course (parts of Chaps. 4, 6, and 7). This material is included for its refere...
