Humanities & Social SciencesFebruary 2010Committee governance in the European Union
by Thomas Christiansen, Emil Kirchner, Emil Kirchner, Thomas Christiansen
Committees are a pervasive presence in the EU policy process yet little is known about the way in which they operate. This volume, newly available in paperback, brings together an international group of experts from a number of disciplinary backgrounds to provide a comprehensive account of the role played by committees in the European Union. The book looks at committees in the context of inter-institutional relations, a focus based on the recognition that the relationships between Commission, Council, Parliament and national authorities - rather than the institutions themselves - are crucial to the understanding of European policy-making. Much of that interaction is regularised in various kinds of committees and the book provides an in-depth analysis of the nature and the effects of 'committee governance' in the EU system. A number of case studies (monetary, policy, trade, environment, spatial planning and foreign policy) examine the role of committees in specific areas. These are framed by broader perspectives which provide theoretical, statistical and normative analyses of the phenomenon of committee governance. ;

September 2018New technology of ecological cultivation in rice field
by Huang Huang, Wang Xiaoqing
The ecological cultivation of rice fields with multiple cropping system is the improvement and development of the classical farming mode of China "rice field fish cultivation". The new technologies of rice field ecological cultivation introduced in this book include rice oil fish ecological cultivation mode, rice oil turtle ecological cultivation mode, rice loach ecological cultivation mode, rice oil crab ecological cultivation mode, rice oil frog ecological cultivation mode, rice oil shrimp ecological cultivation mode , rice eel ecological cultivation model, rice duck ecological cultivation model. On the basis of the previous large-scale business model, two patent technologies of "ladder cultivation" and "wedge cultivation" have been ingeniously added, which have successfully solved the bottleneck problems of escaping, overwintering in summer, ensuring feed, no tillage cultivation, directional fertilization and water-saving irrigation in the cultivation process, and initially formed a technical system of "narrow ridge, multiple maturity, close planting and sparse cultivation", and achieved good economic results Economic, ecological and social benefits.

MedicineApril 2018Bovine Tuberculosis
by Mark Chambers, Stephen Gordon, Francisco Olea-Popelka, Paul Barrow
This book is contemporary, topical and global in its approach, and provides an essential, comprehensive treatise on bovine tuberculosis and the bacterium that causes it, Mycobacterium bovis. Bovine tuberculosis remains a major cause of economic loss in cattle industries worldwide, exacerbated in some countries by the presence of a substantial wildlife reservoir. It is a major zoonosis, causing human infection through consumption of unpasteurised milk or by close contact with infected animals. Following a systematic approach, expert international authors cover epidemiology and the global situation; microbial virulence and pathogenesis; host responses to the pathogen; and diagnosis and control of the disease. Aimed at researchers and practising veterinarians, this book is essential for those needing comprehensive information on the pathogen and disease, and offers a summary of key information learned from human tuberculosis research. It will be useful to those studying the infection and for those responsible for controlling the disease.
