      • Editorial Universidad Nacional de Quilmes - EUNQ

        The National University of Quilmes is an Argentinian public university that was founded in 1988. The editorial policy is considered one of the key axes for the university projection and integration with the educational environment. Therefore, it is a vital tool for increasing social visibility and for disseminating works that provide a true contribution to the knowledge and cultural heritage of Argentina and the world. The Institutional Editorial Program consists of the Publishing House, the publishing units of the Social Sciences, Administration and Economics Departments and of the Virtual University of Quilmes. The catalogue has a mainly academic profile with living collections and periodicals that contribute to social and scientific debates. Thus, it facilitates the dissemination of knowledge and of the outcomes of the university scientific research and of other national and foreign spheres.

        Las cosas de Orozco siempre piensan de otra manera (Orozco’s Objects Always Think Otherwise)
        Educational: Art & design

        Las cosas de Orozco siempre piensan de otra manera (Orozco’s Objects Always Think Otherwise)

        by Manuel Marín, José Clemente Orozco

        “José Clemente Orozco realized that objects and animals see us with other faces, and he drew the sensations produced by these gazes, as seen in his sketches in this book,” says Marín. Orozco paints objects, shows that they are useful artifacts for seeing things like sensations. They are rare, and their uses aren’t what they should be.

        Forest Dynamics in Heavily Polluted Regions
        Forestry & related industries
        October 1999

        Forest Dynamics in Heavily Polluted Regions

        by Edited by John L Innes, J Oleksyn

        Air pollution has been recognised as a potential problem for forests for nearly 150 years. Today, sulphur dioxide, fluorides, heavy metals and ozone are a significant problem, usually from large scale sources in industrial and urban areas. Problems are exacerbated in those regions where there is a poor understanding of the factors involved in forest decline and destruction and no rigorous control over it has been established.This book is the first report from the International Union of Forest Research Organization’s (IUFRO) Task Force on Environmental Change and provides an assessment of the extent of air pollution impacts on forests in heavily polluted regions. It includes case studies from Russia, Ontario (Canada), California and the Mediterranean region.It is also the first volume in a new book series covering many areas of forestry research, published by CABI Publishing in association with IUFRO.

        Introduced Mammals of the World

        Their History, Distribution and Influence

        by Edited by John L Long

        This reference work presents information on the wide range of mammals that have been introduced by humans. It also provides an indication of any adverse consequences to the local fauna or flora which have resulted. The book includes details of the dates of introductions, the person or agency responsible, the source populations, the locations of release, the fate of the introductions and the impact if known, for over 300 species of mammal. Well illustrated with maps and line drawings, this reference work will enable scientists to assess future potential future introductions (or re-introductions). It also provides a valuable reference for students of ecological systems management and biological conservation.The author, based in Australia, had a lifetime of research into exotic fauna. He was the author of a companion volume, Introduced Birds of the World, published in 1981, which still remains a standard work on its subject.

        Carbohydrates in Grain Legume Seeds

        Improving Nutritional Quality and Agronomic Characteristics

        by Edited by Cliff L Hedley

        The compounds making up the dry weight of seeds play a major role in determining the nutritional quality and ultimately the uses and economic value of the seed. The carbohydrate fraction can be divided into starch, fibre and soluble carbohydrates.The result of a major collaborative programme across Europe, this book covers the chemistry, nutritional value, physiology, processing and breeding/biotechnology of carbohydrates in grain legume seeds. There is currently no book available which covers the strategies for improving carbohydrates in grain legumes (peas, beans etc.) which takes into account both nutritional and agricultural requirements. This book fills that gap. Extensive section covering the topical subject of genetic manipulation techniquesInformation within the book is useful on a world wide scale

        Verantwortung

        Philosophische Grundlagentexte

        by Christoph Halbig, Jörg Löschke, Philipp Schwind

        Die Zuschreibung von Verantwortung für unsere Handlungen ist ein zentraler Bestandteil unserer moralischen Praxis. Aber sie wirft schwierige philosophische Fragen auf. Müssen wir beispielsweise über einen freien Willen verfügen, um für unsere Handlungen verantwortlich zu sein? Ist Verantwortung ein einheitliches Phänomen oder gibt es verschiedene Arten von Verantwortung? Und können wir nur für unsere Taten verantwortlich sein oder beispielsweise auch für unsere Überzeugungen? Der Band versammelt – zum Teil erstmals in deutscher Übersetzung – die zentralen Texte der philosophischen Debatte über Verantwortung, u. a. von Stephen Darwall, Harry G. Frankfurt, H. L. H. Hart, Thomas Nagel, Peter Strawson, Susan Wolf und Iris Marion Young.

        Nematode Behaviour

        by Edited by Randy Gaugler, Anwar L Bilgrami

        Nematode worms are among the most ubiquitous organisms on earth. They include free-living forms as well as parasites of plants, insects, humans and other animals. In recent years there has been an explosion of interest in nematode biology, including the area of nematode behaviour. The latter has, however, until now, not been synthesized into a single comprehensive volume.Nematode Behaviour seeks to redress this imbalance by providing the first comprehensive review of current knowledge of the behaviour of nematodes. Key topics including locomotion and orientation, feeding and reproductive behaviour, and biotic and abiotic interactions are reviewed by leading authorities from the USA, UK, India and New Zealand.

        Biotechnology of Ornamental Plants

        by Edited by R L Geneve, John E Preece, Scott A Merkle

        Ornamental plants include herbaceous plants produced as bedding plants, greenhouse pot plants and cut flowers, as well as bulbs, trees, shrubs and vines. Ornamental plant production is of major and increasing importance worldwide. Basic scientific research in recent years has provided a better understanding of plant regeneration, genetics, growth and development. This has led to the development of technologies which can significantly improve ornamental species. This book reviews recent advances in the biotechnology of ornamentals. For example, genes have recently been identified for flower characteristics and pest resistance and these have been engineered into ornamental species. The book is divided into four main parts and is written by authors from the USA, UK, Canada, Netherlands, Australia and New Zealand. It is aimed primarily at workers in horticulture and plant biotechnology, but will also be of interest to plant physiologists, geneticists and molecular biologists.

        Air Pollution and the Forests of Developing and Rapidly Industrialising Countries

        by Edited by John L Innes, Abu H Haron

        This book examines the importance of air pollution for the forests of rapidly industrialising countries and regions. Its geographical coverage includes South and Central America, Africa, and Asia, including Siberia, China and Korea. The problems presented by air pollution are placed within the more general context of sustainable development within these regions and the historical legacy that they are attempting to deal with. Attention is drawn to the very serious problems associated with poor air quality in cities such as Mexico City and Chongqing, China. Air pollution in these areas is amongst the worst in the world. Several chapters examine the importance of forest fires as a source of air pollution, with particular reference being made to the Southeast Asian fires in recent years. The available information about the effects of this pollution on the surrounding forests is reviewed, and recommendations are made for a better understanding of the impacts. A final chapter reviews the recent developments in air pollution control policies in the different regions covered by the book.

        Trees, Crops and Soil Fertility: Concepts and Research Methods

        by Edited by Goetz Schroth, Fergus L Sinclair

        Successful agroforestry requires an understanding of the complex relationship between trees, crops and soils. This book provides a review of both economic and biophysical aspects of soil use and research in agroforestry, with an emphasis on nutrient-poor forest and savanna soils. Key topics covered include the economics of soil fertility management, cycling of water, nutrients and organic matter, soil structure, and soil biological processes. The book combines synthetic overviews of research results and a review of methods used in research.From the foreword: “The book is written within a particular context - soil fertility development under agroforestry. At first this may seem very specific and thus limited in appeal and application. But over the last decade or so agroforestry research has been one of the most influential in developing new insights into soil biology and fertility and thus provides a very suitable framework for review of progress. Furthermore the influence of trees on soil is profound and of significance beyond agroforestry systems, so the book is likely to be of interest in the wider spheres of agriculture, forestry and ecological sciences.” Mike Swift, TSBF, Nairobi, Kenya
