      Wissen ist Macht: Die Geschichte von HEMED

      by Prof. Uriel Bachrach

      Wissen ist Macht: Die Geschichte von HEMED Wie das israelische Wissenschaftskorps gegründet wurde von Prof. Uriel Bachrach Uriel Bachrach wurde 1926 in Deutschland geboren und wanderte 1933 nach Palästina aus. 1945 begann er ein Chemiestudium an der Hebräischen Universität in Jerusalem. Ende 1947 erkannte der zukünftige israelische Ministerpräsident David Ben-Gurion, dass sobald die britischen Streitkräfte im Mai 1948 Palästina verließen sieben arabische Länder den neu gebildeten jüdischen Staat angreifen würden, in dem zu diesem Zeitpunkt nur 600.000 Menschen lebten – einschließlich Frauen und Kindern und älteren Menschen, darunter viele Überlebende des Holocaust. Der Staat hatte nur 10.000 Gewehre und 3.800 Pistolen, keine Panzerabwehrwaffen und keine Artillerie. Waffen konnten aufgrund eines Embargos nicht aus dem Ausland gekauft werden, daher beschloss Ben-Gurion, Waffen vor Ort zu produzieren. Am 2. Februar 1948 wurde Bachrach zu einem geheimen Treffen einberufen, bei dem er und zwanzig Chemie- und Physikstudenten aufgefordert wurden, die Nation zu retten. Drei Wochen lang drangen sie in die Geheimnisse von Sprengstoff, Brand, Gas und Rauch ein. Allmählich schlossen sich mehr junge Wissenschaftler der Gruppe an und am 17. März 1948 wurde ein IDF-Wissenschaftskorps namens HEMED gegründet. 1949 kehrte Bachrach an die Hebräische Universität zurück und wurde Vorsitzender der Abteilung für Molekularbiologie. Er war Gastprofessor an verschiedenen amerikanischen und europäischen Universitäten und wurde von der Universität Bologna mit der Ehrendoktorwürde ausgezeichnet. Die hebräische Version dieses Buches wurde 2009 veröffentlicht und der Autor erhielt von Präsident Shimon Peres einen Sonderpreis für den Staat Israel. Uriel Bachrach hält in verschiedenen Foren Vorträge über dieses einzigartige Kapitel in der Geschichte Israels. Eine englischsprachige nordamerikanische Ausgabe wurde Anfang 2016 von Samuel Wachtmans Sons, Inc., CA, veröffentlicht. 256 Seiten, 15 x 22,5 cm.

      The Power of Knowledge: The History of HEMED

      by Prof. Uriel Bachrach

      The Power of Knowledge: The History of HEMED How Israel's Science Corps was establishedby Prof. Uriel Bachrach Uriel Bachrach was born in Germany in 1926 and immigrated to Palestine in 1933. In 1945 he began studying chemistry at The Hebrew University in Jerusalem. At the end of 1947, future Israeli prime minister David Ben-Gurion realized that once British forces left Palestine in May 1948, seven Arab countries would attack the newly formed Jewish state that at that time was home to only 600,000 people—including women, children, and the elderly, many of them Holocaust survivors. The State had only 10,000 rifles and 3,800 pistols, no anti-tank weapons, and no artillery. Weapons could not be purchased from other countries due to an embargo, so Ben-Gurion decided to produce weapons locally. On February 2, 1948, Bachrach was summoned to a secret meeting where he and twenty chemistry and physics students were told to save the nation. For three weeks they studied the secrets of explosives, incendiaries, gas, and smoke. Gradually more young scientists joined the group and on March 17, 1948, an IDF Science Corps named HEMED was formed. In 1949, Bachrach returned to The Hebrew University and became the chairman of the Department of Molecular Biology. He has been a visiting professor at various American and European universities and was awarded an honorary doctorate by the University of Bologna in Italy. The Hebrew version of this book was published in 2009 and the author received a special prize for the State of Israel from President Shimon Peres. Uriel Bachrach continues to lecture in various forums about this unique chapter in Israel's history. An English-language eBook edition was published in early 2016 by Samuel Wachtman's Sons, Inc., CA. 256 pages, 15X22.5 cm

      by Lakshmi Jagarlamudi

      The first few chapters introduces the reader to the crop, its origin and distribution, varieties cultivated throughout the country and their characteristics. Later the trade of banana, both international and domestic, is explained along with the ways the fruit is consumed in different parts of the world. A exclusively deals with the nutritive and therapeutic values of banana followed by the post harvest aspects at length in seven chapters with all the latest scientific developments. The last three s explain about the processing and value addition including the waste/by-products utilization. The readers will find it comprehensive with all the information relevant to post harvest aspects of bananas and plantains.

      Veterinary Physiology

      by Satish Kumar Jindal

      This book is intended to serve as a text book of Physiology for students of Veterinary colleges, schools, veterinary technicians, students seeking information about domestic animals. In all, the aim has been to present a clear and concise account of the functioning of various systems of domestic animals. Where appropriate, examples from human and non-domestic animals such as rat and rabbit have been cited. Physiology has now grown into a vast discipline. The book covers and explains the subject as per the latest syllabus being decided by the Veterinary Council of India for veterinary graduates. Finally, the book also elucidates a comprehensive yet a representative description of a large number of challenges faced by veterinary and animal science students.

      Abiotic Stress Tolerance in Crop Plants

      Breeding and Biotechnology

      by Bidhan Roy & Asit Kumar Basu

      Abiotic stresses have become an integral part of crop production. One or other persist either in soil, water or in atmosphere. The information in the areas of injury and tolerant mechanisms, variability for tolerance, breeding and biotechnology for improvement of crop plants against abiotic stresses are lying unorganized in different articles of journals and edited books. This information is presented in this book in organized way with up-to-date citations, which will provide comprehensive literatures of recent advances. More emphasis has been given to elaborate the injury and tolerance mechanisms, and development of improved genotypes against stress environments. This book also deals with the plants symptoms of particular abiotic stress, reclamation of soil and crop/cropping pattern to over come the effect of adverse condition(s). Each has been laid out with systematic approaches to develop abiotic stress tolerant genotypes using biotechnological tools. Use of molecular markers in stress tolerance and development of transgenic also have been detailed. Air pollution and climate change are the hot topic of the days. Thus, the effect of air pollution and climate change on crop plants have been detailed in the final three chapters of this book. Under abiotic stress, plant produces a large quantity of free radicals (oxidants), which have been elaborated in a separate ‘Oxidative Stress. This book has been divided into seven major parts- physical stress (salt), water stresses (drought and waterlogging), temperature stresses (heat and cold), metal toxicities (aluminium, iron, cadmium, lead, nickel, chromium, copper, zinc etc) and non-metal toxicities (boron and arsenic), oxidative stress, and finally atmospheric stresses (air pollution, radiation and climate change). This book will be of greater use for the students and researchers, particularly Plant Breeders and Biotechnologists as well as the Botanists, to understand the injury and tolerance mechanisms, and subsequently improvement of crop genotypes for abiotic stresses.
