        Mary and Philip

        The marriage of Tudor England and Habsburg Spain

        by Alexander Samson

        Mary I, eldest daughter of Henry VIII, was Queen of England from 1553 until her death in 1558. For much of this time she ruled alongside her husband, King Philip II of Spain, forming a co-monarchy that put England at the heart of early modern Europe. In this book, Alexander Samson presents a bold reassessment of Mary and Philip's reign, rescuing them from the neglect they have suffered at the hands of generations of historians. The co-monarchy of Mary I and Philip II put England at the heart of early modern Europe. This positive reassessment of their joint reign counters a series of parochial, misogynist and anti-Catholic assumptions, correcting the many myths that have grown up around the marriage and explaining the reasons for its persistent marginalisation in the historiography of sixteenth-century England. Using new archival discoveries and original sources, the book argues for Mary as a great Catholic queen, while fleshing out Philip's important contributions as king of England.

        Bull Mountain

        Roman

        by Brian Panowich, Johann Christoph Maass

        Der Burroughs-Clan ist der größte Anbieter von Schwarzgebranntem, Hasch und Crystal Meth in Georgia und Umgebung. Seit Generationen hat er Bull Mountain fest im Griff. Und er verteidigt seine Stellung mit allen Mitteln. Um sich aus diesem Familiensumpf zu ziehen, wurde Clayton Burroughs Sheriff. Doch er weiß, dass er und Bull Mountain erst dann Frieden gefunden haben werden, wenn es ihm gelingt, seinen Brüdern endgültig das Handwerk zu legen. Schon einige Male haben das FBI und die Drogenbehörde versucht, die Burroughs-Brüder hinter Schloss und Riegel zu bringen. Nie ist es ihnen gelungen. Jetzt scheint ein junger, ehrgeiziger Agent den perfekten Plan zu haben. Doch er braucht Clayton Burroughs' Hilfe. Damit bricht ein Kampf los, an dessen Ende es nur einen Sieger geben kann – und viele Tote. »Ich kann dieses Buch nicht oft genug empfehlen. Es wird die Fans von Daniel Woodrell ebenso begeistern wie die von Dennis Lehane und William Gay. Erstklassig!« Tom Franklin »Bruder gegen Bruder im drogenverdammten Süden.« James Ellroy

        Neonatal Pig

        Development and Survival

        by Edited by Mike A Varley

        The pig industry is among the most technologically advanced of all the animal industries. Despite this, mortality is about 12% of all piglets born alive. This figure has not altered substantially in recent years, and is considerably higher than for other farm animals. The biology of neonatal mortality in pigs has generally been poorly understood. There is therefore a great need for information on this subject and this book is the first to provide a comprehensive review. The book is divided into three main parts, covering: genetics and physiology of the neonatal pig; the gut and nutrition; and diseases, behaviour and husbandry. Although single factors are often ascribed as the cause of death, it is often the case that there are multifactorial components involved. Written by leading authors from Europe, North America and Australia, the book is invaluable for advanced students, research workers, practitioners and advisers in animal science, veterinary medicine and the pig industry.

        Genetics of the Pig

        by Edited by Max F Rothschild, Anatoly Ruvinsky.

        The understanding of pig genetics and genomics has advanced significantly in recent years, creating fresh insights into biological processes. This comprehensive reference work discusses pig genetics and its integration with livestock management and production technology to improve performance. Fully updated throughout to reflect advances in the subject, this new edition also includes new information on genetic aspects of domestication, colour variation, genomics and pig breeds, with contributions from international experts active in the field.

        Growth of the Pig

        by Edited by Gilbert R Hollis

        Growth and development are obvious limiting factors in animal production. This book reviews our current knowledge of the growth and development of the pig. It covers basic aspects of developmental processes and environmental influences and their application to pig production. It describes new approaches to our understanding of biological mechanisms, that will permit producers to increase protein while decreasing fat in food products, and improve control of muscling, growth and muscle partitioning. The potential for genetic improvement as a result of mapping the pig genome is also described. The book is based on papers presented by leading research workers at the Pork Industry Conference on Swine Growth held in November 1992.

        Weaner Pig

        Nutrition and Management

        by Edited by Mike A Varley, Julian Wiseman

        Weaning represents a significant challenge to every young piglet and the success of the process is crucial to the lifetime performance of the animal. The transition from a liquid diet to one that is usually based on dry food ingredients is accompanied by major changes in digestive physiology, immune status and social and physical environments. Successful weaning is, therefore, the key to effective growth, feed efficiency and the subsequent development of the pig. This book has been developed from a British Society of Animal Science occasional meeting, held in September 2000. The Weaner Pig: Nutrition and Management brings together all the scientific disciplines involved in the pre and post-weaning biology of the piglet, concentrating on:Growth/developmentNutritionImmunology/healthEthologyThe physical environment

        Manual of Pig Production in the Tropics

        by H Serres

        The pig is one of the earliest domesticated animals and plays an integral part in a number of peasant economies in the tropics, for example in Oceania and Southeast Asia. In several African countries and others such as Thailand, increasingly intensive pig production has played a significant role in the overall economic growth and the feeding of an expanding urgan population.Furthermore, although in some circumstances pigs do compete with humans for food resources, they are also very versatile at utilizing byproducts and wastes that are not suitable for human consumption.There is therefore considerable potential for developing pig production in the tropics, and this book provides an accessible guide to the subject for students, farmers and advisory workers. It is translated from an original French edition compiled by the Institut d'Élevage et de Médecine Vétérinaire des Pays Tropicaux.
