 John Overton, "Aid and Development " English | ISBN: 0367414848 | 2020 | 256 pages | PDF | 6 MB This book provides an overview of what aid is, how it has changed over time and how it is practiced, as well as debates about whether aid works, for whom and what its future might be.  Agricultural practices and policies for carbon sequestration in soil By J M Kimble; R Lal; R F Follett 2002 | 512 Pages | ISBN: 1566705819 | PDF | 28 MB The potential to mitigate greenhouse gas emissions and global climate change is one factor diving agricultural policy development of programs that might pay farmers to implement practices to sequester carbon. With chapters by economists, policy makers, farmers, land managers, energy company representatives, and soil scientists, Agricultural Practices and Policies for Carbon Sequestration in Soil explores a broad range of topics. It examines topics such as the effects of soil tillage and mulch rate, soil monitoring and assessment, soil fertility management, policy options, and the economic issues associated with carbon sequestration. This volume caps a "series" of books from leading researchers on carbon sequestration in soils by integrating the science with the economic and policy issues surrounding it. It provides agricultural scientists, farmers, and policy makers with innovative and environmentally friendly practices for improved land management and crop production. Agricultural Practices and Policies for Carbon Sequestration in Soil helps to identify strategies that can lead to widespread adoption of management practices that will enhance productivity, the soil carbon pool, and the overall environment.--COVER.

 Advances in Product Family and Product Platform Design: Methods & Applications By Zhila Pirmoradi, G. Gary Wang (auth.), Timothy W. Simpson, Jianxin (Roger) Jiao, Zahed Siddique, Katja Hölttä-Otto (eds.) 2014 | 819 Pages | ISBN: 1461479363 | PDF | 16 MB Advances in Product Family and Product Platform Design: Methods & Applications highlights recent advances that have been made to support product family and product platform design along with successful applications in industry. This book provides not only motivation for product family and product platform design (i.e., address questions about "why and when should we platform") but also methods and tools to support the design and development of families of products based on shared platforms (i.e. address the "how" and "what" questions about platforming). It begins with a general overview of product family design to introduce the general reader to the topic and then progress to more advanced topics and design theory to help designers, engineers, and project managers plan, architect, and implement platform-based product development strategies for their company. Finally, successful industry applications provide readers and practitioners with case studies and "talking points" to become platform advocates and leaders within their organization.
