Epigenetics: Linking Genotype and Phenotype in Development and Evolution by Benedikt Hallgrimsson Ph.D., Brian K. Hall Ph.D. Language: English | 2011 | ISBN: 0520267095 | 472 pages | PDF | 10,9 MB Illuminating the processes and patterns that link genotype to phenotype, epigenetics seeks to explain features, characters, and developmental mechanisms that can only be understood in terms of interactions that arise above the level of the gene. With chapters written by leading authorities, this volume offers a broad integrative survey of epigenetics. Approaching this complex subject from a variety of perspectives, it presents a broad, historically grounded view that demonstrates the utility of this approach for understanding complex biological systems in development, disease, and evolution. Chapters cover such topics as morphogenesis and organ formation, conceptual foundations, and cell differentiation, and together demonstrate that the integration of epigenetics into mainstream developmental biology is essential for answering fundamental questions about how phenotypic traits are produced.  Environmental Site Layout Planning: Solar Access, Microclimate and Passive Cooling in Urban Areas (BR 380) (Bre) by P.J. Littlefair Language: English | 2010 | ISBN: 1860813399 | 160 pages | PDF | 7,8 MB This book provides comprehensive design guidance on urban layout to ensure good access to solar gain, daylighting and passive cooling. It aims to enable designers to produce comfortable, energy-efficient buildings surrounded by pleasant outdoor spaces, within an urban context that minimizes energy consumption and the effects of pollution. The book is the principal output of a project jointly funded by the European Commission JOULE programme and national funding agencies including the UK Department of the Environment, Transport and the Regions. The European project is coordinated by BRE and includes the University of Athens, LEMA (University of Liege) and AICIA (University of Seville). This book is divided into six main chapters. Chapter 1 sets the scene, outlining the importance of each of the main environmental factors affecting site layout. Chapters 2-6 then cover the urban design process, from the selection of a site for a new development down to the design and landscaping of individual buildings and the spaces around them.  Environmental Science: Understanding Our Changing Earth by The American Geological Institute Language: English | 2010 | ISBN: 142831170X | 464 pages | PDF | 34,5 MB ENVIRONMENTAL SCIENCE: UNDERSTANDING OUR CHANGING EARTH, offers a unique approach to teaching both Earth Science and Environmental Science, by incorporating an Earth Systems approach. Created by the American Geological Institute with funding support from the National Science Foundation, ENVIRONMENTAL SCIENCE: UNDERSTANDING OUR CHANGING EARTH shows the interconnected nature of the Earth systems and builds a foundation for life-long learning. An interdisciplinary environmental science curriculum that emphasizes Earth systems helps students develop the underlying science and knowledge that forms the foundation for understanding and policy discussion. Moreover, the critical component of environmental science is the focus on how earth systems interact with human society. This subject uniquely ties the physical sciences with social sciences, constituting a unique opportunity to demonstrate the widest application of science to life. Within this context of human interaction is the need to address concepts of risk and cost-benefit. Students will be taught to understand the process of decision-making made by policy-makers when using earth system information.  Environmental Science: Principles, Connections and Solutions by G. Tyler Miller, Scott Spoolman Language: English | 2007 | ISBN: 0495383376 | 575 pages | PDF | 30,2 MB Environmental issues affect every part of your life. ENVIRONMENTAL SCIENCE: WORKING WITH THE EARTH, Twelfth Edition, shows you how nature works, how we interact with it, and how we have sustained-and can continue to sustain-our relationship with the earth by applying nature's lessons to our economies and individual lifestyles. This central theme of sustainability-the ability to adapt to changing environmental conditions-is clarified by an emphasis on natural capital (resources) and degradation, solutions, trade-offs, and the importance of individuals. If you have little or no science background, the book provides you with a solid grounding in the basics that will help you better understand environmental science concepts. Case studies-on topics ranging from the importance of insects to the reintroduction of wolves in Yellowstone Park to the world of nanotechnology-illustrate key topics and issues that affect your life. These cases inspire How Would You Vote? questions, which sharpen your critical thinking by asking you to consider facts, conflicting solutions, and trade-offs surrounding the issues, and then cast your vote. Multimedia resources offer other ways to learn.  Environmental Encyclopedia: 2 Volume set by Deirdre S. Blanchfield Language: English | 2011 | ISBN: 1414487363 | 1967 pages | PDF | 52,7 MB This fully updated, full-color fourth edition of the award-winning Environmental Encyclopedia features approximately 1, 300 signed articles providing in-depth, worldwide coverage of environmental topics and issues.  Environmental Economics: A Very Short Introduction by Stephen Smith Language: English | 2011 | ISBN: 0199583587 | 136 pages | MOBI | 0,69 MB In this Very Short Introduction, Stephen Smith shows how the field of environmental economics looks at how economic activity and policy can affect the environment in which we live. The book discusses environmental issues including pollution control, reducing environmental damage, global climate change policies, questions about how we should balance environmental and economic considerations, and what form government policies should take. In recent years, Smith reveals, many economists have argued for greater use of incentives such as pollution charges and emissions trading rather than more traditional direct regulation of polluters. Including many illustrative case studies, this book offers an illuminating introduction to an exciting field of economics.  Entrepreneurial DNA: The Breakthrough Discovery that Aligns Your Business to Your Unique Strengths by Joe Abraham Language: English | 2011 | ISBN: 0071754512 | 272 pages | MOBI | 0,95 MB For centuries entrepreneurs have been placed in one box. In fact, the common mindset has been, "If it worked for one entrepreneur, it will work for every entrepreneur. After all, entrepreneurs are all the same."  Engineering Ethics: Peace, Justice, and the Earth by George D. Catalano Language: English | 2006 | ISBN: 1598290908 | 80 pages | PDF | 3,4 MB Engineering Ethics: Peace, Justice, and the Earth offers a new ethical foundation for the engineering profession.  by William H. Hayt Professor Emeritus, Jack Kemmerly, Steven M. Durbin Language: English | 2011 | ISBN: 0073529575 | 880 pages | PDF | 13,4 MB The hallmark feature of this classic text is its focus on the student - it is written so that students may teach the science of circuit analysis to themselves. Terms are clearly defined when they are introduced, basic material appears toward the beginning of each chapter and is explained carefully and in detail, and numerical examples are used to introduce and suggest general results. Simple practice problems appear throughout each chapter, while more difficult problems appear at the end of chapters, following the order of presentation of text material. This introduction and resulting repetition provide an important boost to the learning process.
