ERNST & YOUNG
VEECHI CURTIS
IFRSs, the standards set by the
International Accounting Standards
Board (IASB), are complex and
sometimes obscure. Understanding their
implications
and
applying
them
appropriately requires something special;
and that is why International GAAP®
2015 is the essential tool for anyone
applying,
auditing,
interpreting,
regulating, studying and teaching
international financial reporting. It
provides expert interpretation and practical guidance for busy
professionals, and includes, in every chapter, detailed analysis of
how complex financial reporting problems can be resolved
appropriately and effectively. The International Financial
Reporting Group of Ernst & Young includes financial reporting
specialists from throughout the world. Complex technical
accounting issues are explained clearly in a practical working
context that enables immediate understanding of the point at
issue.
Bookkeeping Essentials For Dummies is
the must-have guide to understanding
Australian bookkeeping. Find out how to
create a new set of accounts, figure out
the best ways to record income and
expenses, and much more.
This second edition has been updated to
fully reflect the impact of the cloud, and
provides practical tips for working with
MYOB, QuickBooks, Reckon and Xero.
Discover how bank feeds and automated
reconciliations transform everyday bookkeeping, and how you
can use these features to save time and make your bookkeeping
processes more efficient.
• Choose the right accounting software
• Create systems for recording expenses, payments, receipts and
sales
• Reconcile accounts and chase the money you're owed
• Process employee pay and generate payroll reports
• Understand GST and complete Business Activity Statements
International GAAP® 2015 is the only globally focused work on
IFRSs. It is not constrained by any individual country’s
legislation or financial reporting regulations, and it ensures an
international consistency of approach unavailable elsewhere. It
shows how difficult practical issues should be approached in the
complex, global world of international financial reporting,
where IFRSs have become the accepted financial reporting
system in more than 100 countries. This integrated approach
provides a unique level of authoritative material for anyone
involved in preparing, interpreting or auditing company
accounts, for regulators, academic researchers and for all
students of accountancy.
Say goodbye to dry explanations and confusing jargon.
Eliminate the stress of poor bookkeeping systems, and do your
books efficiently with this lively resource.

Profiling The Fraudster
Lean Auditing
Removing the Mask to Prevent and Detect Fraud
Driving Added Value and Efficiency in Internal
Audit
SIMON PADGETT
JAMES C. PATERSON
The typical corporation loses 5% of its
annual revenue to fraud. This translated
to a total worldwide loss due to fraud of
$2.9 trillion. This book provides a new
investigative
tool
for
fraud
investigators--profiling a fraudster. The
author takes a step-by-step approach
from the Fraud Triangle to identify
characteristics in employees that should
sound alarm bells both for those
currently employed by the company as
well as potential new hires. This book covers a wide range of
organizational fraud types including abuse of power,
embezzlement, computer fraud, expense abuse, and much more.
Financial constraints and an increased
regulatory
focus
on
corporate
governance have placed Internal Audit
departments under increasing pressure to
get the most out of their resources.
However, there is a tendency for audits
to get bogged down in detail, reducing
productivity and restricting the value
which Internal Audit should add to the
business. Lean techniques can improve
both productivity and value, and this
book will highlight the principles and best practices that mark
out successful Internal Audit departments, allowing audit
professionals to apply these techniques in day-to-day practice.

Legumes under Environmental
Stress
Yield, Improvement and Adaptations
Editor PARVAIZ AHMAD
The improvement of crop species has
long been a goal since cultivation began
thousands of years ago. To feed an ever
increasing world population will require
a great increase in food production.
Wheat, corn, rice, potato and legumes
are expected to lead as the most
important crops in the world. Due to
environmental fluctuations legumes are
often exposed to different environmental
stresses, leading to decreased yield and problems with growth
and development of the legumes. The present work will cover
the physiobiochemical, molecular and omic approaches and
responses of legumes towards environmental stress.
Contributors will be active researchers and practitioners from
international institutions and organisations. The book will be a
valuable and much-needed resource for plant scientists, breeders
and agricultural researchers worldwide.

UAE and the Gulf
Architectural Acoustics Illustrated
Architecture and Urbanism Now
MICHAEL A. ERMANN
Editor KEVIN MITCHELL & Editor GEORGE KATODRYTIS
Architectural
Acoustics
Illustrated
translates the quantitative and qualitative
content of acoustics into the graphic
language of architecture. Text, ample
illustrations, and animations outline the
physics of sound, the design of spaces
for listening, and best-practices for
limiting and mitigating noise in
buildings.
Using a highly visual format, Ermann
explains the principles of architectural acoustics and its practical
application in building projects. Reflecting the latest materials
and design techniques, Architectural Acoustics Illustrated is the
most understandable guide to a complex subject.
At the end of the 20th century, Dubai
attracted international media attention as
the world sought to make sense of the
city’s extraordinary growth. Exuberant
projects such as the Burj Arab, the Burj
Khalifa and the Palm Islands attracted
investment in dreams to transform the
region. While the global financial crisis
kept dreams from becoming reality, this
issue of AD seeks to present a view of
architecture and urbanism in the United
Arab Emirates (UAE) and other states in the wider Gulf
Cooperation Council (GCC) at a time when greater economic
stability promises new beginnings. The issue presents examples
of architecture that transcends preoccupation with fabricating
images, and traces the process of making contemporary Gulf
cities, from material tectonics to large-scale masterplans. By
presenting the architecture of UAE and the Gulf within the
context of broader regional developments and global trends, it
highlights how projects in the UAE, Qatar, Kuwait and Saudi
Arabia have contributed to unprecedented urban growth, while
emphasising the continuing environmental challenges of
building in the region. In addition to highlighting various
sustainable initiatives intended to counteract these challenges,
the issue also explores how computational design and new
technologies are being innovatively employed to mitigate the
impact of arid climates.
Directed to architects and architecture students, engineers,
musicians, acousticians, building professionals, and interested
laypeople, the book offers a “first-look” at the interaction of
sound and space, and a comprehensive “how-to” practical guide
for designing with acoustics in mind.

How Delegation Can Give you Space to Succeed
GAIL THOMAS
The Gift of Time explores the areas of:
Delegation and SME; Delegation in
corporate management and Delegation at
home.
Written in a professional but informal
tone, and always honest, it includes
chapters by guest writers, and case
studies for each section.
The book sets out to: Teach the reader
that delegation leads to a happier job, a
happier life, an ability to do more of
what you love, a means of doing less of
what you don’t, space to get creative and thus grow career,
business or time with family. It then supports this premise with
research on the value of delegation (in currency – currently £300
billion per annum in the UK). It will communicate the attitudes
and barriers to delegation and the manifestations of poor
delegation on workload, team, department and business and
identify profiles traits in regard to delegation. The second part of
the book will teach the basic principles of delegation and
support this teaching with case studies.

The Essential Manager
How to Thrive in the Global Information Jungle
Supply Chain Metrics that Matter
JAMES W. CORTADA, Madison, United States
LORA M. CECERE
This
book
links
the
information-influenced
work
of
managers to fundamental changes in the
economy, in which the further
integration of global industries, markets,
and national economies are themselves
influencing managerial processes and
procedures.
Most companies want to move their
supply chains from a focus on cost to one
of value. However, to complete this
journey, they must answer the question,
"What is value?” Leaders are inundated
with a myriad of metrics, and there is no
road map on which metrics matter to
improve market capitalization. The goal
of this book is to help companies
understand the role of supply chain in
improving market capitalization and to
determine which metrics matter the most
in improving value.

Biosurfaces
A Materials Science and Engineering Perspective
KANTESH BALANI, VIVEK VERMA, ARVIND AGARWAL &
ROGER NARAYAN
This book takes a multidisciplinary
approach to the paradigm of biosurfaces
and biomaterials through experts
working in the arena of interfacing
materials with bio-engineering. Starting
with the concepts of biomaterials, the
book builds upon the real-life
applications elucidating the contrasting
requirements of materials in their
interfaces with biological environment.
A
birdseye
overview
of critical
requirements is provided, followed by a description of the
fundamental mechanisms of protein adsorption, platelet and
cell-adhesion. Case studies on mechanical properties, and laser
engineering of surfaces that fulfill the critical requirements in
constructing successful implants are included. The concept of
non-wetting, required especially for anti-biofouling surfaces, via
super-hydrophobicity will be discussed. Ethics, legal issues, and
a perspective on the future of the biomaterials field conclude the
book.
READERSHIP: Ideal as a graduate textbook, this book is aimed
at helping design effective biomaterials, taking into account
the complex interactions that occur at the interface when a
synthetic material is inserted into a living system. Surface
reactivity, biochemistry, substrates, cleaning, preparation, and
coatings are presented, with numerous case studies and
applications throughout.

Construction Innovation

Construction Industry

ABBOTT
Portland State University
MEI-YUNG LEUNG, ISABELLE YEE SHAN CHAN & CARY L.
COOPER
Simplistic and vague assumptions and
sometimes outright misunderstandings
on the nature of construction innovation
and its implications are an obstacle to
clear thinking and reasoning about the
important innovation challenges facing
the construction industry. This book gets
to grips with the real-life complexity of
construction innovation, and does this
whilst avoiding simply reproducing the
complexities of real-life construction
innovation within the book itself. This book develops simpler
and more general concepts, in order to make sense of what is the
reality of construction innovation and takes a fresh look at what
is actually hidden inside the broad term “construction
innovation”. Rather than glossing over difficult conceptual
issues, this book instead looks explicitly at the actual challenges
that conceptual issues entail and seeks to open up fresh
intellectual space for reflection on construction innovation.
With its task complexity, tight
timeframes,
complicated
work
relationships
and
poor
working
environments, the construction industry
is recognised as stressful.
This book aims to enhance the
performance of construction personnel
by presenting an integrated and
comprehensive
stress
management
model. Though illustrating both how
construction personnel are affected by
various stressors and how this influences their performance the
model also explains how stress levels can be managed by
dealing with the stressors and using appropriate adaptive coping
behaviours.
Stress Management in the Construction Industry is based on an
extensive literature review, on survey studies and on scenario
analyses to thoroughly investigate the components of stress
management for construction personnel, including the multiple
dimensions of the stress they experience, the nature of their
stressors, the coping behaviors they adopt, and the consequences
of stress for their performance. The book aims to help
researchers in construction management and in occupational
health and safety understand the issues and theory, as well as
offering practical recommendations for professional bodies and
policy advisors.

HERBERT ROBINSON, BARRY SYMONDS, BARRY
GILBERTSON & BEN ILOZOR
London South Bank University
THOMAS J. KELLEHER JR., G. SCOTT WALTERS & SMITH,
CURRIE & HANCOCK LLP
Smith, Currie & Hancock LLP
The drive towards environmentally friendly buildings and
infrastructure has led to a growing interest in providing design
solutions underpinned by the core principles of sustainability to
balance economic, social and environmental factors.
The book is a practical introduction to
the significant legal topics and questions
affecting
construction
industry
professionals, whether they work for
general contractors, subcontractors,
owners, or surety bond agents. It's not
intended to cover legal theory or serve as
a lawyers guide to case law and
commentary. The book's strength has
always been its "common-sense"
approach, clear, unaffected writing and
focus on writing for construction
professionals rather than lawyers. The new edition will feature a
new chapter on Public-Private Partnerships (P3), an emerging
solution for financing large-scale projects that, as well as a new
chapter on international construction projects as American firms
continue to pursue work overseas. Tom Kelleher and his
colleagues will thoroughly review the new agreements produced
by AIA, AGC, EJCDC, and other, and offer advice for
migrating to the new forms, identify similarities between the old
forms and the new, and highlight any issues or areas of concern
in the new agreements. Samples of documents will be provided
on an accompanying website for ease of reference.
Design Economics for the Built Environment: Impact of
sustainability on project evaluation presents new directions,
reflecting the need to recognise the impact of climate change
and the importance of sustainability in project evaluation. The
aim is to provide a new approach to understanding design
economics in the context of the changing policy environment,
legislative and regulatory framework, and increasing economic,
environmental and social pressure as result of the sustainability
agenda.
The book follows a structured approach from theories and
principles in the earlier chapters, to the practical applications
and emerging techniques focusing on value and social,
economic and environmental considerations in making design
decisions. It starts with the policy context, building on various
theories and principles such as, capital cost, value of design and
resource-based theories, the new rules of measurement (NRM)
to explore cost planning, the relationship between height and
costs, key socio-economic and environmental variables for
design appraisal, eco-cost/value ratio (EVR), whole life theory
and the treatment of carbon emission as external costs,
productivity and efficiency, fiscal drivers and legal framework
for carbon reduction, procurement and allocation of risks in
contracts.

crystalline materials.
Part 3 treats more advanced topics on space-group symmetry,
and covers crystal lattices, point groups and crystal classes,
space-group symbols and their use, lattice complexes,
normalizers of space groups, and magnetic subperiodic groups
and magnetic space groups.
There are eight new chapters in this 6th edition of Volume A,
and five chapters have been revised. The layout of the
space-group tables has been simplified as the sub- and
supergroup data are now available in Volume A1, and there are
new general-position diagrams for the cubic space groups.
Additional diagrams showing tilted, perspective views of some
of the more complex cubic space groups are also provided.

emerging field of cooperative catalysis.
The authors focus on the design and
development of novel high-performance
catalysts for applications in asymmetric
synthesis, covering a broad range of
topics, from the latest progress in
dual-metal catalysis and bifunctional
catalysis to metal-organo catalysis and
enzyme catalysis. The chapters are
classified according to the type of cooperating activating group,
and describe in detail the different strategies of cooperative
activation, highlighting their respective advantages and pitfalls.
As a result, readers will learn about the different concepts of
cooperative catalysis, their corresponding modes of operation
and their applications, such that they can find a solution to a
specific synthetic catalysis problem.
With its practical approach, this will be a valuable source of

Introduction to Islamic Economics
How to Make and Use Forecasts
Theory and Application
MAURY HARRIS
HOSSEIN ASKARI, ZAMIR IQBAL & ABBAS MIRAKHOR
Everybody forecasts and listens to
forecasters, whether they are investors or
not. Forecasting is an essential and
unavoidable part our lives. Decisions
about future outcomes are critical for
success or failure in everything from
marriage, career choices, business, and
investments. No one always makes the
right choices. Yet being right the
majority of the time, especially for
investors and businesses, is everyone’s
goal.
This book is about improving almost anyone’s ability to make
more correct decisions. The book:
• Provides sobering evidence on just how hard it is to
successfully forecast the economy
• Showcases how and why economists succeed and sometimes
fail to correctly forecast the future
• Examines what has made economic forecasters relatively
successful and others not so successful in order to learn from
past mistakes
Introduction to Islamic Economics:
Theory and Application provides an
overview of the organizing principles,
key institutions, and fundamentals of an
Islamic economy. With discussion of the
characteristics, rationale, objectives and
instruments at work, the book addresses
the core economic principles underlying
a system based on the foundational
teachings of Islam, and examines the
implications for economic policies.
Social welfare, economic justice, market functionality,
efficiency, and equity are explored from an Islamic perspective,
and the roles of Islamic fiscal and monetary policy are used to
illustrate contemporary applications.
• Examine the Islamic economic system and its institutional
scaffolding
• Differentiate between the dominant conventional economy and
one based on Islam
• Understand the critical conditions for a just, well-balanced,
stable, and growing economy
• Clarify the role of State, public policy, and risk-sharing
financial system.
Chief UBS US Economist Maury Harris is uniquely equipped to
reveal how much can be learned from economists’ successes and
mistakes.
Introduction to Islamic Economics provides a comprehensive
overview of the system and the industry it built, for a deeper
understanding of this growing sector.

Maintaining a stable level of power
quality in the distribution network is a
growing challenge due to increased use
of power electronics converters in
domestic, commercial and industrial
sectors. Power quality deterioration is
manifested in increased losses; poor
utilization of distribution systems;
mal-operation of sensitive equipment and
disturbances to nearby consumers,
protective devices, and communication
systems. However, as the energy-saving benefits will result in
increased AC power processed through power electronics
converters, there is a compelling need for improved
understanding of mitigation techniques for power quality

Radio Frequency Identification and
Sensors
From RFID to Chipless RFID
ETIENNE PERRET
This book deals with the field of identification and sensors,
more precisely the possibility of collecting information remotely
with RF waves (RFID). The book introduces the technology of
chipless RFID starting from classical RFID and barcode, and
explores the field of identification and sensors without wire,
without batteries, without chip, and with tags that can even be
printed on paper.
A technique for automatic design of UHF RFID tags is
presented , aiming at making the tags as insensitive as possible
to the environment (with the ability to increase the reading range
reliability), or, conversely, making them sensitive in order to
produce sensors, meanwhile keeping their unique ID. The RFID
advantages are discussed, along with its numerous features, and
comparisons with the barcode technology are presented. After
that, the new chipless RFID technology is introduced on the
basis of the previous conclusions. Original technological
approaches are introduced and discussed in order to demonstrate
the practical and economic potential of the chipless technology.

Magnetotails in the Solar System
Visualizing Geology
ANDREAS KEILING
4th Edition
All magnetized planets in our solar
system (Mercury, Earth, Jupiter, Saturn,
Uranus, and Neptune) interact strongly
with the solar wind and possess well
developed magnetotails. It is not only the
strongly magnetized planets that have
magnetotails. Mars and Venus have no
global intrinsic magnetic field, yet they
possess induced magnetotails. Comets
have magnetotails that are formed by the
draping of the interplanetary magnetic field. In the case of
planetary satellites (moons), the magnetotail refers to the wake
region behind the satellite in the flow of either the solar wind or
the magnetosphere of its parent planet. The largest magnetotail
of all in our solar system is the heliotail, the “magnetotail” of the
heliosphere. The variety of solar wind conditions, planetary
rotation rates, ionospheric conductivity, and physical
dimensions provide an outstanding opportunity to extend our
understanding of the influence of these factors on magnetotail
processes and structures.

WILLIAM M. WHITE, Cornell University
This book provides a comprehensive
introduction to radiogenic and stable
isotope geochemistry. Beginning with a
brief overview of nuclear physics and
nuclear origins, it then reviews
radioactive decay schemes and their use
in geochronology. A following chapter
covers the closely related techniques
such as fission-track and carbon-14
dating. Subsequent chapters cover
nucleosynthetic anomalies in meteorites and early solar system
chronology and the use of radiogenic isotopes in understanding
the evolution of the Earth’s mantle, crust, and oceans. Attention
then turns to stable isotopes and after reviewing the basic
principles involved, the book explores their use in topics as
diverse as mantle evolution, archeology and paleontology, ore
formation, and, particularly, paleoclimatology. A following
chapter explores recent developments including unconventional
stable isotopes, mass-independent fractionation, and isotopic
‘clumping’. The final chapter reviews the isotopic variation in
the noble gases, which result from both radioactive decay and
chemical fractionations.
ROBIN GILL, Royal Holloway University of London
Chemical principles are fundamental to
the Earth sciences, and geoscience
students increasingly require a firm grasp
of basic chemistry to succeed in their

highly regarded textbook introduces the
student to such geo-relevant’ chemistry,
presented in the same lucid and
accessible style as earlier editions, but
the new edition has been strengthened in
its coverage of environmental geoscience and incorporates a
new chapter introducing isotope geochemistry.
The book comprises three broad sections. The first (Chapters
1–4) deals with the basic physical chemistry of geological
processes. The second (Chapters 5–8) introduces the
wave-mechanical view of the atom and explains the various
types of chemical bonding that give Earth materials their diverse
and distinctive properties. The final chapters (9–11) survey the
geologically relevant elements and isotopes, and explain their
formation and their abundances in the cosmos and the Earth.
The book concludes with an extensive glossary of terms;
appendices cover basic maths, explain basic solution chemistry,
and list the chemical elements and the symbols, units and

The cryosphere, that region of the world
where water is temporarily or
permanently frozen, plays a crucial role
on our planet. Recent developments in
remote sensing techniques, and the
acquisition of new data sets, have
resulted in significant advances in our
understanding of all components of the
cryosphere and its processes.
Measuring sea-level change – be that rise
or fall – is one of the most pressing
scientific goals of our time and requires
robust
scientific
approaches
and
techniques. This Handbook aims to
provide a practical guide to readers
interested in this challenge, from the
initial design of research approaches
through to the practical issues of data
collection and interpretation from a
diverse range of coastal environments. Building on thirty years
of international research, the Handbook comprises 38 chapters
that are authored by leading experts from around the world.
The Handbook will be an important resource to scientists
interested and involved in understanding sea-level changes
across a broad range of disciplines, policy makers wanting to
appreciate our current state of knowledge of sea-level change
over different timescales, and many teachers at the university
level, as well as advanced-level undergraduates and
postgraduate research students, wanting to learn more about
sea-level change.
This book, based on contributions from 40 leading experts,
offers a comprehensive and authoritative overview of the
methods, techniques and recent advances in applications of
remote sensing of the cryosphere. Examples of the topics
covered include:
• snow extent, depth, grain-size and impurities
• surface and subsurface melting
• glaciers
• accumulation over the Greenland and Antarctica ice sheets
• ice thickness and velocities
• gravimetric measurements from space
• sea, lake and river ice
• frozen ground and permafrost
• fieldwork activities
• recent and future cryosphere-oriented missions and
experiments
All figures are in color and provide an excellent visual
accompaniment to the technical and scientific aspect of the
book.

Getting Started in Stock Analysis,
Illustrated Edition
MICHAEL C. THOMSETT
Investors and traders are constantly
seeking the “magic bullet” for
identifying profitable trades and, equally
important, for timing both entry and exit.
Fundamental and technical traders face a
set of problems making this a true
challenge. In the 1940s, the average
holding period of investments was 8
years. By 2012, it is closer to 8 weeks.
This is due to the reduced cost of trading,
ease of access via the Internet, and
changes in the overall culture of the stock market. This book
demonstrates how investors (buy-and-hold, value, and growth)
can use fundamental analysis to improve their selection of
stocks and other securities. It further demonstrates how traders
(day and swing traders, speculators, short-term traders) can
make use of various technical indicators to improve entry and
exit while managing risks. Finally, the book demonstrates how
both fundamental and technical skills can and should be used
together, in recognition of the fact that each are aspects of the
same cause and effect within the market. Most analysis books
focus on one or the other.

How Flavor Works
Phycotoxins
Chemistry and Biochemistry
NAK-EON CHOI & JUNG H. HAN
Frito-Lay Inc.
Editor LUIS M. BOTANA & Editor AMPARO ALFONSO
University of Santiago de Compostela
Taste is the number one driving force in
the decision to purchase a food product
and food consumption is the most critical
function for living organisms to obtain
the energy and resources essential to
their vitality. Flavor and aroma are
therefore universally important concepts:
intrinsic to human well-being and
pleasure, and of huge significance for the
multi-trillion dollar global food business.
Phycotoxins are a diverse group of
poisonous substances produced by
certain seaweed and algae in marine and
fresh waters. Marine toxins are important
to the scientific community for many
reasons, the most obvious being that they
pose food safety issues which requires a
large investment from producing
countries to regularly monitor the
presence of these compounds in foods.
For centuries we have been aware that
some edible marine products contain toxins or poisons, and
therefore we only eat those that are safe. However, phycotoxins
accumulate in fish and shellfish from their diet and these toxins
are carried up the food chain in edible aquatic products, which
can pose harm to people when they reach a certain level.
How Flavor Works: the Science of Taste
and Aroma offers a fascinating and accessible primer on the
concepts of flavor science for all who have an interest in food
and related topics. Professionals and students of food science
and technology who do not already specialize in flavor science
will find it a valuable reference on a topic crucial to how
consumers perceive and enjoy food products. In this regard, it
will also be of interest to product developers, marketers and
food processors. Other readers with a professional (eg culinary
and food service) or personal interest in food will also find the
book interesting as it provides a user-friendly account of the
mechanisms of flavor and aroma which will provide new
insights into their craft.
The presence of marine and aquatic toxins is now identified in
geographical areas where they were never detected before,
which is becoming a concern for food safety authorities as the
expansion of water toxins worldwide is a serious threat. The
legal change on the standards to control marine toxins has
brought about concerns with regard to what toxins are leaking to
food and not being identified by food regulators.

Sensory Science
Since the publication of the first edition, there have been major
advances in the science of marine and aquatic toxins, and
advances in toxicology, analytical chemistry and pharmacology
suggest an update is much needed. This fully revised and
updated edition includes several new chapters, including those
on Ciguatoxins, Pinnatoxin, Tetrodotoxin, as well as new
chapters on food safety control of marine toxins, climate change
and water toxins, and microalgae as a source of nutraceuticals.
The book presents the most up to date information available on
phycotoxins, giving major emphasis to chemistry and
biochemistry but also covering aspects of origin, mechanism of
action, toxicology and analytical methodology.

The Neuroscience of Visual
Hallucinations
The Global Practice of Forensic
Science
Editor DANIEL COLLERTON
Editor DOUGLAS H. UBELAKER
Each year, some two million people in
the United Kingdom experience visual
hallucinations. Infrequent, fleeting visual
hallucinations, often around sleep, are a
usual feature of life. In contrast,
consistent,
frequent,
persistent
hallucinations during waking are
strongly
associated with
clinical
disorders; in particular delirium, eye
disease, psychosis, and dementia.
Research interest in these disorders has
driven a rapid expansion in investigatory techniques, new
evidence, and explanatory models. In parallel, a move to
generative models of normal visual function has resolved the
theoretical tension between veridical and hallucinatory
perceptions. From initial fragmented areas of investigation, the
field has become increasingly coherent over the last decade.
Controversies and gaps remain, but for the first time the shapes
of possible unifying models are becoming clear, along with the
techniques for testing these.
The Global Practice of Forensic Science presents histories,
issues, patterns, and diversity in the applications of international
forensic science.
Written by 64 experienced and
internationally recognized forensic scientists, the volume
documents the practice of forensic science in 28 countries from
Africa, the Americas, Asia, Australia and Europe. Each
country’s chapter explores factors of political history, academic
linkages, the influence of individual cases, facility development,
types of cases examined, integration within forensic science,
recruitment, training, funding, certification, accreditation,
quality control, technology, disaster preparedness, legal issues,
research and future directions. Aimed at all scholars interested
in international forensic science, the volume provides detail on
the diverse fields within forensic science and their applications
around the world.

Leading researchers from a range of clinical and basic science
areas describe visual hallucinations in their historical and
scientific context, combining introductory information with
up-to-date discoveries. They discuss results from the main
investigatory techniques applied in a range of clinical disorders.
The final section outlines future research directions investigating
the potential for new understandings of veridical and
hallucinatory perceptions, and for treatments of problematic
hallucinations.
Networking for Nerds provides a
step-by-step guide to understanding how
to
access
hidden
professional
opportunities through networking. With
an emphasis on practical advice on how
and why to network, you will learn how
to formulate and execute a strategic
networking plan that is dynamic,
multi-dimensional, and leverages social
media platforms and other networking
channels.
An invaluable resource for both established and early-career
scientists and engineers (as well as networking neophytes!),
Networking for Nerds offers concrete insight on crafting
professional networks that are mutually- beneficial and support
the advancement of both your career goals and your scholarly
ambitions. "Networking" does not mean going to one reception
or speaking with a few people at one conference, and never
contacting them again. Rather, "networking" involves a
spectrum of activities that engages both parties, ensures
everyone's value is appropriately communicated, and allows for
the exploration of a win-win collaboration of some kind.
Written by award-winning entrepreneur and strategic career
planning expert Alaina G. Levine, Networking for Nerds is an
essential resource for anyone working in scientific and
engineering fields looking to enhance their professional
planning for a truly fulfilling, exciting, and stimulating career.
Fully comprehensive, this is an essential reference for clinicians
in the fields of the psychology and psychiatry of hallucinations,
as well as for researchers in departments, research institutes and
libraries. It has strong foundations in neuroscience, cognitive
science, optometry, psychiatry, psychology, clinical medicine,
and philosophy. With its lucid explanation and many
illustrations, it is a clear resource for educators and advanced
undergraduate and graduate students.

i-Smooth Analysis
Theory and Applications
ARKADII V. KIM
The edition introduces a new class of invariant derivatives and
shows their relationships with other derivatives, such as the
Sobolev generalized derivative and the generalized derivative of
the distribution theory. This is a new direction in mathematics.
i-Smooth analysis is the branch of functional analysis that
considers the theory and applications of the invariant derivatives
of functions and functionals. The important direction of
i-smooth analysis is the investigation of the relation of invariant
derivatives with the Sobolev generalized derivative and the
generalized derivative of distribution theory.
Until now, i-smooth analysis has been developed mainly to
apply to the theory of functional differential equations, and the
goal of this book is to present i-smooth analysis as a branch of
functional analysis. The notion of the invariant derivative
(i-derivative) of nonlinear functionals has been introduced in
mathematics, and this in turn developed the corresponding
i-smooth calculus of functionals and showed that for linear
continuous functionals the invariant derivative coincides with
the generalized derivative of the distribution theory. This book
intends to introduce this theory to the general mathematics,
engineering, and physicist communities.

Healthcare professionals, including doctors, pharmacists and
nurses, are often confronted with patients who use
over-the-counter (OTC) herbal medicinal products and food
supplements. While taking responsibility for one’s own health
and treatment options is encouraged, many patients use these
products based on limited (and sometimes inaccurate)
information from non-scientific sources, such as the popular
press and internet. There is a clear need to offer balanced,
well-informed advice to patients, yet a number of studies have
shown
that,
generally,
conventionally-trained
health
practitioners consider their knowledge about herbal medicinal
products and supplements to be weak.
• An account of some challenging
disorders in neuropsychiatry
• Raises awareness of uncommon
neuropsychiatric
disorders,
then
discusses what to do once such a
diagnosis has been made
• Focuses on management issues,
providing practical advice for dealing
with complex cases
• This edition includes advice on the
treatment of more common but still
challenging disorders
This book is an attempt to fill this knowledge gap, and is
intended for use by the busy pharmacist, nurse, or doctor, as
well as the ‘expert patient’ and students of pharmacy and herbal
medicine. It presents clear, practical and concise monographs on
over a hundred popular herbal medicines and plant-based food
supplements. Information provided in each monograph includes:
• Indications
• Summary and appraisal of clinical and pre-clinical evidence
• Potential interactions
• Contraindications
• Possible adverse effects

Directive. This stipulates that only registered traditional herbal
medicinal products (THRs), which have assured quality and
safety, can now legally be sold OTC. Monographs are included
of most of the major herbal ingredients found in THRs, and also
some plant-based food supplements, which while not strictly
medicines, may also have the potential to exert a physiological
effect.

Theory and Design for Mechanical
Measurements
Extended Finite Element Method
Theory and Applications
6th Edition
AMIR KHOEI
RICHARD S. FIGLIOLA & DONALD BEASLEY
Clemson University
Extended Finite Element Method:
Theory and Applications introduces the
theory and applications of the extended
finite element method (XFEM) in the
linear and nonlinear problems of
continua, structures and geomechanics.
The XFEM approach is based on an
extension of standard finite element
method based on the partition of unity
method.
Extended Finite Element Method:
Theory and Applications begins by introducing the concept of
partition of unity, various enrichment functions, and
fundamentals of XFEM formulation. It then covers the theory
and application of XFEM in large deformations, plasticity and
contact problems. The implementation of XFEM in fracture
mechanics, including the linear, cohesive, and ductile crack
propagation is also covered. The theory and applications of the
XFEM in multiphase fluid flow, including the hydraulic
fracturing in soil saturated media and crack propagation in
thermo-hydro-mechanical porous media, is also discussed in
detail.
Figliola and Beasley’s 6th edition of
Theory and Design for Mechanical
Measurements provides a time-tested and
respected approach to the theory of
engineering
measurements.
An
emphasis on the role of statistics and
uncertainty analysis in the measuring
process makes this text unique. While
the measurements discipline is very
broad, careful selection of topical
coverage, establishes the physical principles and practical
techniques for quantifying many engineering variables that have
multiple engineering applications.
In the sixth edition, Theory and Design for Mechanical
Measurements continues to emphasize the conceptual design
framework for selecting and specifying equipment, test
procedures and interpreting test results. Coverage of topics,
applications and devices has been updated—including
information on data acquisition hardware and communication
protocols, infrared imaging, and microphones. New examples
that illustrate either case studies or interesting vignettes related
to the application of measurements in current practice are
introduced.

Multi-Scale Damage Modeling for

BAZLE Z. HAQUE & RYAN L. KARKKAINEN
This book covers multi-scale damage modeling of composite
materials while expanding classical techniques to consider
advanced fiber architectures such as woven textile composites.
Classical methods are expanded to the analysis of thick-section
composites which opens the regime to ballistic and low velocity
impact applications. These analyses are inherently multi-scale in
nature, as deformation and failure mechanisms involve multiple
phenomena on several length scales. Nano and micro scale
modeling utilizing molecular and dynamic (MD) and advanced
fracture computational techniques (XFEM and cohesive element
approaches) can be employed to determine the property
enhancements and toughening effects of nanoparticulate and
carbon nanotube reinforcements. Material-by-design approaches
to composite material development will be achieved through
modeling of representative microstructures at multiple length
scales.

2nd Edition
The book deals with the famous query by
Richard Feynman, "What would the
properties of materials be if we could
really arrange the atoms (molecules) the
way we want them?" Feynman also
wondered: "What could we do with
layered structures with just the right
layers?" The state of the art in building
laminar materials of different kinds for
diverse applications is thoroughly
covered in this book. After discussing the
basic chemistry involved, the basic chemistry involved in the
field and the techniques used for techniques are discussed,
including: variable porosity; molecular and shape recognition;
detection, separation and storage of small molecules;
supramolecular chirality; chiral memory and recognition; simple
and circularly polarized luminescence; photoactive materials;
viii) drug and dye confinement. Applications in biocatalysis,
drug delivery, and energy storage and recovery are discussed.

University, Clemson, SC
Great Myths of Child Development
reveals the latest evidence-based science
behind the myths and misconceptions
around the developing child. Topics
covered include preconceived notions
about twin-telepathy, sex-prediction,
baby talk, vaccines, spankings, child care,
imaginary friends, and many more. To
illustrate the mixed messages about
healthy child development presented in
the media, the authors also draw on
examples from a variety of contemporary
TV shows and feature films—everything from Modern Family
and Mad Men to Moonshiners and Meet the Fockers. The
authors contrast this stereotypical behaviour with their top ten
list of the most surprising—but true—findings in the field of
child development. Readers wishing to take ‘the next step’ are
also pointed in an evidence-based direction to topics relating to
fertility, sleep problems, ADHD, education, autism, bedwetting,
depression, anxiety, behavior problems, divorce, and parenting.
From the moment of conception through the years of childhood,
Great Myths of Child Development separates the pseudo from
the science to take out some of the confusion and concern over
the development skills and growth of your child.

RiskMaths
This book presents an overview of the
foundations and the key ideas and results
of linear and generalized linear models
under one cover. Written by a prolific
academic, researcher, and textbook
writer, Foundations of Linear and
Generalized Linear Models is soon to
become the gold standard by which all
existing textbooks on the topic will be
compared. While the emphasis is clearly
and
succinctly
on
theoretical
underpinnings, applications in "R" are
presented when they help to elucidate the content or promote
practical model building. Each chapter contains approximately
15-20 exercises, primarily for readers to practice and extend the
theory, but, also to assimilate the ideas by doing some data
analysis. The carefully crafted models and examples convey
basic concepts and do not get mired down in non-trivial
considerations. An author-maintained web site includes, among
other numerous pedagogical supplements, analyses that parallel
the "R" routines from the book in SAS, SPSS and Stata.
