Handbook of Psychology, Assessment Psychology (Volume 10)
Psychology at the beginning of the twenty-first century has become a highly diverse field of scientific study and applied technology. Psychologists commonly regard their discipline as the science of behavior, and the American Psychological Association has formally designated 2000 to 2010 as the “Decade of...
Root Genomics and Soil Interactions
Root Genomics and Soil Interactions

Fully integrated and comprehensive in its coverage, Root Genomics and Soil Interactions examines the use of genome-based technologies to understand root development and adaptability to biotic and abiotic stresses and changes in the soil environment. Written by an international team of experts in the field, this timely review highlights...

Ethnobiology
Ethnobiology

The single comprehensive treatment of the field, from the leading members of the Society of Ethnobiology

The field of ethnobiology—the study of relationships between particular ethnic groups and their native plants and animals—has grown very rapidly in recent years, spawning numerous subfields. Ethnobiological research...

Ecological Genomics: Ecology and the Evolution of Genes and Genomes
Ecological Genomics: Ecology and the Evolution of Genes and Genomes

Researchers in the field of ecological genomics aim to determine how a genome or a population of genomes interacts with its environment across ecological and evolutionary timescales. Ecological genomics is trans-disciplinary by nature. Ecologists have turned to genomics to be able to elucidate the mechanistic bases of the biodiversity their...

Tree Climbing Robot: Design, Kinematics and Motion Planning (Springer Tracts in Advanced Robotics)
Tree Climbing Robot: Design, Kinematics and Motion Planning (Springer Tracts in Advanced Robotics)

Climbing robot is a challenging research topic that has gained much attention from researchers. Most of the robots reported in the literature are designed to climb on manmade structures, but seldom robots are designed for climbing natural environment such as trees. Trees and manmade structures are very different in nature. It brings different...

The Human Impact on the Natural Environment: Past, Present, and Future
The Human Impact on the Natural Environment: Past, Present, and Future

The seventh edition of this classic student text explores the multitude of impacts that humans have had over time upon vegetation, animals, soils, water, landforms and the atmosphere. It also looks into the future and considers the ways in which climate changes and modifications in land cover may change the environment in coming decades....

Tracking the Neolithic House in Europe: Sedentism, Architecture and Practice (One World Archaeology)
Tracking the Neolithic House in Europe: Sedentism, Architecture and Practice (One World Archaeology)

The Neolithic period is noted primarily for the change from hunter-gatherer societies to agriculture, domestication and sedentism. This change has been studied in the past by archaeologists observing the movements of plants, animals and people. But has not been examined by looking at the domestic architecture of the time. Along with tracking...

The Machine Question: Critical Perspectives on AI, Robots, and Ethics
The Machine Question: Critical Perspectives on AI, Robots, and Ethics

One of the enduring concerns of moral philosophy is deciding who or what is deserving of ethical consideration. Much recent attention has been devoted to the "animal question" -- consideration of the moral status of nonhuman animals. In this book, David Gunkel takes up the "machine question": whether and to what extent...

Leptin (Endocrine Updates)
Leptin (Endocrine Updates)
The discovery of leptin by Friedman and his colleagues in 1994 was a seminal discovery in the study of metabolism, providing a new tool to study energy expenditure and appetite regulation. Early studies actively investigated many aspects of metabolism, obesity, and diabetes but it was soon evident that leptin was much more than...
Dipeptidyl Aminopeptidases: Basic Science and Clinical Applications (Advances in Experimental Medicine and Biology)
Dipeptidyl Aminopeptidases: Basic Science and Clinical Applications (Advances in Experimental Medicine and Biology)
DPP IV has been attributed a large array of functions, some of which are mediated by its exopeptidase activity. Although it only removes two amino acid residues at the N-terminus of the peptide, this cleavage can inactivate or modify the activity of regulatory peptides, peptide hormones, chemokines and neuropeptides. Several...
Estuarine Ecology
Estuarine Ecology

Estuaries are among the most biologically productive ecosystems on the planet--critical to the life cycles of fish, other aquatic animals, and the creatures which feed on them. Estuarine Ecology, Second Edition, covers the physical and chemical aspects of estuaries, the biology and ecology of key organisms, the flow of organic matter...

Mites: Ecology, Evolution & Behaviour: Life at a Microscale
Mites: Ecology, Evolution & Behaviour: Life at a Microscale

More than 40,000 species of mites have been described, and up to 1 million may exist on earth. These tiny arachnids play many ecological roles including acting as vectors of disease, vital players in soil formation, and important agents of biological control. But despite the grand diversity of mites, even trained biologists are often unaware...
