Riparian Areas of the Southwestern United States: Hydrology, Ecology, and Management
Malchus B. Baker Manufacturer: CRC ProductGroup: Book Binding: Hardcover ASIN: 1566706262 |
Book Description
The demand for water resulting from massive population and economic growth in the southwestern U.S. overwhelmed traditional uses of riparian areas. As a consequence, many of these uniquely-structured ecosystems have been altered or destroyed. Within recent years people have become increasingly aware of the many uses and benefits of riparian zones and have emphasized ecosystem restoration and the resolution of multiple-use conflicts. Riparian Areas of the Southwestern United States: Hydrology, Ecology, and Management offers a holistic overview of the effects of human activity on these fragile but critical ecosystems. Topics range from an overview of the organisms that inhabit these corridors to the research, planning, and management issues that will determine the preservation and/or future use of these areas. This comprehensive analysis will aid engineers, hydrologists, ecologists, land-use planners, non-governmental organizations, and policymakers in the ongoing attempt to find a balance among the demands of agriculture, recreation, conservation, and development.

The Primate Fossil Record (Cambridge Studies in Biological and Evolutionary Anthropology)
Manufacturer: Cambridge University Press ProductGroup: Book Binding: Hardcover Similar Items: ASIN: 0521663156 |
Book Description
The Primate Fossil Record is a profusely illustrated, up-to-date, and comprehensive treatment of primate paleontology that captures the complete history of the discovery and interpretation of primate fossils. Each chapter emphasizes three key components of the record of primate evolution: history of discovery, taxonomy of the fossils, and evolution of the adaptive radiations they represent. The volume objectively summarizes the many intellectual debates surrounding the fossil record and provides a foundation of reference information on the last two decades of astounding discoveries and worldwide field research for physical anthropologists, paleontologists, and evolutionary biologists.

Evolution For Dummies (For Dummies (Math & Science))
Greg Krukonis Manufacturer: For Dummies ProductGroup: Book Binding: Paperback ASIN: 0470117737 |
Book Description
Today, most colleges and universities offer evolutionary study as part of their biology curriculums. Evolution For Dummies will track a class in which evolution is taught and give an objective scientific view of the subject. This balanced guide explores the history and future of evolution, explaining the concepts and science behind it, offering case studies that support it, and comparing evolution with rival theories of creation, such as intelligent design. It also will identify the signs of evolution in the world around us and explain how this theory affects our everyday lives and the future to come.

Reconstructing Behavior in the Primate Fossil Record (Advances in Primatology)
Manufacturer: Springer ProductGroup: Book Binding: Hardcover ASIN: 030646604X |
Book Description
This volume brings together a series of papers that address the topic of reconstructing behavior in the primate fossil record. Here is offered a review of broad issues related to reconstructing various aspects of behavior - such as diet and social systems - from very different types of evidence. For example: comparative analysis and adaptation, ontogenetic evidence, paleoenvironmental and paleo-community analysis, experimental functional analysis, and comparative socioecology. Hopefully, the reader will gain a perspective on the various types of evidence that can be brought to bear on reconstructing behavior, the strengths and weaknesses of different approaches, and, perhaps, new approaches to the topic. Authors review not only the types of evidence that can be used to reconstruct behavior, but also the limitations of the evidence, only emphasizing the weakness of behavioral reconstruction as a basis and inspiration for further research.

Carleman's Formulas in Complex Analysis: Theory and Applications (Mathematics and Its Applications)
L.A. Aizenberg Manufacturer: Springer ProductGroup: Book Binding: Hardcover ASIN: 0792321219 |
Book Description
This monograph is the first to give a systematic presentation of the Carleman formulas. These enable values of functions holomorphic to a domain to be recovered from their values over a part of the boundary of the domain. Various generalizations of these formulas are considered. Applications are considered to problems of analytic continuation in the theory of functions, and, in a broader context, to problems arising in theoretical and mathematical physics, and to the extrapolation and interpolation of signals having a finite Fourier spectrum. The volume also contains a review of the latest results, including those obtained by computer simulation on the elimination of noise in a given frequency band. For mathematicians and theoretical physicists whose work involves complex analysis, and those interested in signal processing.

Misrepresentations: Shakespeare and the Materialists
Graham Bradshaw Manufacturer: Cornell University Press ProductGroup: Book Binding: Paperback Similar Items: ASIN: 0801481295 |
Book Description
Just at the moment when conflicts between critical "isms" are threatening to turn the study of English literature into a game park for endangered texts, Bradshaw arrives with a work of liberating wit and insight. His subject is double: the Shakespeare he reads and the Shakespeare whom critics in the ranks of the new historicists and cultural materialists are representing (or misrepresenting).Customer Reviews:
