Book Description
Carol Gould addresses the fundamental issue of democratizing globalization, or finding ways to open transnational institutions and communities to democratic participation by those widely affected by their decisions. Gould develops a framework for expanding participation in cross-border decisions, arguing for a broader understanding of human rights. In addition, she introduces a new role for the ideas of care and solidarity at a distance. Her accessible text will be a major new contribution to political philosophy.

Book Description
This series of complete and compact laboratory manuals leads students through every stage of the dissection process for rats, rabbits, frogs, and dogfish. Each of the manuals, corresponding to specimens most often used in high-school and undergraduate courses in general biology, zoology, physiology, and comparitive anatomy, guides the student through a complete dissection with easy-to-follow directions and accurate, clearly labeled illustrations. Anatomical structures appear in the sequence encountered during an actual dissection: First the external anatomy, then the skeletal, muscular, digestive, respiratory, circulatory, urogenital, and nervous systems.

Book Description
The first edition of
Flavor of Meat and Meat Products was described as 'the best compilation of data on meat flavor yet published.' This edition has now been updated and extended to include the latest developments concerning both meat and fish flavor. It presents the latest research on species flavors, cured meat flavor, methods of assessment of flavor quality and consequences of meat deterioration. The coverage is divided into three parts which deal with species flavors, the effects of constituents and processing on flavor, and the analytical methods, chemical and sensory, of assessing meat flavor. The book is highly recommended for scientists and technologists in the meat and seafood industries. It is also of value to sensory scientists, quality managers and marketing personnel.
Book Description
Through the French Canals has probably tempted more people to explore the beautiful waterways of France than any other book. A bestseller for many years and now in its 11th edition, it is the essential planning guide for anyone wanting to cruise through the stunning scenery of the French waterways, or who is simply on passage from the English Channel to the Mediterranean.
Packed with photographs and updated practical information on local facilities, distance, heights and depths, tunnel lengths, cost of living, shopping and also mentions the local wines of the regions.
Customer Reviews:
A thoroughly "user friendly" guide for vacationers.......2003-07-25
Now in its tenth edition which is revised by David Jefferson, Through The French Canals by Philip Bristow deftly describes and accessibly illustrates 39 scenic routes through waterways ranging from the English Channel to the Mediterranean. Weather information, Hatles and ports de plaisance, waterway signals, recommend-ations for suitable boats, information on locks, the cost of living, cruiser hire, even French vocabularies and conversion tables, fill the pages of this informative and thoroughly "user friendly" guide for vacationers and boaters looking to enjoy a grand ride along the inland waterways of France.
Through the French Canals.......2002-03-22
Although very detailed, this book is geared more toward those taking frequent or extended trips on the canals of France. It's also aimed at boat owners (primarily those coming from Great Britain)as opposed to vacation boat renters. The detail is more on the navigation end of things. I guess I was looking for something geared more for the casual tourist who rents a boat for a week or so and needs details on towns, shops and services along the canals.
Customer Reviews:
Very helpful.......2006-04-09
My wife has been using this book and been very satisfied. I thought the topics for the chapter were very useful, as were the associated grammar patterns and vocab. We're living in Korea and mingle with a lot of Koreans so we're experiencing how Koreans really talk. There's a very helpful link through the University of Indiana Korean language department that correlates with these textbooks. I don't have time to write an extensive review, but this book has been helpful for us as we strive to learn "real Korean" in Korea.
Commercial Endeavor - don't waste your money.......2004-01-23
This book is not very well organized and it comes WITHOUT any audio whatsoever. You can download the audio from the Hawaii website BUT - it's only in real audio format which you can only play on your computer with the real audio program. You can't burn the audio to a cd and then listen to it in your car, for example. Or...you can buy the cd for $195!!
No integrated audio is the first deadly sin for a language book. Worse, the audio situation with this book is an UNETHICAL attempt to rip you off. The University of Hawaii should be ashamed.
Great book for intermediate Korean.......2002-12-21
If you are reading this you are probably aware that good Korean texts are hard to find. Of the Korean learning materials out there I have sampled including the Korean Through English series, College Korean, FSI Tape set & book, and books published by Korean unversities not available in the US, the Integrated Korean series is by far the best. The Integrated Korean series stays away from using the arcane linguistic terminology of College Korean, avoids the oversimplification of KTE, and presents much more natural Korean usage than the textbooks published by Korean universities(including SNU, Yonsei, and Korea U). The grammatical explanations are great, the vocabulary is useful, and the cultural notes are also interesting and pertinent. Audio files for the dialogues are also available online for free on the U of Hawaii publishing webpage.
