ISBN: 9780865427327 / Angielski / Twarda / 1998 / 600 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. At the heart of environmental protection is risk assessment: the likelihood of pollution from accidents; the likelihood of problems from normal and abnormal operation of industrial processes; the likely impacts associated with new synthetic chemicals; and so on. Currently, risk assessment has been very much in the news--the risks from BSE and E. coli, and the public perception of risks from nuclear waste, etc. This new publication explains how scientific methodologies are used to assess risk from human activities and the resultant objects and wastes, on people and the environment....

Evolutionary Principles
ISBN: 9781468415209 / Angielski / Miękka / 2012 / 108 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 20 dni roboczych. The last few years have seen a number of new books on evolutionary biology. However most of these are either large or specialized. This is an attempt to produce a thin, general version for undergraduate use. Thinness, of course, demands selectivity, and the aim has been to concentrate on the principles of the subject rather than on the details-principles, that is, of both theory and practice. Thinness also sometimes means that a certain level of knowledge is assumed in the readership, but I hope that this is not the case here, and my intention has certainly been to produce something that is...

Evaluating and Monitoring the Health of Large-Scale Ecosystems
ISBN: 9783642794667 / Angielski / Miękka / 2011 / 454 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 20 dni roboczych. Ecosystem health offers a fresh perspective on the management of natural resources and the environment. While some of the root concepts can surely be traced back to Aldo Leopold and even earlier, it is only in the recent decade that a substantial body of work has emerged on this topic. There is no question that a novel approach which is by its nature cross disciplinary, bridging the health and biological sciences, will initially raise a number of questions particularly pertaining to the use of metaphors and the validity of the analogy. This volume however goes beyond merely the philosophical...
