Promoting sustainable living across seventeen essential areas throughout the planet has been the agenda that was adopted in 2015 by the United Nations with a deadline of 2030. After nine years into the future since 2015, most nations still need to gear up to their full potential to fulfill the targeted development. Although the United Nations has been publishing its annual SGD progress reports since 2016, along with a list of portals where the parameters can be measured for individual nations for each one of the seventeen goals, the perspective of researchers, and practitioners provides a unique perspective on the progression. Despite the rigorous attempts from the United Nations, regulatory...
This Atlas of Dermatology has a unique clinical orientation with an emphasis on morphology. The disease entities are arranged according to the morphology of lesions to aid diagnosis. This pattern of placement is more useful for both teaching and learning and serves as an important aid in making a diagnosis being based on the way patients present themselves in out-patient departments. With key diagnostic clinical pointers generously illustrated to help the reader in diagnosing and excluding clinical differentials, this Atlas will serve as a helpful source for medical residents and practitioners specialising in Clinical Dermatology. Key Features An atlas and text covering skin, mucosa, hair and nail diseases in skin of color Emphasis on key diagnostic clinical pointers 3000+ clinical images--multiple images of a disease to cover the clinical spectrum Dedicated section on Regional Dermatology and Skin changes in systemic diseases Clinician’s desk reference for OPD practice
Functional Glasses and Glass-Ceramics: Processing, Properties and Applications provides comprehensive coverage of the current state-of-the-art on a range of material synthesis. This work discusses the functional properties and applications of both oxide and non-oxide glasses and glass-ceramics. Part One provides an introduction to the basic concept of functional glasses and glass-ceramics, while Part Two describes the functional glasses and glass-ceramics of oxide systems, covering functionalization of glasses by 3d transition metal ion doping, 4f rare earth metal ion doping, crystallization, laser irradiation micro fabrication, incorporation of nanometals, the incorporation of semiconductor...
Even after 25 years of its birth, Java is still on the top of all programming languages. The reason is its platform independence and architectural neutrality. This is the reason why every curriculum of computer science and engineering have a subject of Java Programming. The authors of this book have vast experience in teaching Java at undergraduate and post graduate level. This book is the nectar of their experience and it has been written looking at the all perspective of education and understanding the concepts and applications. The focus is moreover on the fundamental aspects of the Java Programming. The authors have tried to cover all the latest developments in the language which is happening from time to time.
This book focuses on the conventional breeding approach, and on the latest high-throughput genomics tools and genetic engineering / biotechnological interventions used to improve rice quality. It is the first book to exclusively focus on rice as a major food crop and the application of genomics and genetic engineering approaches to achieve enhanced rice quality in terms of tolerance to various abiotic stresses, resistance to biotic stresses, herbicide resistance, nutritional value, photosynthetic performance, nitrogen use efficiency, and grain yield. The range of topics is quite broad and exhaustive, making the book an essential reference guide for researchers and scientists around the globe who are working in the field of rice genomics and biotechnology. In addition, it provides a road map for rice quality improvement that plant breeders and agriculturists can actively consult to achieve better crop production.
