Using the latest available data, Dr. Stewart provides a critical,
historical study of the exploitation of a major agricultural
resource by a developing country. It traces the political economy
of Papua New Guinea's coffee industry from its pre-independence
origins.

Cognitive Behavior Therapy for Depressed Adolescents provides
clinicians, clinical supervisors, and researchers with a
comprehensive understanding of etiological pathways as well as
current CBT approaches for treating affected adolescents. Chapters
guide readers from preparations for the first session and clinical
assessment to termination and relapse prevention, and each chapter
includes session transcripts to provide a more concrete sense of
what it looks like to implement particular CBT techniques with
depressed teens. In-depth discussions of unique challenges posed by
working with depressed teens, as well as ways to address these
issues, also are provided.
Peasant festival imagery began in sixteenth-century Nuremberg, when
the city played host to a series of religious and secular
festivals. The peasant festival images were first produced as
woodcut prints in the decade between 1524 and 1535 by Sebald Beham.
These peasant festival prints show celebrating in a variety of ways
including dancing, eating and drinking, and playing games. In
Before Bruegel, Alison Stewart takes a fresh look at these images
and explores them within their historical and cultural contexts,
including the introduction of the Lutheran Reformation into the
town's institutions and the accompanying re-evaluation of the
town's popular festivals. Stewart goes beyond the black-and-white
approaches of previous interpretations, to examine the festival
prints in a more complex manner. In the first publication of its
kind, Stewart makes the case for a range of meanings these works
held for a sixteenth-century audience and for Beham's pictorial
inventiveness and his business savvy. Beham is credited with
inventing the subject of peasant festivals in Northern Renaissance
art and for creating a market for the subject by the middle of the
sixteenth century, with his large-scale woodcuts at Nuremberg and
with tiny engravings at Frankfurt. Stewart shows that the market
Beham created for prints with the theme of peasant festivals paved
the way for Pieter Bruegel's Netherlandish paintings of the same
theme, dating but a few years later.
With a foreword written by Professor Ludwig Narziss-one of the
world's most notable brewing scientists-the Handbook of Brewing,
Third Edition, as it has for two previous editions, provides the
essential information for those who are involved or interested in
the brewing industry. The book simultaneously introduces the
basics-such as the biochemistry and microbiology of brewing
processes-and also deals with the necessities associated with a
brewery, which are steadily increasing due to legislation, energy
priorities, environmental issues, and the pressures to reduce
costs. Written by an international team of experts recognized for
their contributions to brewing science and technology, it also
explains how massive improvements in computer power and automation
have modernized the brewhouse, while developments in biotechnology
have steadily improved brewing efficiency, beer quality, and shelf
life.

Climate Adaptation Engineering defines the measures taken to reduce
vulnerability and increase the resiliency of built infrastructure.
This includes enhancement of design standards, structural
strengthening, utilisation of new materials, and changes to
inspection and maintenance regimes, etc. The book examines the
known effects and relationships of climate change variables on
infrastructure and risk-management policies. Rich with case
studies, this resource will enable engineers to develop a
long-term, self-sustained assessment capacity and more effective
risk-management strategies. The book's authors also take a
long-term view, dealing with several aspects of climate change. The
text has been written in a style accessible to technical and
non-technical readers with a focus on practical decision outcomes.
This is part one of a comprehensive two-volume reference that shows
all the camouflage uniforms of the Waffen-SS. Using predominately
modern color photographs, Volume 1 covers SS camouflage helmet
covers and smocks. Each example is displayed on a full mannequin
with numerous photos showing how the clothing appeared from various
angles. In addition, detail images are used to clearly expose key
features of the uniforms and equipment. The text explains the
important details about the creation, manufacturing, and wear of
each item. Period photos establish the wear of each item presented
in the book.
This book is an overview considering yeast and fermentation. The
similarities and differences between yeasts employed in brewing and
distilling are reviewed. The implications of the differences during
the production of beer and distilled products (potable and
industrial) are discussed. This Handbook includes a review of
relevant historical developments and achievements in this field,
the basic yeast taxonomy and biology, as well as fundamental and
practical aspects of yeast cropping (flocculation), handling,
storage and propagation. Yeast stress, vitality and viability are
also addressed together with flavor production, genetic
manipulation, bioethanol formation and ethanol production by
non-Saccharomyces yeasts and a Gram-negative bacterium. This
information, and a detailed account of yeast research and its
implications to both the brewing and distilling processes, is a
useful resource to those engaged in fermentation, yeast and their
many products and processes.
