Smart Polymeric Nano-Constructs in Drug Delivery: Concept, Design and Therapeutic Applications provides a thorough discussion of the most state of the art material and polymer exploitations for the delivery of bioactive(s) as well as their current and clinical status. The book enables researchers to prepare a variety of smart drug delivery systems to investigate their properties as well as to discover their uses and applications. The novelty of this approach addresses an existing need of exhaustively understanding the potential of the materials including polymeric drug delivery systems that are smartly designed to deliver bioactive(s) into the body at targeted sites without showing side effects. The book is helpful for those in the health sector, specifically those developing nanomedicine using smart material-based nano-delivery systems. Polymers have unique co-operative properties that are not found with low-molecular-weight compounds along with their appealing physical and chemical properties, constituting the root of their success in drug delivery. Smart Polymeric Nano-Constructs in Drug Delivery: Concept, Design and Therapeutic Applications discusses smart and stimuli responsive polymers applicable in drug delivery, followed detailed information about various concepts and designing of polymeric novel drug delivery systems for treatment of various type of diseases, also discussing patents related to the field. The book helps readers to design and develop novel drug delivery systems based on smart materials for the effective delivery of bioactive that take advantage of recent advances in smart polymer-based strategies. It is useful to those in pharmaceutical sciences and related fields in developing new drug delivery systems.

Nano Drug Delivery Strategies for the Treatment of Cancers discusses several current and promising approaches for the diagnosis and treatment of cancer by using the most recent developments in nanomedical technologies. The book presents introductory information about the biology of different types of cancer in order to provide the reader with knowledge on their specificities. In addition, it discusses various novel drug delivery systems, detailing their functionalities, expected outcomes and future developments in the field, focusing on brain, mouth and throat, breast, lung, liver, pancreas, stomach, colon, bool, skin and prostate cancers. The book is a valuable source for cancer researchers, oncologists, pharmacologists and nanotechnologists who are interested in novel drug delivery systems and devices for treatment of various types of cancer that take advantage of recent advances in this exciting field.

This book covers the fundamentals and basic and advanced topics of Java Programming from core to advanced level of programming in Java. It teaches how to design and develop a real world system using object oriented concepts and later on how to write good programs in Java, you will learn how to properly use its features in computer programs. This book start with a concise introductory text on object oriented features of Java s, free from complex definitions, so that beginners can develop a good understanding of Object oriented concepts and use of Java language to implement it, in a short period of time. The book is primarily designed for use in undergraduate and postgraduate computer science courses having self review questions after each chapter. Without sit on computer and write program one cannot learn Java, so we attached several lab exercises. Book will be equally useful to professional programmers who intend to learn the language on their own.

The agricultural development in the mountainous regions is circumscribed by the mountain specificities that distinguish them from the plains and other eco-systems. As a result,the mountains faces serious problems of dwindling crop yields and resource degradation which may aggravate further if remedial measures are not undertaken immediately. In this regard, Jammu and Kashmir is no exception like other mountaneous regions of the country and abroad. Increase in the agricultural output would, therefore, have to be achieved only through intensification and diversification of agriculture and rational land use. Against this background; study,firstly, tried to look at the trends in the cropping pattern of different crops in the state at district level; secondly, to study the patterns and processes of agricultural development and crop diversification in different districts; and finally, to examine the determinants of agricultural development and crop diversification. The significance of the study lies in drawing important lessons for the welfare of the farmers and for effective policy framework, thereby, improving the economy of the state

The most common problems afflicting people in the modern world are asthma and allergies. Even children are not spared from these. 'How to Control Asthma and Allergy' offers an insight into the basic causes and types of asthma and allergies and how they can be best dealt with. The book provides multiple treatment options to choose from -- allopathy, acupressure, acupuncture, magnetotherapy, ayurveda, homoeopathy and nature cure. Written in a simple and lucid style, the book includes objective questions which can help people ascertain whether they are potentially asthmatic and whether they are allergic to certain conditions of nature, drugs and food. However, the remedies are intended as a home advisor and not as a substitute for qualified medical diagnosis and treatment.

In the race to admit more and more children in privately run, English-medium schools and orient them to a world of cut-throat competition and grades-based performance, the quality of education is suffering. Children, teachers and, of course, educational institutions themselves are constantly struggling to survive in such an atmosphere. However, while most schools play to the gallery, there are some that have attempted to swim against the current. They aim for the overall development of their students and try to establish a healthy learning environment. Not Just Grades is about schools that have proved that it is possible to weave positive personal development together with academic excellence. Innovative and full of creative ideas, these schools have a made in difference in imparting education in the absence of extensive resources or capital.
