This volume forms part of a prestigious series and covers the
latest advances in our understanding of the pathophysiology and
treatment of asthma. Our understanding of asthma has changed
dramatically in recent years, and much of this new information is
brought together in this volume written by inter nationally
recognised authorities. The aim of the book is to review in depth
the changing concepts of inflammatory processes in asthma and to
discuss the implications for research of this common chronic
disease. Many of the advances in and future therapy our
understanding of asthma have originated from a pharmacological
approach, and this volume highlights the promising new options for
pharma cological intervention. It is hoped this book will be
invaluable for research scientists and clinic ians involved in
asthma research and will be a major reference resource for chest
physicians and those involved in the development of novel pharmaceu
tical entities. Each chapter is extensively referenced, generously
illustrated with clear diagrams and photographs, and represents a
state-of-the-art review of this growing area. c.P. PAGE P.l. BARNES

Presented here is a comprehensive account of both theoretical and
practical aspects of sugarcane production. The first of two parts
of the book deals with origin, distribution, soil and climatic
requirements, seed bed preparation, cultural and nutrient
requirements, fertilization, irrigation, ratooning, weeds, pests,
diseases, ripening, and harvest. In thesecond part, energy and
fibre cane, cane development, and manufacturing techniques of sugar
and by-products are treated in detail. This book will serve as a
vademecum for cane growers, sugar and sugarcane technologists,
students and teachers.
