The question that faces governments and militaries the world over is how best to allocate resources for management of defence in the new age. This book, by Shri A.K. Ghosh who has an economics background, explores the framework for change in resource allocation and capability building. It emphasises the importance of introducing programming in Indian defence to serve as a link between defence planning and budgeting. The mismatch between defence planning and budgeting needs to be connected by the introduction of resource constrained budgeting, having a multi-year perspective. The RMA, force modernisation, cost-benefit analysis, management of risks, and internal and external audits are among the many issues the author has provided a perspective on. It is argued by the author that defence needs to be viewed as a giant business and, where possible, business practices should be introduced. The book is recommended reading for the planners and decision-makers of defence management and will benefit readers from the armed forces as well. The lay readers interested in the subject of national defence and security will also find it useful and interesting.
In contrast to previous texts focusing on either computational,
structural or synthetic methods, this one-of-a-kind guide
integrates all three skill sets for a complete picture of
contemporary structure-based design.
In this ground-breaking practical reference, the family of aspartic
acid proteases is described from a drug developer's perspective.
The first part provides a general introduction to the family of
aspartic acid proteases, their physiological functions, molecular
structure and inhibition. Parts two to five present various case
studies of successful protease inhibitor drug design and
development, as well as current and potential uses of such
inhibitors in pharmaceutical medicine, covering the major
therapeutic targets HIV-1 protease, renin, beta-secretase,
gamma-secretase, plasmepsins and fungal proteases.
The book includes a synthesis of research findings on the structure
and evolution of the Central Indian Ocean Basin and its
ferromanganese deposits, in particular, on the exploration campaign
since 1980s. A comprehensive mixture of recent studies along with
classical theories starting from the 1960s is the hallmark of the
book. Recent concepts and hypotheses, and also critical
appreciation of the state-of-the-art knowledge on nodule formation
and resource management are incorporated.
