Richard Wesley Cole was a seventh-generation American whose family got caught up in America's Civil War. He enlisted as a foot soldier with the 3rd Mississippi State Infantry in October 1863 and, less than a year later, became a horseman with George's Regiment, Mississippi Cavalry, which later became the 5th Mississippi Cavalry in General Nathan Bedford Forrest's Cavalry Department. Richard proudly rode with Forrest until Richard was killed on 12 April 1864, at the Battle of Fort Pillow in Lauderdale County, Tennessee. Richard's story is a history of his family, a partial history of the 5th Mississippi Cavalry, the 22nd Mississippi Infantry, and the 30th Mississippi Infantry, and is a history of the war itself seen through the eyes of Richard and his family. When news reached Black Hawk, Mississippi, that Confederate troops in South Carolina had fired on Fort Sumter, the men and boys of the village were excited about the possibility of war with the North and bragged that if war came, it wouldn't be long before the Yankees were defeated and sent scurrying back home. The men and boys misunderstood what war would be like, but Richard's wife, Eliza, didn't and her worst fears would be realized as the war decimated her family. Eight days after the surrender of Fort Sumter, a volunteer state militia company was formed in Black Hawk. Richard's oldest son, a son-in-law, and two future sons-in-law enlisted with the company. Richard's second son ran away from home in February 1862 and joined the Confederate Army. Eight months later, Richard left home for the war. Richard and his family lived through the most tumultuous period in our Nation's history. They experienced firsthand the hardships and horrors of a nation at war with itself and it affected them for the rest of their lives.

Emphasizes the importance of choosing the correct project and defining This newly revised and expanded reference/text describes the economics and organization of project development, from overall venture managem ent to plant start-up, and considers offshore endeavors, risk analysis, and environmental permits and regulations. Projecting costs using t he chemical engineering plant index, Planning, Estimating, and Control of Chemical Construction Projects, Second Edition supplies a rational method for easy cost projection and is a superb reference for cost, p roject, chemical, civil, plant, mechanical, and industrial engineers; and project, construction, and business managers; and an excellent tex t for upper-level undergraduate and graduate students in these discipl ines.

Building A Modern Financial System provides penetrating insights into the upheavals in Indonesia, and explains the kinds of policies that can lead to the development of a modern financial system in a large, relatively underdeveloped country. The study covers all facets of the financial system, emphasising the role of the monetary authorities, the transition from government-dominated to a predominantly private banking system, and the rapid expansion of the capital market. Indonesia is a particularly interesting case because its economy and financial system was in shambles in the mid-1960s owing to political adventurism and economic mismanagement. Until more recently sensible economic policies and growth-promoting reforms provided a sound financial system and a balanced expansion of agriculture and industry. However since the mid-1990's the stability of the Indonesian system has once again been called into question.

Asian Money Markets traces the evolution of money markets in seven key economies of East and Southeast Asia: Hong Kong, Indonesia, Japan, Korea, Malaysia, the Philippines, and Singapore. It asks how government policy affected the performance of the markets over several decades. Several very different approaches emerge, with important consequences for financial sector development. Countries pursuing market-oriented development strategies, including those in transition from socialist to market economies, need effective financial systems that include efficient money markets. This book should dispel the view that a government can quickly develop money markets; the most complex markets described here started with new government policies more than twenty years ago, and are still evolving to meet new challenges. Asian Money Markets will be of interest to scholars of development finance, financial officials and advisers, and anyone who wants to learn from the experience of some of the most dynamic economies in the world.

"Equine Pharmacology" combines highly practical therapeutic guidance with reliable scientific background information to provide a clinically relevant resource. Taking a body systems approach to the subject, the book offers the equine clinician with fast access to drug options for a given disease, with additional information available for reference as needed. Logically organized to lead the reader through the clinical decision-making process, "Equine Pharmacology" is a user-friendly reference for pharmacological information in the horse. The book begins with a general review section presenting the principles of antimicrobials, anesthesia, analgesics, anti-parasitics, foals, fluid therapy, and drug and medication control programs. The remainder of the book is devoted to a body systems approach to therapeutics, allowing the reader to search by affected system or specific disease to find detailed advice on drug therapy. "Equine Pharmacology" is an invaluable addition to the practice library for any clinician treating equine patients.

Micronucleus is defined as the small nucleus that forms whenever a chromosome or its fragment is not incorporated into one of the daughter nuclei during cell division. It is concluded that micronucleus assay can be used for risk prediction, screening, diagnosis and treatment of various chronic diseases. In this Micronucleus Assay: An Overview, the applications of micronucleus assay will be discussed. Ionisating radiations, ultraviolet rays, geogenic or anthropogenic pollutants can induce mutagenic, teratogenic or carcinogenic effects due to the induction of micro or macrolession over DNA. Several models have been used to measure the mutagenic and clastogenic effect of such agents. As such, the authors focus on one of these models: the micronucleus test. The micronucleus test can assess abnormalities earlier in the drug discovery pipeline, making structure/genotoxicity connection a possible system for drug characterization. Additionally, the authors provide knowledge about micronucleus assay and its usage in occupational toxicology studies. It is now recognized as one of the most successful and reliable assays for genotoxic carcinogens. The authors go on to present an overview of the evaluation of micronucleus assay by flow cytometry, reviewing the studies published in the international literature so far that employ different experimental designs for a variety of purposes. Humans can become exposed to a variety of chemical substances that can have adverse biological effects, and the sub-lethal genotoxicity can have the most far reaching and severe consequences like cancer or abnormal progeny as per the cell type involved. Hence, the penultimate chapter focuses on the significance of identifying and predicting potential genotoxic agents by using laboratory markers, thus regulating and preventing exposure to cancer causing agents In the concluding review, generation of micronucleus assay in the bone marrow cells of mice induced by various clastogenic chemicals, drugs, and radiation are elaborately elucidated. Bone marrow cells are easily susceptible to oxidative damage and sensitive to various clastogenic as well as aneugenic agents.

This book explores an adventurous life of engagement in the challenges of economic development in a destitute China (1946-47), war-torn Korea (1951-52), divided Vietnam (1955-1957), and post-Sukarno Indonesia (1966-71). It also relates the author's subsequent experiences helping South Korea enter onto its high growth trajectory and Indonesia to modernize its financial system. Interspersed are vignettes of academic life at Deep Springs College, Cornell University, University of Michigan, Vanderbilt University and Harvard, and the challenges of working with the Navajo Nation to extract revenue and reduce pollution from exploitative coal-mining and power companies, as well as trying to devise an appropriate and viable approach to rural development for the remote, politically and culturally divided district of Abyei, on the border between North and South Sudan. Finally, it describes the author's efforts at preserving environmental and historical resources in Southeast Massachusetts. Throughout, the book recounts and acknowledges the important roles of teachers, colleagues, friends and family in enriching the author's fortunate life.
