Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not
used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad
quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are
images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to
keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the
original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain
imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made
available for future generations to enjoy.
Considerable advances have been made in our understanding of the
eukaryotic cell cycle at the molecular level over the past two
decades or so, particularly in yeast and in animal systems.
However, only in the past three or four years has progress been
made in plants at the molecular level. The present volume brings
together molecular biologists, cell biologists and physiologists to
discuss this recent progress and how it related to our
understanding of the regulation of plant growth and development.
The opening paper summarises the progress which has been made with
fission yeast. Subsequent papers explore what is known about cell
cycle control at the molecular level in plants, and about cell
cycle regulation in specific physiological systems, ending with
summary papers on cell division in roots and shoots. The book
comprises up-to-date findings on a fundamental aspect of plant
growth and development, and as such should be of particular
interest to advanced undergraduates, postgraduates and research
scientists in the fields of molecular biology, cell biology and
physiology.
An historical and contemporary account of migrant crime in
Australia, this book explores a range of issues from mental health
and victimology to immigration policy and legal analysis, arguing
that it is birthplace, not race, which impacts upon crimes
committed by migrants.
This wide-ranging collection offers fresh insights into a critical
factor in development and politics on the African continent. It
critically examines and illustrates the centrality of policing in
transition societies in Africa, and outlines and assesses the
emergence and impact of the diversity of state and non-state
policing agencies.
'The Meetings Handbook' is a comprehensive manual to the rules and
issues of meetings, as well as a useful guide to understanding the
informal processes that underlie the successful conduct of the
business of meetings.
'The Meetings Handbook: Formal Rules and Informal Processes' is
a comprehensive manual to the rules and issues of meetings, as well
as a useful guide to understanding the informal processes that
underlie the successful conduct of the business of meetings. The
handbook gives the formal issues of meeting processes, including
setting agendas and putting forward formal motions. It also
canvasses informal aspects of meetings work, such as preparation,
reading the non-verbal messages of participants, and insights into
how to chair meetings and deal with those who seek to subvert the
formal rules.
This handbook is a unique accompaniment to the more conventional
legal books that are good formal guides. 'The Meetings Handbook'
also includes examples of an ethical code, constitutions, agendas,
and minutes. It features a reference list as well as the usual
scholarly references. In order to make the work readily useable by
the busy professional, the book is divided into sections that may
act as 'stand-alone' guides to specific meetings issues and
strategies.

First published in 1985, information is presented and summarised in
this account of how plant cells divide. The chapters give
information on control points in the cell cycle, on DNA replication
and on the stages of cell and chloroplast division. The specialist
authors together provide a general overview which will interest and
inform all advanced students of the subject.
Corporate social responsibility, sustainability and acting
ethically are all accepted business aims, but their meaning and
implementation in a global context is far less clear-cut. Global
Business Ethics cuts through the confusion to provide a coherent
basis for ethical decision-making within the complications of the
international business landscape. Underpinned by theory and
including worked-through examples of ethical dilemmas and their
solutions, this textbook will guide the reader beyond theory to
real-world business decisions. Practical tools such as decision
trees and suggested principles to apply in dilemma situations give
readers the skills and confidence to tackle the ethical challenges
they face. Global Business Ethics offers a unique working code of
ethics provided as a model with guidance to readers for adaptation
and implementation. Case studies include: Walmart, Hershey's,
Citibank, Ford, Nike, Johnson & Johnson, Harley-Davidson, The
Body Shop and Procter and Gamble. A chapter on the legal aspects of
ethics provides guidance on the complex relationship between law
and ethics in international business. The final part takes an
in-depth look at the practical application of ethics in business
life. Covering all the major theories of ethics, including an
examination of the role of quantification of ethics, Global
Business Ethics demonstrates how their principles can be applied to
inform better business decisions. Online supporting resources for
this book include instructor's manual, lecture slides and
appendices.
