This book discusses the resilience of communities in both developed
and developing world contexts. It investigates the notion of
'resilience' and the challenges faced by local communities around
the world to deal with disturbances (natural hazards or human-made)
that may threaten their long-term survival. Using global examples,
specific emphasis is placed on how learning processes, traditions,
policies and politics affect the resilience of communities and what
constraints and opportunities exist for communities to raise
resilience levels.
This book focuses on understanding farming transition pathways
towards sustainability, using case studies from Europe. It assesses
the utility of the multi-level perspective in transition theory for
addressing contemporary issues and identifies future research
needs, making it an essential read for researchers of rural or
agricultural change.

Geoff Wilson is well known for his expertise in developing knots
for fishing, however, the application of these knots to specific
fishing situations, techniques, and fish species has often been
left to the novice to discover. In "Complete Book of Fishing
Systems," Geoff takes a selection of fishing knots and explains how
to apply them to a series of rigs for situations that the angler
will encounter.
Covering situations from light line fishing, which a novice may
find incomprehensible as they start, to the more elaborate game
fishing and stronger fishing requirements, this book is a wealth of
practical fishing instruction.
This book, from the series Primary Sources: Historical Books of the
World (Asia and Far East Collection), represents an important
historical artifact on Asian history and culture. Its contents come
from the legions of academic literature and research on the subject
produced over the last several hundred years. Covered within is a
discussion drawn from many areas of study and research on the
subject. From analyses of the varied geography that encompasses the
Asian continent to significant time periods spanning centuries, the
book was made in an effort to preserve the work of previous
generations.
