This book describes a program of research in computable structure
theory. The goal is to find definability conditions corresponding
to bounds on complexity which persist under isomorphism. The
results apply to familiar kinds of structures (groups, fields,
vector spaces, linear orderings Boolean algebras, Abelian p-groups,
models of arithmetic). There are many interesting results already,
but there are also many natural questions still to be answered. The
book is self-contained in that it includes necessary background
material from recursion theory (ordinal notations, the
hyperarithmetical hierarchy) and model theory (infinitary formulas,
consistency properties).

The present decade has brought a sharp deterioration in living
conditions in many developing countries, especially in Africa and
Latin America. Incomes per capita have declined and social
expenditure has been cut, with setbacks in nutrition, school
enrolment and health services as a result. The burden of economic
adjustment tends to fall most heavily on the poor and on vulnerable
groups, such as children. This is not only a tragedy in itself but
also a waste of human resources and it has led to renewed attention
to the role of human resources in the process of development.;This
is, of course, not a new issue. It has long been understood that
the realization of the full potential of human beings is both a
means and an end in itself and that the reduction of poverty should
be a primary aim of development. But all too often development
tends to bypass the poor unless steps are taken to ensure that they
share its benefits; and in times of austerity their position tends
to worsen further. Hence, the present search for ways to alleviate
poverty, combat hunger and uphold educational and health standards,
even in times of economic distress.; This book, containing studies

For decades, experts and the public have been at odds over the
nature and magnitude of risks and how they should be mitigated
through policy. Experts argue that the fears of the public are
irrational, and that public policy should be based on sound
science. The public, on the other hand, is skeptical of experts,
and believe policy should represent their interests. How do policy
analysts make sense of these competing views? Science, Risk and
Policy answers this question by examining how people evaluate
evidence, how science is conducted, and how a multi-disciplinary
framework to risk can inform policy by bridging the gap between
experts and the public. This framework is then applied to four case
studies: pesticides, genetically engineered foods, climate change,
and nuclear power. By tracing the history of the science, policies
and regulations, and evaluating arguments made about these risks,
Andrew J. Knight provides a guide to understand how experts and the
public view risks.
