Ornamental plants are plants grown for decorative purposes. They
include cut flowers, bulbs, potted plants, shrubs and trees for
gardening and landscape design. Like other crops, ornamentals face
challenges such as biotic and abiotic stresses as well as the need
to develop more sustainable, 'climate-smart' methods of
cultivation. This collection reviews the rich range of research
addressing these challenges. Part 1 discusses advances in
understanding plant physiology, genetic diversity and breeding
techniques. Chapters cover recent research on how plants respond to
abiotic stress, ways of exploiting genetic diversity to improve
target traits, advances in both conventional and marker-assisted
breeding techniques, as well as their use to produce abiotic
stress-resistant varieties. Part 2 surveys advances in cultivation
techniques in such areas as nutrition, irrigation, protected
cultivation and integrated disease management.

A newly updated edition of the best-selling primer on the social,
political, and economic challenges facing Central and South America
Ten years after its first publication, Michael Reid's best-selling
survey of the state of contemporary Latin America has been wholly
updated to reflect the new realities of the "Forgotten Continent."
The former Americas editor for the Economist, Reid suggests that
much of Central and South America, though less poor, less unequal,
and better educated than before, faces harder economic times now
that the commodities boom of the 2000s is over. His revised,
in-depth account of the region reveals dynamic societies more
concerned about corruption and climate change, the uncertainties of
a Donald Trump-led United States, and a political cycle that, in
many cases, is turning from left-wing populism to center-right
governments. This essential new edition provides important insights
into the sweeping changes that have occurred in Latin America in
recent years and indicates priorities for the future.
A knowledgeable appreciation of a complex, vital South American
giant, destined to be one of the world's premier economic powers
Experts believe that Brazil, the world's fifth largest country and
its seventh largest economy, will be one of the most important
global powers by the year 2030. Yet far more attention has been
paid to the other rising behemoths Russia, India, and China. Often
ignored and underappreciated, Brazil, according to renowned,
award-winning journalist Michael Reid, has finally begun to live up
to its potential, but faces important challenges before it becomes
a nation of substantial global significance. After decades of
military rule, the fourth most populous democracy enjoyed effective
reformist leadership that tamed inflation, opened the country up to
trade, and addressed poverty and other social issues, enabling
Brazil to become more of an essential participant in global
affairs. But as it prepares to host the 2014 soccer World Cup and
2016 Olympics, Brazil has been rocked by mass protest. This
insightful volume considers the nation's still abundant problems-an
inefficient state, widespread corruption, dysfunctional politics,
and violent crime in its cities-alongside its achievements to
provide a fully rounded portrait of a vibrant country about to take
a commanding position on the world stage.
An incisive account of modern Spain, from the death of Franco to
the Catalan referendum and beyond Spain's transition to democracy
after Franco's long dictatorship was widely hailed as a success,
ushering in three decades of unprecedented progress and prosperity.
Yet over the past decade its political consensus has been under
severe strain. A stable two-party system has splintered, with
disruptive new parties on the far left and far right. No government
has had a majority since 2015. Michael Reid overturns the
stereotypical view of Spain as a country haunted by its Francoist
past. From Catalan separatism and the indignados movement to the
Spanish economy's overdependence on tourism and small business,
Spain's challenges can often seem unique. But Reid is careful to
emphasize the many pressures it faces in common with its European
neighbors-such as austerity, populism, and increasing polarization.
The result is a penetrating yet rounded portrait of a vibrant
country-one that is more often visited than understood.

An Empowering Book of Poems and EssaysFans of Milk and Honey by
Rupi Kaur, Her by Pierre Alex Jeanty, Whiskey Words and a Shovel by
r.h. Sin, and The Princess Saves Herself in this One by Amanda
Lovelace will love The Boyfriend Book by Michael E. Reid. No more
boyfriends: 300 women sat down with Mike, and after three hours,
299 of them agreed that they never wanted a boyfriend again. The
Boyfriend Book tells you why. Modern love poems and philosophy:
When entrusting her heart to somebody, a woman doesn't want to
worry about the bad and the ugly, such as disloyalty and
disrespect, indifference and contempt, micro-aggression and
outright violence. In a perfect world, every guy would be a "good
guy," and every guy would have her best interest at heart.
Unfortunately, the real world is a dangerous place, particularly
when women have to let strangers in. And while some women are
decent judges of character, others don't see the train coming until
it hits them. Not only does this book serve as a cautionary tale,
it also offers an important perspective on modern love and equips
women with strategies to effectively change their love life and,
most importantly, their inner lives. Transform your life with this
powerful poetry book: Before you open this book, ask yourself:
Where am I now? What are my struggles? What sort of pain do I
carry? What parts of myself have I lost? Then, figure out where you
want to be. This book will get you there. The possibilities for
rebirth and reinvention are endless - but it's ultimately up to you
to make it all happen. This book will help you find a way to go
forward that does not involve sideways. Read it slow. Plant the
seed. Let it grow. The Boyfriend Book is a gripping collection of
short stories, thoughts and poems from Just Mike The Poet.
