Encyclopedia of Dairy Sciences (Hardcover, 3rd edition): Paul L.H. Mcsweeney, John P. McNamara Encyclopedia of Dairy Sciences (Hardcover, 3rd edition)
Paul L.H. Mcsweeney, John P. McNamara
R57,209 Discovery Miles 572 090 Ships in 12 - 17 working days

Dairy science includes the study of milk and milk-derived food products, examining the biological, chemical, physical, and microbiological aspects of milk itself, as well as the technological (processing) aspects of the transformation of milk into its various consumer products, including beverages, fermented products, concentrated and dried products, butter and ice cream. This encyclopedia includes information on the possible impact of genetic modification of dairy animals, safety concerns of raw milk and raw milk products, peptides in milk, dairy-based allergies, packaging and shelf-life and other topics of importance and interest to those in dairy research and industry. The Encyclopedia of Dairy Sciences, Five Volume Set is the only work available that covers in detail the entirety of dairy science, from husbandry of dairy animals, milk production, through the processing of milk into a myriad of dairy products and ingredients, to the effect of dairy foods on human health. The third edition of Encyclopedia of Dairy Sciences will retain the split that characterized the earlier editions - one-third primary production, two-thirds dairy food. Unlike earlier editions, in which articles were arranged in alphabetical order by topic, this edition will be optimally organized into 9 coherent sections. This new edition contains 500 articles, the vast majority of which has been significantly revised or is completely new. Only 40 chapters have been retained from the earlier edition as they cover basic science areas still relevant and important today. All articles have been reviewed by specialists in their area.

Crossing the Line - Interracial Couples in the South (Hardcover, New): Robert P. McNamara, Maria Tempenis, Beth Walton Crossing the Line - Interracial Couples in the South (Hardcover, New)
Robert P. McNamara, Maria Tempenis, Beth Walton
R2,253 Discovery Miles 22 530 Ships in 10 - 15 working days

Despite the increased number of interracial marriages in recent years, Black/White couples still experience a host of problems in American society, particularly in the South. Drawing on extensive interviews with 28 Black/White couples living in the South, this ethnographic study describes the issues and obstacles these couples have to face and documents their overwhelming sense of social isolation. The problems include hostility, encountered while the couple is in public, ranging from stares to outright attacks, as well as a lack of support and ostracization by their families. After discussing the nature of Black/White relationships and the historical implications of interracial couples--beginning with slavery--the authors adopt a life history approach, which allows them to probe deeply into the meaning of the interviewees' responses.

Norms, Logics and Information Systems - New Studies on Deontic Logic and Computer Science (Hardcover): H. Prakken, P. McNamara Norms, Logics and Information Systems - New Studies on Deontic Logic and Computer Science (Hardcover)
H. Prakken, P. McNamara
R2,300 Discovery Miles 23 000 Ships in 12 - 17 working days

This book presents research in an interdisciplinary field, resulting from the vigorous and fruitful cross-pollination between traditional deontic logic and computer science. AI researchers have used deontic logic as one of the tools in modelling legal reasoning. Computer scientists have discovered that computer systems (including their interaction with other computer systems and with human agents) can often be productively modelled as norm-governed. So, for example, deontic logic has been applied by computer scientists for specifying bureaucratic systems, access and security policies, and soft design or integrity constraints, and for modelling fault tolerance. In turn, computer scientists and AI researchers have also discovered (and made it clear to the rest of us) that various formal tools (e.g. nonmonotonic, temporal and dynamic logics) developed in computer science and artificial intelligence have interesting applications to traditional issues in deontic logic. This volume presents some of the best work done in this area, with the selection at once reflecting the general interdisciplinary (and international) character that this area of research has taken on, as well as reflecting the more specific recent inter-disciplinary developments between traditional deontic logic and computer science.

Liberalism, Conservatism, and Hayek's Idea of Spontaneous Order (Hardcover, 2007 ed.): P. McNamara, L Hunt Liberalism, Conservatism, and Hayek's Idea of Spontaneous Order (Hardcover, 2007 ed.)
P. McNamara, L Hunt
R1,535 Discovery Miles 15 350 Ships in 10 - 15 working days

For Hayek, spontaneous order - the emergence of complex order as the unintended consequence of individual actions that have no such end in view - is both the origin of the Great Society and its underlying principle. These sometimes critical essays assess Hayek's position and argue that his work can inform contemporary social and political dilemmas.

The Times Square Hustler - Male Prostitution in New York City (Hardcover, New): Robert P. McNamara The Times Square Hustler - Male Prostitution in New York City (Hardcover, New)
Robert P. McNamara
R2,797 Discovery Miles 27 970 Ships in 10 - 15 working days

The author became interested in male prostitution while researching populations susceptible to AIDS. He found such a population in male prostitutes in Times Square which had developed a community to deal with common problems. Among these changing the community were AIDS, crack cocaine, and urban redevelopment. This work is directed to sociologists, social workers, and those interested in popular culture.

Sex, Scams, and Street Life - The Sociology of New York City's Times Square (Hardcover, New): Robert P. McNamara Sex, Scams, and Street Life - The Sociology of New York City's Times Square (Hardcover, New)
Robert P. McNamara
R2,231 Discovery Miles 22 310 Ships in 10 - 15 working days

For more than 60 years, Times Square has reigned as one of New York's premiere tourist attractions. In recent years, an average of 20 million people visit New York City, and Times Square is a sight most do not miss. The reason for this is that Times Square holds something for everyone: theaters, restaurants, entertainment, and a transportation center that brings almost 400,000 people into the city every day. For a sociologist interested in studying crime and the ways in which deviant networks and communities emerge, Times Square offers numerous opportunities. Because large segments of these groups pride themselves on anonymity, many researchers employ ethnographic research methods. The articles in this manuscript focus on the various aspects of Time Square using the ethnographic approach. The topics include the sex trade, drugs and drug dealing, recent redevelopment efforts, the social ecology of Times Square, and a discussion of police operations in this marketplace.

Semantic Priming - Perspectives from Memory and Word Recognition (Paperback): Timothy P. McNamara Semantic Priming - Perspectives from Memory and Word Recognition (Paperback)
Timothy P. McNamara
R1,709 Discovery Miles 17 090 Ships in 12 - 17 working days

Semantic priming has been a focus of research in the cognitive sciences for more than thirty years and is commonly used as a tool for investigating other aspects of perception and cognition, such as word recognition, language comprehension, and knowledge representations. Semantic Priming: Perspectives from Memory and Word Recognition examines empirical and theoretical advancements in the understanding of semantic priming, providing a succinct, in-depth review of this important phenomenon, framed in terms of models of memory and models of word recognition. The first section examines models of semantic priming, including spreading activation models, the verification model, compound-cue models, distributed network models, and multistage activation models (e.g. interactive-activation model). The second section examines issues and findings that have played an especially important role in testing models of priming and includes chapters on the following topics: methodological issues (e.g. counterbalancing of materials, choice of priming baselines); automatic vs. strategic priming; associative vs. "pure" semantic priming; mediated priming; long-term semantic priming; backward priming; unconscious priming; the prime-task effect; list context effects; effects of word frequency, stimulus quality, and stimulus repetition; and the cognitive neuroscience of semantic priming. The book closes with a summary and a discussion of promising new research directions. The volume will be of interest to a wide range of researchers and students in the cognitive sciences and neurosciences.
