Published in 1993: This book provides a comprehensive discussion of
the relationships between host plant structure and pathological
anatomy. Topics include the structure and development of gum ducts,
wound reactions, systemic invasion by bacterial pathogens, diseases
caused by MLOs, and responses to cold temperatures.
For the past decade, it has been apparent to both of us that a
reference text covering all aspects of tree defense mechanisms to
fungi was missing, needed and long overdue. Such a book would
provide a clear, comprehensive overview of how living roots, stems
and leaves respond to fungal pathogens. The need for such a book
became in creasingly clear to us from our conversations with each
other, as well as from our interactions with students and
colleagues who desired a sourcebook containing reviews of
morphological, biochemical and physiological aspects of
host-parasite interactions in trees. During a field trip sponsored
by the Forest Pathology Committee of the Ameri can
Phytopathological Society, on a bus from one site to another, we
decided to take the responsibility to prepare a book of this type
and began to plan its composition. To adequately address the topic
of this book as we had envisioned it, we believed that
well-illustrated chapters were needed in order to reflect the
important advances made by the many investigators who have examined
the anatomical and physiological changes that occur when trees are
attacked by fungi. We are grateful to Dr. Tore Timell, the Wood
Science editor for Springer-Verlag, for supporting our efforts and
for providing an avenue to publish such a profusely il lustrated
volume."
Less than 50 years after the publication of Marshall's "Principles"
Cambridge once again set economics on a new path with the
publication of Keynes' "General Theory". This book examines the
developments in Cambridge monetary and trade cycle theory that were
moving it forwards but were also sowing the seeds for the collapse
of the Marshallian neo-classical framework.;The analysis shows how
Cambridge economists such as Keynes, Robertson, Lavington and
Hawtrey had built on the foundations of Marshall and Pigou to
produce theories of adaptive behaviour under certainty which
acknowledged that the invisible hand could fail in the short run.
This established a conflict with the long-run theory of market
clearing equilibrium which, though it could be ignored at first,
had finally to be resolved.

The new edition of this successful textbook has been completely updated, with extensive new material on thermohaline processes in the ocean and their link to both abrupt and longer-term climate change. It will be an appropriate course and reference book for students studying earth and environmental sciences, oceanography, meteorology and climatology. The book will also be useful for students and teachers of geography, physics, chemistry and biology. First Edition Hb (1996): 0-521-45212-0 First Edition Pb (1996): 0-521-58268-7
Comprehensive textbook on ocean-climate interaction for
undergraduates studying earth and environmental sciences,
oceanography, meteorology and climatology.
