This book describes a pathway for sustainable phosphorus management
via the Global Transdisciplinary Processes for Sustainable
Phosphorus Management project (Global TraPs). Global TraPs is a
multi-stakeholder forum in which scientists from a variety of
disciplines join with key actors in practice to jointly identify
critical questions and to articulate what new knowledge,
technologies and policy processes are needed to ensure that future
phosphorus use is sustainable, improves food security and
environmental quality and provides benefits for the poor. The book
offers insight into economic scarcity and identifies options to
improve efficiency and reduce environmental impacts of
anthropogenic phosphorus flows at all stages of the supply and use
chain.
This volume should enhance health care professionals' understanding
of the myriad complications that develop when a person with an
eating disorder gets married or becomes involved in a long-term
intimate relationship. Drawing on their vast experience in family
therapy, social work, and treatment of eating disorders, the
authors carefully review the current literature on eating disorders
in long-term relationships, and then present a practical approach
to assessment and treatment.
First published in 1994. Routledge is an imprint of Taylor &
Francis, an informa company.
An attractive, promising, and frustrating feature of ecology is its
complex ity, both conceptual and observational. Increasing
acknowledgment of the importance of scale testifies to the shifting
focus in large areas of ecology. In the rush to explore problems of
scale, another general aspect of ecolog ical systems has been given
less attention. This aspect, equally important, is heterogeneity.
Its importance lies in the ubiquity of heterogeneity as a feature
of ecological systems and in the number of questions it raises
questions to which answers are not readily available. What is
heterogeneity? Does it differ from complexity? What dimensions need
be considered to evaluate heterogeneity ade quately? Can
heterogeneity be measured at various scales? Is heterogeneity apart
of organization of ecological systems? How does it change in time
and space? What are the causes of heterogeneity and causes of its
change? This volume attempts to answer these questions. It is
devoted to iden tification of the meaning, range of applications,
problems, and methodol ogy associated with the study of
heterogeneity. The coverage is thus broad and rich, and the
contributing authors have been encouraged to range widely in
discussions and reflections. vi Preface The chapters are grouped
into themes. The first group focuses on the conceptual foundations
(Chapters 1-5). These papers exarnine the meaning of the term,
historical developments, and relations to scale. The second theme
is modeling population and interspecific interactions in hetero
geneous environments (Chapters 6 and 7)."
