International trade has grown rapidly over the past half century,
accommodated by the transportation industry through concomitant
growth and technological change. But while the connection between
transport and trade flows is clear, the academic literature often
looks at these two issues separately. This Handbook is unique in
pulling together the key insights of each field while highlighting
what we know about their intersection and ideas for future research
in this relatively unexamined but growing area of study. After
presenting the latest data and modeling techniques used to explain
global trade patterns, the chapters address directly the core theme
of the Handbook: the intersection of international trade and
transportation costs. Other key topics examined include trade
facilitation, trade networks, and the role of transport costs in
offshoring, foreign investment location, and the role of
intermediary firms. The Handbook is an excellent primer on the
essential concepts and references in international trade and
transport for scholars who may have their primary expertise in one
of these areas, but are not as familiar with the other. It will
also be an invaluable resource for advanced undergraduate students,
graduate students, and other researchers who are relatively new to
either field. Contributors include: L. Alfaro, S.L. Baier, K.

Traditionally, behaviour and physiology have been considered two
separate fields of biology with the majority of available
literature focusing on one or the other. Recently the need for a
multidisciplinary approach to these topics has been realised,
highlighted by some of the sessions to be held at the 2003 annual
meeting of the Society for Integrative and Comparative Biology such
as 'regulation of behaviour' and' mechanisms of behaviour'. The
proposed volume aims to bring together these disciplines in a
comprehensive review of the available literature. Volume 24 will be
novel in actively bridging these two areas of fish biology together
and considering them as inextricably linked. The progression of
chapters focuses on different aspects of the life history of a
fish, from predator avoidance through to reproduction, each written
by scientists currently bridging the gap between behaviour and
physiology in their own specialised subdiscipline.
* Multidisciplinary and integrative research in fish biology
* Written by internationally recognized researchers
* Encompasses the whole life span of fish
* A wide variety of inter-related topics presented in a cohesive
format
This volume presents a process for developing expert systems. As
the field of instructional technology matures it is becoming clear
that technological process, not technological devices, is the
single most important factor in designing effective instruction.
Computers as devices are helpful, but their primary advantage may
be the discipline placed on thinking and design processes by using
them. The process used when examining a problem determines the
quality of information entered into a program and the ultimate
effectiveness of the solution. The process in this volume is
intended for small-scale expert system solutions that contribute to
the solution of instructional problems. Hardware independent, the
volume focuses on narrowly defined examples intended for small
personal computer systems. Particular attention is paid to problems
associated with education and training.
"Building Expert Systems in Training and Education" has one
primary function: to help instructional designers derive the
components of a problem and enter it into an expert system shell.
It is totally process-oriented and focuses on the front-end
knowledge engineering process. It provides a repertoire of
practical tools and processes that can be used to select, define,
and structure problems. Three types of examples are used to
illustrate three ways to use expert systems: for instructional
support, for instructional decision making, and for an
instructional job aid. Each chapter is followed by a list of
learning activities to facilitate practice and consolidation. When
appropriate, answers or examples to the learning activities is
given. This is a practical guide for instructional technology
educators and students, and business and industrial training
professionals.
Originally published in 1992, this book is about political culture.
It examines developments in the social sciences and integrates them
into a theoretical explanation of historical changes in political
values. The starting point is the premise that political culture is
rooted in the interaction between individual thinking and social
norms. Through discourse, individual conceptions of social life are
transformed and, interactively, social norms and cultural
orientations as well. The first two parts of the book explore these
issues theoretically. The second two examine them empirically by
showing the ways that political cultures have changed over time. In
the modern period the differences in the political cultures of
capitalist and communist systems are contrasted; although both
coneptualize social life in terms of property accumulation, they
utilize different cultural orientations to reduce institutional
transaction costs. The way the tensions between these two systems
can be resolved is also explored.

Although precise figures are difficult to ascertain, surveys
suggest that approximately 20%–25% of female-identified and
5%–10% of male-identified college students experience sexual
assault, and 10% of all students experience psychological or
physical abuse by an intimate partner. Among trans, nonbinary, and
other gender-expansive students, rates are even higher.With
consequences that can include emotional distress, difficulty
concentrating and focusing on academic work, mood changes,
excessive substance use, and self-harming behaviors, it's clear
that sexual assault and intimate partner violence are issues that
require an emergent response. Leveraging knowledge from psychiatry,
college mental health, and higher education, Facing Campus Sexual
Assault and Relationship Violence With Courage offers a holistic
approach to preventing, addressing, and mitigating the effects of
campus sexual and relationship violence. This guide combines the
latest science with real-world knowledge and practical application
in four sections that examine: Prevention strategies from early
childhood to middle and high school and on through the collegiate
and graduate level, including how to establish a foundation for
consensual, nonviolent relationships. Systems of response and care,
from institutional responses, including Title IX policy, to models
of trauma-informed campus care. Clinical interventions for
survivors of campus sexual violence—with a special chapter
focused on graduate students—as well as perpetrators. Support for
students from marginalized communities, including queer and
gender-expansive students and students of color. The book also
offers a frank assessment of the power imbalances and systems of
oppression—White supremacy, racism, patriarchy, homophobia, and
transphobia among them—that underpin sexual and relationship
violence. In doing so, it provides a pathway for institutions of
higher education and mental health professionals alike to dismantle
these systems of institutionalized oppression that are all too
common in higher education.
Using the Bible as my structural outline, I have, with much
imagination, charted the story of the spirit world, as angels,
demons, God, and Satan struggle to claim ownership of the human
race. The climax of this age-old battle is the appearance of God's
champion, Jesus, and the solution He alone offers to each one of
us. The story begins in eternity past and concludes in eternity yet
to come. I hope you can identify yourself somewhere in the stream
of traffic, and, in the knowledge of the accomplishment God's
Champion made real, you can with thanksgiving write a personal
postscript, "And we lived happily ever after."
Clinical Anthropology 2.0 presents a new approach to applied
medical anthropology that engages with clinical spaces, healthcare
systems, care delivery and patient experience, public health, as
well as the education and training of physicians. In this book,
Jason W. Wilson and Robert D. Baer highlight the key role that
medical anthropologists can play on interdisciplinary care teams by
improving patient experience and medical education. Included
throughout are real life examples of this approach, such as the
training of medical and anthropology students, creation of clinical
pathways, improvement of patient experiences and communication, and
design patient-informed interventions. This book includes
contributions by Heather Henderson, Emily Holbrook, Kilian Kelly,
Carlos Osorno-Cruz, and Seiichi Villalona.
