Drawing on the expertise of researchers from around the world, the
second edition of this invaluable handbook, now updated to cover
the lastest advances across several areas of research, offers one
of the most complete and respected references on biodiesel
development, improvements, and applications. It covers the
conversion of vegetable oils, animal fats, and used oils into
biodiesel fuel. The handbook delivers solutions to issues
associated with biodiesel feedstocks, production issues, quality
control, viscosity, stability, and applications, as well as
emissions and other environmental impacts. In addition to technical
material, it updates readers on the status of the biodiesel
industry worldwide.
Many of the things we do, we do together with other people. Think
of carpooling and playing tennis. In the past two or three decades
it has become increasingly popular to analyze such collective
actions in terms of collective intentions. This volume brings
together ten new philosophical essays that address issues such as
how individuals succeed in maintaining coordination throughout the
performance of a collective action, whether groups can actually
believe propositions or whether they merely accept them, and what
kind of evidence, if any, disciplines such as cognitive science and
semantics provide in support of irreducibly collective states. The
theories of the Big Four of collective intentionality - Michael
Bratman, Raimo Tuomela, John Searle, and Margaret Gilbert - and the
Big Five of Social Ontology - which in addition to the Big Four
includes Philip Pettit - play a central role in almost all of these
essays. Drawing on insights from a wide range of disciplines
including dynamical systems theory, economics, and psychology, the
contributors develop existing theories, criticize them, or provide
alternatives to them. Several essays challenge the idea that there
is a straightforward dichotomy between individual and collective
level rationality, and explore the interplay between these levels
in order to shed new light on the alleged discontinuities between
them. These contributions make abundantly clear that it is no
longer an option simply to juxtapose analyses of individual and
collective level phenomena and maintain that there is a
discrepancy. Some go as far as arguing that on closer inspection
the alleged discontinuities dissolve
