This volume showcases for the first time in the Clarendon Ancient History Series one of the best-known prose authors of classical Athens: Xenophon. Poroi (or, Revenue-Sources) was the final work of his large and varied output, written in the mid-350s BCE at a time when Athens had failed to prevent the collapse of her second Aegean 'empire', and was impoverished and demoralized in consequence. Back in Athens after a lifetime abroad, the elderly Xenophon took an optimistic view of the plight of his fellow-citizens: though their days as a free-spending imperial power may have been over, they could fall back on the city's own, unique assets - both human (the large community of resident and visiting foreigners) and material (the natural resources of Attica itself, notably the silver-mines) - strategically exploiting them in order to set the city on the road to peace and prosperity. Xenophon fleshed out this general position with many specific proposals, in doing so situating Poroi not only in a tradition of early economic thought, but also in the realm of practical politics. Framed by a General Introduction and the first-ever full Commentary on the work in English, this new and unprecedentedly accurate translation offers an authoritative yet accessible overview of the text, its context, and its historical, socio-political, and economic implications that will be invaluable to both students new to the work and to more experienced scholars. Challenging the view that there is a significant overlap between Xenophon's ideas and the policies associated (in the 350s and 340s) with Euboulos, it argues, rather, that Poroi was ahead of its time and in fact anticipated the programme of Athens' leading statesman of the 330s and 320s: Lykourgos.

This book provides a comprehensive overview of grassland nitrogen incorporating information from crop science, soils and fertilizers, ruminant consumption and environmental aspects. The published information is reviewed on the various transformations of nitrogen in temperate grassland systems. These include those taking place in soils. The effects of soil, weather and management practices are discussed and considerable emphasis is placed on soil-plant-animal interactions. A second aim of the book is to describe the factors that influence the response of grassland to the application of fertilizer nitrogen, and how the optimum rate of application may be determined. In addition, nitrogen balances are described for different grassland systems, showing how the annual inputs and outputs vary greatly depending on sward type and management. The book is of interest to a wide readership, especially those engaged in research, teaching and advisory work, and students taking courses in agricultural and environmental sciences.

This book is an essential reference source covering the chemical elements that are nutrients for plants or grazing animals. It deals with the concentrations and transformations of these elements in soils, grassland plants, and ruminant animals, particularly cattle and sheep. For each element, the following data are given: forms occurring in soil, factors that affect availability and concentration, uptake and distribution in grassland plants, role in animal nutrition, amounts and forms excreted by grazing animals, and concentrations needed by ruminant animals.

Affirmations are positive statements that can help you to challenge and overcome self-sabotaging and negative thoughts. Through his years of experience in the sexual recovery industry, David Whitehead has compiled a comprehensive list of 401 positive affirmations that are designed to help anyone re-focus their sexual thoughts and urges. No matter how strong. "Any time someone is experiencing an urge, no matter how strong, I need them to pick up this book and read these affirmations aloud. If you are still struggling after reading a few, keep going -- I promise that this will help to put everything into perspective" -David Whitehead, AuthorAs a sex addict, sexual thoughts, romantic fantasies, and seductive planning can fill your mind and distort your thinking. Sex becomes a way to escape your feelings and responsibilities. An important first step is to first admit you are powerless over addictive sexual behavior-that your life has become unmanageable. You cannot let addiction win.I am free from sex addiction Sex addiction will no longer control my life I am dedicated to overcoming my addiction to sex I am always in control of my sexual urges I am no longer seeing others as sex objectsI am living a life free from sex addiction I am developing a strong will power I find it easy to say NO to my own sexual urges I am 100% in control of my own life I have a healthy attitude towards sex I forgive myself for what I have done For most people, sexual fantasies and behaviors are pathways to fun, happiness, and intimate connection. Sexual addicts, on the other hand, use these activities compulsively, and over time they lose control and have to deal with difficult life consequences as a result. Their belief systems, their self-esteem, their relationships suffer, all thanks to their addiction. If you are sexually addicted, or you think that someone you know and care about is sexually addicted, I hope that the affirmations in this book will contribute to the process of recovery, healing and reforming meaningful connections and restoring value to your life. One day at a time.
