Trade Imbalance

In many countries, citizens allege that trade policies undermine specific rights such as labor rights, the right to health, or the right to political participation. However, in some countries, policy makers use trade policies to promote human rights. Although scholars, policy makers and activists have long debated this relationship, in truth we know very little about it. This book enters this murky territory with three goals. First, it aims to provide readers with greater insights into the relationship between human rights and trade. Second, it includes the first study of how South Africa, Brazil, the United States, and the European Union coordinate trade and human rights objectives and resolve conflicts. It also looks at how human rights issues are seeping into the WTO. Finally, it provides suggestions to policy makers for making their trade and human rights policies more coherent.

James Brandt got busted with drugs and a gun in his car. James Brandt went to juvie. James Brandt hung himself in his cell... Caroline Brandt doesn't believe any of it. Ian Rhodes, one of his cellmates, has suspicions about James' death. When Caroline contacts Ian on the inside, his suspicions are confirmed. The discrepancies in the facts behind James' death lead them both to one conclusion: James Brandt was murdered. Ian and his cellmates in Carson Detention Center have three commonalities with James: All of them were arrested for crimes they didn't commit. Each of them have off-the-charts IQs, and they all manipulated an online game, IrreScan, the same way right before they landed in Carson. Whoever set them up has an ulterior motive, and it's tied to the deadly game. James was the first to go, and with each life-threatening, virtual game session they're forced to play, another cellmate goes missing. But who's next? With Caroline piecing together clues on the outside, and Ian digging for information on the inside, it's a race to end the game before the game ends them. Fans of Ready Player One and virtual reality gameplay will devour IrreScan.

Intrinsically photosensitive retinal ganglion cells (ipRGCs) are the most recently discovered photoreceptor class in the human retina. This Element integrates new knowledge and perspectives from visual neuroscience, psychology, sleep science and architecture to discuss how melanopsin-mediated ipRGC functions can be measured and their circuits manipulated. It reveals contemporary and emerging lighting technologies as powerful tools to set mind, brain and behaviour.

The innocence of childhood does not protect against exposure to stress. More than half of US children are exposed to adverse experiences, such as abuse, neglect, witnessing domestic violence, parental psychopathology, or divorce, and all children encounter normative stressors like school transitions and challenges with peers. This Element discusses research on stress psychobiology during childhood, from birth to age ten. The Element focuses on important contexts that shape children's responses to stress and their coping capacities, including the family system, peers, schools, neighborhoods, the broader culture, as well as clinical settings. Sources of stress and resilience in each context are described.

This book features four peer-reviewed reviews on optimising reproductive efficiency in pigs.The first chapter highlights some of the main factors which are known to affect reproductive efficiency in pigs, including gilt development, litter size, control of the weaning to oestrus interval and season infertility. Management strategies designed to help producers continue to make a profit are also discussed.The second chapter introduces the concept of artificial insemination and details its importance in mitigating future challenges encountered by the global pig industry. The chapter also considers a range of factors which can affect the reproductive efficiency of boars, including low sperm count and semen quality.The third chapter reviews the advances and trade-offs of genetic selection for improved reproductive performance in modern sows, such as an increase in piglet mortality rates. The chapter also includes informed discussions on breeding for improved conception rate, litter size and maternal behaviour.The final chapter summarises the basic physiology of porcine female reproduction, including ovarian structure and function, folliculogenesis and steroidogenesis. It also describes stages of the porcine oestrous cycle. Further, emerging exposures and alterations to ambient temperatures and how they affect porcine female reproductive function are included.
