Two experienced and well-known research scientists, each from a vastly different part of the world, have combined their respective expertises to provide the reader with perhaps a unique text which presents an in-depth treatment of the various stress manifestations and an overall discussion of stress in cultivated plants. Professor Bryan McKersie of Canada, who over the years has been active in research, teaching and agricultural application of scientific techniques, has dealt with and described cold, chilling, flooding, desiccation and oxidative stress phenomena: Professor Ya'acov Leshem of Israel, whose research experience and activities have centered around different facets of plant stress, has covered heat, drought, salinity and environmental pollution. Notwithstanding their different research experiences, both authors have cooperated and together have written a well-integrated and up-to-date text describing the major stress factors and problems which are limiting factors for optimal plant growth and hence of yield. The information assembled carefully in this book makes no claim to provide ready-made remedies to overcome the various stresses but in many cases suggests feasible and scientifically applicable approaches and partial solutions for stress coping, some of which are now in the process of being developed. This book is intended for research workers and students of agriculture and horticulture, for plant physiologists and is of overall interest to scientists dealing with stress physiology.

In the Service of Free India Memoir of a Civil Servant

pokkari
DescriptionIn the decades following 1947, as the tallest national leaders were building anew India, they were supported by a band of idealistic civil servants fiercelycommitted to the country's Constitution and its people. Among these remarkableofficers was Bhairab Datt Pande, a young man from the Himalayan district ofKumaon, who joined the Indian Civil Service in 1939. Over almost forty years ascivil servant, and later as governor, he played an important role in the country'sadministration, and interacted with leaders like Indira Gandhi (as cabinetsecretary during the Emergency), Morarji Desai and Jyoti Basu. His memoir-which, respecting his wish, is being published posthumously-is a fascinatingrecord of his own life and that of India in the half century after Independence.Pande chronicles several landmark events and initiatives that he eitherparticipated in or witnessed. He helped increase food-grain allotment to thestate as food commissioner of Bihar in the early 1950s and drew up a newfamine code as land reforms commissioner. His work in the CommunityDevelopment programme some years later still has important lessons for today'sPanchayati Raj institutions. After retirement, he was governor of West Bengalduring the resurgence of Naxalism in the early 1980s, and of Punjab in 1983-84-a tragic and turbulent year in the history of the state and the nation. Pandechose to resign as governor rather than carry out unconstitutional orders. Hiscompelling narration of the behind-the-scenes events and negotiations leadingup to the Anandpur Sahib Resolution and Operation Bluestar is of great value.Engaging and inspiring in equal measure, this memoir is both a fascinating recordof an extraordinary life and an important and revealing historical document.
Life sometimes takes unexpected turns. The twists and turns of one's life add up to the meaning and the very essence of life. But what when these twists and turns become a threat to life itself and when you are left gasping for your breath in absence of any solution. When there seems to be no respite from the havoc unleashed by the fear of the unknown. Corona, when it introduced itself to the humanity, made the whole world wind up itself and confine within the four walls to helplessly watch the dance of the death. Humanity when it seemed had surrendered to this fear, it rose up with all its might and the undying spirit of the eternity. Covid was finally defeated. But it left a never lasting impression on humanity. This book tries to highlight the ordeal faced by the not so ordinary spirit of the ordinary mankind, it's experiences and it's endeavours for the survival.

Following the development of gray-scale imaging, real-time scanning, Doppler examination, and high-frequency sonography, endosonography is one of the latest major breakthroughs in the history of diagnostic ultrasound. Although early attempts at inserting ultrasound transducers in natural cavities of the body can be traced back more than two decades, only in the past few years has technology allowed the development and commercialization of effective, easy-to-use endosono scopic probes. Because the transducer can be placed in direct contact with or close to lesions, high frequencies (up to ~2 MHz) can be used, yielding cross-sectional images of unsurpassed resolution. The availability of specially designed intracorporeal probes for specific natural cavities that are routinely explored by conventional (optical) endoscopy or palpation has significantly expanded the diagnostic applications of sonography. Transrectal and transvaginal examinations are now performed routinely in many institutions, and virtually all sonographic equipment manufac turers have in their line of products at least one endorectal and one endovaginal transducer. Most endosonoscopic probes connect to existing scanners, and for radiology departments, the invest ment for transrectal or transvaginal scanning will usually be limited to the purchase of the specific probe. In this book, clinical applications of endosonography (excluding transesophageal echocardio graphy) are covered by European and North American experts. Current equipment and techniques of examination are described in detail to help newcomers get started in the field of endosonography.
The sons of God saw the daughters of men, that they were fair; and they took them wives of all which they chose. - Genesis 6:2 Every world mythology contains the same story, hidden in plain sight. "Understand that the sons of light watch us now; they watch us only They are not beings who walk among us " 15,000 B.C.E. Cleito meets a handsome stranger who will one day be known as a god. Her grandfather, the shaman, fears and mistrusts the newcomer who is changing the land, against the ancient teachings. The shaman fears too for Cleito's young sister, who is having troubled dreams and channelling unnatural voices. But gods and lovers are wilful, and Cleito will soon have to choose between romance, destiny and her upbringing, no matter the consequences. And 'Aatlae' is not the only supernatural being with an eye on her homeland. When otherworldly forces set their sights on Atlantis, not even the children of the gods will be safe. Told across two generations, Children of the Gods brings Plato's lost continent to life in this darkly funny epic tale, richly imagined and alive with gods, monsters, and myth.
