This book features five peer-reviewed reviews on ensuring the welfare of broilers.The first chapter considers the range of factors that pose a significant threat to broiler welfare, focussing on the impact of fast-growing broilers and high stocking densities. The chapter reviews how these factors have been addressed within the European Union through the inclusion of two case studies. The second chapter builds on research covered in the first chapter and details the welfare issues that can arise as a result of intensively reared broiler flocks. The chapter discusses the development of leg disorders and lameness, as well as contact dermatitis.The third chapter reviews the major welfare issues related to the management of broiler breeders, including feed and water restriction, excisions and the potential for management strategies to have transgenerational effects.The fourth chapter similarly addresses the welfare issues that can arise in the housing of broiler breeders, but instead focusses on the impact of these factors on increased levels of aggression and consequent aggressive behaviour, such as feather-pecking.The final chapter explores the use of group-level technologies to monitor and automate poultry welfare assessments of broilers, focussing on the use of visual images retained from CCTV and video, as well as sound and temperature sensing.

This book is about kids today returning home. It doesn't work. And in many instances, neither do they. It's funny; they want to be treated like adults with the same perks of a child, not limited to free board, meals included. Unlimited snacks, electricity, laundering. Yet they want complete, unabridged independence which automatically exempts them from any and all parent-child discussions (lecturing), advice (nagging), or concern (doting). As you read through the book you will recognize familiar instances that pertain to your kids. The book is a fast fun read and the characters are surly someone you know.

'A VIBRANT PROPHET OF THE PRESENCE OF GOD' is how Pope John Paul IIdescribed Elizabeth of the Trinity. In this compelling book, we enter deeplyinto her life and spirituality and see just how relevant Elizabeth's message is for those of us living in today's highly secularised society.Attractive, lively, ardent, talented, yet with her share of faults, Elizabethshows that when we give ourselves to God, he builds on our nature andtransforms us gradually into himself. She challenges us to follow her exampleand respond to God's universal call to holiness, while reawakening us to theimmense depth and beauty of the normal channels of God's grace: prayer andthe sacraments.The author shows how Elizabeth offers a compelling witness of holiness tothe Church of today for 'Her life is what God wills every life to be'.Cardinal Albert de Courtray, former Bishop of Dijon, expressed it succinctly: "It is easy to see how Elizabeth's message is addressed to all Christians.She never for one moment entertained the idea that her calling as aCarmelite conferred some sort of spiritual superiority on her. ForChristian spiritual life is founded upon faith, baptism and becoming evermore like Jesus Christ; so that whatever the Christian may be, whateverhis or her moral, psychological or social condition, he or she is alwaysthat 'new humanity' in which Christ will come again to renew all hismystery.""This is a truly remarkable book. It is written in a clear, simple and engaging style by an author who shares with us her deep love of Elizabeth of the Trinity and her profound grasp of Elizabeth's spirituality, centred on the indwelling presence of God in every baptised person. The book offers us deep insights into the development of Elizabeth's inner life and the major themes in her writings, as seen through the eyes of someone who speaks from first-hand experience and with authority about the life of a Carmelite nun." James McCaffrey, O.C.D. (Editor of Mount Carmel magazine)Sr Marian Teresa Murphy, a Carmelite of St Joseph's Monastery, Liverpool, England completed her MA dissertation on Elizabeth of the Trinity with distinction.She is the author of Always Believe in Love - Selected Spiritual Writings of Elizabeth of theTrinity. An engaging speaker, she has made several CDs on various aspects of Elizabeth's life and spirituality, which form the basis of this inspiring book.

A Positron Named Priscilla is a book of wonder, offering a fascinating, readable overview of cutting-edge investigations by many of today's leading young scientists. Written for anyone who loves science, this volume reports on some of the most exciting recent discoveries and advances in fields from astronomy to molecular biology. This new book is from one of the world's most prestigious scientific institutions, the National Academy of Sciences. The Academy provides an annual forum for the brightest young investigators to exchange ideas across disciplines—an exchange that was the spark for A Positron Named Priscilla. Each chapter is authored by a popular science writer who offers helpful historical perspectives, clear and well-illustrated explanations of current scientific thinking, and previews of future developments. The scope of topics and breadth of discussion ensure interest at all levels. Topics include: Planetary science and the compelling glimpse through the clouded atmosphere of Venus afforded by the spacecraft Magellan. Astrophysics and the emergence of helioseismology, a new field that allows researchers to probe the interior workings of the sun. Biology and what we have learned about DNA in the 40 years since its discovery; our current understanding of protein molecules, the "building blocks" of living systems; and the high-tech search for answers to the AIDS epidemic. Physics and our new-found ability to move and manipulate individual atoms on a surface. The book also tells the remarkable story of "buckyballs," or buckminsterfullerenes, a form of carbon discovered only a few years ago, that have the potential to be used in a variety of important applications, from superconductivity to nanotechnology. Mathematics and the rise of "wavelet" theory, and how mathematicians are applying it in sometimes startling ways, from assisting the FBI with fingerprint storage to coaxing the secrets from a battered recording of Brahms playing the piano. Geosciences and the search for "clocks in the earth" to make life-saving earthquake predictions. A Positron Named Priscilla is a "must" read for anyone who wants to keep up with a broad range of scientific endeavor.

Synen på psykisk hälsa och ohälsa har blivit mer komplex under de senaste åren. I det biopsykosociala perspektivet, som presenteras i denna bok, förespråkas att psykisk hälsa och ohälsa måste förstås inte bara som psykologiska fenomen, utan också som biologiska och sociala. Författarna integrerar således evidensbaserad psykologisk kunskap med etablerad kunskap om medicinska och sociala faktorers betydelse för psykisk ohälsa.I Psykisk ohälsa presenteras ett biopsykosocialt perspektiv på de vanligaste psykiska ohälsotillstånden, exempelvis depressiva syndrom, paniksyndrom, olika ångestsyndrom, trauma- och stressrelaterade syndrom samt adhd och sömnrelaterade syndrom. Psykofarmakologi, suicidalitet och forskningsmetoder inom fältet avhandlas också.Boken riktar sig främst till yrkesverksamma psykologer, till studenter vid utbildningar inom psykologi och vård samt till studerande vid kurser om psykisk hälsa och ohälsa.

A rebel and feminist, the Switzerland-born Miriam Cahn is one of the major artists of her generation. Widely known for her drawings and paintings, she also experiments with photography, moving images, sculptures, and performance art. Cahn’s diverse body of work is disturbing and dreamlike, filled with striking human figures pulsing with an energy both passionate and violent. These pieces, along with Cahn’s reflections on artistic expression, have always responded to her contemporary moment. In the 1980s, her work addressed the feminist, peace, and environmental movements, while the work she produced in the 1990s and early 2000s contains allusions to the war in the former Yugoslavia, the conflict in the Middle East, and the September 11 terrorist attacks. Her recent production tackles ever-evolving political conflicts, engaging with the European refugee crisis and the “#metoo” movement.Miriam Cahn: I as Human examines different facets of the artist’s prolific and troubling oeuvre, featuring contributions from art historians, critics, and philosophers including Kathleen Bühler, Paul B. Preciado, Elisabeth Lebovici, Adam Szymczyk, Natalia Sielewicz and .

Werner Aspenström (1918-1997) är fortfarande en av våra mest levande poeter, trots att han för länge sedan gått ur tiden. Under årens lopp har många författare låtit sig inspireras av hans strävt bejakande och lågmält ifrågasättande poesi, och stärkts av hans aldrig sviktande humanistiska livshållning. Werner Aspenströmsällskapet har sedan 2006 årligen delat ut det världsunika priset bestående av den röda molntröjan. Det är också ett rakt igenom jämställt pris. Lika många män som kvinnor har hittills fått en stickad tröja efter modell som Werner själv bar. Samtliga återfinns med egna skönlitterära verk i denna antologi.

Image Bite Politics is the first book to systematically assess the visual presentation of presidential candidates in network news coverage of elections and to connect these visual images with shifts in public opinion. Presenting the results of a comprehensive visual analysis of general election news from 1992-2004, encompassing four presidential campaigns, the authors highlight the remarkably potent influence of television images when it comes to evaluating leaders. The book draws from a variety of disciplines, including political science, behavioral biology, cognitive neuroscience, and media studies, to investigate the visual framing of elections in an incisive, fresh, and interdisciplinary fashion. Moreover, the book presents findings that are counterintuitive and challenge widely held assumptions--yet are supported by systematic data. For example, Republicans receive consistently more favorable visual treatment than Democrats, countering the conventional wisdom of a "liberal media bias"; and image bites are more prevalent, and in some elections more potent, in shaping voter opinions of candidates than sound bites. Finally, the authors provide a foundation for promoting visual literacy among news audiences and bring the importance of visual analysis to the forefront of research.
