Book Description
This volume mainly reports on new and recent advances of different aspects of Pseudomonas syringae, a plant pathogenic bacterial species that includes a high number of pathogens of important crops, which is an important model organism in plant pathology. In addition also some fluorescent Pseudomonas spp., responsible for new and emerging diseases, as well as pathogens previously included in the above genus and now classified in the Genera Ralstonia, Acidovorax are considered.
Each chapter, cured by leading scientists in the field, reports recent knowledge on the ecology and epidemiology, molecular, physiological and biochemical aspects of pathogen-plant interactions, disease management and control, diagnosis and detection, and taxonomy of P. syringae.
This book is an important tool for graduate students, as well as research plant pathologists, plant bacteriologists, plant microbe molecular biologists and cell microbe biologists.

Book Description
Jointly published with INRA, Paris.Bacterial wilt, caused by Ralstonia solanacearum, is a very destructive plant disease that attacks over 450 different species, including many of the most important economic crop plants. Often endemic, the bacterium transmits through the soil, penetrates the plant root system and eventually causes irreversible wilting and death. This book summarizes the current information on bacterial wilt for both the basic research community and for concerned professionals who are faced with the disease in the field, offering the latest approaches to diagnosis and control of the disease. Emphasis is placed on integrated and biologically sustainable control methods. Also presented is the most recent genetic/biochemical research exploring the interaction between the bacterium and its plant host at the molecular level.

Book Description
This book differs from the usual technical analysis text because it brings a new and simple perspective to short-term trade stock selection. As you'll see, this book is based on the central idea that short-term trade stock selection procedures can be based on the same set of statistical methods now used routinely in business, engineering, medical research, and even in today's ubiquitous opinion poll analysis. In fact, it is just in aligning our technical analysis methods with these common statistical procedures that we tame the complexity of our technical analysis statistical tools, and thus our trading.
By reading this book, you'll learn about a small set of basic statistical tools that can be combined to form a simplified, yet profitable, short-term trading system. These are the statistical tools that I selected while designing, backtesting, and actively trading my own short-term trading system. I call this trading system MIDOS, which stands for Mechanical-In and Descretionary-Out System. In addition to a clear explanation of the MIDOS statistical tools, you'll find the conceptual framework of MIDOS fully explained in this book.

Basic Social Skills for Youth: A Handbook from Boys Town
ASIN: 1889322644 |
Book Description
Dealing with disruptive behaviors in the classroom can reduce the time a teacher has available for academic teaching. Teachers can help prevent problem behaviors by teaching social skills to students. When children practice and learn how to behave in the classroom, they contribute to creating an environment that's calm, quiet, and conducive to successful learning.
This book provides teachers with:
· Lesson plans with activities that can be adapted for students in grades K-12. The plans include suggestions for discussion, activities, journaling, role play, and reading.
· Reproducible skill pages that you can hand out or post in the classroom as reminders to students and coupons you can use to reward good behavior.
· Techniques for "blending" the teaching of social skills into academic lessons in reading, writing, math, and social studies.
· Ideas for using bulletin board displays and individual student graphs to motivate and monitor behavior.
· Strategies for increasing parent support.
Customer Reviews:
Don't bother with this book.......2006-12-29
I'm a graduate student (Ph.D. level program) and was looking for materials I could use for references in my school psychology class. I also have a child with delayed social skills, so I had a more personal interest in looking at this book.
I found this book to be of little use, professionally as well as personally. The research was sorely lacking, and the tips and suggestions were fairly rudimentary and geared toward lower elementary school youth.
There are far better products out there, so save your money. I sent this one back.
Customer Reviews:
Lots of good advice and skills to teach.......2005-02-24
I checked this book out of my son's school libruary in an effort to help him interface more successfully with his classmates. As an eight-year-old, he's just begining to learn how to deal with the many social/emotional issues that arise in the classroom and on the playground. McEwan's book gave me some excellent ideas on how to help my son improve the way he communicates with his peers. It's a good reference for helping my son solve social problems and improve his friendships.
Not helpful.......2001-06-19
I bought this booking looking for some tools that I could use to help my son with making friends. The bottom line of the book seems to be that the parents are modeling bad behaviour or your kid isn't really having problems. The book was not helpful.
Book Description
Albuquerque-based Antoine Predock is generally acknowledged as the premier architect practicing in the Southwest, although he also has projects in Denmark, France, Spain, and Morocco. He is known for a philosophical ethos that does not privilege architecture over environment, but fosters a relationship in which a building is analogous to the landscape in which it is set.Predock's use of such natural materials as adobe and sand-colored stone demonstrate an appreciation for local historical precedent as well as a concern for environmental soundness; however, he is in the vanguard in his use of the most technologically advanced methods of construction. Drawing from the pulse of the land, Predock's work embraces uniqueness of site, referencing local history, culture, myths, and people. This monograph features his latest work, including Highland Ponds, in Aspen; Austin City Hall, in Texas; the Tacoma Art Museum; and Shadow House, in Santa Fe, among others.Antoine Predock has taught at universities in Italy and Argentina, as well as at Harvard University, Southern California Institute of Architecture, and UCLA. He has won many awards for his work, including the Rome Prize of the American Academy in Rome, National Honor Awards from the American Institute of Architecture (AIA), and the Gran Premio Internacional de Arquitectura de Buenos Aires.
Customer Reviews:
excellent.......2007-05-31
this was an excellent read and an insightful look into the work of antoine predock. it was almost as good as the lecture by the architect himself
Book Description
Although Antoine Predock's practice is international, his roots are in the American southwest. His architecture draws from the elemental forces in any location, but in the desert it draws from the monolithic topography, expansive cerulean sky, and sparse geometric flora. Known for the way he incorporates references to the elemental forces--air, earth, fire, water--Predock's bold, fluid structures evoke the mythic nature that is rooted in regional culture and forms.
This is the first book to put together all of the extraordinary houses designed by Antoine Predock. Each of the twelve remarkable private houses featured here--ten from Texas, Arizona, and New Mexico, and two from California--harmoniously blend with their landscape in ways for which Predock is now so renowned. Characterized by environmentally conscious design, the houses display both exquisite refinement and an ingenious level of invention.
Customer Reviews:
spaceman predock.......2007-05-10
Predock is the George Jetson of our day. He ia a prime speciman of a spaceman. The man knows space. This is not so much a review of the product I received from Amazon as it is a prelude to a Predock. As you move yourself toward the crafting of your space and before your space craft blasts off, go for a test drive with Predock. He will put the rocket in your proverbial pocket. He will put the capital D on your dreamhouse. Predock is not the product but all props to Amazon for hooking me up with the man and his work. I am feeling deeply satisfied and inspired.
a stunning book.......2001-02-23
This is a beautifully produced book with wonderful photographs that capture the essence of Predock's work, the magical interplay of light and shadow. A characteristic of Predock residences is the interdigitation of the house and the land so that it appears as if the house almost grew out of and/or grew into the earth (pp.46-7, 82-3). The siting of the Boulder House (pp.46-7)against the majestic barren New Mexico environ is bold and assertive but at the same time is pitched in perfect harmony with its surroundings(pp.38-9). It embodies the primordial purpose of a domicile, a shelter from the harsh elements of nature and a haven where the inhabitant inside feels snug and protected. A unique feature of Predock's buildings is his almost metaphysical approach to design so that the structure seems to morph into a kind of mythic place, evocative of some distant place/ancient times/primordial culture. This is exemplified by the Fuller house as illustrated on pages 86-7. The Fuller house is classical without appearing derivative. It is timeless in its suggested monumentality. Predock's designs should withstand the vagaries of time. Though he is a gifted master of modernism, he is a universal architect of all times and all places because of his almost mystical reverence for the land and his profound appreciation of the "geological strata" of culture encoded in the place where his building is situated. Because he also understands stage craft from his background in dance performance, he is a clever stage master and understands the emotional impact of well choreographed presentations. (See the boulders spilling down to the pool on pages 100-1.) He is also a brilliant colorist, as exemplified by the elegantly tinted exteriors of his houses which blend in so seamlessly with the background landscape without the artifice of mimicking nature (pp. 86-7, 104-5, 120-1). This book does an admirable job of capturing these special attributes of Preodock's designs.
Book Description
Antoine Predock's trademark bold forms-often incorporating references to the natural elements as well as to myth and ritual-have made him an architect of international renown. This important new book follows the highly successful Antoine Predock, Architect Vol. I and documents his work from 1994 to the present, including the Mesa Public Library in Los Alamos, New Mexico; the Civic Arts Plaza in Thousand Oaks, California, and the Museum of Science and Industry in Tampa, Florida.
Customer Reviews:
Amazing and Inspiring.......2000-04-04
Predock is really a brialliant architect. The book also inspiring most in my design process. For student, you must have it, for your emergency.
5 Stars for Predock.......2000-03-30
In this book one will find dramatic buildings and spaces of amazing beauty and grace, especially nice are the many color photographs of the Spencer Theater for the Preforming Arts, and many other important projects as well. Accompanying the photos are wonderfully written, almost poetic texts describing the architect's philosophy and process. This book will not be put away and forgotten but read and viewed over and over. Predock's forms are elegantly simple, but rich in texture, color, material, detail and meaning.

I Need Something More Substantial.......2001-02-25
This book, from the outset looked like a scrap book. In fact, it contained drawings (sketches, probably a better word), clay models made by Antoine Predock during his many trips overseas over the years. It also contained sketches of architectural buildings designed by him. FYI, the sketches were more like outlines composed by a confident individual rather than technical drawings. Artists would relate more to those. Antoine wrote a brief introductory essay mentioning that it was essential to get both the feel of a place & what he had read about it before undergoing with the design. The end result, ie. the building would remain pertinent to its environment. Antoine is well known for his sensitivity & his inclination towards the spiritual aspect of the place & it showed tremendously in this scrap book. Antoine also stated that he had to sample collages of the place so that his colleagues would utilise them onwards for the design. I can't say I learn a lot about this great architect from this book but I suppose readers who are fond of him would find this book complementary to other architecture books about him.
