This monograph will give an overview of the global as well as Indian crops productivity in relation to the rise in the earth\u2019s surface temperature. A chapter in this monograph is on the technologies to study the response of crop plants to the elevated temperature. The impact assessment analysis of rising temperature on crops such as wheat, rice, maize, soybean, cotton and brassica are described, reviewed and discussed in separate chapters as case studies. The responses of physiological processes and biochemical reactions to the elevated temperature in crop plants are described crop wise. The monograph also includes the impact of elevating temperature on crop weed interaction, pest and diseases and soil dynamics for each crop species independently. The mitigation technologies to counter the adverse effect of high temperature stress are described for each crop according to their cultivation and climatic conditions. The future research strategies for each crop to meet the threat of elevating temperature on crop productivity and food security is described and discussed. The description of temperature enrichment technologies will help researchers and scientists to study the responses of biological materials to rising temperature. The monograph will be the main text for teaching climate change, global warming and environmental botany as no such book is currently available relating to the rising atmospheric temperature on crop plants. Therefore, the monograph will be highly useful for students of global climate change, environmental botany and agricultural sciences, scientists, researchers, farmers and policy makers","merchants_number":1,"ean":9789811020032,"category_id":103,"size":null,"min_price":71.5499999999999971578290569595992565155029296875,"low_price_merchant_id":1087639,"ID":4177136,"merchants":["dodax"],"brand":"undefined","slug":"crop-responses-to-global-warming","url":"\/unterhaltung\/produkt\/crop-responses-to-global-warming\/","low_price_merchant_name":null}

Ethnobotany for Beginners

CHAPTER 1: HISTORY AND CONCEPTSThe term ethnobotany was formally designated in 1885 by the American researcher John William Harsberger. In an article published in 1896 (entitled The purposes of ethno-botany), Harshberger considered that ethnobotany could help to elucidate the cultural position of the tribes that use plants for food, shelter or clothing, and such elucidation could clar...

In an article published in 1896 (entitled The purposes of ethno-botany), Harshberger considered that ethnobotany could help to elucidate the cultural position of the tribes that use plants for food, shelter or clothing, and such elucidation could clarify the problem of plant distribution in the past. Harshberger understood that it would be possible to understand an entire culture from the use of plants, idea rejected by many researchers since the relationship with the nature is only a part of the components of a complex cultural system. Today we understand that the use and knowledge of plants, as part of complex social-ecological systems, can help us to understand how we relate to nature and how this relationship evolves over time and space. In this chapter, as we briefly tell the story of ethnobotany, we also present some key concepts for a newcomer scholar in the field.CHAPTER 2: INTERESTS OF THE ETHNOBOTANICAL RESEARCHTraditionally, the ethnobotanists from around the world have been busy recording the plants and their uses (including therapeutic forms in the case of medicinal plants) by human populations. This type of procedure has provided enormous advances in basic, applied, phytochemical and pharmacological research since the ethnobotanists supplied raw material to the investigators from related fields and data required for the intended analysis. In practice, the study of the interrelationships between culture and plants basically has received this kind of treatment. But the scenario has changed completely and today we are interested in understanding various aspects of these relations. For example, what happens to the botanical knowledge of a cultural group when it migrates to other regions of your country or even to other countries? How does the knowledge of plant resources change in relation to socioeconomic variables (such as gender and age)? What can explain these variations? In this chapter, we present some of the approaches that have most occupied the ethnobotanists worldwide.CHAPTER 3: RESEARCH METHODSUnderstanding the relationships between people and plants is not an easy task, since many variables can interfere with this relationship. To account for this complexity, ethnobotany has been used in a variety of methods from different scientific disciplines such as anthropology, botany, ecology and economy. It is the experience of many researchers who have favored the use of methods from other disciplines, considering that the definition of the methods of any science depends on theoretical concepts defined by it, as well as realized research goals. In this chapter we discuss quickly those methods and emphasize the importance of developing well-defined and relevant research questions.CHAPTER 4: CLASSICAL APPROACHESEthnobotany is an interdisciplinary science. Throughout its development, there were different approaches that made the connection of ethnobotany with other scientific disciplines. Our goal in this chapter is to present the classical approaches of the area, such as folk taxonomy studies. Although we indicated that the approaches presented herein are classic, it is important to make clear that they are not temporally delimited (or with a marked end), that is, they can be still found in recent studies.\u00a0CHAPTER 5: CURRENT TRENDS IN RESEARCH ON ETHNOBOTANYCurrently, what have the ethnobotanists thought about ethnobotany? More than 100 years of formal definition of this area of knowledge, it is possible to imagine that some things have changed in this trajectory. So in this chapter we will seek to address some of the current reflections on the path that ethnobotany has traveled, or which still have to go, to strengthening their identity as science. Of course, such thoughts do not match necessarily a consensus among all ethnobotanists, but emerge from concerns presented by some research groups. We will address the ethnical and scientific challenges for a science engaged in social demands.\u00a0CHAPTER 6: ETHNOBOTANY, SCIENCE AND SOCIETYWithin the dynamic developed by the relationships people\/plants and the multitude of issues and interactive levels that surround it, this forms a complex ethnical, social, philosophical, ideological, biological and practical set of implications that ensure the ethnobotany as a science that aims to the human progress. Thus, the results of an ethnobotanical research can\/should return, in an elaborate and systematic way, to the social environment from which the information was collected. In this chapter, we discuss these complex interactions.\u00a0COMMENTED LITERATURE AND ONLINE RESOURCESSelection of references ad online materials (videos, websites, etc.) with comments and a brief summary to guide the newcomer reader in the area.","merchants_number":2,"ean":9783319528717,"category_id":103,"size":null,"min_price":64.900000000000005684341886080801486968994140625,"low_price_merchant_id":70255345,"ID":4097735,"merchants":["euniverse","weltbild"],"brand":"undefined","slug":"ethnobotany-for-beginners","url":"\/unterhaltung\/produkt\/ethnobotany-for-beginners\/","low_price_merchant_name":"eUniverse"}

In collusion they achieved a price increase of over 40%.Interestingly, this was the second highest price increase and has been proven to be corrupted while the number one good (onions) seems not to have been discovered or researched. In this case, measuring corruption would be either an estimation based on statistics (similar to a statistic correlated to drug use of professional athletes) or an investigation where in- and outputs have to be recalculated which is a difficult and, depending on the scale and frequency, very costly method.Summarized, it can be said that statistical data indicates possible corruption and with sufficient data, may even define a more refined area of corruption.2.3, Area of Impact:The effects of corruption are wide spread in the energy sector due to various factors. Not only is this sector (disputable) the most important economic base factor but also paradoxically a technology based technology enabler .Therefore irregularities produce technology setbacks (decrease of research speed), a reduction of businesses growth (California case closure), carbon footprint (comparable to future costs that are shared globally) and also global turbulences of financial markets.As there are numerous scientific specializations of economics (for instance lean management, sustainability, cost-benefit analysis etc.) corruption itself is not in-between.Because it is mostly hidden and not\/or difficult to measure, depict and express even if there is a hub of research for corruption (transparency.org) a specialization has not been established in the studies of economics resulting in a lack of research compared to other topics.Inevitably, the area of effect is indirectly noticeable in every technologically driven village, city or society as there are no substitutes for energy (compared to food). As a matter of fact, the area of impact is global.3., Role of Regulation and its Methods:The most prominent factor of the theory of regulation is the choice and adaptation of a suitable method. While each of these methods have their strengths and weaknesses their correct and persistent implementation is the key to success in creating the most beneficial outcome for the social welfare.This however will be just a short review of some of the methods as the more problematic part of corruption is the environment, the circumstances, the risks and the opportunities of regulation methods. Often the strict observance of efficient methods is already the first obstacle and\/or collapse of the system.When a firm naturally aims for profit maximization a control board has to be set against an unfavorable position of the consumers\/ society. The task of setting an optimal regulation which leaves the financial capabilities and flexibility intact, while at the same time ensuring quality and a fair price, is comparable to Sisyphos, due its nature of the persistent struggle of enforcing a continuous work.3.1, Rate of Return Regulation ROR:This type of regulation focuses on maintaining the characteristics and especially the advantages of a competitive market in a monopolistic one. The goal is that firms are allowed to make profits, but only up to a certain rate.They can manage their input into the co","merchants_number":2,"ean":9783954891924,"category_id":103,"size":null,"min_price":44.89999999999999857891452847979962825775146484375,"low_price_merchant_id":70255345,"ID":5469890,"merchants":["euniverse","weltbild"],"brand":"undefined","slug":"corruption-in-the-energy-sector-the-dangers-of-bcef-bribery-crime-exploitation-fraud","url":"\/unterhaltung\/produkt\/corruption-in-the-energy-sector-the-dangers-of-bcef-bribery-crime-exploitation-fraud\/","low_price_merchant_name":"eUniverse"}

The term complexity can be misleading, however, because what makes West s discoveries so beautiful is that he has found an underlying simplicity that unites the seemingly complex and diverse phenomena of living systems, including our bodies, our cities and our businesses. Fascinated by aging and mortality, West applied the rigor of a physicist to the biological question of why we live as long as we do and no longer. The result was astonishing, and changed science: West found that despite the riotous diversity in mammals, they are all, to a large degree, scaled versions of each other. If you know the size of a mammal, you can use scaling laws to learn everything from how much food it eats per day, what its heart-rate is, how long it will take to mature, its lifespan, and so on. Furthermore, the efficiency of the mammal s circulatory systems scales up precisely based on weight: if you compare a mouse, a human and an elephant on a logarithmic graph, you find with every doubling of average weight, a species gets 25% more efficient and lives 25% longer. Fundamentally, he has proven, the issue has to do with the fractal geometry of the networks that supply energy and remove waste from the organism s body. West s work has been game-changing for biologists, but then he made the even bolder move of exploring his work s applicability. Cities, too, are constellations of networks and laws of scalability relate with eerie precision to them. Recently, West has applied his revolutionary work to the business world. This investigation has led to powerful insights into why some companies thrive while others fail. The implications of these discoveries are far-reaching, and are just beginning to be explored. Scale is a thrilling scientific adventure story about the elemental natural laws that bind us together in simple but profound ways. Through the brilliant mind of Geoffrey West, we can envision how cities, companies and biological life alike are dancing to the same simple, powerful tune.","merchants_number":2,"ean":9780143110903,"category_id":103,"size":null,"min_price":23.39999999999999857891452847979962825775146484375,"low_price_merchant_id":70254503,"ID":4847995,"merchants":["orell-fuessli","weltbild"],"brand":"undefined","slug":"scale","url":"\/unterhaltung\/produkt\/scale\/","low_price_merchant_name":"Orell F\u00fcssli"}

But when it comes to the inescapable realities of aging and death, what medicine can do often runs counter to what it should. Through eye-opening research and gripping stories of his own patients and family, Gawande reveals the suffering this dynamic has produced. Nursing homes, devoted above all to safety, battle with residents over the food they are allowed to eat and the choices they are allowed to make. Doctors, uncomfortable discussing patients' anxieties about death, fall back on false hopes and treatments that are actually shortening lives instead of improving them. In his bestselling books, Atul Gawande, a practicing surgeon, has fearlessly revealed the struggles of his profession. Here he examines its ultimate limitations and failures-in his own practices as well as others'-as life draws to a close. Riveting, honest, and humane, Being Mortal shows how the ultimate goal is not a good death but a good life-all the way to the very end.","merchants_number":2,"ean":9781250076229,"category_id":103,"size":null,"min_price":21.25,"low_price_merchant_id":70255345,"ID":4847804,"merchants":["euniverse","orell-fuessli"],"brand":"undefined","slug":"being-mortal","url":"\/unterhaltung\/produkt\/being-mortal\/","low_price_merchant_name":"eUniverse"}

Boston Globe\u00a0 Pollan keeps you turning the pages . . . cleareyed and assured. New York Times Michael Pollan s How to Change Your Mind: The New Science of Psychedelics changed my mind, or at least some of the ideas held in my mind. . . . Whatever one may think of psychedelics, the book reminds us that the mind is the greatest mystery in the universe, that this mystery is always right here, and that we usually dedicate far too little time and energy to exploring it. Yuval Noah Harari, author of Sapiens and 21 Lessons for the 21st Century A deep dive into the history of psychedelics . . . . Deliciously trippy. NY Post Amid new scientific interest in the potential healing properties of psychedelic drugs, Pollan . . . sets about researching their history and giving them a (supervised!) try himself.\u00a0 He came away impressed by their promise in treating addiction and depression and with his mind expanded.\u00a0 Yours will be too. People Astounding. Andrew Sullivan,\u00a0New York Magazine Sweeping and often thrilling . . . . It is to Pollan s credit that, while he ranks among the best of science writers, he s willing, when necessary, to abandon that genre s fixation on materialist explanation as the only path to understanding. One of the book s important messages is that the therapeutic benefits of psychedelics, for the dying or seriously ill, can t be separated from the mystical experiences to which they give rise. The Guardian Makes a compelling case for the potential value of psychedelic experiences. Pittsburgh Post Gazette Journalist Michael Pollan explored psychoactive plants in The Botany of Desire\u00a0(2001). In this bold, intriguing study, he delves further Pollan even shakes the snow globe himself, chemically self-experimenting in the spirit of psychologist William James, who speculated about the wilder shores of consciousness more than a century ago. Nature, International Journal of Science Revelatory . . . Immensely fascinating . . . Pollan approaches his subject as a science writer and a skeptic endowed with equal parts rigorous critical thinking and openminded curiosity. Maria Popova, Brainpickings \"Pollan,\u00a0Cooked, 2013,\u00a0 has long enlightened and entertained readers with his superbly inquisitive and influential books about food. He now investigates a very different sort of comestible, psychedelics (from the Greek: mind manifesting ), and what they reveal about consciousness and the brain.\u00a0 Pollan s complexly elucidating and enthralling inquiry combines fascinating and significant history with daring and resonant reportage and memoir, and looks forward to a new open-mindedness toward psychedelics and the benefits of diverse forms of consciousness. Booklist (starred review) Pollan,\u00a0Cooked,\u00a0shifts his focus to other uses of plants in this brilliant history of psychedelics across cultures and generations, the neuroscience of its effects, the revival of research on its potential to heal mental illness and his own mind-changing trips . . . . This nuanced and sophisticated exploration, which asks big questions about meaning-making and spiritual experience, is thought-provoking and eminently readable. Publishers Weekly (starred review) \u00a0 A trip well worth taking, eye-opening and even mind-blowing. Kirkus (starred review) Known for his writing on plants and food, Michael Pollan . . . brings all the curiosity and skepticism for which he is well known to a decidedly different topic . . .\u00a0How to Change Your Mind beautifully updates and synthesizes the science of psychedelics, with a highly personalized touch. Science Magazine I've never regretted my adolescent use of LSD, but reading this\u00a0fascinating, lucid, wise and hopeful book did make me wonder if those drug experiences weren't another example of youth wasted on the young. Michael Pollan, who waited until he was a grownup to experiment, is the perfect guide to today s dawning psychedelic renaissance. \u00a0 Kurt Andersen, author of Fantasyland \u00a0 Michael Pollan masterfully guides us through the highs, lows, and highs again of psychedelic drugs. How to Change Your mind chronicles how it s been a longer and stranger trip than most any of us knew. \u00a0 Daniel Goleman, co-author Altered Traits: Science Reveals How Meditation Changes Your Mind, Brain and Body \u00a0 Very few writers, if any, have the gravitas and journalistic cred to tackle this explosive subject from both the outside and the inside extract it from its nationally traumatic and irrationally over reactive past, and bring both reason and revelatory insight to it. Michael Pollan has done just that. This is investigative journalism at its rigorous and compelling best and radically mind opening in so many ways just to read it. \u00a0 Jon Kabat-Zinn, founder of mindfulness-based stress reduction, and author of Full Catastrophe Living and Coming to Our Senses \u00a0 Michael Pollan assembles a great deal of information here on the history, science, and effects of psychedelics. I found his frank recounting of his recent experiences with LSD, psilocybin, and toad venom most revealing. They appear to have softened his materialistic views and opened him to the possibilities of higher consciousness. He did, indeed, change his mind. \u00a0 Andrew Weil, author of The Natural Mind and 8 Weeks to Optimum Health\"Do psychedelics open a door to a different reality, or is it just the same-old, same-old reality seen through a different set of lenses? I quickly became engrossed in Pollan s narrative the intersection of science, consciousness-enhancing, and government prohibition. But at the center of Pollan s story is the greatest conundrum of all why should substances that have been so beneficial to so many people, be the focus of crazy criminal penalties? Why, indeed. Errol Morris \u00a0 Michael Pollan has applied his brilliant mind and fastidious prose to the Mind itself, specifically the modes by which psychedelic substances temporarily obliterate the ego and engender deep spiritual connectedness to the universe. Michael walks the tight-rope between an objective reporter and a spiritual pilgrim seeking insight and sustenance from psychedelics, and his innocence and integrity serve as a balance bar between cynicism and partisan affirmation. His success here places these drugs and what they do at the center of a potential revolution in medicine. It s an extraordinary achievement, and no matter what you may think you know about psychedelics, if you even know the word, you should read this book. \u00a0 Peter Coyote, author and Zen Buddhist Priest \u00a0 After 50 years underground, psychedelics are back. We are incredibly fortunate to have Michael Pollan be our travel guide for their renaissance. With humility, humor, and deep humanity, he takes us through the history, the characters, and the science of these mind manifesting compounds. Along the way, he navigates the mysteries of consciousness, spirituality, and the mind. What he has done previously for gardeners and omnivores, Pollan does brilliantly here for all of us who wonder what it means to be fully human, or even what it means to be.\" Thomas R. Insel, MD, former director of National Institute of Mental Health and co-founder and president of Mindstrong Health A rare and utterly engrossing exposition that will most certainly delineate a fundamental change in the understanding of the human mind and the mystery of consciousness. Pollan previously reshaped our knowledge of earthly landscapes in his writings. With this book, he transforms our understanding of the innerscape, the unbounded world we occupy every conscious second of our life experienced by thoughts, suffering, awareness, joy, and reasoning. This is more than a book it is a treasure.\" Paul Hawken, author of Blessed Unrest","merchants_number":3,"ean":9781594204227,"category_id":103,"size":null,"min_price":32.75,"low_price_merchant_id":70255345,"ID":4927238,"merchants":["euniverse","orell-fuessli","weltbild"],"brand":"undefined","slug":"how-to-change-your-mind","url":"\/unterhaltung\/produkt\/how-to-change-your-mind\/","low_price_merchant_name":"eUniverse"}

But the aspiring shoe designer needs at least one roommate to manage it. She meets Abby Williams, a writer trying to make it on her own, far away from her successful family in L.A. Four years later, Morgan Shelby joins them. She?s ambitious, with a serious finance job on Wall Street. Then Sasha Hartman, a medical student whose identical twin sister is a headline-grabbing supermodel. And so the sprawling space, with its exposed brick and rich natural light, becomes a home to friends about to embark on new, exhilarating adventures. Frustrated by her ultra-conservative boss, Claire soon faces a career crisis as a designer. Abby is under the spell of an older man, an off-off-Broadway producer who exploits her and detours her from her true talent as a novelist, while destroying her self-confidence. Morgan is happily in love with a successful restaurateur who supplies her roommates with fine food. At her office, she begins to suspect something is off about her boss, a legendary investment manager whom she?s always admired. But does she even know him? And Sasha begins an all-work-no-play residency as an OB\/GYN, as her glamorous jet-set sister makes increasingly risky decisions. Their shared life in the apartment grounds them as they bring one another comfort and become a family of beloved friends.

These and many other voices give a rich, unsentimental picture of everyday life in the 1950s. We also encounter well-known figures on the way, such as Doris Lessing (joining and later leaving the Communist Party), John Arlott (sticking up on Any Questions? for the rights of homosexuals) and Tiger's Roy of the Rovers (making his goal-scoring debut for Melchester). All this is part of a colourful, unfolding tapestry, in which the great national events - the Tories returning to power, the death of George VI, the Coronation of Queen Elizabeth, the Suez Crisis - jostle alongside everything that gave Britain in the 1950s its distinctive flavour: Butlin's holiday camps, Kenwood food mixers, Hancock's Half-Hour, Ekco television sets, Davy Crockett, skiffle and teddy boys. Deeply researched, David Kynaston's Family Britain offers an unrivalled take on a largely cohesive, ordered, still very hierarchical society gratefully starting to move away from the painful hardships of the 1940s towards domestic ease and affluence.","merchants_number":1,"ean":9781408800836,"category_id":103,"size":null,"min_price":21.39999999999999857891452847979962825775146484375,"low_price_merchant_id":1087639,"ID":7229370,"merchants":["dodax"],"brand":"undefined","slug":"family-britain-1951-57","url":"\/unterhaltung\/produkt\/family-britain-1951-57\/","low_price_merchant_name":null}

New Jersey bounty hunter Stephanie Plum is certain of three truths: People don't just vanish into thin air. Never anger old people. And don't do what Tiki tells you to do. After a slow summer of chasing low-level skips for her cousin Vinnie's bail bonds agency, Stephanie Plum finally lands an assignment that could put her checkbook back in the black. Geoffrey Cubbin, facing trial for embezzling millions from Trenton's premier assisted-living facility, has mysteriously vanished from the hospital after an emergency appendectomy. Now it's on Stephanie to track him down. Unfortunately, Cubbin has disappeared without a trace, a witness, or his money-hungry wife. Rumors are stirring that he must have had help with the daring escape . . . or that maybe he never made it out of his room alive. Since the hospital staff's lips seem to be tighter than the security, and it's hard for Stephanie to blend in to assisted living, Stephanie's Grandma Mazur goes in undercover. But when a second felon goes missing from the same hospital, Stephanie is forced into working side by side with Trenton's hottest cop, Joe Morelli, in order to crack the case. The real problem is, no Cubbin also means no way to pay the rent. Desperate for money-or maybe just desperate-Stephanie accepts a secondary job guarding her secretive and mouthwatering mentor Ranger from a deadly Special Forces adversary. While Stephanie is notorious for finding trouble, she may have found a little more than she bargained for this time around. Then again-a little food poisoning, some threatening notes, and a bridesmaid's dress with an excess of taffeta never killed anyone . . . or did they? If Stephanie Plum wants to bring in a paycheck, she'll have to remember: No guts, no glory.","merchants_number":2,"ean":9780804191845,"category_id":103,"size":null,"min_price":31.39999999999999857891452847979962825775146484375,"low_price_merchant_id":1087639,"ID":5346320,"merchants":["dodax","orell-fuessli"],"brand":"undefined","slug":"notorious-nineteen-5-audio-cds","url":"\/unterhaltung\/produkt\/notorious-nineteen-5-audio-cds\/","low_price_merchant_name":null}

There is clearly something about the octopus's weird beauty that fires the imaginations of explorers, scientists, writers' Daily Mail In 2011 Sy Montgomery wrote a feature for Orion magazine entitled 'Deep Intellect' about her friendship with a sensitive, sweet-natured octopus named Athena and the grief she felt at her death. It went viral, indicating the widespread fascination with these mysterious, almost alien-like creatures. Since then, Sy has practised true immersion journalism, from New England aquarium tanks to the reefs of French Polynesia and the Gulf of Mexico, pursuing these wild, solitary shape-shifters. Octopuses have varied personalities and intelligence they show in myriad ways: endless trickery to escape enclosures and get food; jetting water playfully to bounce objects like balls; and evading caretakers by using a scoop net as a trampoline and running around the floor on eight arms. But with a beak like a parrot, venom like a snake, and a tongue covered with teeth, how can such a being know anything? And what sort of thoughts could it think? The intelligence of dogs, birds and chimpanzees was only recently accepted by scientists, who now are establishing the intelligence of the octopus, watching them solve problems and deciphering the meaning of their colour-changing camouflage techniques. Montgomery chronicles this growing appreciation of the octopus, but also tells a love story. By turns funny, entertaining, touching and profound, The Soul of an Octopus reveals what octopuses can teach us about consciousness and the meeting of two very different minds.","merchants_number":2,"ean":9781471146756,"category_id":103,"size":null,"min_price":20.85000000000000142108547152020037174224853515625,"low_price_merchant_id":27291482,"ID":5349041,"merchants":["weltbild","orell-fuessli"],"brand":"undefined","slug":"the-soul-of-an-octopus","url":"\/unterhaltung\/produkt\/the-soul-of-an-octopus\/","low_price_merchant_name":"Weltbild"}

The importance of the subject can be judged in light of the fact that India is the largest user of groundwater both for irrigation and for drinking purposes, pumping twice as much as the United States and six times as much as Europe.Despite water\u2019s vital role in ensuring economic security for the nation and farmers alike by supporting more than 70% of food production, water resource economists are yet to impress upon farmers and policymakers the true value of water and the urgent need for its sustainable extraction, recharge and use. In an endeavor to promote more awareness, the book further delineates the roles of the demand side and supply side in the economics of irrigation, and explains how the cost of water varies with the efforts to recharge it, crop patterns, degrees of initial and premature well failure and degrees of externalities. It also discusses the importance of micro-irrigation in the economics of saving water for irrigation, estimating the marginal productivity of water and how it improves with drip irrigation, the economics of water sharing and water markets, optimal control theory in sustainable extraction of water, payment of ecosystem services for water and how India can effectively recover.In closing, the book highlights the role of socioeconomic and hydrogeological factors in the economics of irrigation, which vary considerably across hard rock areas and the resulting limitations on generalizing.","merchants_number":1,"ean":9788132224785,"category_id":103,"size":null,"min_price":67.0499999999999971578290569595992565155029296875,"low_price_merchant_id":1087639,"ID":4178120,"merchants":["dodax"],"brand":"undefined","slug":"water-resource-economics","url":"\/unterhaltung\/produkt\/water-resource-economics\/","low_price_merchant_name":null}

That's what supermodel Ashley Graham does?she tears down the walls that have always existed around curvy women in fashion, showing the world that when it comes to beauty, size is just a number. In the process, she has become a voice for all who don't fit the old standards of the feminine ideal and a leader in an industry that felt out of step with a majority of real women.In A New Model, Ashley shares the story of her life and career: from the mall in Nebraska where she was discovered, to her move to New York City as a na\u00efve teenager, to her years as a strictly catalog model whom her agents relied on for revenue but never sent out for runway jobs, and to her decision to break out of the shadows and fight against those who told her she'd never grace a magazine cover. Learn how Ashley has struggled with and been supported by her family; how her husband, Justin, came into her life at a time when she was closed off to love; how she has coped with her issues around food; how the fashion industry lacks understanding of the curvy body; and how faith in a higher power helped her find her center again. This is an honest, inspirational, and surprisingly relatable story of a supermodel, yes?but also of a woman who, like so many, has struggled with rejection, self-confidence, and self-image. Ashley is not afraid to show her real self to the world, on social media, in interviews, and now in the pages of A New Model. Through her actions and by telling her story, Ashley hopes to help every woman be her strongest, most confident, and most beautiful self.","merchants_number":1,"ean":9780062667946,"category_id":103,"size":null,"min_price":38.89999999999999857891452847979962825775146484375,"low_price_merchant_id":27291482,"ID":4914299,"merchants":["weltbild"],"brand":"undefined","slug":"isbn-a-new-model-hardcover-224seiten-buch","url":"\/unterhaltung\/produkt\/isbn-a-new-model-hardcover-224seiten-buch\/","low_price_merchant_name":"Weltbild"}
