The first edition described the concept of Integrated Waste Management (IWM), and the use of Life Cycle Inventory (LCI) to provide a way to assess the environmental and economic performance of solid waste systems. Actual examples of IWM systems and published accounts of LCI models for solid waste are now appearing in the literature. To draw out the lessons learned from these experiences a significant part of this 2nd edition focuses on case studies - both of IWM systems, and of where LCI has been used to assess such systems. The 2nd edition also includes updated chapters on waste generation, waste collection, central sorting, biological treatment, thermal treatment, landfill and materials recycling. This 2nd edition also provides a more user-friendly model (IWM-2) for waste managers. To make it more widely accessible, this edition provides the new tool in Windows format, with greatly improved input and output features, and the ability to compare different scenarios. A detailed user's guide is provided, to take the reader through the use of the IWM-2 model, step by step. IWM-2 is designed to be an "entry level" LCI model for solid waste - user-friendly and appropriate to users starting to apply life cycle thinking to waste systems - while more expert users will also find many of the advanced features of the IWM-2 model helpful. IWM-2 is delivered on CD inside the book.

Venti donne raccontano come hanno migliorato la propria vita partendo da un gesto di fiducia, un libro nel quale ogni donna potrà riconoscersi. Le storie contenute in questo libro sono racconti di donne comuni, signore coraggiose che hanno preso in mano la propria vita dando fiducia al prossimo e riscoprendola contemporaneamente in se stesse. Un volume tutto al femminile in un contenitore freezer Tupperware, un regalo originale che farà felici molte donne. Il volume nasce all'interno del progetto Tupperware Chain Of Confidence che evidenzia il profondo impatto che ciascuna donna può avere sulla vita di altre. I cambiamenti di cui le donne parlano sono i più svariati: caratteriali, nei rapporti con il prossimo, economici. Sarà facile quindi per le lettrici riconoscersi e farsi ispirare affinché la catena di fiducia non si spezzi. Ogni storia inoltre è illustrata da foto realizzate ad hoc di scene rubate alla vita quotidiana di queste donne. Una parte del ricavato delle vendite sarà devoluto all'Associazione Telefono Rosa che aiuterà donne alle quali la vita ha riservato incontri spiacevoli.
