Dr Batra describes at length a special aspect of homeopathy-personality types and telltale signs of tongues, faces and the like which form an important part of observation for homeopathic diagnosis. He also provides a brief history of homeopathy, clarifies some common myths and collates clinical research on homeopathic practices for most disorders. With this handbook he aims to spread the benefits of homeopathy-a safe and natural system of medicine-to as many people as possible.
We are all concerned about sexual harassment at workplace. The law on such a serious issue calls for a deeper understanding. More so, we need clarity about the procedure of conducting inquiry in cases of sexual harassment, so that guilty do not get away due to procedural infirmities. This book examines provisions of The Sexual Harassment of Women At Workplace (Prevention, Prohibition And Redressal) Act, 2013, and procedure for inquiry in the light of the case-laws, both Indian and foreign, service rules and the government instructions on the subject. It therefore fulfils a long-felt need. The book will be found useful by government officers, executives of the public sector undertakings, banks, autonomous bodies, as also the legal fraternity.
Preface Microbial biotechnology and food biotechnology are important disciplines of biotechnology. Microbes are known for their beneficial as well as harmful role in human life. In harmful aspect, microbes are known to spoil the food and causing diseases to humans. In beneficial, microbes play important role in various food developments. A large number of microbes based products and processes are part of continuously expanding food industry. Microbes are well known for their primary and secondary metabolites that have industrial importance particularly in food industry. This book has been designed and written for UG/PG students of Biotechnology, Microbiology, Food Science & Technology, Dairy Technology and related disciplines along with the students preparing for various competitive exams.

‘IAF Strikes @ 0328 hours’ is a comprehensive account of the events that unfolded that night. I want to express that whatever surfaced following the attacks in the Indian media is largely true. On the other hand, whatever surfaced in Pakistan is imaginative, at best. I want to congratulate Mr. Mukesh Kaushik and Mr. Sanjay Singh, for this book. Their efforts and attention to detail is highly commendable.—Air Marshal C. Hari KumarFormer Chief of Western Air Command
The book is designed to highlight the utility of supramolecular systems in diverse areas such as sensing of ionic and molecular analytes, aggregation, artificial molecular machines, biology, and medicine. The synthetic chemistry of a diverse set of supramolecules encompassing various supramolecular interactions involved in driving macrocyclic architectures is discussed. Attempts have been made to cover unique features of macrocycles viz. control over shape, size, and valency along with supramolecular interactions, which direct complex supramolecular systems. The book also provides a discussion on the similarity between macrocyclic host-guest systems and biomolecules, which lay the foundation of building modern artificial molecular motors and switches like protein machines for application in diverse areas. The authors hope that the book will appeal to a wider audience of students and researchers in academics and/or industries.
This book describes the dietary habits (such as use of probiotics, synbiotics, prebiotics and dietary fiber) that could modify and reduce the risk of developing colorectal cancer (CRC). The book will be of practical and scientific use to academicians, research scholars, students, health professionals, nutritionists, etc. and could support the cause of preventing CRC by adopting smarter food habits. CRC is the third leading cause of death, in terms of both incidence and mortality, among men and women. Excess consumption of red and processed meat, roasted coffee, etc. have shown an increase in CRC, indicating that compounds formed in food containing free amino acids and sugars interact at elevated temperatures to form mutagens or carcinogens. Standard treatment options for CRC include invasive surgery and chemotherapy or radiation. Several lifestyle and dietary factors could prevent this ailment. Probiotics, prebiotics and synbiotics that are found in functional foods, health supplements and nutraceuticals and short chain fatty acids that are formed in the colon as a result of microbial fermentation of undigested bioactive carbohydrates by Bifidobacterium and Lactobacillus inhibit colonic epithelial cells and minimize inflammation, thereby exhibiting immunomodulatory effects. This book tries to address the novel unexplored benefits and mechanism of action of these functional foods.

Its scale, flexibility, cost effectiveness, and fast turnaround are just a few reasons why crowdsourced testing has received so much attention lately. While there are a few online resources that explain what crowdsourced testing is all about, there's been a need for a book that covers best practices, case studies, and the future of this technique. Filling this need, Leveraging the Wisdom of the Crowd in Software Testing shows you how to leverage the wisdom of the crowd in your software testing process. Its comprehensive coverage includes the history of crowdsourcing and crowdsourced testing, implementation practices, and future trends. The book discusses best practices in implementation-explaining what, when, and how to crowdsource in a testing effort. It also includes case studies that illustrate how both product and service companies have successfully applied crowdsourcing in their testing programs. Explaining how to use the combined advantages of crowdsourcing and cloud computing for software testing, the book examines various engagement models in which you could implement crowdsourced testing. It addresses effective defect management in crowdsourced testing and considers both the business and engineering aspects of crowdsourced testing. The book explores the challenges, limitations, and situations when crowdsourced testing will not work and provides powerful best practices for mitigating the constraints and challenges, including how to build a crowdsourcing platform to test software products. Covering career opportunities for crowd testers, the book concludes by taking a look at the need to build a crowdsourced testing ecosystem, who the players of such an ecosystem would be, and who would need to champion such an effort.

This monograph presents a comprehensive study of portfolio optimization, an important area of quantitative finance. Considering that the information available in financial markets is incomplete and that the markets are affected by vagueness and ambiguity, the monograph deals with fuzzy portfolio optimization models. At first, the book makes the reader familiar with basic concepts, including the classical mean–variance portfolio analysis. Then, it introduces advanced optimization techniques and applies them for the development of various multi-criteria portfolio optimization models in an uncertain environment. The models are developed considering both the financial and non-financial criteria of investment decision making, and the inputs from the investment experts. The utility of these models in practice is then demonstrated using numerical illustrations based on real-world data, which were collected from one of the premier stock exchanges in India. The book addresses both academics and professionals pursuing advanced research and/or engaged in practical issues in the rapidly evolving field of portfolio optimization.
