The Junipers of the World contains a synthesis of data on evolution by examining: Geographic Variation: Pan-Arctic variation in Juniperus communis, etc. Speciation in sections of the genus: Species concepts, Speciation in Juniperus section Juniperus, etc. In addition, Keys to Juniperus are provided by region: Eastern Hemisphere, Europe (including Azores, Canary Islands, Asia Minor and Africa), Central Asia (Turkmenistan to western Himalayas), China, Far East (Japan, Korea, Sakhalin Island, Taiwan), Western Hemisphere, Continental North America, United States and Canada, Mexico and Guatemala, and the Caribbean. Also included are Species' Descriptions, Distribution Maps and Plant Photos, and chapters on Hybridization, Ecology, Cultivated Junipers, Commercial uses of leaf and wood oils of Juniperus, a Cross Indexed Synonymy of Juniperus, and Tables on the Leaf essential oils by species in sections. This book supplements the web site www.juniperus.org and the reader will find literature citations and a detailed discussion of data that is not present on the web site. The Junipers of the World is now the authoritative reference for Juniperus Prof.Adams has presented arguments for the recognition of species and varieties by showing the data analyses that led to taxonomic decisions. This is one of the few treatments that really integrates data and the reasoning behind taxonomic decisions. In addition, Prof. Adams is candid in admitting that the recognition of some taxa are not well supported and deserve additional study. An essential reference book that will be useful for herbaria, museums, wildlife biologists, Range scientist, foresters, ecologists and all who are involved in identification and study of Juniperus species.

The Boys of Adams' Battery G

The Civil War Through the Eyes of a Union Light Artillery Unit

By: Robert Grandchamp

Raised from Rhode Island farmers and millworkers in the autumn of 1861, the Union soldiers of Battery G fought in such bloody conflicts as Antietam, Chancellorsville, Gettysburg, Spotsylvania, and Cedar Creek. At the storming of Petersburg on April 2, 1865, seven cannoneers were awarded the Medal of Honor for heroism in the face of the enemy. This history captures the battlefield exploits of the "Boys of Hope" but also depicts camp life, emerging cannon technology, and the social events of the Civil War.

The Adams Spectral Sequence for Topological Modular Forms

By: Robert R. Bruner,John Rognes

The connective topological modular forms spectrum, tmf, is in a sense initial among elliptic spectra, and as such is an important link between the homotopy groups of spheres and modular forms. A primary goal of this volume is to give a complete account, with full proofs, of the homotopy of tmf and several tmf-module spectra by means of the classical Adams spectral sequence, thus verifying, correcting, and extending existing approaches. In the process, folklore results are made precise and generalized. Anderson and Brown-Comenetz duality, and the corresponding dualities in homotopy groups, are carefully proved. The volume also includes an account of the homotopy groups of spheres through degree 44, with complete proofs, except that the Adams conjecture is used without proof. Also presented are modern stable proofs of classical results which are hard to extract from the literature. Tools used in this book include a multiplicative spectral sequence generalizing a construction of Davis and Mahowald, and computer software which computes the cohomology of modules over the Steenrod algebra and products therein. Techniques from commutative algebra are used to make the calculation precise and finite. The H∞ ring structure of the sphere and of tmf are used to determine many differentials and relations.

Transfer of Learning

Cognition and Instruction

By: Robert E. Haskell

This text addresses the problem of how our past or current learning influences, is generalised and is applied or adapted to similar or new situations. It illustrates how transfer of learning can be promoted in the classroom and everyday life.

The Unstable Adams Spectral Sequence for Free Iterated Loop Spaces

By: Robert J. Wellington

The semi-stable homotopy groups of a topological space [italic]X are the unstable homotopy groups [lowercase Greek]Pi [subscript]*[capital Greek]Sigma[superscript]n[italic]X, [italic]n [greater than symbol] 0, of the suspensions of [italic]X. This monograph is concerned with computing these semi-stable homotopy groups using the unstable Adams spectral sequence for the free iterated loop spaces [capital Greek]Omega[superscript italic]n [capital Greek]Sigma[superscript italic]n [italic]X generated by [italic]X.

Current Therapy in Large Animal Theriogenology

By: Robert S. Youngquist,Walter R. Threlfall

An essential resource for both students and practitioners, this comprehensive text provides practical, up-to-date information about normal reproduction and reproductive disorders in horses, cattle, small ruminants, swine, llamas, and other livestock. Featuring contributions from experts in the field, each section is devoted to a different large animal species and begins with a review of the clinically relevant aspects of the reproductive anatomy and physiology of both males and females. Key topics include the evaluation of breeding soundness, pregnancy diagnosis, diagnosis and treatment of infertility, abortion, obstetrics, surgery of the reproductive tract, care of neonates, and the latest reproductive technology. - Includes coverage of all large animal species. - All sections provide a review of clinically pertinent reproductive physiology and anatomy of males and females of each species. - Complete coverage of the most current reproductive technology, including embryo transfer, estrous synchronization, and artificial insemination. - A new section on alternative farming that addresses reproduction in bison, elk, and deer. - New to the equine section: stallion management, infertility, and breeding soundness evaluation. - New to the bovine section: estrous cycle synchronization, reproductive biotechnology, ultrasonographic determination of fetal gender, heifer development, and diagnosis of abortion. - New to the porcine section: artificial insemination, boar/stud management, diseases of postpartum period, and infectious disease control. - New to the llama section: infectious disease and nutrition.
