There are a number of diagrams throughout the book,illustrating the articulation of the sounds of English. The book also includes some information about General Phonology and the Phonology of English. A few sentences, dialogues and a popular tale have been given at the end of the book, both in orthography and in simple phonemic transcription. The book covers the Phonetics/Phonology syllabus of most Indian universities and ELT institutes

    This book covers all the important aspects of plant tissue culture viz. nutrition media, micropropagation, organ culture, cell suspension culture, haploid culture, protoplast isolation and fusion, secondary metabolite production, somaclonal variation and cryopreservation. For good understanding of recombinant DNA technology, chapters on genetic material, organization of DNA in the genome and basic techniques involved in recombinant DNA technology have been added. Different aspects on rDNA technology covered gene cloning, isolation of plant genes, transposons and gene tagging, in vitro mutagenesis, PCR, molecular markers and marker assisted selection, gene transfer methods, chloroplast and mitochondrion DNA transformation, genomics and bioinformatics. Genomics covers functional and structural genomics, proteomics, metabolomics, sequencing status of different organisms and DNA chip technology. Application of biotechnology has been discussed as transgenics in crop improvement and impact of recombinant DNA technology mainly in relation to biotech crops.

    Learners develop useful and relevant vocabulary while exploring and expanding critical thinking skills.

    This is a comprehensive book specifically aimed at undergraduate students of engineering and conforming to the syllabi of major institutes teaching this subject. Adopting a direct, functional and practical approach, the book presents an exhaustive treatment of the basics of technical communication, both oral and written. It covers contemporary topics such as technical proposals, research papers, technical theses, dissertations, and instruction manuals. Also included are recent developments in communication technology such as the use of the Internet and contemporary software. With its up-to-date coverage and practical orientation, the book would prove to be an extremely useful text for students, while also serving as a ready reference for day-to-day communication.

    'Pharmaceutics' in its broadest sense is the 'art of the apothecary' or, in simple terms, pharmaceutical preparations. It remains a diverse subject in the pharmacy curriculum, encompassing design of drugs, their manufacture, and the elimination of micro-organisms from the products. This books encompasses all those areas and pays particular attention to the design of dosage forms and their manufacture.A logical, comprehensive account of drug design and manufacture - in one bookIncludes important background information on the science of formulation and drug deliveryChapters on microbiology and sterilisation - as appropriate for this subject - have been retained, in recognition of their usefulness for students seeking the complete pictureHighly illustrated and clearly written at a level understandable to studentsReorganised, so that information on particle science and powder technology has been moved to the beginning of the book (part 2) and the information on manufacture of drugs has been combined with dosage form design.New chapters have been added on: Solid state properties of powders; Nasal delivery; Delivery of proteins/biotech products; Many chapters have been combined to make for easier understanding,

    Author Lauralee Sherwood has streamlined physiological study without dumbing it down by organizing the material around one central human process: homeostasis. In addition to the easy-to-understand text, Sherwood ties physiological study to real world scenarios in fields like pathophysiology and clinical physiology. Plus, it includes PhysioEdge, the most powerful CD-ROM you can get. PhysioEdge2 is packed with tutorials and fast access to answers. And Personal Tutor with SMARTHINKING (access to a live online human physiology tutor) and InfoTrac (an online university library that will save you a trek across campus), HUMAN PHYSIOLOGY: FROM CELLS TO SYSTEMS is the text you need to succeed in physiology class and get ready for health-related careers.

    Stressing the relationship between system software and the architecture of the machine it is designed to support, Beck first presents the fundamental concepts and basic design of each type of software in a machine-independent way. He then discusses both machine-dependent and independent extensions to the basic concepts, and gives examples of the actual system software. New FeaturesProvides updated architecture and software examples, including the Intel x86 family (Pentium, P6, etc.), IBM PowerPC, Sun SPARC, and Cray T3E. Includes an introduction to object-oriented programming and design, and illustrates these concepts of object-oriented languages, compilers, and operating systems. Brings the book up-to-speed with industry by including current operating systems topics, such as multiprocessor, distributed, and client/server systems. Contains a wide selection of examples and exercises, providing teaching support as well as flexibility, allowing you to concentrate on the software and architectures that you want to cover.

    A solid understanding of this subject is indeed critical to subsequent success in a science career. Stereochemistry is, therefore, a core constituent both at the undergraduate and postgraduate chemistry courses. This seventh edition is extensively revised and enlarged by adding new material to take account of recent developments and extensive amendments have been made to improve clarity. The key features of this new addition are: * A brand new design. Incorporation of basic principles in boxes directly links the students to the main text. * A large number of exercises with their solutions have been now added in each chapter. These exercises are set at appropriate places so that the students can test their command of a particular topic. * New problems have been added at the end of each chapter. * Chemical illustrations have been modified and developed for clarity and information. Generally the figures contain text as well, to decrease the need to refer back and forth to the text and for better understanding.
