This book is principally concerned with the relatively complex small molecules produced by plants, which are important as drugs, fine chemicals, fragrances, flavours and biologically-active dietary constituents. In a wide-ranging series of thematic essays, it covers key aspects of their role in plant ecology, their metabolism in the plant, their discovery, characterisation and use and their significance in the diet. Biotechnology, including prospects for the genetic engineering of metabolic pathways, for biotransformations and also for the production of biologically-active proteins, is the focus of the final section of the book. The overall aim of the volume is to provide, in each of the selected subject areas, a personal critique which is readily accessible to the advanced undergraduate student and to the non-specialist research worker alike.

This textbook provides a calculus-based introduction to economics. Students blessed with a working knowledge of the calculus will find that this text facilitates their study of the basic analytical framework of economics. The textbook examines a wide range of micro and macro topics, including prices and markets, equity versus efficiency, Rawls versus Bentham, accounting and the theory of the firm, optimal lot size and just in time, monopoly and competition, exchange rates and the balance of payments, inflation and unemployment, fiscal and monetary policy, IS-LM analysis, aggregate demand and supply, speculation and rational expectations, growth and development, exhaustible resources and over-fishing. While the content is similar to that of conventional introductory economics textbook, the assumption that the reader knows and enjoys the calculus distinguishes this book from the traditional text.

"These proceedings contain the lecture notes of the topics covered during the Summer School as well as the contributions from the Workshop. The first week saw discussions on the phenomenological aspects of particle physics, aspects of CP violation, the implications of precision electroweak experiments, new developments of perturbative QCD, physics beyond the standard model, and the implications of the minimal supersymmetric model and its string motivation. The second week of the School was dedicated to more formal aspects of particle physics including quantum groups and quantum spaces, calculations of loops and anomalies using supersymmetric path integrals, a new description of superstrings, integrable models and a review on the quantum mechanics of black holes."--Publisher's website.

This proceedings contains up-to-date reviews on heavy ion physics CP violation, effective lagrangians, experimental techniques, charm hadron production, the physics of electron-proton collisions, and Tevatron physics. A number of short seminars give an overview of the state of the art in particle physics reaching from experimental to phenomenological and theoretical physics.
