Queer Then and Now

From the reviews:“Exudativory, or exudate-feeding, is a dietary category that is remarkably prevalent among primates. … Morphologist Burrows (Duquesne) and primatologist Nash (Arizona State) have compiled 14 chapters by 29 contributors covering all aspects of exudativory, including nutrition, digestion, ecology, evolution, and morphology (skull, temporomandibular joint, teeth, hands, feet, nails, and tongue). … Summing Up: Recommended. Upper-division undergraduates through professionals in primatology, biological anthropology, and zoology.” (E. J. Sargis, Choice, Vol. 48 (6), February, 2011)“This book takes a broad perspective and reviews the state of the art of our knowledge on primate exudativory from different view-points. … the book will be of interest and appeal to primate ecologists and evolutionary biologists, and to anthropologists and mammalogists interested in feeding strategies and adaptations. I can highly recommend this book to everyone.” (Eckhard W. Heymann, Folia Primatologica, Vol. 82, 2011)“Book edited by Anne M. Burrows and Lean T. Nash … is based on a symposium held at the 22nd Congress of the International Primatological Society in Edinburg in 2008. … the book certainly stimulates interesting thoughts and will inspire further in-depth studies on exudativory in primates and other taxa. I do recommend this … book for those interested in primate ecology, functional morphology, and evolution. It will certainly be the major reference on primate exudativory … .” (Melanie Dammhahn, International Journal of Primatology, Vol. 33, 2012)

From the reviews:“This book provides an in-depth analysis of a selection of topics that are important in the areas of character animation and game development. … book aims to provide a comprehensive treatment of theoretical concepts and associated methods related to the following areas: articulated character animation, curve and surface design, mesh processing and collision detection. … The book is presented in an accessible fashion full of images and examples. … The topics discussed in this book are commonly covered in graduate or advanced undergraduate graphics courses.” (Agnieszka Lisowska, Zentralblatt MATH, Vol. 1243, 2012)

From the reviews:“This multiauthored book describes management of common problems seen by acute care surgeons. … Critical care and surgical trainees, as well as seasoned practitioners, are an appropriate audience for this work … . This is a well-written tool for practitioners in acute care surgery. The major emphasis is on emergency general surgery, with relatively little information on organ system support and minimal discussion of trauma.” (David J. Dries, Doody’s Book Reviews, June, 2013)

"Popular mathematical expositions aim to render exciting, deep mathematics comprehensible to a wide audience (hard!). Since even professional mathematicians can expect to penetrate the technicalities of only a small fraction of mathematical breakthroughs, publications such as The Mathematical Intelligencer, the Bulletin of the American Mathematical Society, Sugaku, and LÉnseignement Mathmatique (Mathematique) address themselves to at least a wide audience of mathematicians. The Mathematical Intelligencer publishes stylish, well-illustrated articles, rich in ideas and usually short on proofs. The balance of topics reflects the broad spectrum of mathematical activity, and especially, great recent achievements (the Mordell conjecture, the Bieberbach conjecture, the Jones polynomial). Many, but not all articles fall within the reach of the advanced undergraduate mathematics major. For example, every student of advanced calculus should read Felipe Acker's essay on Stokes's theorem and the mean value theorem. This book makes a nice addition to any undergraduate mathematics collection that does not already sport back issues of The Mathematical Intelligencer. Upper-division undergraduates and up." D.V. Feldman, University of New Hampshire in  CHOICE Reviews, June 2001

"Jay Eungha Ryu’s The Public Budgeting and Finance Primer brings public finance down from abstract clouds by recognizing that behind any abstract formulation resides real people with differences in what they know and what they desire, and who must put together programs and practices that not only must be articulated theoretically but must also be managed and administered by actual people. Where modern public finance generally locates its material as a proper subset of economic theory, Ryu’s text locates public finance as a multi-disciplinary field of study, centered on economics to be sure, but&nbsp; touching as well, and significantly so, on politics, public administration, and law." --Richard E. Wagner, George Mason University, USA

From the reviews:“This is a very useful contribution both in summarizing the transitional justice experience in the Balkan region … and in highlighting the role that civil society can play in a transitional justice process. This collection would be useful not only for students and scholars of both transitional justice and Balkan politics but also for practitioners working in peace-building and conflict prevention. … this volume takes us one step closer to understanding both the contributions of and the limitations on civil society’s involvement in transitional justice.” (Julie Broome, Southeastern Europe, Vol. 37 (2), 2013)"I recommend this book to scholars unfamiliar with the processes of transitional justice in the Balkans. Even scholars and stakeholders who are already familiar with those processes in the Balkans will find some chapters enlightening because the book raises very important issues which need to be addressed by civil societies that are yet to deal with the past human rights violations. Further, the book highlights not only the need for different transitional justice mechanisms to be complementary (as it is brilliantly exemplified by Tamara Banjeglav in her case study about Croatia), but also for the government and non-government actors to work together. This volume significantly contributes to the existing transitional justice literature covering both ‘top-down’ and ‘bottom up’ processes of transitional justice and of civil society involvement in the Balkans."

In Podcasting in a Platform Age, John L. Sullivan unravels the captivating journey of podcasting, from its grassroots origins evolving into dynamics of media and cultural industries. With keen insights, Sullivan navigates the core of its evolution, unveiling the tension between preserving podcasting's open essence and the pull towards centralization driven by a platform-centered scenario. This book offers a concise yet enlightening exploration of podcasting's history, present, and future, revealing why podcasting becomes relevant in the current digital landscape.

"This volume contains nine articles on the recent growth and development of the Chinese economy. Editor
Grivoyannis (Yeshiva Univ.) provides an introductory chapter that offers historical context on China's economic
development and a concluding chapter on international implications of China's economic performance. All other
contributors, with the exception of one residing in South Korea, are from China. They provide many insights into the
transition economy based on firsthand experience. In addition to the more traditional topics such as the government's
role in the economy and land property rights, there are some interesting chapters not typically found in similar
volumes. For example, one chapter explores private finance, which has caused great publicity and social unrest in
recent years. Another chapter argues that the rising saving rate is partly attributed to dramatically higher education
costs, and one chapter is entirely devoted to mathematics education in China. Those interested in China's economy
and society will find this work of value. Summing Up: Recommended. All levels of students; faculty; researchers;
professionals." - CHOICE
