Home Life Through the Years: How Daily Life Has Changed in Living Memory

“This volume includes 22 articles organized into five parts describing: research aimed at locating examples of multicellularity in the Tree of Life; model multicellulars; different theoretical approaches to multicellularity; insights from comparative genomics; and insights from research into molecular mechanisms underlying multicellularity. … the collection provides a comprehensive explanation for why there are no simple answers to when multicellularity first appeared, how many times it appeared, or why and how.” (Ellen Clarke, The Quarterly Review of Biology, Vol. 91 (3), September, 2016)“The chapters effectively lead readers through the evidence for multicellularity in the ToL, discuss models systems in depth (especially algae and the choanoflagellates, the latter leading to animal multicellularity), present theoretical approaches, discuss insights from comparative genomic analyses, and summarize understanding of the molecular mechanisms involved. … The book is especially valuable for researchers in or planning to enter the field who seek integrative and novel systems and approaches. … Summing Up: Highly recommended. Graduate students, researchers/faculty, and professionals/practitioners.” (B. K. Hall, Choice, Vol. 53 (2), October, 2015)

"The volume is attractive, the editing perceptive and informative without being intrusive; the translation, an entirely appropriate and insightful compromise between the literary and the literal."

’This book will be of interest to anyone concerned with technological change and/or the impact of public policy on growth...In addition to its application to rate-of-return regulation, the reader will find this book suggestive for further research into the impact upon technological change of other forms of regulation.’ Professor Barry J. Seldon, University of Texas, USA  ’This book has provided a thorough overview and interesting extension of the impact of government regulation on innovativeness.’ Review of Industrial Organisation

’Practical Succession Management provides a realistic appraisal of the challenges Chairmen and CEOs face in securing the ongoing success of their business. It cannot and does not provide a universal solution - what it does do is provide significant help in identifying and implementing the strategies required to ensure the leadership pipeline is sufficiently strong and robust for when the need arises.'  - Philip Williamson, Chief Executive, Nationwide Building Society  'This is a well written book with many practical examples and case studies. It would be useful for any company wanting to implement succession planning.' - Personnel Today   'The presentation of the material is excellent.'  - Economic Outlook and Business Review   'At CEO and director level, this book is a mine of invaluable guidence. Additionally, for those in HRM with the responsibility for supporting the design and implementation of succession activity, the book will be invaluable, not least because  it incorporates a series of templates, protocols and checklists which can be adapted and customised according to the distinctive requirements of their organisation.' - Business Executive  'How refreshing-a book that takes seriously the issues of succession and does exactly what it sets out to do. It takes people issues seriously and contains an excellent blend of research, references and intelligent observation. it is an excellent guide and a comprehensive manual.' - Supply Management   'A great book packed with case studies and practical advice for CEOs, Board Members, HR directors and all who are interested in the acquisition, growth and retention of talent.  Andrew Munro presents some bold suggestions and challenges the reader to really think about the key outcomes being sought from succession management.  He offers some good suggestions to get you to reframe your thoughts and avoids 'spoon feeding' the reader which is always welcome!.'  - Duncan Armitage, Coach / Consultant  'An exce

From the reviews:“The book gives an overview of the most important Identity-Based Encryption (IBE) schemes. … For most of the considered IBE methods the authors provide also proofs of security reductions. The book has an extensive bibliography and can be used as an introduction to IBE in post-graduate courses.” (Jaak Henno, Zentralblatt MATH, Vol. 1218, 2011)“This book addresses a variety of approaches to identity-based encryption (IBE), along with their constructions and security aspects. … The book could also serve as a textbook for a course on IBE. For new researchers, the book is a good survey of IBE. Professionals who are trying to design an encryption solution will find it to be a good source on the underlying mathematics.” (Maulik A. Dave, ACM Computing Reviews, July, 2012)

“Mapping South American Latina/a Literature in the United States: Interviews with Contemporary Writers by Juanita Heredia is a welcome critical Intervention … .

’...an excellent and stimulating presentation of community law, with a well-structured and thought-provoking selection of cases and materials, as well as very perceptive and critical observations...ideal for students and those who use it should certainly acquire an excellent understanding of community law.’ Professor Laurence Gormley, Groningen University, The Netherlands  ’...carefully written and researched and should be very useful student texts...enormously detailed...a wealth of information and critical commentary...the footnote references are superbly detailed and an extraordinarily valuable resource.’ Yearbook of European Law  '...conveys a true understanding of its subject, rather than merely a knowledge of the rules that make it up.  As such it will be worth reading for many years to come.' International and Comparative Law Quarterly
