CRISIS AND OPPORTUNITY: SUSTAINABILITY IN AMERICAN AGRICULTURE

The essays in this collection have been written over the span of more than a decade. The various topics were suggested by the people who organized the sustainable agriculture conferences where they were presented. The essays address some of the most important questions of the sustainable agriculture movement: why did it begin, what is it about, and how can it succeed?

POSTHARVEST HANDLING A SYSTEMS APPROACH

This book is a revised and expanded version of the book titled Postharvest Handling: A Systems Approach published in 1993. Following the publication of the first book, the application of systems thinking and a systems approach to postharvest handling of fruits and vegetables has generated enough interest to stimulate the emergence of a multidisciplinary group of scientists interested in the topic. The systems approach applied to the fresh fruit and vegetable supply chain treats it as a single entity focused on the delivery of quality desired by consumers. The entity consists of individual businesses that increase benefits because they share the same values and recognize the effects of cooperation for their individual trade reputation. Attributes such as trust and reputation improve the competitive position of the fresh fruit and vegetable industry relative to other segments of the food market.

MACROCYCLES: CONSTRUCTION, CHEMISTRY AND NANOTECHNOLOGY APPLICATIONS

Macrocyclic molecules contain rings made up of seven or more atoms. They provide building blocks for synthesizing precise two or three dimensional structures – an important goal in nanotechnology. For example, they can be used to develop nanosized reaction vessel, cages, switches and shuttles, and have potential as components in molecular computers as switches, nano-valves and logic gates. They also have applications as catalysts and sensors.

Macrocycles: Construction, Chemistry and Nanotechnology Applications is an essential introduction to this important class of molecules and describes how to synthesize them, their chemistry, how they can be used as nanotechnology building blocks, and their applications. A wide range of structures synthesized over the past few decades are covered, from the simpler cyclophanes and multi-ring aromatic structures to vases, bowls, cages and more complex multi-ring systems and 3D architectures such as “pumpkins”, interlocking chains and knots. Some of the molecular classes covered include simple ring compounds, three dimensional aliphatic carbon structures, annulenes, multi-ring aromatic structures, porphyrins and phthalocyanines, cyclophanes, crown ethers, cryptands, spherands, calixarenes, resorcinarenes, cavitands, carcerands, heterocalixarenes, calixnaphthalenes, cyclodextins, cyclotriveratylenes, cryptophanes, cucurbituris, rotaxanes and catenanes.

ECOLOGY AND CONTROL OF INTRODUCED PLANTS

This book focuses on introduced plant species: where they come from, their impacts on native vegetation and ecosystems and the potential for their control. Invasive plants are a cause of increasing concern, and a lot of effort has been put into removing and controlling unwanted organisms. This book is aimed at advanced students and land managers, with an interest in plant invaders, plant communitites, and biodiversity. It contains practical explanations, case studies and an introduction to basic techniques for evaluating the impacts of invasive plants.

BIOLOGY OF BRASSICA COENOSPECIES

Brassica crop species and their allies (Raphanus, Sinapis, Eruca, etc.) are important sources of edible roots, stems, leaves, buds and inflorescences, as well as of edible or industrial oils, condiments and forage. Many well known names of plants or plant products, such as kale, cabbage, brocolli, cauliflower, Brussels sprouts, kohl-rabi, Chinese cabbage, turnip, rape, rutabaga, swede, colza or rapeseed, canola, mustard, rocket, etc. are directly associated to this botanical group.

The scientific interest for this botanical group has run parallel to its economical importance, and research achievements in our days would have certainly appeared unimaginable only two decades ago. As the end of the millenium approaches, entirely new fields (transformation, somatic fusion, etc.) have been added to the classical ones. Thus, nobody can doubt the opportuneness of this book, which combines and presents both the basic and applied biological aspects of the Brassica species.

FISH OIL REPLACEMENT AND ALTERNATIVE LIPID SOURCES IN AQUACULTURE FEEDS

Within the space of just over 500 pages ... this book provides a comprehensive overview on the production and use of fish oils, vegetable oils, terrestrial animal fats, and several unconventional lipid sources in finfish aquaculture and the aquafeed industry. All chapters are tightly packed with factual information, and all are also extensively referenced, with quite a strong emphasis on recently published review articles, original papers, and reports.

... The overall structure of the book has been well thought out, and the chapters follow in a logical sequence, making it relatively easy for the reader to find a clear path to follow. ... Fish Oil Replacement and Alternative Lipid Sources in Aquaculture Feeds is a most useful compilation ... . The book presents key, up-to-date information about the importance of lipid nutrition in finfish aquaculture, and about the availability and use of oil sources in the production of aquafeeds. Its main advantage is that the information is collected in a single volume, so the book is likely to become a standard source of reference for fish nutritionists and other aquaculture professionals.
