The immunology of mucosal surfaces is one of the most exciting and relevant areas of medical veterinary and dental research since it applies basic research to tissues in volved in everyday defence against microbes and against environmental and food antigens.

The book discusses some of the major grammatical constructions of Japanese in a version of phrase structure grammar called Japanese Phrase Structure Grammar (JPSG), which is loosely based on such frameworks for phrase structure grammar as Generalized Phrase Structure Grammar (GPSG) and Head-driven Phrase Structure Grammar (HPSG).

A number of major advances in our understanding of how physiological processes, and related behaviour patterns, are controlled and integrated in fish are presented in this book. The contributors are acknowledged experts from Europe and US.

The importance of oil in the world economy cannot be overstated, and methods for recovering oil will be the subject of much scientific and engineering research for many years to come.

Polymers are normally thought of as insulators. In the last few years, however, a rapidly advancing and changing field has developed which exploits the ability of certain polymers to conduct charge, in some cases electronically and in others by means of ions.

Even the most casual reader leafing through the pages of this book will quickly realize that it is not the thoughts of one indi vidual set down on paper, but rather the synergism of many people. Some years ago, the American Management Associations asked me to chair a series of seminars on Customer Service Management in the U.

This is the first publication to offer a comprehensive and balanced view of atmospheric acidity. The first part consists of reviews of sources of acidic compounds, the second part outlines the environmental consequences and the final part discusses the technological, legal and political aspects of control strategies.

An up to date comprehensive survey of the methods for manufacturing reinforced ceramic composites.

ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT SERIES The current expansion of both public and scientific interest in environ mental issues has not been accompanied by a commensurate production of adequate books, and those which are available are widely variable in approach and depth.

This book is a translation of an important Japanese work on electronic ceramics and includes much experimental data. It will be of great interest to ceramicists and electronic engineers working with ceramic materials interested in an overview of recent Japanese research in this rapidly developing field.

Silicon carbides have major industrial uses as high temperature structural ceramic materials. These two volumes are translated from the Japanese and provide a comprehensive account of the seminal work going on in Japan.

This text contains the proceedings of the "Workshop on The Transfer of Radionuclides in Natural and Semi-Natural Environments", held at the Villa Manin, Passariano (Udine), Italy, 11-15 September 1989.

Proceedings of a workshop on Composite Material Response: Constitutive Relations and Damage Mechanisms, held at the Stakis Grosvenor Hotel, Glasgow, UK, 30-31 July 1987

The book is also part of another series of reports, and is closely related to the Elsevier Book "Safety and Reliability of Programmable Electronic Systems" which I edited in 1986, and the series of workshops known as SAFECOMP held in 1979, 1982, 1983, 1985, 1986 which are referenced in some of the papers.

The book is written in a refreshingly direct manner, the discussion focuses on the kind of practical issues which are likely to concern working managers. The book is illustrated with a wealth of examples drawn from the author's own experience.

An introduction for advanced undergraduates and postgraduates in marine ecology, freshwater ecology, fish biology, fisheries ecology and aquaculture. It adopts a habitat-based approach, ranging from head waters to ocean depths, and from tropics to polar regions.
