Now in its Fifth Edition, Functional Anatomy and Physiology of Domestic Animals provides a basic understanding of domestic animal anatomy and physiology, taking an interconnected approach to structure and function of the horse, dog, cat, cow, sheep, goat, pig, and chicken. Offers a readable introduction to basic knowledge in domestic animal anatomy and physiology Covers equine, canine, feline, bovine, ovine, ruminant, swine, and poultry anatomy and physiology Considers structure and function in relation to each other for a full understanding of the relationship between the two Provides pedagogical tools to promote learning, including chapter outlines, study questions, self-evaluation exercises, clinical correlates, key terms, suggested readings, and a robust art program Includes access to a companion website with video clips, review questions, and the figures from the book in PowerPoint

Cases in Leadership is a unique collection of 30 real-world leadership cases from Ivey Publishing plus fourteen practitioner readings from the Ivey Business Journal. The updated casebook helps business students gain a better understanding of leadership and enables them to be more effective leaders through their careers. The selected cases are about complex leadership issues that require the attention of the decision-maker in each case. Each of the casebooks comes equipped with instructor’s resources on CD-ROM. These affordable collections will not only help students connect to real-world situations, but will benefit corporations seeking continued education in the field as well.

The primary focus of this book is to determine if the Greek word for "worship" (proskuneo), used in John 4: 23-24, includes the concept of "bowing the knees" or "kneeling." In the New Testament, proskuneo is translated as "worship" sixty times. All of the "worship" events in the New Testament that included a form of bowing the knees or kneeling has been documented. This task was undertaken using five reliable sources of information or testimony: (1) the testimony of God, or Scripture (1Corinthians 2:1), (2) the testimony of Lexicons or Greek dictionaries, (3) the testimony of Bible translators, (4) the testimony of history, and (5) the testimony of Bible scholars. The book was written with all categories of readers in mind: worship leaders, clergy, college professors, Seminary students, Bible scholars, teachers, graduate school students, Pastors, lay people, seekers, and is suitable as a textbook in all Bible classes that include the subject of "worship".

Amajor contribution to the scholarly dialogue on Chaucer's art, this incisive and brilliant new reading of Troilus as both psychological realism and moral allegory seeks to reconcile conflicting approaches to the poem. Rowe's study of form and meaning finds that the concep­tion of the cosmic order depicted in the poem is primarily concordia discors and that Chaucer's poem is an imitation of the structure he saw in the universe, making it a harmony of contraries. Hence, Rowe argues, the poem is not simply the tragedy it purports to be but a divine comedy, an image of that love which insures that the tragedy of all that comes to be, only to pass away, is part of a larger divine comedy that returns all, in the end, to God.

This book surveys theoretical models in three broad areas of biology (the origin of life, the immune system, and memory in the brain), introducing mathematical and (mainly) computational models that have been used to construct simulations. Most current books on theoretical biology fall into one of two categories: (a) books that specialize in one area of biology and treat theoretical models in considerable depth; and (b) books that concentrate on purely mathematical models, with computers used only to find numerical solutions to differential equations, for example. Although some mathmatical models are considered in this book, the main emphasis is on stochastic computer modles of biological systems. Such techniques have a much greater potential for producting detailed, realistic models of individual systems, and are likely to be the preferred modelling methods of the future. By considering three different areas in biology, the book shows how several of these modelling techniques have been successfully applied in diverse areas. Put simply, this book is important becuase it shows how the power of modern computers is allowing researchers in theoretical biology to break free of the constraints on modelling that were imposed by the traditional differential equation approach. Anyone who is interested in the theoretical models of complicated living systems should have this in his or her library. G. B. Ermentrout, Bulletin of Mathematical Biology
