    • 1st Edition
    • Elizabeth Simpson + 2 more
    • English
    With an increasing focus on Simulation-Based Education (SBE) in health care, this new book is a step-by-step guide to becoming an effective SBE educator.Simulation-... Education: A Practical Approach for Health and Care Educators provides practical advice for undergraduate and postgraduate educators on how to plan and deliver SBE across a range of health and social care disciplines. It covers the planning, delivery and evaluation of SBE, hints and tips for success, and interactive immersive simulation in a variety of education settings.Written by SBE specialists from across the healthcare disciplines, the book uses a ‘workshop’ approach that encourages readers to evaluate their current practice and apply new knowledge to develop their strengths, making it invaluable for the entire SBE team.

  • Essential Minerals in Plant-Soil Systems

    Coordination, Signaling, and Interaction under Adverse Situations
    • 1st Edition
    • Azamal Husen
    • English
    Essential Minerals in Plant-Soil Systems: Coordination, Signaling, and Interaction under Adverse Situations is the first book to encompass these key aspects of plant science, biochemistry, soil science and fertilizer development in a single volume. Describing the micro- and macronutrients in the plant-soil system with the help of suitable illustrations, the book connects all the pieces enabling comprehensive and connected understanding. Sections cover recent advances in the understanding of how plants coordinate the acquisition, transport, signaling, and interaction, and cross-talks between macro‐ and micro-nutrients in adverse environmental situations.This book is a valuable reference for those putting research into practice in addressing stress situations, as well as providing important foundational insights for further research.

  • Care of People Living with HIV: Contemporary Issues, An Issue of Nursing Clinics

    • 1st Edition
    • Volume 59-2
    • Kara S McGee
    • English
    In this issue of Nursing Clinics, guest editor Kara S. McGee brings her considerable expertise to the topic of contemporary issues in the care of people living with HIV. The landscape of HIV prevention and treatment has evolved significantly over the past few decades, and HIV is now a chronic, manageable illness. Medical advances in the treatment of HIV have translated to normal life expectancy for people living with HIV who are on effective treatment, and innovations in HIV prevention approaches means that we have the tools to significantly reduce the number of new HIV infections in the United States.

  • Microplastics

    Transport, Impacts, Monitoring and Mitigation
    • 1st Edition
    • Natalie Welden
    • English
    Microplastics: Transport, Impacts, Monitoring and Mitigation provides a critical analysis of our current understanding of microplastic science, the methods by which microplastic are observed in the environment, and our options for mitigation and remediation. The book is intended for those studying or working in the fields of environmental science and waste management (as well as associated areas), and provides the holistic context needed to evaluate and interpret the outputs associated with the interlinked problems of plastic and microplastics.In this manner, the reader will be invited to explore the ongoing challenges which have thus far prevented the development of a thorough understanding of the risk posed by plastic and microplastic pollution to be able to discuss the implications of ongoing uncertainty to effective plastic management and evaluate the current strategies to control the ongoing proliferation of plastic pollution.

  • Metal Organic Frameworks

    Fundamentals to Advanced
    • 1st Edition
    • Bhawana Jain + 3 more
    • English
    Metal Organic Frameworks: Fundamentals to Advanced offers a substantial and complete treatment of published results. The book includes a summary of current research, along with an in- depth explanation of Metal organic frameworks (MOFs) and applications in this versatile area. Metal organic frameworks (MOFs) are structured frameworks made up of metal ions and organic molecules. These materials are similar to sponges and can absorb, retain and remove molecules from their pores. As a result, metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are the most rapidly evolving substances in chemistry with the highest surface areas due to their well-ordered pore structure.The exciting and vast surface area allows for more chemical reactions and molecule adsorption, hence this new resource provides the newest updates on the topics covered.

  • High Performance Plant Phenol-Based Polymers

    • 1st Edition
    • Samy Madbouly + 1 more
    • English
    High Performance Plant Phenol-Based Polymers brings together the latest advances in phenol-based polymers, composites, and nanocomposites, covering synthesis, preparation, characterization, processing, and applications.Bio-ren... plant phenols represent a diverse class of chemicals with great industrial significance due to their unique structures and high abundance. The depolymerization process of lignin into small bio-based phenols is a relatively new approach and has received considerable attention recently.This process produces key intermediates, phenolic compounds that can be used to develop and design a wide range of high-performance, bio-renewable, and multifunctional polymers and composites.This book will provide materials scientists and engineers with a useful framework to help take advantage of the latest research conducted in this rapidly advancing field, enabling them to develop and commercialize their own products quickly and more successfully. The book will be of practical interest to academic researchers, industrial scientists, engineers, and advanced students in the area of materials science and engineering, particularly those with an interest in high-performance bio-based polymers and composites.
