    From Project to Production discusses the plans and development of an engineering project in any industry which yields or uses engineering plant of any kind. The book defines the concept behind project engineering and it also describes the administrative procedure involved in the completion of a project. It provides guidelines in order to effectively evaluate and monitor the progress of a project. The text demonstrates the important role of an industrial designer. Topics such as machine element analysis and synthesis, circuit calculations, design and drafting are explained in detail. Types of method of scheduling such as the C.P.M (critical path method), M.O.S.T (management operation system), R.A.M.P.S (resource allocation and multi-project scheduling), and P.E.R.T (programme evaluation and review technique) are discussed and analyzed. A section of the book describes the characteristics of a good engineering design. It also provides some design techniques. The book will provide useful information to design engineer, draftsman, and students of engineering.

    Progress in Physiological Psychology, Volume 3 reviews major advances in the field of physiological psychology and includes neurological and physiological treatments of sleep, information storage, and hibernation. The mechanisms underlying sensorimotor integration during sleep are highlighted, along with central nervous control over the physiological regulation of hibernation. This volume is comprised of four chapters and begins with a discussion on changes in sensory and motor physiology that occur during sleep, with emphasis on postural reflexes and motor activity as well as transmission of somatic sensory volleys through spinal reflex pathways. It then looks at the role of neuronal membranes in the storage of information in the central nervous system, along with hibernation and its relationship to neurological mechanisms involved in temperature regulation and motivation. The final chapter focuses on the effects of removing striate cortex on residual vision in monkeys. This monograph will be of interest to neurophysiologists and psychologists.
