Margaret Barnes - Böcker

Interest in oceanography and marine biology and its relevance to global environmental issues continues to increase, creating a demand for authoritative reviews that summarize recent research. Oceanography and Marine Biology: An Annual Review has catered to this demand since its foundation, by the late Harold Barnes, more than 40 years ago. It is an annual consideration of basic areas of marine research; it returns to certain topics when appropriate in future volumes and adds new topics as they arise. The favorable reception accorded to all the volumes shows that the series is fulfilling a very real need: both reviews and sales have been gratifying. The 40th volume follows closely the objectives and style of the earlier volumes, continuing to regard the marine sciences-in all their various aspects-as a unit. This edition adds commentary on the World Ocean Circulation Experiment, deep-sea species and other topics. Experts treat the physical, chemical and biological aspects of marine science. The series is an essential reference text for researchers and students in all fields of marine science and related subjects, and it finds a place in the libraries of marine stations and institutes as well as universities. It consistently ranks among the highest in the marine biology category of the citation indices compiled by the Institute for Scientific Information.

A fresh new edition, focusing on the importance of collaboration between healthcare professionals and the community.

The second edition of Child, Youth and Family Health builds its focus on the importance of a collaborative partnership between healthcare professionals and members of the community. This approach is vital in supporting, maintaining and strengthening individual and community health across a range of contexts and life stages.

Child, Youth and Family Health 2e begins by discussing issues and challenges in child, youth and family health, before addressing contexts for nursing and midwifery, all of which helps readers apply theory to practice.

This community healthcare textbook offers additional insight into the importance of the healthcare professional's role when working with children, young people and their families, and looks at practical approaches such as program development, supporting family transitions and mental health promotion.

There are three new chapters: 'Communication with children, young people and families - a family strengths-based approach', 'Acute illness: Care for the child and their family' and 'Health promotion through early childhood' along with a range of clinical scenarios, research highlights, practice highlights and critical questions and reflections.

Written by authors who are nurses, midwives, early childhood educators and academics, along with a respected team of contributors and editors, Child, Youth and Family Health 2e provides an engaging perspectiveon the fundamental challenges and issues affecting the health and wellness of infants, children, young people and their families in Australia and New Zealand.

Oceanography and Marine Biology: an Annual Review considers basic areas of marine research, returning to them when appropriate in future volumes, and deals with subjects of special and topical importance in the field of marine biology. The thirty-sixth volume follows closely the objectives and style of the earlier well recieved volumes, continuing to regard marine sciences - with all their various aspects - as a unit. Physical, chemical and biological aspects of marine science are dealt with by experts actively engaged in their own field. The series is an essential reference text for research workers and students in all fields of marine science and related subjects, and is consistently among the highest ranking impact factors for the marine biology category of the citation indices compiled by the Institute for Scientific Education.
