Customer Reviews:
A MUST read if you are heading for the Cooks!.......2003-10-29
Unfortunately, we required hospital services (because of tainted food), and this book over simplifies issues of needed medical care. (Details that should be included in EVERY travel guide!)
Naturally, most prices quoted are actually higher, but that's just dealing with reality.
We observed "newbies" arriving without this book, and therefore, without a clue of where to go or what to do.
FOUR Stars because this book was so valuable, but as with most, there is room for improvement.

Dreaming of a Pacific Island..........2001-06-15
There doesn't seem to be a lot to do on these small islands other than biking, swimming, hiking, and eating, and this may be exactly what appeals to some. I wasn't convinced to go though, because I can do these same things more cheaply in lovely parts of Mexico; yet I would go if I could, if only to meet Florence (Johnnie) Frisbie, who I understand still lives there.

Pseudomonas: Volume 4: Molecular Biology of Emerging Issues
Manufacturer: Springer ProductGroup: Book Binding: Hardcover ASIN: 0387288341 |
Book Description
The first three volumes of the Pseudomonas series covered the biology of pseudomonads in a wide context, including the niches they inhabit, the taxonomic relations among members of this group, the molecular biology of gene expression in different niches and under different environmental conditions, the analysis of virulence traits in plants, animals and human pathogens as well as the determinants that make some strains useful for biotechnological applications and promotion of plant growth.
Pseudomonas volume 4 is intended to collect some of the most relevant new emerging issues in the field of Pseudomonas that were not assembled in the three previous volumes.
This fourth volume covers the following topics:
- Virulence and Pathogens
- Genomics and Proteomics
- Physiology, Metabolism and Biotechnology
Pseudomonas volume 4 will be of use to researchers working on these bacteria, particularly those studying virulence, genomics, physiology, biotechnology, etc. Advanced students in biology, medicine and agronomy will also find this volume a valuable reference during their studies.

Pseudomonas syringae and Related Pathogens: Biology and Genetics
Manufacturer: Springer ProductGroup: Book Binding: Hardcover ASIN: 1402012276 |
Book Description
This volume mainly reports on new and recent advances of different aspects of Pseudomonas syringae, a plant pathogenic bacterial species that includes a high number of pathogens of important crops, which is an important model organism in plant pathology. In addition also some fluorescent Pseudomonas spp., responsible for new and emerging diseases, as well as pathogens previously included in the above genus and now classified in the Genera Ralstonia, Acidovorax are considered.
Each chapter, cured by leading scientists in the field, reports recent knowledge on the ecology and epidemiology, molecular, physiological and biochemical aspects of pathogen-plant interactions, disease management and control, diagnosis and detection, and taxonomy of P. syringae.
This book is an important tool for graduate students, as well as research plant pathologists, plant bacteriologists, plant microbe molecular biologists and cell microbe biologists.

Bacterial Wilt: The Disease and Its Causative Agent, Pseudomonas solanacearum (Cabi Publishing)
Manufacturer: CABI ProductGroup: Book Binding: Hardcover ASIN: 085198875X |
Book Description
Bacterial wilt is an important disease that limits the production of many crop plants in the warm temperate, subtropical and tropical regions of the world. Few other plant diseases are comparable in terms of diversity of host range and wide geographic distribution, as well as of economic importance. Host plants include banana, eggplant, ginger, peanut, pepper, potato, tobacco and tomato. This book is the first to provide a general but comprehensive review of the disease and the bacterium that causes it. It considers topics ranging from taxonomy, phylogeny and genetics, to control strategies, and provides up-to-date information on recent advances derived from molecular biological approaches. The bacterium is also increasingly being used as a model system for the study of host-parasite interactions. Therefore the book represents a standard reference volume for both bacteriologists and plant pathologists.

God, Gulliver, and Genocide: Barbarism and the European Imagination, 1492-1945
Claude Rawson Manufacturer: Oxford University Press, USA ProductGroup: Book Binding: Hardcover Similar Items:
ASIN: 0198184255 |
Book Description
We are obsessed with 'barbarians'. They are the 'not us', who don't speak our language, or 'any language', whom we depise, fear, invade and kill; for whom we feel compassion, or admiration, and an intense sexual interest; whose innocence or vigour we aspire to, and who have an extraordinary influence on the comportment, and even modes of dress, of our civilised metropolitan lives; whom we often outdo in the barbarism we impute to them; and whose suspected resemblance to us haunts our introspections and imaginings. They come in two overlapping categories, ethnic others and home-grown pariahs: conquered infidels and savages, the Irish, the poor, the Jews. This book looks afresh at how we have confronted the idea of 'barbarism', in ourselves and others, from 1492 to 1945, through the voices of many writers, chiefly Montaigne, Swift and, to a lesser extent, Shaw.
