1 Overview; Statistical Inference, Samples, Populations, and the Role of Probability Beginning in the 1980s and continuing into the 21st century, an inordinate amount of attention has been focused on improvement of quality in American industry. Much has been said and written about the Japanese "industrial miracle," which began in the middle of the 20th century. The Japanese were able t…
The field of water and wastewater microbiology has advanced dramatically in recent years, spurred by growing awareness about health and environmental impacts. These advances have been thoroughly integrated into the Fourth Edition of Wastewater Microbiology, widely regarded as the field's definitive text reference. In this Fourth Edition, the book focuses more exclusively on issues particular to…
Regression analysis is a conceptually simple method for investigating relationships among variables. Carrying out a successful application of regression analysis, however, requires a balance of theoretical results, empirical rules, and subjective judgment. Regression Analysis by Example, Fifth Edition has been expanded and thoroughly updated to reflect recent advances in the field. The emphasis…
Microorganisms are defined as those organisms and acellular biological entities too small to be seen clearly by the unaided eve (figure 1.1). They are generally 1 millimeter or less in diam¬eter. Although small size is an important characteristic of mi¬crobes, it alone is not sufficient to define them. Some cellular microbes, such as bread molds and filamentous photosynthetic microbes, are ac…
Mathematics is widely used in business, finance, and the biological, social, and physical sciences, from developing efficient production schedules for a factory to mapping the human genome. Mathematics also plays a role in determining interest on a loan from a bank and the cancer risk from a pollutant, as well as in the study of falling objects.
Pengambilan sampel bukanlah hal yang mudah, karena hal itu dipengaruhi oleh banyak faktor. Untuk memperoleh sampel yang representatif diperlukan teknik yang tepat sehingga dapat menggeneralisasikan seluruh populasi. Komprehensif dan sistematis, itulah metode pengambilan sampel yang tersaji, sehingga buku ini dapat dijadikan pemandu untuk para peneliti ekologi, pemantauan kualitas lingkungan …
The accelerating pace of discovery makes the teaching of a imic scientific discipline, such as ecology, very challeng¬ing. The challenge to ecology instructors and their students : - made greater by the relevance of ecology to the pressing environmental problems that threaten ecological systems at every level. As we attempt to educate students to understand and design solutions to those proble…
The science of genetics is less than 150 years old, but its accomplishments within that short time have been aston¬ishing. Gregor Mendel first described genes as abstract units of inheritance in 1865; his work was ignored and then "rediscovered" in 1900. Thomas Hunt Morgan and his students provided experimental verification of the idea that genes reside within chromosomes during the years 1910…
The mission of Mader's text, Biology, has always been to give students an understanding of biological concepts and a working the scientific process. The concepts of biology and the methodology of science can be used to understand the particulars of new ideas or of a system, on any scale, from the cell to the biosphere. In the twenty-first century, students are being exposed, almost on a dai…
This book is a thorough revision of its earlier eighth edition, which was published in 2009. That edition has served, just as the earlier ones did, as a textbook for a one-term introductory course in the theory and application of functions of a complex variable. This new edition preserves the basic content and style of the earlier ones, the first two of which were written by the late Ruel V. Ch…
Sciences: An Integrated Approach, responds to the future needs of today's students. The integrated course encompasses physics, chemistry, astronomy, Earth sciences, and biology, and emphasizes general principles and their application to real-world situations. The Sixth Edition has been updated to provide the most current scientific coverage. Some of the changes are: 1. Chapter 3 Energy includ…
Buku ini merupakan buku ajar yang materinya sudah tersusun sesuai dengan kompetensi. Berbeda dengan kebiasaan umumnya, kegiatan praktikum biasanya dijadwalkan terpisah dari kegiatan tatap muka ketika membahas teori. Namun dalam buku ini kegiatan praktikum merupakan kegiatan yang menyatu dengan kegiatan tatap muka, karena kegiatan praktikum merupakan bagian enhance the environment dari kegia…
At the time I began college, biology would have been at the bottom of a list of potential majors. I enrolled in a physical an¬thropology course to fulfill the life science requirement by the easiest possible route. During that course, I learned for the first time about chromosomes, mitosis, and genetic recombi¬nation, and I became fascinated by the intricate activities that could take place i…
Integrated Principles of Zoology continues to be the leading text for the introductory zoology course. With the sixteenth edition, the authors bring a wealth of real experience as they describe the diversity of animal life and the fascinating adaptations that enable animals to inhabit so many ecological niches. The overall organization of this text has proven to work well to help students un…
One of my most exciting educational experiences was my introductory molecular biology course in graduate school. My professor used no textbook, but assigned us readings directly from the scientific literature. It was challenging, but I found it immensely satisfying to meet the challenge and understand, not only the conclusions, but how the evidence supported those conclusions. When I started t…
If you are a student coming to the study of vertebrates for the first time, several introductory remarks may be helpful, especially on how this textbook will support your work. First, the discipline of vertebrate biology is diverse and inclusive. It brings together themes from molecular biology, genes and genomes, evolution and embryology, biomechanics and experimental physiology, and it incorp…
