Sommario/riassunto

This volume provides new insights into the nature of the Early Modern English discourse markers marry, well and why through the analysis of three corpora (A Corpus of English Dialogues, 1560-1760, the Parsed Corpus of Early English Correspondence, and the Penn-Helsinki Parsed Corpus of Early Modern English). By combining both quantitative and qualitative approaches in the study of pragmatic markers, innovative findings are reached about their distribution throughout the period 1500-1760, their attestation in different speech-related text types as well

Sommario/riassunto

"Fields of Revolution examines the second largest case of peasant land redistribution in Latin America and agrarian reform-arguably the most important policy to arise out of Bolivia's 1952 revolution. Competing understandings of agrarian reform shaped ideas of property, productivity, welfare, and justice. Peasants embraced the nationalist slogan of "land for those who work it" and rehabilitated national union structures. Indigenous communities proclaimed instead "land to its original owners" and sought to link the ruling party discourse on nationalism with their own long-standing demands for restitution. Landowners, for their part, embraced the principle of "land for those



who improve it" to protect at least portions of their former properties from expropriation. Carmen Soliz combines analysis of governmental policies and national discourse with everyday local actors' struggles and interactions with the state to draw out the deep connections between land and people as a material reality and as the object of political contention in the period surrounding the revolution."

Sommario/riassunto

Comprehensive resource on the anatomy and physiology systems of common domestic animals, with learning resources included throughout Anatomy and Physiology of Domestic Animals bridges the gap between theory and practice, emphasizing real-world applications. In this newly revised and updated Third Edition, each chapter includes a short section which emphasizes current animal management practices that take advantage of physiological principles discussed in that chapter to improve animal growth, development, or function. Instructors will gain access to a website with PowerPoint slides of all of the figures, tables, and illustrations used in the book, with one PowerPoint presentation for each chapter. A test bank of potential questions for each book chapter is featured, including short answer, matching, true and false, and discussion questions. Each chapter also includes a study guide located at the end of each chapter and an opening section that provides an outline and listing of key concepts that the reader should get from each chapter. Some of the key revisions to this Third Edition of Anatomy and Physiology of Domestic Animals include:  Genetic testing and modification of DNA to improve animal health or performance and the use of RNA to create vaccines The dynamic nature of skin, not just as physical protection, but also in its relevance in immunity The role of supportive non-neurons and proteins



in brain function New discoveries in hormone signaling and uses of hormone therapies in domestic animals Reproductive strategies to regulate estrus, breeding schemes, and sex of offspring  Anatomy and Physiology of Domestic Animals is an essential up-to-date reference for undergraduate students in animal science, dairy science, pre-veterinary medicine, veterinary technician training, and biology. The book is also relevant as reference/review text for graduate students in animal sciences and physiology.
