Sommario/riassunto

This book explains how water, electricity/power and roads are linked together within the general basket of development and how to obtain



the optimum use of resources. The emphasis, nowadays, is on multipurpose activities, optimum use of resources, environmental approach, minimum use of energy. This book tries to integrate all of these, by showing the links between the different components of infrastructure and trying to model them. A very good design may fail during the implementation or operation because of bad design, but also due to inadequate attention given to the human aspects required for its operation. This book is intended for graduates or practicing professionals who are involved in the general development planning of their country/region. It creates a general awareness about what is needed to communicate with other professionals in terms of their own fields and others.

Sommario/riassunto

No one can deny the fact that the cow is the primary dairy animal species to provide humans with nutritious dairy foods through its abundance of lacteal secretion. The goat or other minor dairy species will never be able to compete with the cow in terms of the volume of milk production. Yet, the contribution of milks from other secondary domesticated dairy species to the survival and well-being of mankind around the world is immense and invaluable. Testament to the importance of non-bovine milk is that more people drink the milk of goats than that of any other single species in the world. In
