Getting Agriculture Back on the Development Agenda; Endnotes; References; IndexThe majority of the world's poor depend directly or indirectly on agriculture. Despite the strong linkages between broad-based agricultural growth and poverty reduction, international support to agriculture sharply declined from the late 1980's. The need to raise agriculture's prominence in the development agenda has never been greater. This book seeks to articulate the World Bank's Rural Strategy on agriculture to the wider development community. It provides decision makers with the rationale for supporting agriculture by presenting the lessons learned on the policies, institutions, and priori...Directions in development (Washington, D.C.)World Bank e-Library.AgricultureEconomic aspectsDeveloping countriesAgriculture and stateDeveloping countriesAgricultural development projectsDeveloping countriesAgricultural assistanceDeveloping countriesPublic-private sector cooperationDeveloping countriesPovertyDeveloping countriesPoorDeveloping countriesAgricultureEconomic aspectsAgriculture and stateAgricultural development projectsAgricultural assistancePublic-private sector cooperationPovertyPoor338.1/09172/4World Bank.DLCDLCDLCBOOK9910783256303321Agricultural growth for the poor3821497UNINA03375nam 2200637Ia 450 991078288130332120230721005023.00-19-770042-X0-19-028778-01-281-98697-697866119869710-19-972229-3(CKB)1000000000718574(EBL)415125(OCoLC)317143641(SSID)ssj0000112179(PQKBManifestationID)11142631(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000112179(PQKBWorkID)10086159(PQKB)10807476(Au-PeEL)EBL415125(CaPaEBR)ebr10288422(CaONFJC)MIL198697(MiAaPQ)EBC415125(EXLCZ)99100000000071857420071005d2009 uy 0engur|n|---|||||txtccrBiomedical optical imaging[electronic resource] /edited by James G.

Revealing the Subtleties of Disease and the Nuances of the Therapeutic Response with Optical Reporter Genes; IndexBiomedical optical imaging is a rapidly emerging research area with widespread fundamental research and clinical applications. This book gives an overview of biomedical optical imaging with contributions from leading international research groups who have pioneered many of these techniques and applications. A unique research field spanning the microscopic to the macroscopic, biomedical optical imaging allows both structural and functional imaging. Techniques such as confocal and multiphoton microscopy provide cellular level resolution imaging in biological systems.
