Index
Now in an updated sixth edition, Forages: An Introduction To Grassland Agriculture is an exhaustive educational resource concerning the science of forages and grasslands, and using them in agriculture without destroying them. Collaboratively compiled and edited by Robert F. Barnes, C. Jerry Nelson, Michael Collins, and Kenneth J. Moore, Forages benefits from twenty-four contributors who combine their scientific perspectives in this informed and informative resource concerning nutrient management, grassland ecosystems, seed production, grazing management and much more. Forages is a welcome and highly recommended contribution to Agricultural Science reference collections and curriculum texts.
By Midwest Book Review
FORAGES answered all my questions and spurred on some new ones that will hopefully be answered in the next volume. FORAGES is actually a collection of loosely-related articles, all written by experts in their respective fields, with an emphasis on agriculture, that is, animals and crops that have a perceived monetary and nutritional value to H. sapiens. In reality, it teaches those things I thought were important but not included in introductory botany courses or physiology. Highly recommended... - lc

Author: Edward P. Sarafino
ISBN : 9780470129166
Buy New from $44.37
Edward P. Sarafino's Health Psychology: Biopsychosocial Interactions, 6e integrates research and theory from many disciplines-- such as, psychology, sociology, medicine, allied health, and health and physical education--to describe the interconnectedness between psychology and health. The psychological research cited in the text reflects an eclectic orientation and supports a variety of behavioral, physiological, cognitive, and social/personality viewpoints. Sarafino integrates a focus on lifespan development in health and illness throughout the text.

Emphasis is also placed on health and prevention while integrating gender, ethnic, and age differences and similarities. In addition, the book has an internationalized content, giving health information from 14 countries around the world.

Health Psychology: Biopsychosocial Interactions

This book is chock full of bad science, outdated references, and misleading statements. Its content might be appropriate for a consumer magazine, but not for a _good_ consumer magazine. I have to read it for a graduate (!) class, and my critical thinking skills are developing a bad case of learned helplessness. Two thumbs down.
By Free At Last
It is a small textbook and fairly simple to read. Its not filled with huge, complicated theories that can put you to sleep.

Sport and exercise physiologists are called upon to carry out physiological assessments that have proven validity and reliability, both in sport-specific and health-related contexts. A wide variety of test protocols have been developed and refined. This book is a comprehensive guide to these protocols and to the key issues relating to physiological testing.


Volume I covers sport-specific testing, and Volume II covers clinical and exercise specific testing.


With contributions from leading specialist sport, exercise and clincial physiologists, and covering a wide range of mainstream sports, special populations, and ethical, practical and methodological issues, these volumes represent an essential resource for sport-specific and clinical exercise testing in both research and applied settings.
