STEM is an education field and curriculum that focuses heavily on the disciplines of science, technology, engineering and mathematics. STEM schools and programs approach these major academic disciplines in an integrated manner so that elements of each subject can be applied to the others. The STEM-focused learning programs span from preschool through master's degree programs, depending on the resources within a given school district or region. STEM is a growing field of education worldwide. The purpose of STEM-based learning programs is to increase the interest of students to pursue higher education and careers in those areas. STEM education typically uses a new model of blended learning that combines traditional classroom teaching with online learning and hands-on activities. The aim of this model is to give students the opportunity to experience different ways of learning and problem-solving. This book is compiled in such a manner, that it will provide in-depth knowledge about the theory and practice of STEM education. It discusses the fundamentals as well as modern approaches of this discipline. This book will provide comprehensive knowledge to the readers.

My book is forty years in the making. If you like sex, drugs, and rock and roll, this book is for you. I hope this will bring back happy memories of the 70s, 80s, 90s, and 2000s. I put you and my head as I reflect back to the party days. You will meet famous people like Ted Turner; Jane Fonda; Chris Evert; Ernie D.; Dennis Conner; Governor Carey of New York; and Angus King, the governor of Maine to name a few as Gerry Garcia sang. What a strange trip its been.

Michael Murphy's second volume of reflections deals with the fact that 'life goes on' and details the progression of those we met in the first book, including himself. His writing is powerful and engaging and takes an unflinching look at difficult subjects, particularly the lingering and distressing physical effects that prostate cancer had on his body, and the confusion of guilt and pain accompanying his decision to place his mother into a nursing home. The book touches on many important people in Murphy's life and compassionately and courageously discusses the passing of his friends, Steve McDonogh (Michael's previous publisher) and Aengus Fanning (former Editor of the Sunday Independent). The book finishes strongly with an account of the civil partnership of Terry and Michael. The genuine affection between the couple and their obvious joy on the day of their Civil Partnership ceremony shines through and offers a very personal perspective on the historic changes taking place regarding gay rights in Ireland.

In plant cells, the plasma membrane is a highly elaborated structure that functions as the point of exchange with adjoining cells, cell walls and the external environment. Transactions at the plasma membrane include uptake of water and essential mineral nutrients, gas exchange, movement of metabolites, transport and perception of signaling molecules, and initial responses to external biota. Selective transporters control the rates and direction of small molecule movement across the membrane barrier and manipulate the turgor that maintains plant form and drives plant cell expansion. The plasma membrane provides an environment in which molecular and macromolecular interactions are enhanced by the clustering of proteins in oligimeric complexes for more efficient retention of biosynthetic intermediates, and by the anchoring of protein complexes to promote regulatory interactions. The coupling of signal perception at the membrane surface with intracellular second messengers also involves transduction across the plasma membrane. Finally, the generation and ordering of the external cell walls involves processes mediated at the plant cell surface by the plasma membrane.This volume is divided into three sections. The first section describes the basic mechanisms that regulate all plasma membrane functions. The second describes plasma membrane transport activity. The final section of the book describes signaling interactions at the plasma membrane. These topics are given a unique treatment in this volume, as the discussions are restricted to the plasma membrane itself as much as possible. A more complete knowledge of the plasma membrane's structure and function is essential to current efforts to increase the sustainability of agricultural production of food, fiber, and fuel crops.

As capitalism continues with business as usual, climate change is fast expanding the gap between rich and poor between and within nations, and imposing unparalleled suffering on those least able to protect themselves. In THE GLOBAL FIGHT FOR CLIMATE JUSTICE, anticapitalist activists from five continents offer radical answers to the most important questions of our time: ** Why is capitalism destroying the conditions that make life on Earth possible? ** How can we stop the destruction before it is too late? " In 46 essays on topics ranging from the food crisis to carbon trading to perspectives from indigenous peoples, they make a compelling case that saving the world from climate catastrophe will require much more than tinkering with technology or taxes. Only radical social change can prevent irreversible damage to the earth and civilization. "Essential reading for everyone who is serious about confronting the climate emergency." -Emma Murphy, co-editor, Green Left Weekly EDITED BY IAN ANGUS Ian Angus, who wrote several of the articles in this book and selected the others from a wide range of authors and movements, is one of the world's best-known ecosocialist activists. He is editor of the online journal Climate and Capitalism, which has been described as "the most reliable single source of information and strategic insights for climate justice." Ian is also Associate Editor of Socialist Voice, an Advisory Editor of Socialist Resistance, and a founding member of the Ecosocialist International Network. He lives in Ontario, Canada. THE GLOBAL FIGHT FOR CLIMATE JUSTICE Editor: Ian Angus Publisher: Resistance Books (London) ISBN: 978-0-902869-87-5 Publication Date: July 2009 Trade paperback: 6" x 9" (15cm x 23cm) 284 pages "At last, an absolutely indispensable guide to the debate on climate change, a sourcebook that makes the case for anti-capitalist action as the only effective way to stop global warming. Of course the powers-that-be don't agree - after all, who else is responsible for the current crisis? But we all need The Global Fight for Climate Justice if we are to fight for a liveable world." -Joel Kovel, author of The Enemy of Nature; founding member of the Ecosocialist International Network "A wonderful collection of articles from across the world by climate change activists, from governmental leaders such as Evo Morales to trade unionists like Tony Kearns. This book will inform, excite and energise those who see the need to fight both the impact of climate change and the political systems that have produced it." -Jane Kelly, editor (with Sheila Malone) of Ecosocialism or Barbarism "Everyone who wants a better world should read The Global Fight for Climate Change, to understand the economic, social and political causes of the climate crisis, and the sweeping changes that are needed to save the Earth." -Suzanne Weiss, Socialist Voice contributing editor; author of Anti-Semitism, Zionism, and the Defense of Palestinian Rights "'Socialism or Barbarism' is no longer (if it ever was) an abstract theoretical proposition. This comprehensive collection of essays focused upon the climate and food crises, the responses of capital and socialist alternatives, draws upon both global social movements and leading advocates of an alternative to barbarism to demonstrate that the choice before us is an immediate one, not one to be put off to the future." -Michael A. Lebowitz, author of Build it Now: Socialism for the 21st Century and Beyond Capital: Marx's Political Economy of the Working Class "The most reliable single source of information and stra
