The need for evidence-based decisions that take account of both effectiveness and economics is greater now than ever. Using case studies and illustrative examples throughout the authors describe how the activities and outputs of evidence synthesis, systematic review, economic analysis and decision-making interact within and across different spheres of health and social policy and practice. Expanding on the first edition the book now covers approaches to evidence synthesis that combine economics and systematic review methods in the applied fields of social welfare, education and criminal

Corps of EngineersThese are the voyages of the U.S.S. da Vinci. Their mission: to solve the problems of the galaxy, one disaster at a time. Starfleet veteran Captain David Gold, along with his crack Starfleet Corps of Engineers team lead by former Starship Enterprise ™ engineer Commander Sonya Gomez, travel throughout the Federation and beyond to fix the unfixable, repair the irreparable, and solve the unsolvable.Whether it’s an artificial planetary ring that was damaged during the Dominion War, an out-of-control generation ship, a weapons inspection gone horribly wrong, shutting down

In recent years there has been an unprecedented expansion of knowledge about anthocyanins pigments. Indeed, the molecular genetic control of anthocyanins biosynthesis is now one of the best understood of all secondary metabolic pathways. There have also been substantial improvements in analytical technology that have led to the discovery of novel anthocyanin compounds. Armed with this knowledge and the tools for genetic engineering, plant breeders are now introducing vibrant new colors into horticultural crops. The food industry has also benefited from the resurgence of interest in anthocyanin

This volume fills a gap by presenting a collection of the essential articles that define and develop the real business cycle school, as well as those that criticize it. Key areas include: the establishment of the real business cycle program; the aims and methods of the real business cycle school; analysis of the statistics and econometrics of the calibration techniques advocated by real business cycle modelers; assessment of the empirical success of the real business cycle model from a variety of methods and perspectives; assessment of technical change and a critique of Solow’s measure

An Introduction to Global Environmental Issues is an essential introduction to the current state of scientific knowledge of environmental systems and processes. As theories and research on the global environment become increasingly sophisticated, the causes, effects and most notably the solutions to environmental problems are being studied in an increasingly interdisciplinary manner. This book integrates the cultural, economic and political dimensions of the discussion, offering contemporary case studies drawn from all over the world, and presents cutting-edge research on specific problems.
