    A fresh new look at the science of human and nonhuman behavior, focusing on how evolution shapes choices and actions of all kinds Although traditional, reinforcement-based approaches to behavior have proven to be ineffective, the field of applied behavior analysis is alive and well. Introduction to Behavior: An Evolutionary Perspective introduces readers to contemporary perspectives on why people and other organisms do what they do. Examining the concepts of behavior and organism from within an evolutionary framework--including how natural selection influences species-wide tendencies--this book sets a foundation for observing, measuring, and understanding behavior. Founded on up-to-date research and written by one of the leading scholars in the field, this book explores why and when behaviors change (or stay the same), how environmental inputs interact with evolution to produce behavioral outcomes, and how evolutionary theory can be mobilized to explain verbal, social, and cultural behavior phenomena. Filling an important need for a new conceptual framework in basic and applied behavior analysis, Introduction to Behavior trains undergraduates, graduate students, and professionals to study and theorize about behavior through the powerful lens of evolution.

    This book details recent advances in the applications of nanobiofertilizers as a substitute for synthetic fertilizers in boosting food production. With the steady rise of the world's population, there is a need to increase the production of safe and nutritious food. The constant loss of arable land, as a result of various anthropogenic activities from human action, has become a threat to global biodiversity and ecosystems. Additionally, the issue of climate change has imposed many obstacles to increasing agricultural productivity, especially from biotic and abiotic stressors and temperature-limited environments, such as in high altitudes or seasonally hot regions. Because of these factors, there is a need to adopt sustainable and modern technologies that can boost and improve the rate of food production. One of the cheapest means of enhancing sustainable food production is to explore natural and unlimited beneficial microorganisms, particularly those that can increase the level of soil fertility, improve crop production and health, improve tolerance to stress, support nutrient uptake and availability, and boost natural biodiversity. The synergetic effect of nanotechnology and beneficial microorganisms for the effective bio-fabrication of nanobiofertilizers, is a sustainable solution for producing pesticide-free food. This book provides a deep insight into microbial diversity, recent techniques used for the isolation, screening, and characterization of beneficial microorganisms with eco-friendly attributes, used for bioengineering of nanobiofertilizers, as well as the application of proteomics, metabolomics, genomics, and bioinformatics. The book also covers commercialization, patents, and the business and socio-economic aspects of nanobiofertilizers, as well as the role of policymakers, stakeholders, and government agencies in the translation of nanobioferilizer research into policy. Audience The book is a useful resource for a diverse audience, including industrialists, food industry professionals, agriculturists, agricultural microbiologists, plant pathologists, botanists, microbiologists, biotechnologists, nanotechnologists, microbial biotechnologists, farmers, policymakers, and extension workers.

    The role of the gastrointestinal (GI) tract in the maintenance of health and prevention of disease has been a concept proposed for thousands of years. However, until recently our understanding of the role of the GI tract was predominantly limited to digestion and absorption. The importance of the intestinal barrier function of the GI tract was not well understood due to limitations in medical technology, resulting in less research being conducted in this area. Increased intestinal permeability (IP), referred to as "leaky gut" in lay terms, was considered a pseudoscience. Until recently, clinicians referring to increased IP as a real occurrence would have had their credibility questioned [1, 2]. Today, the importance of the GI tract in the development and management of intestinal and extra-intestinal conditions is receiving significant interest from researchers, clinicians and the general population. Increased IP is now recognised as a real phenomenon that contributes to the development of conditions ranging from inflammatory bowel disease to non-alcoholic fatty liver disease, with research in the area rapidly growing and evolving [2, 3].

    Cells may die by a number of mechanisms, whether it be to the detriment or benefit of the organism. This can be external to the control of the cell, or initiated and executed by the cell itself, in response to various stimuli. Programmed cell death, when the cell regulates its own demise in response to specific stimuli, may occur through processes such as apoptosis, necroptosis and pyroptosis (D'Arcy, 2019). The most commonly investigated form of programmed cell death to date is apoptosis, which was first described in 1972 (Kerr et al., 1972). Further advances have been made in the understanding of apoptosis since then, stemming from investigation of programmed cell death in C. elegans (Horvitz, 1999). Its evolutionary conservation as a mechanism of cell death across diverse species, ranging from the aforementioned nematodes to mammals, indicates the ironic importance of this process in the maintenance of life (Severin et al., 2008). Apoptosis is important in both health and disease, regulating embryonic development and displaying polarising roles in pathologies such as cancer and sepsis (Glab et al., 2017b). As such, apoptosis can be both harmful and beneficial to an organism. Additionally, unlike sporadic cell death mechanisms like necrosis, the orderly manner of apoptotic cell disassembly enables the process to go largely undetected by the immune system and avoid initiating inflammatory responses that may otherwise damage the surrounding tissue (Rock and Kono, 2008). Apoptosis can be initiated in response to a variety of stimuli, both intra- and extracellular in origin (Danial and Korsmeyer, 2004). These then activate one of two distinct pathways, ultimately converging on the death of the cell

    "At mmWave frequencies 5G encounters several new problems, and finding out how to effectively test designs represents a very important factor in the development of novel designs. Novel key performance indicators in which not only conventional RF parameters are examined but also other more-signal-processing related parameters and overall radio performance make antennas necessarily smart to survive the market evolution. The huge shrinkage needs prioritized in 4G modules are now combined with extremely versatile and precise beamforming capacities, thermal mitigation and link budget compensation design strategies that make antennas move to a new era."--

    MULTI-DRUG RESISTANCE IN CANCERThe book details the mechanisms underlying multi-drug cellular resistance and the targets of novel chemotherapeutic agents.Cancer is a major killer all over the world. Even with all the progress made, chemotherapy is still the mainstay of modern cancer treatment. The progression of the cellular defeat of numerous independent anticancer drugs in terms of their chemical structure is a major barrier to successful chemotherapy. Multi-drug resistance (MDR) is a term for the fact that most cancer patients exhibit this phenomenon. According to the numbers, drug resistance carries the blame for 90% of cancer patient deaths. Refractory cancer and tumor recurrence are common outcomes of prolonged chemotherapy. Because of the prevalence of drug-resistance mutations, the difficulty of treating tumors increases and the therapeutic efficacy of drugs decreases.Multi-Drug Resistance in Cancer: Mechanism and Treatment Strategies contains nine chapters that cover topics such as: studying the mechanics of resistance to drugs by autophagy; studies to delineate the role of efflux transporters; expression of drug transporters; resistance to targeted therapies in breast cancer; advances in metallodrug driven combination treatment for cancer; and use of natural agents for the overcoming of cancer drug resistance.The book aims to provide the latest data on the mechanisms of cellular resistance to anticancer agents currently used in clinical treatment. It provides a better understanding of the mechanisms of MDR and targets of novel chemotherapy agents which should guide future research concerning new effective strategies in cancer treatment.AudienceThis book is written for pharmaceutical and biomedical scientists and researchers at both the bench and in the clinic who are interested in the mechanisms and strategies for overcoming cancer's multi-drug resistance.
