Symmetry - world year of physics issue I should have mentioned when it came out that we published a World Year of Physics special issue of symmetry.
The cover
has generated much interest with various places requesting
permission to use it on posters, in magazines, and all over the place.
It's not your usual science magazine cover and I was a little nervous
about running with it but it has been wildly successful. We won't do
that every time but we are going to stretch the boundaries of what you

Authors: Hardcover, 418 pagesPublisher: Elsevier Publication Date: 1992-10-01 Edition: 1 Reviews :

A Byzantine Encyclopaedia of Horse Medicine: The Sources, Compilation, and Transmission of the Hippiatrica (Oxford Studies in Byzantium)
Authors: Anne McCabe. Hardcover, 280 pagesPublisher: Oxford University Press, USA Publication Date: 2007-06-21 Reviews :

How were Greek texts on the care and medical treatment of the horse transmitted from antiquity to the present day? Using the evidence of Byzantine manuscripts of the veterinary compilation known as the Hippiatrica, Anne McCabe traces the journey of the texts from the stables to the medieval scriptorium and ultimately to the printed edition. Surviving manuscripts include both magnificent presentation copies and plain ones intended for use in the field. The Hippiatrica is a rich and little-known source of information about horses, medicine, and magic. This book provides a guide to its complex history as well as a host of fascinating details, and includes color illustrations of a number of manuscript pages....

Nutrition And Feeding Of The Broodmare (Eaap Publication)
Authors: Hardcover, 416 pagesPublisher: Wageningen Pers Publication Date: 2006-09-30 Reviews :

This publication deals with the broodmare, which is the key animal in the Equine chain. In the new competitive context of Equine Industry, the mare should foal a healthy offspring yearly at an optimum cost. The foal should be born and weaned at the accurate months of the year to fit the particular goals of production, i.e. races, sports or leisure horses. The improvement of knowledge of the biology of pregnancy and lactation on the one hand and of the nutrition and the interaction between nutrition and physiology of reproduction on the other hand is of major concern to the equine industry. The book is divided in six parts: Pregnancy; Lactation; The foal; Feeding practices and pasture management; Nutrition and reproductive performances; and, Advances in reproductive biotechnologies. Each part contains peer-reviewed contributions by well known experts. These materials are the second step of further discussion on the evaluation and prediction of the requirements of the different types of horses covered in the scope of the working group of the Horse commission of the European Association for Animal Production. All those concerned with husbandry and feeding systems in the equine industry will find this book a valuable resource. It serves as a reference point for scientists, veterinarians, adviser officers, and practioneers in the equine industry, as well as for teachers and students in equine science....
