This critical volume addresses an important contemporary issue, how to determine themost cost-effective approach to solid waste disposal. Based on wide-ranging, practicalexperience, this time-saving work details a systems approach to feasibility studies, providingthe basis for accurate, efficient analysis.

Insects engage in intimate associations with microbial symbionts that colonize their digestive systems or internal cells and tissues. The stability and near ubiquity of many of these "symbioses" implies their importance, a prediction supported through experimentation. With the advancing power of experimental methodologies and the growing accessibility of genomic techniques, insect science has reached a powerful new stage enabling the study of previously recalcitrant symbioses, including several with medical and agricultural significance. In this volume we publish a collection of chapters focused on the physiology of insect-microbe symbioses, emphasizing their mechanistic underpinnings, and the ecological and evolutionary causes and consequences of these interactions. Resident microbes modulate insect digestion, nutrition, detoxification, reproduction, interspecies signaling, and host-parasite interactions, and these chapters synthesize impactful, state-of-the art research on insect-microbe symbioses. Through discussions of the mechanisms that both stabilize and regulate these symbioses, these chapters yield further insight into the physiological integration between many insects and their influential microbial partners.

"Daniel," writes D. S. Russell, "is a fascinatiing book which speaks as profoundly to our day as it did to the day it was first written. Its message declared unequivocally that the sovereign Lord God was in control not only of history but also of the end of history." An exciting demonstration of trust and devotion, Daniel offers a positive...

HEAVEN SENT is the inspirational story of Episcopal priests Bubba and Harry Dailey, who during the past two decades have transformed Austin Street Centre in Dallas into a compassionate and caring Christian community. Yoked by a call to serve the poor, the Daileys have touched the lives of thousands of homeless people by providing help, hope and healing.HEAVEN SENT is about answered prayers for new beginnings and about selflessness -- sublimating your will to God's will. This unique and compelling love story also validates the theme that as God's children and heirs, we are called to proclaim His glory and build His kingdom.HEAVEN SENT is a tender and touching call to action for Christians. It's a reminder to the flock that serving the "least of these" is tantamount to serving the Savior. (Matthew 25:40)
