Sering kita dengar keluhan para tokoh bangsa, kalangan akademisi, maupun wakil rakyat yang mengeluhkan tentang rendahnya minat baca masyarakat di Indonesia. Ada berbagai macam penyebab, alasan, dan solusi yang disampaikan saat membahas topik yang satu ini. Seringkali yang terdengar justru nada-nada pesimis atau nada-nada yang menyalahkan perpustakaan sebagai pihak yang paling bertanggung jawab ata kondisi yang ada. Benarkah demikian? Bagaiamana halnya dengan tanggung jawab para pendidik kita, yang seharusnya lebih berperan strategis dalam mengembangkan minat baca generasi muda kita?rnrnrnPerpustakaan sebagai sumber informasi ilmiah, yang didalamnya banyak tersedia bahan pustaka seperti buku, dapat didayagunakan oleh siapapun utamanya mahasiswa untuk melengkapi referensi dalam menunjang proses pembelajarn. Perpustakaan yang nyaman seperti kemudahan, kecepatan, dan ketepatan dalam menelusur koleksi, dan ruang baca/belajar yang sejuk dapat dijadikan <i>second home </i> bagi mahasiswa. Berbagai perpustakaan perguruan tinggi, banyak yang telah memberikan fasilitas semacam, bahkan akses untuk informasi mutakhir seperti <i>hotspot area</i> juga tersedia 24 jam. Sambil menunggu waktu kuliah berikutnya, atau daripada langsung pulang ke rumah atau kos-kosan setelah kuliah, mahasiswa dapat mendayagunakan perpustakaan.rn

Pembangunan dan perencanaan ibarat jiwa dan raga seorang manusia. Jiwa yang sesehata apapun tidak dapat menggerakkan raga yang tidak sempurna atau tidak sehat. Sebaliknya, raga yang sempurna atau sehat tidak dapat bekerja efektif apabila jiwa-nya tidak sehat. Jiwa yang sehat dan raga yang sempurna adalah syarat agar seorang manusia bekerja secara efektif. Demikianlah jika kita melihat hubungan antara pembangunan dan perencanaan. Keduanya harus berada dalam kesimbangan apabila suatu perencanaan pembangunan ingin efektif mencapai hasil yang diidamkan.rnrnrnSistem Perencanaan Pembangunan Nasional (SPPN) mengajarkan kepada perencana bagaimana memahami perencanaan yang baik. Namun, ada juga yang bersifat hakiki, yaitu pemahaman akan konsep pembangunannya. Oleh karena itu, memahami dan melaksanakan SPPN akan lebih sempurna apabila para perencana memahami konsep pembangunan yang diidealkan.
With an estimated 43% of women experiencing some from sexual problem or complaint, this book is a must-read.

Dr needling acupunture is a new medical modality for treating patients with soft tissue pain and sports injuries. Sports are speciliazed, skilled activities requiring actions that are highly coordinated among different body systems. The nerves, muscles, and skeletal system must cooperate in elaborate patterns of activity according to a precise timing sequence. If a muscle cannot conform to the current timing and pattern, the coordination is broken and the speed and precision of the performance will be impaired, possibly resulting in injury.rnrnrnIn clinical terms, optimal performance is dynamic and needs continuous maintenance. Many factors, especially overtraining, can obstruct the achievement of optimal performance. Sports scientist doctors, coaches, and athletes are always seeking more effective procedures for treating instrinsic muscular fatigue and other problems, and now dry needling acupunture offers a solution.rn
Studying the process of human development across cultures provides us with an opportunity to improve the human condition as well as, hopefully, to acquire the knowledge needed to live more satisfying lives. We therefore begin with an overview of how diverse social science and life science researchers (collectively known as developmentalists) approach the monumental task of studying humans over the course of the life span. Our discussion includes the goals of the scientific community, the recognized framework for studying the life span, what aspects of development warrant extensive examination, and what scientific methods are used to conduct research with humans.rnrnrnHuman development can be described as a process of becoming someone different while remaining in some respects the same person over an extended period of time. Development takes place in three essential area-physical, cognitive, and emotional-social. In other words, you develop when your body, mind, and social relationship change. But many factors-institutions, society, and family-affect individuals and can help or hinder their personal development.rn
To appreciate emerging discoveries in genetic engineering, to understand new techniques for detecting and treating disease, and to make use of published facts and how to stay healthy, you?ll find it helpful to learn about the workings of your body. If you are preparing for a career in health sciences, the study of anatomy and physiology has added rewards because it provides the foundation needed to support your clinical experiences.rnrnAnatomy is a broad field with many subdivisions, each providing enough information to be a course in itself. Gross, or macroscopic, anatomy is the study large body structures visible to the naked eye, such as the hearth, lungs, and kidneys. Indeed, the term anatomy (derived from the Greek words meaning ?to cut apart?) relate most closely to gross anatomy because in such studies preserved animals or their organs are dissected (cut up) to be examined.rnrn
For more than a decade, Risk Communication : A Handbook for Communicating Environmental, Safety, and Health Risks has been a trusted compendium of strategies and guidance for effectively conveying risk information. Managers, scientists, engineers, students, communication specialist, healthcare professionals, agency representative, and consultants in more than twenty countries have benefited from its contemporary, practical advice on what to do and what to avoid for successful risk communication.rnrnrnCombining in-depth scientific underpinnings and the greatest breadth of information available, this book makes the topic of risk communication accessible to those who need it most.

In the three years since the second edition of the ABC of Clinical Haematology, there have been further advances in our understanding and therapies for many haematological disease. For some disorders new classification systems ahve been divised. For many disorders molecular techniques have provided major diagnostic tools and greater insight into the pathogenesis of teh disease themselves.rnrnHowever, despite the complexity of modern clinical haematology, the aim of the ABC of Clinical Haematology is to provide an overview of each disease area, with each chapter written by recognized experts in their respective areas. The structure of the book remains true to the original ABS ethos with succinct text and the liberal use of illustrations and photographic material. Key references providing more detailed information can be found at the end of each chapter to assist readers who may wish to obtain more detailed information about particular topics.rn
Accurate, sensitive, and rapid analytical determinations are essential in food science. Yet how does one select the best method to use for a given analysis? With a wide range of factors to consider and a large number of available methods, choosing one method and using it effectively requires a great deal of expertise.rnrnrnWhich each title stands on its own as a valuable reference, together this guide and its companion title, Handbook of Food Analytical Chemistry : Water, Proteins, Enzymes, Lipids, and Carbohydrates, encompass all of the material that was previously available in Wiley?s Current Protocols in Food Analytical Chemistry.
