This article is a criticism of the neoclassical economics infl uence on theories of management using the experience and lessons from the evolution of the debates in development studies. I argue that this infl uence has introduced values that are incompatible with the values of what could be a socially responsible society in a modern view of what is development. The article fi rstly examines the...

The process of child development is shaped by experience, and children who live in different socioeconomic strata have difference experiences. Thus, it should not be surprising that socioeconomic status (SES) is a pervasive predictor of child development. Children from higher SES families reliably fare better than children from lower SES families on a wide range of developmental outcomes from i...

Microclimate may infl uence use of early successional habitat by birds. We assessed the relationships between avian habitat use and microclimate (temperature, light intensity, and relative humidity) in experimentally created canopy gaps in a bottomland hardwood forest on the Savannah River Site, SC. Gaps were 2to 3-year-old group-selection timber harvest openings of three sizes (0.13, 0.26, 0.5...

The infl uence of alternating electric fi elds of various frequency levels (from 10 to 400 Hz) on the growth of various microorganisms was studied. It was shown, that electric fi elds with frequencies from 10 to 60 Hz were stimulating microbial growth, while higher frequencies were causing its inhibition. No growth of yeasts and streptococci was detected after 1 hr treatment with 400 Hz frequen...

human activities may correlate with the probability of pathogen introduction through introduced species (6), fomites, or other sources of infectious particles, with the likelihood of introduction higher for ranavirus. Certainly, both pathogens are presumed to be vectored in association with human activities (7,8), but B. dendrobatidis exhibits a greater host and geographic range and thus should...

Ageing has occurred in all regions of the world, with impact on neuropsychiatric disorders, particularly dementia. However, previous meta-analysis and reviews have shown high variability in world dementia prevalence rates. Objective: The aim of this study was to perform a wide-ranging review of the dementia prevalence studies published in recent years. Methods: The search was made on Medline, L...
