Human Development Report: International Cooperation at a

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: United Nations Development Program, PUBLISHER: Oxford University Press, USA, Five years after signing the Millennium Declaration, and at the start of the 10-year countdown to the target date for the Millennium Development Goals, the world's governments are at a crossroads. If they continue with business as usual, will be the year in which the pledge of the Millennium Declaration is broken. If they act now to deliver on their pledges to the world's poorest people, they can make the start of a decade for development, helping countries to get back on track for achieving the Millennium Development Goals by and forging a new, more equitable pattern of globalization. This year's Human Development Report takes stock of human development, including progress towards the MDGs. Looking beyond statistics, it highlights the human costs of missed targets and broken promises. Extreme inequality between countries and within countries is identified as one of the main barriers to human development--and as a powerful brake on accelerated progress towards the MDGs. New approaches to international cooperation are vital if the promise of the Millennium Declaration is to be realized. Practical action is needed to make the next 10 years a "decade for development." Focusing on aid, trade and security--three of the central pillars of international cooperation-- Human Development Report sets out a bold analysis of the problems and identifies solutions. It argues that rich countries need to move beyond encouraging words to align their policies with the commitments made in the Millennium Declaration.

The Dynamic Architecture of a Developing Organism: An

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Beloussov, L. V., PUBLISHER: Springer, This book is the first comprehensive attempt to consider the development of organisms as a multi-level feedback-linked self-organizing process. Accordingly, the data related to morphogenetic cell activities and to the development of entire organisms are reconsidered and reformulated in terms of theories of symmetry and self-organization, which is described in non-specialist terms. An important role for biomechanical feedback is emphasized. Two opposing approaches to development are outlined, a genocentric' one and a morphocentric' one, and the possibility of their combination is discussed. Unlike other books recently published in biotheoretical and biomathematical fields, this book is centered around developmental problems. Audience: Students and researchers in biology, biomechanics and mathematical modelling.
