Volume 20: The Auction Catalogue of Kierkegaard's Library

Volume 20: The Auction Catalogue of Kierkegaard's Library

This volume is a revised and improved edition of the auction catalogue of Kierkegaard’s private library. The catalogue has long served as one of the most valuable tools in Kierkegaard studies and has been actively used by commentators translators and researchers for tracing the various sources of Kierkegaard’s thought. With the catalogue in hand one can determine with some degree of probability what books he read and what editions he used for his information about specific authors. The present volume represents the fourth printing of the catalogue and it differs from its predecessors in many respects. The previous editions contained incomplete erroneous and inconsistent bibliographical information about the works in the catalogue. The primary goal of the present edition was to obtain all of the books and check their title pages for the precise bibliographical information. The result is an accurate and reliable edition of the catalogue that conforms to the needs of Kierkegaard studies in the digital age. | Volume 20: The Auction Catalogue of Kierkegaard's Library

Genetics Genomics and Breeding of Soybean

Genetics Genomics and Breeding of Soybean

The soybean is an economically important leguminous seed crop for feed and food products that is rich in seed protein (about 40 percent) and oil (about 20 percent); it enriches the soil by fixing nitrogen in symbiosis with bacteria. Soybean was domesticated in northeastern China about 2500 BC and subsequently spread to other countries. The enormous economic value of soybean was realized in the first two decades of the 20th century with world production of soybean tripling in the last 20 years. In addition to human consumption it is a major protein source in animal feeds and is becoming a major crop for biodiesel production. In the international trade markets soybean is ranked number one in the world among the major oil crops. For many decades plant breeders have used conventional breeding techniques to improve soybeans. While soybean production continues to expand as demand for soybeans and soybean products increases there is a need for more sophisticated techniques. Bridging traditional research with modern molecular investigations on soybean this volume explores the recent advances in soybean genome mapping molecular breeding genomics sequencing and bioinformatics. The book will be useful to soybean researchers as well as researchers working with other crop species. | Genetics Genomics and Breeding of Soybean
