This book examines how to conduct due diligence on mergers and acquisitions for organizations in China written from a management perspective. It highlights models that appear straightforward and yet are susceptible to oversights and failings and examines the roles of human resource practitioners from when a target company is identified for mergers or acquisitions through to assessing its risks.

The Chinese higher education sector is an area subject to increasing attention from an international perspective. Written by authors centrally located within the education system in China, "Developments and Reform of Higher Education in China" highlights not only the development of different aspects of higher education, but also the reform of the education system, and its role in the educational and social development of the country. This book analyzes recently collected data from the National Bureau of Statistics of China and the work of leading scholars in the field of higher education. It highlights the marketization of state-owned institutions and the increasing importance of the internationalization of higher education – two important features of education in a modern and global context.

Engineers employ shear connections - riveted and bolted butt and lap joints - in a wide range of structures and machines. Ordinary stress analyses of joints are unable to define the features that ultimately govern fatigue and fretting and provide bases for design. Detailed analyses have only become possible recently with advances in finite element methods and computing capabilities. This text places into context the results of over 150 detailed 2D and 3D finite element analyses of aluminum and steel shear connections so that engineers can optimize the design and reliability of shear joints.

Bender's Dictionary of Nutrition and Food Technology, Seventh Edition, remains the essential reference book for anyone interested in nutrition, dietetics, food science, and food technology. The first edition was published 40 years ago and contained 2,000 entries. This Seventh Edition now includes over 5,000 succinct, authoritative definitions.The study of food and nutrition covers a wide range of disciplines, including: agriculture and horticulture, the physiology and biochemistry of nutrition and metabolism, the technologies of food processing, social sciences and the law, clinical medicine, disease prevention, and health promotion. Anyone involved in the study of nutrition and food technology will inevitably find articles and lectures that cross the boundaries of individual subjects and use unfamiliar terminology and jargon. Benders' Dictionary of Nutrition and Food Technology provides the perfect solution.This new edition includes all new terms and techniques, and reflects the change of focus in the study of nutrition from curative to preventative techniques, including the increasing interest in functional foods. This dictionary also includes old terms that have become obsolete, in order to assist those referring to earlier literature.Nutrient composition data and tables for recommended nutrient intakes are also provided, making this book the most comprehensive and up-to-date desk-top reference available for those who need to know about nutrition and food technology.

The first edition of Duncan Manley's reference book Technology of biscuits, crackers and cookies quickly established itself as the essential reference for anyone involved in the manufacture of biscuits, cookies and crackers. The publication of a fully revised and updated new edition will be warmly welcomed by this important industry. It is almost ten years since the publication of the second edition of this book. The pace of change witnessed by the food industry over the last decade more than justifies the publication of a fully revised and updated third edition. The increasing importance of safety and quality issues has led to a new chapter on TQM and HACCP. Another significant development in the past ten years has been the demand from consumers for increasingly innovative and nutritionally valuable foods. Manley has extensively revised and expanded the sections on product development and included new material on nutritional issues to enable manufacturers to meet these demands.
