PDF Ebook Atlas of Common Skin Diseases in Australia
Submitted by antoq on Wed, 08/19/2009 - 08:33Skin diseases are a bit like the common cold. Apart from some of the skin cancers, they are not recorded in any official registry. They vary enormously from mild conditions which may affect only the appearance of the skin to severe diseases which are totally incapacitating. The degree of treatment required, or even sought, varies accordingly.
Nevertheless, every medical practitioner knows that there are plenty of people suffering with these conditions. A comprehensive survey of general practitioners’ workloads in Australia revealed that skin problems were the primary reason for at least 15% of consultations. On the other hand, community-based data collections show that medical practitioners are consulted about skin conditions by less than 50% of those who have them. People frequently seek advice from others in the community including pharmacists, family or friends and naturopaths, or they merely prescribe for themselves based on information from elsewhere.

Ebook Application of lean paradigm in red meat processing
Submitted by wulan on Thu, 12/24/2009 - 04:14Nearly 100 years ago Henry Ford drew on the Chicago slaughterhouses’ disassembly (breaking down of a meat carcass) processes to build the world’s first assembly flow production line (Hounshell, 1984). Ford’s flow production system for a single product later mutated into mass production for many product variants.
Toyota subsequently developed a flow production system for many product variants lean production (Womack et al., 1990). Lean production contrasts the batch and-queue mode of mass production, by emphasising the importance of smooth flow and continuous improvement (Womack and Jones, 1996; Bicheno, 2000). Presently, lean production is a prominent management concept in today’s world-class industry (Womack and Jones, 1996).

PDF Ebook The Excel 2007 Data & Statistics Cookbook
Submitted by antoq on Sun, 04/12/2009 - 07:09The predecessor to this book was well received, and considering the feedback from
instructors and students, I have expanded the coverage of the data management features of Excel in this update, as these are quite powerful and flexible. This book makes use of Excel 2007 for Microsoft Windows. All the functionality described in this book is also available in Excel 2003, and most of it is available in earlier versions as well. However, as you have already found or will soon find, the screens look very much different in the newest version of Excel. If you are using Excel 2003 or an earlier version, you may find my Excel Statistics Cookbook (2006) more to your liking.
Students, instructors, and researchers wanting to perform data management and basic descriptive and inferential statistical analyses using Excel will find this book helpful. My goal was to produce a succinct guide to conducting the most common basic statistical procedures using Excel as a computational aid. For each procedure, I provide an example problem with data, and then show how to perform the procedure in Excel. I display the output and explain how to interpret it.
