Description:
Gender provides a powerful social heuristic for structuring incoming information. Thus, it may be difficult to attend to aspects of a person's sex without also activating irrelevant gender associations. In two experiments, an auditory Stroop revealed implicit gender associations. Participants categorized the sex of voices saying names and words stereotypically associated with male, female or neutral gender roles. Both adults and children were slower when the voice's sex was stereotypically incongruent with the spoken word or name. Although both groups showed such interference, children-who are generally less flexible about gender roles-showed more interference in response to gender-stereotypical words (e.g., football) than names (e.g., Rachel), whereas adults showed the opposite pattern. Given the simplicity of this task, the auditory Stroop might be used both to tap into implicit gender associations and to investigate their development. ... Read more

Description:
It is argued that bioaugmentation is best reserved for particularly recalcitrant contaminants where an autochthonous population may be missing, and that selection has produced the microbial diversity required for clean-up of less recalcitrant contaminants. However, biodegradable contaminants may persist as a result of sub-optimal environmental conditions such as temperature, pH, electron acceptor availability and biotic factors such as predation by protozoa. A role for immobilised-cell bioaugmentation may therefore still be envisaged for the bioremediation of, say, persistent fuel spills under such conditions, or in extreme environments. In this laboratory-scale study we examined the potential of immobilised hydrocarbon-degrading microorganisms for the clean up of diesel-contaminated soil. We used polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) cryogelation as an entrapment technique and microorganisms indigenous to the site. We constructed laboratory biopiles to compare immobilised bioaugmentation with liquid culture bioaugmentation and biostimulation. In terms of percentage removal of diesel after 32 days, the immobilised systems were found to be the most successful, with greatest removal in a co-immobilisation system containing PVA-entrapped microorganisms and a synthetic oil absorbent. Least success was achieved with a commercial liquid bioaugmentation agent containing surfactants and having a low pH, which also produced significant phytotoxicity. Other advantages of PVA cryogelation are discussed. ... Read more

Product Description
The Summa Theologiæ ranks among the greatest documents of the Christian Church. It provides the framework for Catholic studies in systematic theology and for a classical Christian philosophy. The purpose, then, of this edition is not narrowly ecclesiastical, but to share with all Christians this treasury of wisdom which is part of their common heritage. Moreover, it consults the interests of many who, without claiming to be believers, appreciate a religious integrity which embodies hardbitten rationalism and who recognise in St Thomas a master of that perennial philosophy which, though not confined to the West, is the foundation on which our civilisation is built. Because of this the editors worked under specific instructions to bear in mind not only the professional theologian, but also the general reader with an interest in the 'reason' in Christianity. The publication of the Latin text along with the English will be reassuring to readers with a smattering of Latin, and has the advantages of permitting the translator somewhat more freedom in adapting the text in translation to the understanding of contemporary minds. Each volume contains a glossary of technical terms and is designed to be complete in itself to serve for private study or as the text-book for a special course. ... Read more
