    Summary: "This book explores the impact of soil water deficiency on various aspects of physiological processes in plants. The book explains the effects under soil water deficit condition such as lowering of plant water content, disturbance in carbon metabolism such in photosynthesis, photorespiration and respiration as well as effects of soil water deficit on nitrogen metabolism. The book also educates the readers about, mineral nutrition under soil water deficit condition and roles of different nutrient to overcome water deficit. Changes in growth and development pattern of plant under soil water deficit condition and effects on growth and development are elaborated. This book is of interest to teachers, researchers, scientists in botany and agriculture. Also the book serves as additional reading material for undergraduate and graduate students of agriculture, forestry, ecology, soil science, and environmental sciences. National and international agricultural scientists, policy makers will also find this to be a useful read. The in depth description of the major physiological issues in plants under soil water deficit that are presented in this book will help breeders tailoring crops for desirable physiological survival traits in the face of increasing soil water deficit. This book is an impactful addition to the library of any faculty members, researchers, agricultural policy planner, post graduate or student studying in plant physiology, biochemistry, microbiology and other subjects related to crop husbandry."-- EBSCOhost product page, viewed April 29, 2021.

    In 1975-76 a one-year longitudinal study of the delivery of primary care services was carried out at all ambulatory institutional facilities in Durham County, North Carolina and in 47 of 50 community private practices covering the broad fields of surgery (including urology and orthopedics), medicine, pediatrics, and ob/gyn. The present paper focuses on the private and public clinics of Duke University Medical Center. Data were analyzed to document differentials in sociodemographic characteristics of patients attending these two systems of care. Results showed that patients attending the private clinics are predominantly white and covered by private insurance, while patients attending the public clinics are predominantly black and heavily dependent on Medicaid coverage. The potentially detrimental effects of a two-class system of care on the health of patients, as well as on the education of students, is discussed in the context of a scant medical literature on this subject.
