Handbook on Information Technologies for Education and Training
The handbook's goal is to enable the reader to gain a deep understanding of past, current and future research and applications in the field of educational technology. The reader will gain an in-depth understanding of complex theories, strategies, concepts, and methods relating to the design, development, implementation, and evaluation of educational technologies. Because it combines both the present experience in the field and the vision of its emerging directions, the handbook will be a comprehensive guide for researchers and practitioners working with educational technologies. All the chapters of the second edition are newly written, the handbook therefore presents the latest developments in the field.

Decision support systems have experienced a marked increase in attention and importance over the past 25 years. The aim of this book is to survey the decision support system (DSS) field – covering both developed territory and emergent frontiers. It will give the reader a clear understanding of fundamental DSS concepts, methods, technologies, trends, and issues. It will serve as a basic reference work for DSS research, practice, and instruction. To achieve these goals, the book has been designed according to a ten-part structure, divided in two volumes with chapters authored by well-known, well-versed scholars and practitioners from the DSS community.
Handbook of the Sociology of Emotions
This book is designed to bring the reader up to date on the theory and research traditions that have proliferated in the analysis of human emotions.

Handbook of Petroleum Processing
"This Handbook describes and discusses the features that make up the petroleum refining industry. It begins with a description of the crude oils and their nature. It continues with the saleable products from the refining processes, with a review of the modern day environmental impact. There is a complete overview of the processes that make up the refinery with a brief history of the processes. It also describes design technique, operation, and, in the case of catalytic units, the chemistry of the reaction routes. These discussions are supported by calculation procedures and examples, sufficient to enable good input to modern computer simulation packages. The Handbook also covers off-sites and utilities, as well as environmental and safety aspects relevant to the industry."

The theory of computation is used to address challenges arising in many computer science areas such as artificial intelligence, language processors, compiler writing, information and coding systems, programming language design, computer architecture and more. To grasp topics concerning this theory readers need to familiarize themselves with its computational and language models, based on concepts of discrete mathematics including sets, relations, functions, graphs and logic.
Handbook of Instruments in Dentistry
Instrumentation is an important aspect of surgical and dental clinical practice. The instruments have evolved over the period of time in terms of metallurgy, design and cost effectiveness. Many types of instruments are commercially available but it is a big dilemma for the clinician to decide as to which is the best. To optimise the clinical results, choice of proper instruments and its proper and effective utilization is of immense importance. This aspect is badly neglected in the curricula and no structured training is offered. The clinician develops the skill of instrumentation by self-perception or by imitation. The choice of instrument also varies from clinician to clinician as it depends upon the skill and convenience of the individual clinician.
