      Focusing on the generalized log Pearson (GLP) type VII distribution, this book explores its flexibility in data fitting compared to the standard log Pearson type VII. It discusses the parameter combinations that enhance the distribution's utility, including its closure under inversion, leading to various derived distributions. Theoretical properties are developed, and the distribution is characterized through conditional expectation. It effectively models datasets, validated by Anderson-Darling and Cramer-von Mises statistics, while also establishing the generalized log normal distribution as its limiting form.

      Focusing on the needs of dictionary users, this work critiques current pedagogical dictionaries for their global approach, arguing they should cater to specific language needs of L1 users. The study emphasizes the importance of tailored learners' dictionaries for optimal user satisfaction. The author, with extensive experience in teaching literature and linguistics and a notable track record of mentoring PhD and MPhil scholars, brings a rich perspective to the discourse on lexicography and its educational implications.

      Investigation on formose reaction under partial conversion of HCHO

      Investigation on formose reaction under partial conversion of formaldehyde with a view to produce edible sugars

      • 160 pages
      • 6 hours of reading

      Focusing on the formose reaction, this dissertation explores its implications for synthesizing edible sugars and its relevance to the origin of life and space regenerative systems. It highlights the complexity of sugar production due to chain distribution and the effects of full versus partial conversion of HCHO. The research proposes strategies for optimizing conditions to enhance selectivity for C3 or C6 carbohydrates and emphasizes the need for improved analytical methods in HPLC. Overall, it aims to deepen understanding of the reaction and its potential applications.

      Mango Malformation and its innovative management

      Mango malformation disease

      • 144 pages
      • 6 hours of reading

      Focusing on the challenges faced by global mango production, this book delves into the malformation disease affecting mango trees, which undermines orchard efficiency and economic viability. It addresses the confusion surrounding the disease's etiology and reviews various management strategies that have yet to provide a complete solution. The text presents recent research on the malformation pathogen, including its detection, infectivity, and population structure, ultimately revealing that malformation is a fungal disease, thus clarifying longstanding misconceptions.
