Community–Acquired Pneumonia (CAP) refers to pneumonia acquired outside of hospitals or extended–care facilities, and is distinct from Nosocomial or hospital–acquired pneumonia, which is a separate disease entity. It is one of the most common respiratory infections and presents one of the major health problems today, with an incidence that ranges from eight to fifty cases per thousand individuals each year. Mortality is still very high and yet the risk factors are very well known. Many of these are related to antibiotic treatment; delay in administration, inadequacy of empiric antibiotics and lack of adherence to guidelines for treatment are all clearly associated with poor treatment outcomes.
Following a description of the epidemiology and microbial etiology of ambulatory and hospitalized CAP, this bookÂ provides an in–depth review of the important new advances in therapeutics, including management of drug resistance to the three major classes of antibiotics used for treatment of CAP: Î²–lactams, macrolides and quinolones. All of them have advantages and disadvantages and these are put into perspective. This book highlights guideline recommendations and presents a balanced analysis to help physicians deliver the highest standard of care. In addition, the authors provide an insight into the 10% of patients who do not respond to antibiotics and could benefit from adjunctive therapies, some still under review.
This volume will be welcomed by pulmonologists and all clinicians involved in managing community–acquired pneumonia.

Communism is dead, traditional social democracy is weak, and neo–liberalism has failed. Can the Left fill the vacuum?
The essays in this book argue that there is a viable future for left–of–center politics, but that it requires a radical break with the assumptions of the past. The deepening globalization of production, the break–up of working–class communities, and the limitations of the centralized state demand new thinking about economic renewal and social reform. Autonomy must supplement equality as the leading value of the Left; inequalities of power must be corrected outside the workplace as well as within it; markets must be directed and not abolished; and radical democracy must be established as an end in itself.
In this book Anthony Giddens and Perry Anderson debate social change in industralized societies; Gordon Brown and Anne Phillips address the meaning and value of community; Michel Rocard and Will Hutton discuss alternative economic strategies; Gosta Esping–Andersen and Frances Fox Piven propose new ideas for the welfare state; and David Marquand and Jos de Beus set out competing visions for the European Union.

Crushing equipment is a type of construction equipment that is designed to crush large-sized materials, such as minerals and rocks, into finely crushed materials, such as rock dust and sand. Apart from reducing the size, crushers can also be used to recycle waste materials. The crushing equipment can change the form of waste materials so they can be easily recycled and disposed of. It can also be used to differentiate different compositions of a solid mix of raw materials by reducing the size of it, enabling the separation of different particles based on their size.
The analysts forecast the global crushing equipment market to grow at a CAGR of 3.05% during the period 2017-2021.
The report covers the present scenario and the growth prospects of the global crushing equipment market for 2017-2021. The report presents a detailed picture of the market by way of study, synthesis, and summation of data from multiple sources.
The report, Global Crushing Equipment Market 2017-2021, has been prepared based on an in-depth market analysis with inputs from industry experts. The report covers the market landscape and its growth prospects over the coming years. The report also includes a discussion of the Key vendors operating in this market.
The author of the report recognizes the following companies as the key players in the global crushing equipment market: Eagle Crusher Company, Metso, Sandvik, and Terex.
Other Prominent Vendors in the market are: SHANGHAI SHIBANG MACHINERY (SBM), Zhejiang Shuangjin Machinery Holdings, IROCK CRUSHERS, R.R. EQUIPMENT, MORMAK EQUIPMENT, SCREEN MACHINE INDUSTRIES, Superior Industries, Zhengzhou YiFan Machinery, Mark & Wedell, Lippmann Milwaukee, Global Crushers, Triaso, Kleemann, Puzzolana, The Weir Group, Stedman Machine Company, REMco, Astec Industries, McLanahan, Retsch, FLSmidth, ELRUS Aggregate Systems, Bico Braun International, thyssenkrupp, Gujarat Apollo Industries, Tesab Engineering, McCloskey International, TORSA MACHINES, Minyu Machinery, and Kawasaki Heavy Industries.
According to the report, one driver in the market is use of artificial sand for construction work. Construction and infrastructure projects make use of river sand. River sand provides strength, bulk, and adhesive properties to construction materials, such as cement, brick, asphalt, and concrete. It is also used for landscaping projects. However, since 2010, many regional governments and countries, such as Cambodia and India, have banned the export of river sand. This is because sand mining results in the erosion of river banks and negatively impacts biodiversity. Also, river sand is exhausting rapidly because of extensive mining.
Further, the report states that one challenge in the market is increased popularity of rental construction equipment. Most crushing devices are very costly, especially tracked excavators that require high initial investments. Thus, it is very difficult for mining companies to buy new crushing equipment for mining projects that are of a low scale or budget, and are of short duration. As a result, the trend of rental construction equipment is gaining popularity globally. Mining companies that have high pressures to reduce costs of projects rent the crushing equipment on a weekly basis, based on their requirements. This practice reduces the cost incurred by mining companies as the cost of buying new crushing equipment and maintaining them for an extended period is cut down.
