Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware -Caribbean women's economic status cannot be separated from prevailing social norms and values related to their responsibility for the home and family. Since the period of African slavery, Caribbean family forms have not conformed to the European nuclear family 'ideal.' Studies in the 2000s showed that nearly half of households were headed by women. In many cases opportunities and incentives are unfavourable for women to begin businesses, even when they have the abilities and knowledge. One implication of this study is that the phenomenon of financial bootstrapping deserves more attention in future research on small business finance. This line of research is important to academics and practitioners alike, as it contributes to our understanding of the use of bootstrapping by women entrepreneurs. The findings from this study offer promise that bootstrapping can in fact be linked to the growth and development of financing alternatives and entrepreneurship for women in Trinidad and Tobago. 84 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware -This paper intends to highlight the significance, effects and implications of collaborative efforts between national and international agricultural research organizations with implications for new crops like amaranth (Amaranthusspp) and quinoa (Chenopodium quinoa). According to Fishbough (1997), agricultural research collaboration has been defined as a formal cooperation established between two or more autonomous partners whose aim is to attain substantive or symbolic goals that no partner could achieve alone. It is mostly initiated and owned by the will of partners that seek access to external resources for capacity building and to run joint projects. Collaboration is also done as a partnership of students, faculty, and community members who come together to engage in research and development projects, with the purpose of solving pressing problems and leading to social changes.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware -Nanotechnology has studied the formation of silver nanoparticles and it has the application of extremely small things in different scientific fields, such as chemistry, biology, physics, materials science, and engineering. It deals with the formation of nanoparticles (size of 1-100 nm). Utilization of biological materials in the synthesis of nanoparticles is one of the hottest topics in modern Nanoscience and nanotechnology. In the present investigation, the silver nanoparticles were synthesized by using the leaf extract of Catharanthus roseus. The aqueous extract of leaf was used for the phytochemical analysis to find out the phytochemical constituents in the plants. The results of the phytochemical analysis of this plant showed that the proteins, carbohydrates, phenol, and alkaloids were found.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware -Phthalic acid esters are anthropogenic compounds widely used as plasticizers in plastics as a softening agent. Diethyl (hexyl) phthalate is the predominant phthalic acid ester, which is widely used in plastic medical devices. Diethyl (hexyl) phthalate is less susceptible to biodegradation and thus microbial degradation of these plasticizers in plastics is a great challenge as these materials are increasingly used in the day-to-day needs. Some fungi have the potential for remediating the diethyl (hexyl) phthalate contained in medical devices and thus cleaning the phthalate contaminated sites.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware -Today India is passing through the phase of communication revolution, which has brought about a significant growth of media in mass communication. It has become an important part of development initiatives in various sectors. This work is significant because communication media play a substantial role in developing rural resources and motivating the masses for adopting new technology. It has the potential to widen experimental horizons, to focus attention, to raise aspirations and to create a climate for development. In addition to transferring technology, communication media like television and other communication media which have the potential to confer developmental status, to enforce social norms so as to help cultivating tastes and could also affect lightly presumed attitudes. The challenge is to accommodate stable resources and the power of communication skillfully for economic and social development. There is a need to recognize that communication is a powerful force for rural change.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Niels Bohr, a eminent Nobel laureate, remarked wittily: 'An expert is a person who has made all the mistakes that can be made in a very narrow field'. Egyptologists claim that the Egyptian pharaoh Amenhotep IV (Akhenaten) was a religious reformer who proclaimed the primacy of the solar god Aton over all other gods. But 19 rays on a limestone slab from Ancient Egypt, located in the Egyptian museum in Berlin, already almost 200 years convince us of the opposite. And to this day, Egyptologists are mistaken in answering the question of how to decipher the name 'Nefertiti', where she was born and also where the 'Garden of Eden' was located, but the text in this book and 'x-ray photographs' of the Jordan Valley is absolutely new information about this. In the Great Egyptian pyramid, from special compartments, which Egyptologists mistakenly call 'the King's Chamber' and 'the Queen's Chamber', four mysterious extremely narrow and long shafts come out but Egyptologists are mistaken when they explain for what purpose these shafts are intended. How the ancient highly developed civilization intended to use them and much more new and unknown, you will read in this book. 56 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -In Platonic ontology, all beings, both the visible or physical and the invisible or metaphysical ones, are located somewhere. Why however does Plato attribute such importance to the concept of place, and in what specific way should we exactly consider this need in general of Plato to locate all beings without exception in a certain place This is the main question which is elaborated in this book. Through the attempt to give an answer to it, that which is in essence being sought, is to make it evident that, for Plato, 'Being' and 'Place' are concepts inseparable from each other, and that the broad concept of place cannot be identified with physical, geometric space. As such, the study of this inseparable correlation between Being and Place in Plato' s thought, presented in this book, is of important research interest for academics, scholars and researchers in the field of Philosophy, and in particular of the Platonic philosophy. At the same time, it is, however, also particularly useful for students of Philosophy, as well as for anyone else interested in examining the concepts of 'Being' and 'Place' and in exploring the relationship between them. 60 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Western knowledge has been undergoing development over many centuries because it is based on scientific tests and verification. Indigenous knowledge on the other hand is based on trial and error and experience. Western knowledge is developed at universities , colleges and private firms. Indigenous knowledge is transferred orally from generation to generation. Although indigenous knowledge was not developed scientifically it has however sustained indigenous people over many centuries. Western knowledge is documented and everybody who can read and write can access it on his/ her own. Indigenous knowledge on the other hand is transferred through oral media. This places western knowledge at an advantage over indigenous knowledge because it can be subjected to critical analysis and developed further. Indigenous knowledge on the other hand does not enjoy the same privilege because it is not documented. Western knowledge has been undergoing development in leaps and bounds while indigenous knowledge remained stagnant. However this does not mean that the two knowledge systems cannot work to gather to fill-in gaps that exist in mainstream knowledge. 60 pp. Englisch.
