Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware -This book offers a deeper and comprehensive understanding of the structural transformation process in Nigeria amid the changing dimensions of socio-economic globalization. It presents clear, concise and environment-specific measures of structural transformation in Nigeria using manufacturing and services value added. This was driven by the conventional path of structural change in economics literature which requires that countries transit from agriculture to productive manufacturing activities and end up in service-driven economy. The effectiveness of globalization from both economic and social lenses in driving the process of structural change received primary and adequate attention in this book. More so, deeper insights into key transformation plans and achievements of successive governments in Nigeria during military and civilian administrations were reviewed in this book. In addition to serving as a springboard for researchers, policy makers, corporate organizations and development partners across the globe, this book proffers a way forward for addressing the constraints that impair structural transformation in Nigeria.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 76 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware -This book is designed for engineers and scientists. It provides patented in Ukraine a new composition of alloy low hardenability steel and method for its composing. A book focuses on cardinal decreasing of alloy elements in material and increasing service life of machine components achievable due to intensive quenching (IQ) It is shown that during IQ process the high compressive residual stresses are formed on the surface of steel parts and super ¿ strengthening of material takes place that allows cardinal decrease of alloy elements in material. A fundamental correlation is proposed for designing of optimal hardenability steel depending on size and form of actual machine components. IQ process decreases distortion and corrosion of steel parts after hardening and eliminates quench crack formation. The technology is environment friendly since it uses plain water instead of oil and polymers as a quenchant.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 124 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware -During the Ukrainian crises in 2014 media debuted a new role in world affairs. Since then, the world is witnessing an information era that is captured hostage of a spin machinery that tries to weaponize media and design news in such a way as to possess the public's mind. The war of information that we have recently seen has shifted conflict to a new dimension where ideological confrontation prevails over physical or armed conflict, and rhetoric is protracted beyond diplomatic means of communication. In this information warfare, Russia perfectly hijacked news to the west by creating a news situation out of another one, which gave Russia more coverage to present its viewpoint to the western media and audience. Russiäs domestic system of information manipulation went global, and not only it disrupted western narratives but it also kept the viewers hooked and distracted. This book explores the Russian mediä conspiratorial approach to get news into the western media' agenda.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 80 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware -The durability of reinforced concrete structures is strongly dependent on the concrete cover of the steel and its thickness. Failure to obtain the right cover is the most influential factor in the premature corrosion of reinforcing steel, which in turn is the main pathway to the deterioration of these structures. Research indicates that the cover is not been fully obtained in the current building projects adopting this structural solution, indicating a chronic instead of a sporadic problem. The most exposed structural elements are the slabs and the bottom of the beams. Failure to obtain the minimum cover required by the standards is often attributed to the incorrect use of spacer elements. The lack of regulatory standards from a responsible technical body for the quality certification of these product and the lack of recommendations for their use and application are also factors that contribute to this technical negligence in several countries.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 64 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware -Some of the information technology trends suggest that gaps still exist between and within leaders, security professionals and technology professionals. These gaps are actually failures of these three groups to convince each other of the extent of the losses (costs) that could be incurred if they do not properly protect their resources or fail to choose to implement and maintain the technologies that their businesses require, which seems to be the main reason why legitimate individuals, organizations and governments are still losing many of their battles, and much of their money, to the ever-evolving cyber threats and ever-buggy software systems. We discuss the gaps that exist among leadership, technology professionals, and cybersecurity professionals. We then take a look at the options that leadership, cybersecurity professionals and technology professionals have to bridge these gaps today and in the future.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 56 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware -For the first time samples of the ecclesiastic writing are considered as part of Christian Church in the literary criticism according to the monograph ¿Early Christian Liturgy and Georgian Hagiography¿; this fact considerably increases their literary value and grants wider significance and conveys deep theological content for readers. Emergence of the Georgian ecclesiastical writings is related to the early epoch of spreading of Christianity. Therefore, canonic that was typical for the Christian Church of certain specific period should be taken into account during the research. Such Canonic had been also considered in hagiographical works. As it is known, the hagiographical works had always been created for reading in the churches. Praising of a saint, martyr used to conduct for strengthening belief of believers. At first, Christianity was a persecuted religion with small number of believers. Authors of hagiographic works aimed at strengthening their belief. Due to this, the main character of the hagiographical work was to be an ideal person for the rest of the Christians.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 60 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware -Shortly after the creation of the Niger Delta Development Commission, NDDC, to facilitate the speedy development of the well-endowed but highly beleaguered Niger Delta region of Nigeria, NDDC crafted a development strategy, named the Niger Delta Regional Development Master Plan (NDRDMP), to change the region by working in concert with a vast array of stakeholders. However, many years into its implementation, academia has, sadly, ignored the factors influencing NDDC¿s execution of this widely acclaimed development strategy that could produce the highly-desired change in the Niger Delta. Thus, strategic leaders of NDDC and other Niger Delta stakeholders are hamstrung by the lack of empirical data to understand and handle properly the factors influencing the NDRDMP execution. This book focuses on the NDRDMP as a change strategy and the desirability of its successful execution. It examines props and obstacles to execution of the NDRDMP and makes practical proposals, which should be helpful to all top executives and leaders with stakes in the Niger Delta, all participants in the intended review of the NDRDMP, strategy scholars and everyone else drawn to strategy execution generally.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 60 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware -The geological features of the Permo-Carboniferous glaciation are based on the same criteria as for the Quaternary glaciation. The author¿s many years of research have proved that the ¿exaration¿ types of the relief of the Quaternary fiords, skerries, lake basins in bedrock, drumlins, foreheads, polished rocks, furrows on bedrock ¿ all this formed by the disjunctive dislocations. They occupy their normal place in the ensemble of paragenetic structures that accompany faulting. Extremly favorable conditions for the development of terrestrial vegetation were created in the Carboniferous period. And the climate of the Permian period was generally the warmest of the formerly dominant Paleozoic. The results of the drilling land ice (up to subglacial surface) in Antarctica and Greenland are of special, unique importance. It turned out that instead of moraine-containing ice mass, as if filled with huge blocks and boulders,only inclusions of sandy-loamy and fine-earth substance are recorded in the continental ice. An important function of glaciers is the conservation of the subglacial geological-topographic surface.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 68 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware -This book interprets the concepts of stroke and the Balkans localities. The first five years of the prevention of CVD program in Novi Sad (1975-1979, CCCCP) proved the feasibility of a project well planned combining research and practical intervention. It emphasizes the promotion of CVD diagnosis and therapy, of early detection and treatment of the diseased and those at risk, as well as of long-term preventive measures aimed at improving lifestyles. At the Collaborating Center of the WHO MONICA project in Novi Sad, the research results of Stroke epidemiology during the period 1983 ¿1992 y. were successful, but the results of Stroke epidemiology later show that with the war in the neighboring countries, decrease of general life standard of population, and economic sanctions imposed by United Nations, this beneficial trend has reversed and rates have increased continually, especially after the NATO alliance aggression against Yugoslavia in 1999. The results of the WHO MONICA project in Novi Sad are undergoing the final analyses and tests of hypotheses, and they are published in the most reputable world medical journals.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 68 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware -The book contains four chapters. The first one deals with elementary problems of one dimensional quantum mechanics of scalar particles, and their solution is given by much more simpler method than in standard textbooks. Attention should be paid to problems with periodic potentials. In the second chapter methods of one-dimensional quantum mechanics are applied to three-dimensional scattering problems. Here a new approach to the dynamic diffraction theory based on multiple wave scattering method is proposed. Diffraction on a crystalline plane is solved exactly, and is shown to vanish in contradiction with experimental observations. In the third chapter, all the problems of the first one are generalized to spinor particles. The most interesting questions are related to polarization of particles and rotation of polarization by means of radio-frequency fields, which create superpositions of states with different energies and speeds. The fourth chapter is devoted to fundamental questions of quantum mechanics. The theory of 'weak measurements' is criticized. Some experiments related to wave packets and to determination of quantization axis of non polarized neutron beams are proposed.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 152 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware -Following the discursive approaches in Social Sciences, in particular in Social Psychology, two Major Critical Incidents in the Portuguese Revolution of 1974 are analysed in this essay. By studying the political rhetoric of the two major left wing parties, the Socialist Party and the Portuguese Communist Party, he tries to sort out the dividing lines in the left spectrum at the time, while also reflecting on today¿s status, where a political alliance allows a minority socialist government to rule the country, supported in parliament by the other left wing parties. This left coalition is implementing policies aimed at reversing the ultra-liberal policies imposed by the Troika and compounded by the previous neo-liberal government, whose premier intended to go ¿farther than¿ the Troika agenda. Such policies resulted in a serious impoverishment of the Country, precarious jobs, a massive emigration among the young, the privatisation of key economic sectors and of utilities and public services, such as the Portuguese Postal Service (Correios de Portugal). The author shares a final piece of reflection on the current alliance and of the Portuguese Left (namely the Socialist Party).Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 116 pp. Englisch.
