Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware -Fertilizers being the costliest inputs, the scientific approaches towards precision Horticulture would imply the use of nutrients according to the actual needs of the soil and crop situations. Geo-spatial techniques thus have much to offer for preparing spatial soil and leaf nutrient maps. Nutrient indexing and mapping using such techniques have shown highest spatial variation in soil pH, EC, OC (%) and bio-available N, P, Ca, Mg, Cu, Zn and Mo contents and leaf nutritional status indicated deficiencies of N, K, Ca, Cu, Zn and B in apple orchards. Spatial variability in orchards soil and apple leaf nutrients indicated a strong need for the development of site- specific recommendations to improve and sustain yield as well as quality of apple. Once the maps are created, it is possible to transform the information from Soil Plant Test Crop Response models into spatial fertilizer recommendation maps. The application of fertilizer on the basis of spatial variability maps will not only reduce the cost of inputs for targeted yield(s) but also help in the balanced fertilizer application that will lead to better soil health, quality of produce and sustainability of production system.…

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware -This book focuses on finding out what Internet Of Things (IoT) applications developers need to have in mind while developing IoT applications. The IoT applications are made and used by the people. And therefore it is important to consider the users and how to facilitate their understanding of the IoT applications with little or no help from the outside. Currently we live in a world that moves so fast that we have got no time to even ask our neighbor for help. Therefore the user requirements concentrate on the fact of making the user do everything from operating to maintenance of the IoT application without outside help in the fastest manner possible. I hope this book is beginning of research focusing on user requirements for IoT application as they are too many to be exhausted by just one book.…

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Every government aims to promote the health of its citizens; the proportion of the gross domestic product allocated to health proves the importance of the citizens' health. However, promoting health is not only about the amount of money. Other factors, such as epidemiological indicators, political priorities and available resources, should be considered in planning health promotion. To promote health, an essential approach is multi-sectorial communication, which this book will discuss. Therefore, science must interact and generate accurate specialties that clarify the role of these interactions, such as health economics. This book is a guide to view health from different perspectives. Viewing health from various perspectives enables readers to understand the role of each health factor, leading to better health planning. In this book, the role of economics on health and its link with disease level will be examined. This book will also discuss the potential of utilising economics as a tool to promote health, reducing the disease level in communities and improving the quality of life. 64 pp. Englisch.…

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Current decline in competitiveness of many highly developed capitalist countries with innovation-driven economy stimulates scientists to find explanations for this by rethinking territory development's conceptual framework. The author suggests to withdraw from the quantitative understanding of this phenomenon which is specifically restricted to economics, that is, to replace an evolutionary (quantitative) paradigm of territory development by a pluralistic (qualitative) one, which considers the existence of different 'developments' - instead of one quantitative path of territory development - in the global world. The main focus and aim of any territory development are not the production of more goods and services (which in many cases are 'antigoods' and 'antiservices'), but the 'production of quality people' on this territory. So called 'civilization diseases' make us question the efficiency of the use of resources by people and sustainability of the progress in so called 'developed' countries - those ones with a high income level which have chosen a development path based on a market economy and consumers' society - as well as about their further growth capacity. 72 pp. Englisch.…

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Terrorist acts are often followed by lengthy media reports that discuss their dramatic elements, motivations and consequences. Focusing on terrorism within the Western world, this work examines the fundamentally controversial relationship between terrorism and the mass media. Claims that the relationship is 'symbiotic' (Cooper 1976, Wilkinson 1997) are explored, as well as the political, social and psychological effects that these portrayals can trigger. This analysis is then followed by a case study into how two Spanish broadsheets reported on the Madrid 2004 train bombings throughout the two weeks following the attack, in order to further delve into the polemic relationship. The concluding section argues that the media should never portray terrorism in a way that could harm its intended public, and that therefore certain safeguards are required. 60 pp. Englisch.…

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -This study introduces a new international marketing concept: the country of export destination effect (COED) at a consumer level. The results of this study show that the COED influences domestic consumers' quality evaluation, preference, and purchase intention regarding a product manufactured domestically, but available both domestically and internationally. Specifically, consumers' product knowledge negatively moderates the COED effect on the quality evaluation of the car and mahogany furniture. This finding is similar to the halo effect in the country of origin (COO) literature. In addition, different export destinations have different effects on consumers' preference and purchase intention. In contrast to studies in the COO literature, this research demonstrates that nationalism and internationalism are positively related to the intention to purchase an exported product. Patriotism, however, is negatively related to the consumer's intention to purchase an exported product. 64 pp. Englisch.…

This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -The International Society on Scoliosis Orthopaedic and Rehabilitation Treatment (SOSORT) defines scoliosis as a three-dimensional deformity of the spine and trunk with a Cobb angle of 10 degrees or greater. Generally, different treatments would be provided for patients in accordance with the degree of the Cobb angle. Bracing treatment is mainly for patients who have a spinal curvature between 20 and 45 degrees. The braces are aim to correct scoliosis in three main planes and reduce its progression. Most traditional braces are rigid and made of thermoplastics and metals so that they are heavy and uncomfortable to wear. Their rigidity causes difficulties in donning the brace and interferes with typical activities in daily life. Thus, compliance with conventional bracing treatment is low. To overcome the current limitations of rigid braces, some innovative brace designs which focus on improving comfort and reducing restrictions of body movement are available. The aim of this book is to provide a review on the design features and materials used for the fabrication of these innovative types of braces. 64 pp. Englisch.…

This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Arab-Israeli disconnect is taking to long to reconnect and thereby defining world's disunity because not only are they from the same region but are also providers of Abrahamic religions - Islam, Christianity and Judaism. They are different ways to one and the same God. The paper therefore argues that the only and realistic path to world's religious unity is to democratize religion and allow votaries to choose any of the ways to one and only one indivisible God. This freedom of choice by votaries should be such that if votaries are no longer satisfied by any of the three ways to God, they should have freedom to switch to another without any molestation, attack or assassination. 56 pp. Englisch. …

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -The present study demonstrates the differences between Japanese and English tense variations in narratives. The focus is on the Japanese non-present tense in comparison to the English present tense, of which it is often considered an equivalent. The data consisted of oral narratives with conversational interaction from four Japanese students who are enrolled in a university in the United States and compared with published oral narratives in English. The study shows that non-past tense in Japanese occurs quite frequently in narratives despite the fact that the narratives are stories about past experiences. It is observed that the Japanese non-past tense is used in narratives to express general facts that are not only true at the moment of the story but also at the moment of speaking. This use of the non-past tense is found when the speaker gives background information or his or her opinions in the orientation portion of the discourse. A non-past tense referring to an event in the past appears frequently in subordinate clauses for semantic and structural reasons. 72 pp. Englisch.…
