It has been estimated that one third of the people on the planet have been infected with Mycobacterium tuberculosis.The World Health Organization estimated that at least 180 million children aged less than 15 years were infected with Mycobacterium tuberculosis worldwide.The infection is almost exclusively transmitted through air from patients with pulmonary disease. The risk of transmission is greatest if the index case is 'sputum smear positive', and is directly proportional to the bacillary density in respiratory secretions.Children in contact with adult patients are at highest risk of getting infected, and hence contact screening is important for early detection of transmission of infection. This is of great value not only to detect infected individuals but for the community as a whole, because a child with tuberculosis represents recent and ongoing transmission of infection within the community.As pediatrician it is our duty to reach to the base of ice berg i.e. the children's pool of tuberculosis lying in the siblings of family. 108 pp. Englisch.

As stimuli of innovation the key to funding innovative companies lies in the hands of governments and policy makers. Policy makers have the ability to steer the right funds to the appropriate parties and people on the one hand. The government has the toolkit to amplify opportunities for angel funding, increasing networks for start-up firms, and capital investments from third parties on the other hand. Shifting government policy towards a more investor-friendly environment helps emerging businesses receive funding more easily, and effectively. This induces substantial cost savings for governments, while stimulating the economy at the same time. This paper explores the ways business angels are related to the creation of innovation and specifically the importance of angel funding to national and worldwide economies. 64 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -The effects of equity foreign investors trading on emerging markets are controversial. Foreign investors are often blamed to bring instability, by entering and exiting emerging markets in herds, and also using positive feedback trading strategies, i.e., buying after a market rise, and selling after a market decline. On the other hand, foreigners also bring benefits like greater risk sharing and higher market liquidity. This book empirically analyzes the behavior of foreign investors on emerging equity markets in a cross-country setting. Tests of feedback trading and herding are performed in a sample of 14 emerging markets from 2000 to 2005. The book also investigates whether these investors produce positive or negative effects on local markets. This analysis tries to understand the behavior and effects of foreign investors on emerging markets and thus may help regulators while deciding about restrictions imposed to equity foreign investors. It may also shed a light on the long-term dynamics of foreigners trading, which can be useful for anyone who wants to better comprehend how local and foreign investors interact on emerging markets. 84 pp. Englisch.

Unfortunately, little is known about the nurses' experience of violence. This research was undertaken to explore accounts of workplace violence so as to make the dimensions of the nurses' experience visible and more fully understood. In this study, the nurses' experience of workplace violence emerged as a highly complex entity, deeply embedded in relationships and context. How nurses' perceive the contextual factors of the organization, their immediate work environment and their individual attributes were found to play a significant role in how they respond to the phenomenon. This research demonstrates a need to re-think how we address workplace violence in nursing, including organizational policy, governing structures, culture and climate of practice environments and the role education programs have in preparing nurses to manage this difficult problem. 156 pp. Englisch.

For a while now, I have found that certain styles in this category of footwear are missing in the medium price segment in the Netherlands. When traveling to other countries like the UK, the USA and Spain it has proven to be far easier to find this type of footwear at prices in the medium segment. I was curious if other women in the Netherlands experienced the same problem and decided to research this as a thesis subject. After researching the footwear market from both a consumer and professional point of view, it appeared that there was a demand for the feminine and highly fashionable footwear I find lacking in the Dutch market. The concept, sales and marketing plan for a footwear brand, that offers feminine and highly fashionable footwear in the Netherlands, is described in this book. 116 pp. Englisch.

This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Based on the GT-Power software, an engine cycle simulation for a biodiesel fueled direct injection compression ignition engine has been developed and used to study its performance and emission characteristics. The major objectives are to establish the engine model for simulation and then apply the model to study the biodiesel fueled engine and compare it to a petroleum-fueled engine. The engine model has been developed corresponding to a 4.5 liter, John Deere 4045 four-cylinder diesel engine. Submodels for flow in intake/exhaust system, fuel injection, fuel vaporization and combustion, cylinder heat transfer, and energy transfer in a turbocharging system are combined with a thermodynamic analysis of the engine to yield instantaneous in-cylinder parameters and overall engine performance and emission characteristics. At selected operating conditions, effect of engine performance and emission on engine load/speed, injection timing/pressure, EGR level, and compression ratio have been investigated. Variations in cylinder pressure, ignition delay, bsfc, and nitric oxides emissions have been determined for both a biodiesel fueled engine and a conventional diesel fueled engine. 100 pp. Englisch.

In relation to its environment, Sufis entered into the political arena and encourage the people to protest colonial domination. This also happened in Aceh, an area located in the northern part of Sumatra Island, Indonesia. This book tries to trace positive relationship between Sufism and the strong spirit of the Acehnese against the colonial imperialism which was approved by long holy war (1873-1942). This book elaborates three important aspects in detail. First, analyzing the Achehnese practice Sufism during the war with the Dutch. Second, interpreting the important role of Sufism in the context of strong protest to the Dutch colonial administration. Third, analyzing some factors that influenced the Achehnese to perform holy war. By analyzing the Sufi tradition, political protest, and local culture, this book is very useful for those who are interested in studying Islam, history, and cultural anthropology. 60 pp. Englisch.

In many cases the rate is sufficiently slow that the resulting effect is an extended or sustained release over many hours.Further modification can be achieved by the use of coatings that restrict the release, or control the site of release.Examples of drugs where this technique is currently used include dextromethorphan(coated),diclofenac, and nicotine. The resinate will be a solid, with similar characteristics to the original ion exchange resin powder and, as such, can be formulated into any of the traditional solid dosage forms.Time Release Technology also known as Sustained-release (SR), extended-release (ER, XR, or XL), time-release or timed-release, controlled-release (CR), or continuous-release (CR or Contin) pills are tablets or capsules formulated to dissolve slowly and release a drug over time. The advantages of sustained-release tablets or capsules are that they can often be taken less frequently than instant-release formulations of the same drug, and that they keep steadier levels of the drug in the bloodstream 88 pp. Englisch.

However, its distinctness lies in the flourishing of a female canon led by Alice Childress and Lorainne Hansberry in mid 1900's, which is continued today in the works of many contemporary dramatists such as Adrienne Kennedy and Ntozake Shange, who have taken on the task of giving voice to the two times suppressed black woman. Among these playwrights, Ntozake Shange has been the most strikingly original one since her search for identity is integrated into her writing in terms of both content and form. While she experiments on the smallest segments of her individual and collective self, her writing transcends over rules of language as well as genre. It does not suffice to say her writing reflects a search for identity as what she experiences is a quest for authenticity. 84 pp. Englisch.

It proceeds from the EARM in Rwanda, then Uganda, later Kenya and Njukiini Parish, in particular, where it lays more emphasis on. In attempting to tackle these challenges, the book demonstrates, eventually, that the revivalists' concerns in our contemporary world can be surmounted. While appreciating the critical role of revivalists in the growth of the church, throughout the history of Christianity, the book cautions on the danger of pushing the quest for 'rebirth' too far - as both wheat and tares belong to God. In other words, the fear of schism brought about by radical revivalists' positions need to be treated as a serious concern. The book is a must read for historians, church planters, students of theology and general readership as it helps one to appreciate the strength and weaknesses of revivalism today. 72 pp. Englisch.

Refugee children are particularly vulnerable because not only are they faced by these forces, but they are also dislocated from their homes of origin. As a result of this dislocation,most refugee children occupy an indefinite space'- a psychological state of waiting for life to become normal again. For refugee children, the sense of identity largely associated with geographical locatedness and permanence is dismantled by the reality of living in that space' between their home country and the hoped for future resettlement country or a future return to the original home country or perhaps integration and settling in the host country. A pertinent question that arises from the above situation is how refugee children perceive their identity in such circumstances. This book therefore examines how refugee children use personal oral narratives to construct their identity within the context of globalization. This book should be of interest to literary scholars especially those interested in narrative studies. Professionals dealing with refugee children should also find it of interest. 64 pp. Englisch.

Yet he also developed close relationships with a number of musicians and may have been influenced by their advice when writing for their instruments. This work examines Beethoven's relationship with the clarinet. The book begins by studying the history of the clarinet to place in context the stage of development reached during the time Beethoven was writing his symphonies. It also traces the role the clarinet had played up to that point within the orchestra. It then focuses on the clarinettists known to have associated with Beethoven, before moving to an indepth study of the clarinet parts in the symphonies themselves. This examination highlights the changing role of the clarinet through the nine symphonies and refers to their suitability for the type of instrument existing at the time. 96 pp. Englisch.

The study was performed for a period of twelve weeks and after teaching a topic for about four weeks, a posttest was given each time. In addition to the usual classroom lessons and practical, the slow learning group was treated with a number of activities . The pre-test result and some education determinants showed that, the two groups were comparable before the administration of the treatment respectively. The test scores for the post test collected were used for data analysis and testing of the hypothesis. The hypothesis was tested and drawn at 0.05 levels significant. The t-test for two independent groups' results showed that physics can be taught effectively to the slow learning group by the introduction of an interesting, understandable and useful programme. 72 pp. Englisch.

That is why specialists from such spheres of knowledge about man as philosophy, methodology, psychology, sociology, pedagogy, etc., are interested in studying it. This book provides a brief presentation of the concepts of five renowned authors from the 20th century whose ideas are topical even today: John Dewey, Lev Vygotsky, Vladimir Lefebvre, Georgii Shchedrovitsky, Donald Schön. The author provides an answer to the following questions: What was the context in which the concepts of these authors about this mental phenomenon unfolded How did their students and adherents enrich and develop the ideas about reflection in the sphere of education Can the different understandings of reflection be integrated and reflected in a unified pedagogical model (reflective approach) which could serve as a reference point for realizing reflective pedagogical practice The description of the reflective approach to education could be seen as an invitation to other authors to build a pedagogical model of reflective pedagogical practice together with the author of this book. 120 pp. Englisch.

As professional communicators, broadcasters are expected to be proficient in the use of intonation as what matters in verbal communication is not what you say but how you say it. This work examines some Nigerian broadcasters' mastery of English intonation patterns to find out their awareness of the functions of intonation in effective communication and the extent to which intonation affects their dissemination of information to the audience. The analysis of the data for the study reveals that they were deficient in the use of English intonation as the incorrect intonation patterns used by them adversely affected their effective dissemination of information to the audience. The work therefore concludes that the selected broadcasters were generally poor in the use of English intonation for effective communication. This book is a good reference material for all researchers and students who are interested in the use of English intonation in Nigeria, and indeed West Africa, as broadcasters are often looked up to as models, worthy of emulation, in matters of appropriate language use. 76 pp. Englisch.

Practical studies conducted by using different variables and in different cultures revealed the effectiveness of Filial Therapy. This study aims to examine the effects of a Mother Training Program Based on Filial Therapy on the interaction between mothers and their children. It is an experimental study based on the pretest, posttest, follow-up test model with experimental, placebo and control groups. Data were obtained by using the Parent-Child Relationship Scale, mothers' relationships definitions and video-recordings of interviews during which mothers evaluated the training program. As a result of the analyses performed in all three groups, a meaningful improvement was seen in the relationships of experimental group mothers with their children 68 pp. Englisch.

Debussy spent the three summers of 1880, 1881, and 1882 with von Meck's family as a piano instructor and a pianist for the trio in residence. His Russian trips as well as the World Expositions of 1889 and 1900 in Paris greatly contributed to Debussy's knowledge and appreciation of the Russian music of The Five. The composers of The Five: Milii Balakirev, Nikolai Rimsky- Korsakov, Alexander Borodin, Modest Mussorgsky, and Cesar Cui, made a collective contribution to the Russian Style designed to oppose the Western tradition in music. Russian gestures, developed and established as essential in the style of The Five, are reflected in a number of Debussy's piano and vocal compositions. Some of the gestures did not have a lasting effect and gradually disappeared in later works; others remained and became essential features of Debussy's compositional writing. 120 pp. Englisch.
