Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware -This book deals with the basic principles of bioenergetics. I have not only attempted to simplify the various concepts of thermodynamics in this book but also put together various topics in bioenergetics, which are normally discussed in many biochemistry textbooks in bits and under different sections and subheadings thus making the understanding and appreciation of the subject very difficult for students. My strongest desire is to make bioenergetics more accessible to students.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware -This study, through its sharia objective (Maqasid) analysis, presents a holistic view to understand the terrorist ideology in order to immunize the youth against it. By using the analytical scientific approach, which is based on the derivation and deduction of information from its primary sources, the author addresses the following issues: Firstly, the contradiction of the terrorist thoughts and beliefs with the objectives of sharia provided by the five schools of Islamic Jurisprudence.

Thirdly, the various means to immunize the youth against terrorist thought, including: a warm and appropriate family life, which in turn protects the children from strange violent beliefs, as well as providing support, warmth and ongoing companionship to the child within the family; educational institutions should immunize young people against any terrorist thought through choosing qualified teachers and focusing on the content of the curricula as well as making the role of the school effective in community service.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 64 pp. Englisch.

It is as good as casting a bomb shocking the global energy situation. ¿Oil Supply Crucially Related to National Energy Security: oil is the most important energy use and energy trade transaction accounted for two-thirds in the world. As the US itself has abundant oil and gas reserves, there is no need for the development of clean energy, since it would lead the US to deteriorate the dependence on imported oil and sometimes involve in the overseas geopolitical disputes. ¿US LNG Export - The Major Gamble in 21th Century: thanks to the shale oil and gas revolution success, the United States has become a net oil and natural gas exporter. However, the development in LNG (liquefied natural gas) export industry needs expensive investment. LNG lacks the price advantage, compared to pipeline gas. The LNG export is a big gamble for the US energy industry.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 76 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware -This book wants to contribute to the upgrade of current decision-making and decision-making support tool sets. Decision makers have been always searching for comprehensive situational awareness.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware -One hundred two cross sections of thoracic and lumbar spines at the base and at half the length of each (76 years old male, 63 years old male, 74 years old female) were examined with respect to x-ray density. The distribution of x-ray density was recorded using the computer densitometry. The density distribution was displayed in 10 colors and density level, as a graphical two-dimensional image. An irregular distribution of density on the sections plane was found. The higher density levels lied at the cranial and caudal edge. Between zones of less density. This distribution complies with the stress diagram which would beg to bending stress in sagittal level. By evaluating the biomechanical literature (Pawels 1948, 1950,1954,1968 and Kummar 1960, 1962, 1972, 1987), one comes to the conclusion that at least the spines of the human thoracic and lumbar are adjusted at a bending stress and in this manner were also stressed in life time. Functional adaptation of the bone on its mechanical stress is reached by several factors of bone materials at the same time.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 64 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware -We managed to clarify the time and localization of the main stages of the pigs¿ embryonal erythropoiesis. Our study showed that in the pigs¿ embryogenesis the first are formed an intraembryonic zone of hematopoietic cell localization, which includes the paraaortic mesenchyme and AGM-region. Hematopoietic foci are found from 13-15 days, then gradually decreasing to 25 days and disappear by 35 days of gestation. Extraembryonic yolk sac hematopoiesis also occurs in the early stage of gestation, where similar to the intraembryonic hematopoiesis are formed - blood islands. We have shown that the liver of pig embryos is formed on the 15th day and the hematopoiesis in it begins to develop from the 20th day of gestation. The liver is more leading organ of embryonic erythropoiesis in porcine, compared to another mammalian, the single erythroblastic islands of the liver are also preserved after the birth. After 65 days of pregnancy, hematopoiesis in porcine liver gradually disappeared and replaced by the bone marrow. For the first time erythroblastic islands of the liver and mechanisms of regulation of prenatal erythropoiesis of the pigs have been studies.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 72 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware -'Male domination is an inseparable phenomena with the human history. The shackles have only been strengthened with the prevalence of feudal era. Legal parlance being a reflection of the society at large in a micro form is no departure from the chronic practice. The dictum of patriarchy has long been the call of the profession wherein no feminine insinuation would be tolerated. Any attempt by any woman to annihilate such unwritten aphorism would be hard done by primitive ammunitions of criticism, discouragement accompanied with severe decrier sufficient enough to eradicate the optimist frondeur from the field. The work of the author is an endeavor to decode the painstaking efforts taken by class of women to dismantle the stereotypes and disarm the patriarchy in the legal parlance and the consequences thereof. The study reflects of vivid idea of the obstacles faced by females in the legal profession in the High Court at Calcutta and is a candid fervor of how successful they are to dismantle the patriarchy in the legal profession.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware -Shopping centers are very carefully planned far before they are even constructed. Even though their main purpose is enabling the consumer to spend their resources in the shopping center they very soon assume an important social role in their community. If this social role really exists, and if it is proven important, it is not to be neglected in the planning phase. If that is so, it should not only influence the architecture or all the visual appearance planning but even more so the tenant mix. Since the tenant mix is the essence of any shopping center, its social role is an important factor to consider.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 64 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware -This study describes how to manage internet clients of an ISP with PPPoE and MikroTik, using freeRadius for centralized AAA (Authentication, Authorization and Accounting). It is based on the work done at AlbaniaOnline ISP (now called Primo). The aim was to give PPPoE service to the internet clients, through MikroTik. This is not difficult and can be implemented easily, however we would like to use freeRadius for AAA, so that we could keep the data of the clients and their settings in a database. MikroTik should be just a dummy box with a simple configuration, so that we can throw it away and replace it by another one at anytime. All the client data (username, password, connection settings etc.) should be stored in the freeRadius database. If they are in a database the client data can be managed easily by an external application as well (by integrating the freeRadius database with the application).Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 80 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware -This book presents a magic number of 341 aphorisms: that is, short, sometimes terse sayings embodying some kind of general truth about music. A small number of the aphorisms are direct quotations from musical thinkers. However, most are paraphrased to place them into a more contemporary context. The book¿s purpose is not to present the aphorisms as 'the' truth about music, but 'a' truth, which may be contestable. As such, each aphorism may generate reflection and debate. The book is arranged in nine chapters, loosely ordered to move from a general reflection on thinking and perception in the arts towards specifically musical or compositional observations and then on to a wider, more inclusive view.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 88 pp. Englisch.
