Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Malaria is one of the leading causes of deaths in Africa. Malaria parasites can cause extreme forms that affect the brain, lungs, heart or kidney. Malarial deaths are often caused by the development of secondary health issues that may not have occurred had the person not contracted malaria in the first place. These include anaemia, an enlarged spleen or other nutrition-deficiency-related indicators. Malaria is a mosquito-borne disease. The mosquito acts as a carrier, or vector, that allows the parasite to infect humans. The genus of mosquito that carries the malaria parasite is known as the Anopheles mosquito. There are a huge number of species within this genus that act as malaria vectors. It is the female insect that carries the parasite and transmits Plasmodium to a human host in its saliva. It's specifically the female mosquito that transmits the disease because they require a blood meal to help with the production of a clutch of eggs. Our concepts are constantly evolving. We hope this work will be one aspect of benefit for humanity, also this work reviews all that is related to malaria as a disease and its causes and control. 76 pp. Englisch.…

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Women who engage in acts of violence expose the complex nexus, norms, expectations, and assumptions that operate within the performance of femininity, and make audible the deafening silence regarding the disjuncture of traditional gender roles. Using content analysis, this dissertation examines the trajectory that some women follow in becoming terrorists. This is done by identifying certain radicalizing elements that may act as tipping points in the process of an individual embracing violence. Following a theoretical review of some of the most pivotal publications that have attempted to define the term terrorism, this book provides an in-depth analysis of two variables that typify most female suicide bombers. By looking at the issues of rape, revenge and despair, the author determines how intense feelings of injustice, humiliation, trauma, the need for identity, and the need for belonging may translate into sources of motivation that bring women to commit terrorist-related attacks. 84 pp. Englisch.…

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -The literature of the 'contact zone' has been approached in literary criticism quite a lot, but this book is concerned with the narrative style of Arab, Women, postcolonial writers, selecting Leila Aboulela's The Translator and Ahdaf Soueif's The Map of Love as a case study. It analyses the East-West encounter in the two narratives using a feminist, postcolonial, literary, linguistic approach. The study employs the analysis of characterisation in terms of voice(s) and viewpoint as analytical linguistic framework. The study concludes that though objectivity is a pointless aim, it is attempted by both novelists in two different styles. The two novels employ different voices in their representation, whether in representing the oriental Self or the occidental Other. Although the novelists differ in their narrative style, they share the aim of reforming the deformed image of the Orient to which they belong. 64 pp. Englisch.…

This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -The phagocytic activity and the respiratory burst of WBCs were assayed using luminol amplified-Chemiluminescence (LA-CL) of whole blood using an ultra-sensitive multi purpose photon counting system. The induced chemiluminescence (CL) signals were acquired, graphed and interpreted to give a clear statistical view about WBCs kinetics and interactions. For irradiation experiments a typical Geiger-Muller (G.M.) tube counter was used and calibrated using standard dose rate meters. For mice irradiation, a heavy shielded radioactive source brought and identified. Using the previously calibrated devices, exposure rates and absorbed dose profile were established. Two BALB/c mice groups were used, a control shielded from radiation, and irradiated was put for the calculated period to accumulate the dose. Mice were dissected for blood and bone marrow collection. Assays were done concerning viability, total and differential blood counting, CL assays were done firstly on whole blood to verify WBCs total reactive activity, reaction time, peak activity and secondly on bone marrow to evaluate the total reaction time, peak activity values, and the reactive activity per micro-liter unit. 124 pp. Englisch. …

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -The 20th century was a century of totalitarianism and genocide. In this work, I argue that there is a meaningful relationship between the two, namely by applying Hannah Arendt's theory of totalitarianism to the Anfal (literaly ''spoils of war'') and Ba'athism in Iraq, they offer the example of the relationship between genocide and totalitarianism. This should bring about a better understanding of the features and motivations of a totalitarian genocide. A major finding of this book is that genocide is a function of totalitarianism. 80 pp. Englisch.…

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -The term Torsion appears after publishing general theory of relativity (theory of Gravity) by Albert Einstein. There were some attempts to integrate general relativity with the micro world through introducing Torsion. Einstein himself with Cartan, Sciama and Kibble all worked on extending the theory of general relativity. The idea first started from Elie Cartan, 1922. In general relativity the torsion tensor, which is anti-symmetric part of affine connection vanishes. The attempt was to assume a non-vanishing anti-symmetric part of connection, which lead to introducing Torsion tensor which can be coupled to intrinsic spin (angular momentum) of matter. On the other hand, both Sciama and Kibble, 1960, worked on this idea independently, they come up with the same results which lead to publishing a new theory called ECSK theory. The word ECSK is composed of the first letters (E,C,S,K) of the name of the scientists, Einstein, Cartan, Sciam and Kibble, who contributed in composing this theory. 64 pp. Englisch.…

This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Although the global crisis was caused by a combination of asset price bubbles, mainly in the real estate sector and a credit bubble that led to excessive leverage. The multi- faceted nature of the way in which the crisis is affecting the globe puts into evidence its complexity. This is well-known. What is less well-known is that on both accounts the international relations were less affected by both 'bubble symptoms as much as the US. This fact can be illustrated by looking at indicators of other factors including the reality of international economy and the general frame work of the economies of each country. However, the effects and the degree of its impact are being diverse depending on each country and sector. It is hypothesized that: A- The US-originated financial crisis has spread throughout the world. B- Some countries including Iraq are barely integrated into the global financial system. The study falls in three parts containing six chapters. 60 pp. Englisch.…

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -This book tackles the question of Egyptians' (still in the making) translational model of democratic development and transition. This model challenges the notion of 'Arab exceptionalism' with its normative narratives of legitimacy and changing compatibility claims. The latter are structured in tune with America's conception of democracy, which according to Ido Oren 'are products, more than determinants of America's. foreign political relations' (Oren 147). More specifically, this model exposes the bias and theoretical lacuna in constitutional and political science theories, whose usage of ahistorical and decontextualized paradigm of civil-military relations demonizes the role of military in democratic transition and development, and disregards the specific history of Egyptian military and its role in state-building and preservation. 72 pp. Englisch.…

Khat is illegal in Sweden. Yet, findings of this study shows that in Sweden neighborhoods with growing Somali populations have significant number of khat users. Perceptions of these users vary from one user to another; some perceive that it is important to frame the khat in the community not as a drug problem but as a wider public health issue, while others argued that khat use has negative impact on integration issues in the new host country. Meanwhile, significant numbers of khat users view it as a social convention, promoting harmony and providing a forum for collective decision making. Generally, perception of users confirmed two major concerns; health issues and frequent familial discords attributed to usage of khat. 76 pp. Englisch.…

This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -The purpose of this research is to undertake an investigation into the challenges facing women in the accounting profession, through the provision of a new case study of developing countries such as Saudi Arabia. In addition, it aims to explore how these challenges might affect the decisions of female accountants to stay or to progress in the accountancy sector. This research is based on an extensive literature review and semi-structured interviews with a sample of accounting women from different sizes of firms in the commercial private sector. The findings show that the interviewees share with other women around the word a certain amount of difficulty in reaching the highest levels of hierarchy, especially with the long hours involved in working in their jobs. However, unlike some female accountants elsewhere in the world, they live in a society where they are viewed negatively, since they work in a mixed environment business where there is only a segregated education culture and there is no choice in taking on part-time work, both of which are also considered as key barriers. The results of this study present new interpretations of female accountants in Saudi Arabia. 64 pp. Englisch.…

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Catalysts have been used commercially for more than a century, dating from the Deacon and contact processes, first used in the late of 19th century. Catalysis thus has a strong impact on the global economy and the economy of developing countries. Catalysis can be generally classified to two main categories; homogeneous and heterogeneous catalysis. Heterogeneous catalysis is largely an empirical science, more of an art than a science, and a large amount of knowledge in this field is empirical. This book is focusing on studying the different series of modified tin oxide catalysts which have been reported recently to find wide technical applications as catalysts with novel activity and selectivity in organic synthesis, petrochemical industries, and pollution control. This study was to prepare new solid acid catalysts depending on tin oxide. In addition, investigating the surface and bulk characteristics of these catalysts, in order to understand the role of sulfate and copper that added onto tin oxide. Moreover, the acidity and catalytic activity of the acid sites exposed on the catalysts and the origin of the strong acidity are also investigated. 96 pp. Englisch.…

This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Out of eagerness to know the reason of casting molten copper on blocks of iron, the story of Zulkarnain, is the real reason behind my choice of this topic. There is also strong correlation between the Qur'anic descriptive forms and the two sciences mathematics and geometry. There is no doubt that the story of Zulkarnain and Gog and Magog and the building of the landfill occupied the work of many Hadith interpreters and biography writers. I read literature about this Qur'anic story from an architectural perspective, regarding the landfill plates and the reason why molten copper was casted upon iron to form the so-called periodical plates. The Holy Quran uses accurate scientific language and precise linguistic expressions. I hope that my research is of good use to all and my apologies for any omissions therein. However, what comforts me most is that I exerted all my efforts to reach a high degree of perfection, knowing that perfection is only for Almighty alone and I always seek his help for success. 88 pp. Englisch.…
