Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware -The objective of this study was to evaluate different systems of sea water desalination by microorganisms from the inoculum of the bacteria Pseudomonas stutzeri. The use of bamboo, of the species Bambusa tuldoides, as a support medium for microorganisms in the systems was also evaluated, since bamboo has starch in its composition, favoring the cultivation of Pseudomonas stutzeri. In the present work, nine different reactors were constructed, varying the concentration of the bacteria, the availability of oxygen, the hydraulic holding time (TDH) and the volume of sea and bamboo water. Water samples were collected from the sea that bathes the coast of Campeche, Florianópolis (SC), Brazil. The parameters analyzed were: electrical conductivity, pH, apparent color, turbidity and chlorides.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware -The history of Russian philosophy of the twentieth century is the arena of struggle between representatives of many different areas of thought. In this context, the reconstruction of the biography and ideological heritage of Sergei Nikolaevich Durylin - archaeologist, ethnographer, historian of literature, theatre and painting, religious writer, priest and philosopher, gives a full picture of the complex fate of Russian intelligentsia on the broken epochs, during the collapse of the Russian Empire and at the same time the formation and development of the Soviet state. The philosophical reflections of the thinker are a vivid example of the continuity and refraction of the spiritual tradition of the Silver Age in the nascent intellectual trends of the second half of the twentieth century, and allow us to analyze historically deterministic features of the spiritual experience of the creators of cultural heritage of that time. The reader is presented with a bright, talented and extremely interesting thinker who expresses his original vision of general philosophical problems, which for a long time did not deserve the attention of historians of Russian philosophy and culture.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 64 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware -There is still no clear boundary between free phrases and phraseological units. There are countless intermediate cases between the extremes of full motivation and the variety of word components and the lack of motivation combined with the full stability of lexical components and grammatical structure. This paper offers a cognitive perspective on considering the phraseomatic meaning. The aim of this paper is to reconstruct the conceptual organization of phraseomatic meaning on the example of English verb-name phraseomatic word combinations. In turn, the identification of the conceptual organization is a stage in determining the functional and cognitive potential of the language units under consideration. According to onomasiological interpretation of the definitions of phraseomatic word combinations, verb units identify the concept, and other words and labels identify the features of this concept. The analysis carried out in this monograph shows that the three types of conceptual features participate differently in forming the structure of English verb-name phraseomatic word combinations.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 60 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware -The Ministry of Education of Russia sees one of the ways to improve the efficiency of the educational process in modern Russian schools in the development of extracurricular education system through elective and elective courses. The elective courses, in addition to teaching and research activities, may include elements of scientific-research work, and in this regard, it is important for a teacher to choose a topic, direction in which students could work. One of such directions is the least studied in the physiology of plant growth and development problems of dormancy and seed germination. It is known that the hormonal system of plants regulates such important processes as seed formation, their transition to dormancy, seed emergence from dormancy (Obrucheva, 2012). There is no doubt that gibberellins, auxins and cytokinins play an important role in some stages of seed formation (Nefedyeva, 2013). It is also established that these hormones and abscisic acid regulate the process of seed germination (Kefeli, 1989). According to M. G. Nikolaeva, the hormone whose content determines the transition of seeds to the dormant state and their exit from it is indolylacetic acid.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 96 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware -There is no consensus among instrumentalists on the origin of the modern harp. Some believe it originated in the Mediterranean. Others believe the harp came from the northern Urals through the Baltics, Scandinavia and Celtic countries to central and southern Europe. More questions arise about the origin of the harp's name. In the article the author attempts to explain how its name arose among various European nations from a description of the manner in which the instrument is played. The musical history of Russia is rich in facts, which until now have remained little known even to specialists. Information from archival sources about constant contacts between the best musicians in Europe and wide circles of Russian music lovers can change an idea of the level of general and musical culture in the country, even in such a narrow field as that of harpists touring.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 76 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware -The present contribution deals with the organizational behavior within the scope of tax planning, emphasizing especially the management options in view of the instruments made available to companies by the legislator, both at national and international levels. Thus, we emphasize the study of tax planning as a management tool, that is, as a perfectly legitimate means; and not as a tool of abuse or even tax evasion. Throughout the preparation of our work we verified that the Portuguese tax system encourages/potentiates some tax planning practices, when used with legitimate purposes, or if the legislator did not grant deductions to the tax collection, exemptions and tax benefits, for example.The major contribution of our work in academic, scientific and practical terms is a careful analysis of the state of the art in the doctrine, accompanied by an in-depth study of the various tax codes, so that, fundamentally, managers may be provided with valid information that enables the best management options regarding tax planning intra legem.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 100 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware -This book presents a comparison of the mineralization of water that has circulated at the contact of basalts and basement formations. The results of the study are derived from morpho-structural, petrographic and hydrogeochemical approaches. The Koutaba sector has a dominance of basalts composed of olivine, clinopyroxene, plagioclase and opaque oxides, put in place through faults of major directions: N10-20°E, N60-70°E and N130-140°E. However, the Bapa sector is dominated by granite composed of biotite, mega crystals of alkaline feldspar, quartz, accessory minerals (apatite and zircon) and oxide, of general structural orientation NE-SW, N30-40°E, N130-140°E.The alkaline (Na, K), alkaline earth (Mg) elements and the total mineralization rate make it possible to differentiate the waters flowing through basalts and granites. The waters on basalt have a geochemical background dominated by Ca-Mg-Na-HCO3-SO4 with a relatively high total mineralization while the waters on granite are dominated by Ca-Na-K-HCO3-SO4 in addition to being characterized by low mineralization.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 120 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware -India attracts interest not only as a country that attracted in the past centuries, like a magnet, with its natural treasures and unique culture, not only as one of the centers of economic development of the modern multipolar world. It is of considerable scientific interest to find out the reasons for the victory in the middle of the last century in the struggle for liberation from colonial oppression over the superior, both military and technically, enemy that dominated India for more than two centuries. It was this victory that created the prerequisites for the transformation of the Indian economy into one of the fastest growing in the world, and the way to achieve it - the idea of non-violent resistance, developed on the basis of the Hindu worldview of Mahatma Gandhi - has inspired many political movements of the XX century. The author's attempt to understand Indian culture from the inside, while presenting the results in the framework of Western European scientific tradition, gives the work a special interest, inviting the reader to dialogue and discussion on the complex and topical issues of modern dynamic society.
