Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Our objective is to answer the question of understanding the phenomenon: 'Oil population but poor'. The oil exploitation lasts for decades while the region remains underdeveloped. This contrast is not explained by an exploitation based on production and not on distribution, opacity on the statistics of production and export, impossible traceability; this study shared with the oil operators of our region in order to obtain their opinions before its publication would just like to present the picture of the oil exploitation in our region, so that the men and women of good will who will read us help us to answer this dualism; because the extractive companies contribute to the creation of wealth in their countries, but we who possess oil, the various minerals remain poor and our environments underdeveloped. This contradiction will continue until when We welcome investors in our African countries, but we also know that these resources are exhaustible and therefore, it is necessary to convert them into wealth and to take advantage of them for the well-being of our communities and therefore, the reduction of poverty. 52 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -In the history of the built environment, certain phenomena often occur more or less homogeneously over long periods of time, so as to stabilise their subsequent development. Thus, in general, they may become predictable, even reassuring. More often, however, an event may create the conditions for accelerated and/or sudden changes. These, in turn, subject to chain reactions, will cause deviations in a development which, until then, seemed immutable. One example of these dynamics is given by the history of the 'trabocchi', wooden machines for coastal fishing. This study documents an important phenomenon that has marked the economy of the coastal populations and analyses some less explored constructive aspects (typologies, choice of materials, ways of assembling components, devices, maintenance procedures, adaptation to new uses, etc.). The volume gathers the results of a vast research conducted by the University of Florence (Department of Architecture). This extensive work is based on detailed survey campaigns and extensive documentation. 52 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -The author in the collection argues that in today's world the average person is as alienated as possible from the technologies of personal growth. A person feels that these personal technologies are somewhere nearby. Elites in a wide variety of countries, including Russia, can take advantage of personal growth opportunities themselves, while other people do not have the keys to it. The elites do not want everyone to connect with these personal growth resources. And our twenty-first century is providing these resources to everyone for the first time. If one begins to ascend and grow spiritually, everything will change: life, power, and the planet. The present collection can indicate ways of reflection on today's education, spiritual culture and technologies of personal growth, and therefore can be useful for philosophers, theologians, religious scholars, psychologists, teachers and all thinking people interested in technologies of personal growth. 88 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Protagoras said that man is the measure of all things existing and non-existing. This is the starting point of anthropocentrism in philosophy. It is possible to know the world by cognizing the inner world of man and the world of his senses. Aristotle used the concept of anthropology as a field of knowledge that studies the spiritual side of human nature. The closest to the Aristotelian interpretation is religious and philosophical anthropology, which studies man as a special kind of spiritual being.Research in spiritual anthropology, which combines religious and philosophical teachings, as well as psychohistory, puts emphasis on the inner world of man and the inner essence of human history related to this inner worldThe collection may be useful to philosophers, anthropologists, psychologists, historians, methodologists, and all thinking people interested in the life and prognosis of our civilization. 64 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Meningiomas, well known since the Cushing's monograph, are extra-parenchymal tumors, usually benign, which develop at the expense of arachnoid cells. Despite their potential to evolve locally and their slow growth kinetics, they can take on certain aspects of malignancy which still pose difficult, if not insoluble, problems for the neurosurgeon. Indeed, certain localizations and certain aspects of their evolution (recurrent, multiple or malignant meningiomas) sometimes represent a real challenge, posing difficult therapeutic problems with higher morbidity and mortality. Meningiomas are common, accounting for 15-20% of all primary brain tumors in adults. They are twice as common in women as in men, and increase in the second half of life, peaking in the fifth decade. There is no unambiguous clinical presentation, and the full range of intracranial neurological symptoms can be described, depending above all on the size and location of the tumor. 56 pp. Englisch.

This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -The general objective of this analysis is to analyze the effects of the increased savings rate on economic growth in Burkina Faso. In other words, the study aims to investigate the nature of the relationship between the savings rate and the growth rate. More specifically, the study seeks to determine the nature of : - the relationship between savings and investment in order to ensure the accumulation of capital, a source of national wealth; - the relationship between the investment rate and the growth rate. A study of the influence of the savings rate on economic growth in Burkina Faso is an unquestionable contribution to the debate on whether or not developing countries need to increase their savings rate in order to sustain wealth, so as to help them escape the underdevelopment trap. With a view to achieving the guiding principles of the SCADD and the WAEMU Stability, Growth and Solidarity Pact, the conclusions of this study could challenge policymakers to reorient economic policy. 52 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -The greatest environmental risk in offshore oil production lies in the upstream phase. That is, the stage at which the process of finding and extracting crude oil begins. But it can have less impact if the activity is well supervised and managed. In the process of oil exploitation, unregulated activities can at any time disrupt rich and sensitive marine ecosystems or undermine the fishing activities on which local fishermen depend. This recent oil discovery in the deep offshore Sangomar block comes at a time when scientific knowledge of the marine environment is very limited. Similarly, the implementation of appropriate technical measures to reduce environmental risk has yet to materialize. This being said, the State's capacity to monitor and ensure responsible environmental management remains weak. In this respect, the risk of negative impacts on the marine biodiversity on which fishing depends, in the face of the development of the oil project off the Petite Côte, merits particular attention from all stakeholders. 52 pp. Englisch.

This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Rationalisation aims to direct partners in order to minimise wastage of resources due to the co-presence of several of them on the same sites and in the same Health Zones (ZS). This process will take place in three stages: localisation in a site by the end of 2015, zonalisation by 2016 and finally provincialisation by the end of 2018. Important steps have been taken to manage the transition smoothly, including the preparation of transition plans in the Provincial Health Divisions (DPS), with the involvement of the ZSs concerned, and the establishment of a buffer stock to manage any stock shortages. Finally, an agreement between the PNLS and the main partners was signed to sanction the redistribution of the ZS to the support partners. A number of lessons were learned from this process, including the leadership of the NACP, which was the driving force behind it, the support of the partners who adhered to the NACP's vision, the establishment of a framework for partner consultation on the NACP and, finally, the anticipation of implementation problems. This book is therefore aimed at managers of HIV/AIDS programmes. 52 pp. Englisch.

This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -In view of the double globalisation, geographical and thematic, as well as the consequent global stakes, the book analyses raises the question of how national CSOs can make themselves heard in the field of internal politics in their countries. More specifically, in relation to building democracy and the rule of law in the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC), how can national CSOs regain ownership of citizen action, knowing that the local democratic space is condemned to open up to numerous global actors, integration and international cooperation What can be done to ensure that this so-called 'glocal' space does not become a place of predation by certain international organisations. 52 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -As Graham Allison wrote in 2013, 'The question for the next few decades is how China and the United States can escape the 'Thucydides trap' - the conflict resulting from the rivalry between an emerging power and a ruling power, as between Athens and Sparta in the fifth century BC, or between Germany and its neighbours in the late 19th century. The rapid emergence of any new power disrupts the status quo. Historically, in 11 out of 15 cases since 1500, this has ended in war. Historically the thalassocratic powers have always prevailed. Thucydides' trap is closing in the stratosphere, the oceans and the web, spaces of lawlessness. 52 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -The specific aim of the new constitutionalism in Africa, it is said, was to establish strong institutions that would help to root the various countries in democratic practice. This was achieved by establishing and giving pride of place to constitutional councils and courts. In reality, constitutional councils and courts are not only institutions responsible for ensuring compliance with the constitution, in particular by monitoring the constitutionality of laws and ensuring respect for fundamental rights. But beyond this primary function, these institutions have been given the power to regulate and validate presidential elections. But this is without taking into account the fact that, once created, they follow a path determined by their initial logic and become, as it were, independent variables once again. In so doing, they structure subsequent political choices over very long periods, even when they prove to be ill-suited to their environment. 52 pp. Englisch.

In Kananga, the entrepreneurial spirit exists. Certain actions are carried out in the different areas of social life. The activities carried out help the actors to meet the vital needs of their lives, and contribute to a large extent to meeting the costs of food, schooling for children, housing, health care and other social needs. The problem that remains is that of the supervision of the actors by the competent services and the means of supporting the actions undertaken on the ground in the community. Organising the sector remains a wish to help the actors to take on their responsibilities. 56 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Due to population growth, city administrations are starting to worry about the scarcity of natural and finite resources that are being more demanded and also services for citizens such as water, energy, transportation, health, education and security. The information technologies have been allies in the challenge of making a more effective use of these resources, presenting increasingly smaller and more present devices and enabling greater control of the systems that manage such cities. This book brings an objective method to categorize and classify cities based on their technological aspects using preliminary studies to define which criteria will be used in this classification. 72 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Objectives: The objective of this study was to investigate the possible presence of Ferrooxidant bacteria, in particular Thiobacillus and Leptospirillum, and to evaluate their contribution in the leaching of copper ores. Methodology and Results: We selected two types of samples from the leaching solution: pulp filtrate and pulp. Each sample was plated on thioglycholate resazurin medium and subcultured on blood agar under anaerobic conditions. Neither of the two bacteria of interest grew in the pulp filtrate while Thiobacillus ferrooxidans was isolated from the pulp solid. The influence of temperature and pH of 1.5 in the core of the slag heap varied as a result of microbial heat activity, as well as the energy sources for microbial growth which were favorable to the development of Thiobacillus and unfavorable to the development of Leptospirillum which grows only on Fe2+ and at a very acidic pH, less than 1, in the leaching of copper ores. 64 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -This book allows you to become acquainted with the complexity of the Haitian land tenure system where, according to anecdotes, there are more property titles than the surface area of the country. The author's objective is not to go into details but rather to present the causes and origins of this problem which began with our independence in 1804. The earthquake of January 12, 2010 has somewhat aggravated this land situation where the hoped-for reconstruction could not be realized despite the realization of some small projects. This book can also be a useful source of information for the general public, especially students, lawyers, teachers, and NGO managers working in the housing or urban development sector. 52 pp. Englisch.

In what he writes, he emphasises what he delights in: their oddities. Nerval's journey to Greece is richer than that of La Martine and Chateau Briand. This journey is a world of knowledge, of thoughts and feelings, of painting and poetry. 52 pp. Englisch.

This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -As time goes by, the epicentre of the world is increasingly shifting towards information technology with more than 5 billion people connected in 2010, i.e. 70% of the world's population. With the development of ICTs, we see the growth of crime, which is becoming more and more sophisticated with the help of information technology. This is of interest to criminal investigation officers because of the clues that can be drawn from their investigations. As part of the fight against crime, judicial police officers issue requisitions to operators in order to obtain information that can help in investigations. Unfortunately, this process is carried out manually through administrative correspondence, which has many drawbacks, including slowness and security breaches. In this context, the actors involved in this process are entitled to ask themselves whether this process can be automated and made more secure. As a result of our work, we have designed and implemented a secure requisition processing system. 60 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Soil is a fundamental resource for human life on our planet, Earth. More than 90% of the goods we need come directly or indirectly from the soil. However, it is under threat, dangerously eroded, its productive capacity severely tested, and we are witnessing a fall in food production, for which it is mainly involved. This drop in production is caused by the deterioration of the soil's characteristics, which constitute its fertility. At this turning point in history, with demographic growth accompanied by increasing food requirements, humanity faces the challenge of feeding all this population. It has become imperative for mankind to concern itself with the fate of the soil. The lives of all living beings, plants and animals, including humans, depend on this resource. Agricultural activity, which is nourishing, depends on the soil. It's up to the agronomist, the essential agent of agriculture, to better understand the soil in order to make better use of it. That's why this book, aimed at agronomy students, is so important and such a useful tool. 52 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -This guide is a logical sequel, a kind of 'after-sales service' for the book ' Contributing to reflection on the humanisation of the hospital Quality at the heart of hospital management' published in 2013. At the time, this book presented a review of globally shared knowledge on the quality of care and was a plea for a culture of continuous improvement in the care offered to patients. While the virtuous nature of quality care for healthcare establishments is an established fact, its implementation requires an approach that is both simple and practical. This is the perilous exercise the author has undertaken in this booklet. In order to establish a lasting culture of quality, healthcare institutions need to define a coherent plan that includes a clear, shared vision, a clearly understood mission and appropriate strategies. Drawing up and adopting a policy document therefore appears to be the most appropriate and practical way of achieving sustainable improvements in healthcare services. 52 pp. Englisch.

This group of patients with nutritional complications are those young women who since childhood have had a poor diet and even their bodies have not reached the full development that a woman's body should have in order to have a baby, As a result, children are born with anaemia, malnutrition or macrosomia and the mother is left in very bad conditions. If this is added to the fact that the adolescent girl does not breastfeed very often, since most of them have to continue with their studies, she is giving a poor diet to the future children of our canton. In the Balzar Hospital we were able to carry out this research work in which we carried out a survey of pregnant adolescents who presented some type of nutritional disorder such as being overweight or underweight. During prenatal check-ups we provided nutritional advice, gradually changing their eating habits, measuring their height, weight, BMI, laboratory tests, and we gave talks to adolescents and their families. 88 pp. Englisch.

Space activities are no longer conducted solely by states. Private actors have entered the market. The world has changed - the world of space has been profoundly transformed and the law must adapt, but how What will space activities be like in fifty years. in 2067 The system is constantly evolving to take into account the new issues related to the activities, and to the evolution of technologies. We are at the dawn of a new era in space activities - which now requires reflection on exactly how to adapt, and adopt adequate legal frameworks to balance sometimes competing interests. This book is intended for students, researchers, and anyone interested in the space sector and its evolution. 52 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -In this book I have the honor to present the results of my field research on the knowledge and use of food and medicinal plants in Kasai. I have targeted two communities: the pygmies, living in the equatorial forest near Lubunga, and the Bantus who represent the majority of the Kasai population. I listed about a hundred plants, giving them their scientific names and specifying their botanical families. Then I indicated in the different tables their uses. In the case of the medicinal uses, I also specified the part used as well as the disease to be treated. My concern is that the knowledge of these plants, especially medicinal ones, should not be the privilege of a few: I want everyone to know them in order to use them when necessary. My second concern is to plead for their protection and diffusion through the creation of small botanical gardens. 60 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Today, technical progress and modernity disturb human tranquility, which is one of the main preoccupations of contemporary writers including Le Clézio and Tournier, who find human life in peril, which is why they resort to primitive nature. According to the German thinker, Heidegger, the essential cause of the anguish of modern man is due to the feeling of the gap in the being. Heidegger finds the only solution in the return to the being. Jaspers, like Heidegger, represents his method in a positive way. The essential problem posed by the writers mentioned, seems to be that of the identity of the modern man. The protagonists of the works of these writers brutally accuse the modern world, an era in which mankind has become aware of its effort to build only an earthly hell. In this book, we plan to analyze the internal universe of these two works based on Bachelardian ideas. The study of how to express the hostility of these writers with the modern life of today is the essential goal of this research. 52 pp. Englisch.
