Leafy Medicinal Herbs
Medicinal herbs are rich in vitamins, minerals and antioxidants, and are able to synthesize secondary metabolites with disease preventive properties. It is due to these qualities that herbs have been used throughout history for flavouring and in food, medicine and perfumery preparations. They are also often considered to be safe alternatives to modern medicines because of their healing properties. Though interest in medicinal and aromatic crops is growing worldwide, there is still little focus on the area of leafy medicinal herbs. This book compiles the literature for 23 globally relevant leafy medicinal herbs. Beginning with a general overview and discussion of the importance of these plant...
Religion and Human Security
This volume of essays explores the long-unstudied relationship between religion and human security throughout the world. The 1950s marked the beginning of a period of extraordinary religious revival, during which religious political-parties and non-governmental organizations gained power around the globe. Until now, there has been little systematic study of the impact that this phenomenon has had on human welfare, except of a relationship between religious revival to violence. The authors of these essays show that religion can have positive as well as negative effects on human wellbeing. They address a number of crucial questions about the relationship between religion and human security: Un...
Cultures of Development
The North Atlantic development establishment has had a blemished track record over the past 65 years. In addition to a sizeable portfolio of failure, the few economic success stories in the developing world, such as South Korea and China, have been achieved by rejecting the advice of Western experts. Despite these realities, debates within mainstream development studies have stagnated around a narrow, acultural emphasis on institutions or the size and role of government. Cultures of Development uses a contrapuntal comparison of Vietnam and Brazil to show why it is important for development scholars and practitioners to broaden their conceptualization of economies to include the socio-cultura...

Particulate Drying
In the process industry, understanding the unit operation of particulate drying is imperative to yield products with desired properties and characteristics and to ensure process safety, optimal energy efficiency and drying performance, as well as low environmental impact. There are many techniques and tools available, which can cause confusion. Particulate Drying: Techniques and Industry Applications provides an overview of various particulate drying techniques, their advantages and limitations, industrial applications, and simple design methods. This book: • Covers advances in particulate drying and their importance in the process industry • Highlights recent developments in conventiona...
Spouted and Spout-Fluid Beds
Since the pioneering text by Mathur and Epstein over 35 years ago, much of the work on this subject has been extended or superseded, producing an enormous body of scattered literature. This edited volume unifies the subject, pulling material together and underpinning it with fundamental theory to produce the only complete, up-to-date reference on all major areas of spouted bed research and practice. With contributions from internationally renowned research groups, this book guides the reader through new developments, insights and models. The hydrodynamic and reactor models of spouted and spout-fluid beds are examined, as well as such topics as particle segregation, heat and mass transfer, mixing and scale-up. Later chapters focus on drying, particle-coating and energy-related applications based on spouted and spout-fluid beds. This is a valuable resource for chemical and mechanical engineers in research and industry.
Indemnização “Própria” e “Imprópria” em Processo Penal
Nos últimos anos, com a reconsideração da importância da proteção das vítimas, tem-se notado uma aproximação entre a pena e a reparação. O tempo confessou que um Direito penal despreocupado com a vítima espelhara desequilíbrios e incongruências, com supremacias morais seletivas, ora querendo reabilitar os infratores, mas ignorando as vítimas, esquecendo o verdadeiro papel do Direito enquanto ordenamento de proteção e reparação. Atualmente, o Direito penal permite a reparação de danos das vítimas em várias formas e momentos diferentes, nem sempre se revelando clara a natureza dessa reparação. Numa abordagem teórico-prática aventura-se por uma reorganização sistemática da reparação de danos no contexto do Direito penal em duas vias: a i) indemnização própria; e a ii) indemnização imprópria.
