New observations of the period between the cosmic recombination and the end of reionization are posing intriguing questions about where the first generations of stars were formed, how the first galaxies were assembled, whether these galaxies have low redshift counterparts, and what role the early galaxies played in the reionization process. Combining the new observational data with theoretical models can shed new light on open issues regarding the star formation process, its role in the reionization of the Universe, and the metal enrichment in galaxies at those early epochs. This volume brings together leading experts in the field to discuss our current level of understanding and what may co...
Turkey hosts more refugees than any other country in the world, with forced migrants from Syria, Afghanistan, Pakistan, Iraq, and other countries converging, either with hopes to settle in Turkey or to continue onwards to the European Union (EU). This volume addresses the specific experiences and trajectories of forced migrants in Turkey in the context of local and national contexts and the future of EU-Turkey relations. It presents the demographics of forced migrants, the biographies and future plans of refugees, and their interactions with civil society, states, and international agencies. A focus is on organized violence and corresponding experiences in countries of origin, during transit, and at current places. Based on extensive quantitative and qualitative research, this book will be of interest to researchers and practitioners in the fields of migration, human security, and refugee studies, as well as of sociology, political sciences, and international relations.

"Mice have long been recognized as a valuable tool for investigating the genetic and physiological bases of human diseases such as diabetes, infectious disease, cancer, heart disease, and a wide array of neurological disorders. With the advent of transgenic and other genetic engineering technologies, the versatility and usefulness of the mouse as a model in biomedical research has soared. As a result, mouse colonies everywhere are expanding, and scientists who previously focused on other models are turning their attention to the mouse. Revised to reflect advances since the first edition, The Laboratory Mouse, Second Edition continues to be the most accessible reference on the biology and care of the laboratory mouse. This guide presents basic information and common procedures in detail to provide a quick reference source for investigators, technicians, and caretakers in the humane care and use of the mouse in the laboratory setting. Expanded, updated, and now in color, this new edition includes coverage of the biological features, husbandry, management, veterinary care, experimental methodology, and resources applying specifically to the mouse"--Provided by publisher.

Dünyada ulus devlet ve ulusçuluk gibi modern gelişmeler ve siyasi tasarımlar ile yüzleşmeden çok evvel Xanî’nin Kürtler için bir devlet ön görmüş olması nasıl anlaşılmalıdır? Bu sorunun hem geçmiş hem de bugünkü ahvala değen bir perspektif ile ele alınması durumunda ne tür çıkarımlar ile karşılaşmak mümkün? Kürt siyasal aklının yazılı anlamda neredeyse matrixi sayılabilecek Xanî ve onun ölümsüz eseri Mem û Zîn bu manada bize ne tür imkânlar vermektedir? Xanî ulusçu veya milliyetçi midir? Ulusçuluk ile milliyetçilik aynı şeyler midir? Bu ve bu eksende farklı soru ve sorunları önüne koyarak hazırlanmış bu kitabın, Xanî’ye dair yeni düşünce ve ufuklar geliştirdiği kanaatindeyiz. Yüzyıllardır Kürt toplumunun yapısal soru ve sorunlarını karakterize etmede de önemli bir alan sunan bu çalışma, Xanî’ye dair yeni ve orijinal çalışmalara kapı aralaması için de ümit vericidir
