Parties and Parliaments in Southeast Asia
Political parties are an essential ingredient in a modern democracy. They are also seen as the least trusted and most problematic institution in most democratic systems. While there have been attempts to strengthen parties through institutional design and capacity building, a new strategy has been to quarantine them from parts of parliament. Within the space of a few years the Philippines, Thailand and Indonesia implemented designs for parliamentary representation that proscribed the established political parties from a parliamentary chamber or part thereof. Using these three countries as case studies, this book traces the historical context for institutional designs, the intentions behind t...
Advanced Diffusion Encoding Methods in MRI
The medical MRI community is by far the largest user of diffusion NMR techniques and this book captures the current surge of methods and provides a primary source to aid adoption in this field. There is a trend to adapting the more advanced diffusion encoding sequences developed by NMR researchers within the fields of porous media, chemical engineering, and colloid science to medical research. Recently published papers indicate great potential for improved diagnosis of the numerous pathological conditions associated with changes of tissue microstructure that are invisible to conventional diffusion MRI. This book disseminates these recent developments to the wider community of MRI researchers and clinicians. The chapters cover the theoretical basis, hardware and pulse sequences, data analysis and validation, and recent applications aimed at promoting further growth in the field. This is a fast moving field and chapters are written by key MRI scientists that have contributed to the successful translation of the advanced diffusion NMR methods to the context of medical MRI, from global locations.
Translational Dynamics and Magnetic Resonance
Taking the reader through the underlying principles of molecular translational dynamics, this book outlines the ways in which magnetic resonance, through the use of magnetic field gradients, can reveal those dynamics. The measurement of diffusion and flow, over different length and time scales, provides unique insight regarding fluid interactions with porous materials, as well as molecular organisation in soft matter and complex fluids. The book covers both time and frequency domain methodologies, as well as advances in scattering and diffraction methods, multidimensional exchange and correlation experiments and orientational correlation methods ideal for studying anisotropic environments. At the heart of these new methods resides the ubiquitous spin echo, a phenomenon whose discovery underpins nearly every major development in magnetic resonance methodology. Measuring molecular translational motion does not require high spectral resolution and so finds application in new NMR technologies concerned with 'outside the laboratory' applications, in geophysics and petroleum physics, in horticulture, in food technology, in security screening, and in environmental monitoring.

Lactic Acid Bacteria
This updated volume presents experimentation-based approaches to lactic acid bacteria (LAB) research. Split into three parts, the book explores techniques for analyzing lactic acid bacteria metabolism and characteristics, applications for food-related industries, such as yogurt production, beer, and wine making, and functions of LAB in human health. Written for the highly successful Methods in Molecular Biology series, chapters include introduction to their respective topic, lists of the necessary materials and reagents, step-by-step and readily reproducible laboratory protocols, and tips on troubleshooting and avoiding known pitfalls. Authoritative and up-to-date, Lactic Acid Bacteria: Methods and Protocols, Second Edition serves as an ideal guide for improving research into this vital area of nutrition and health science.
O zgodovini slovenske krščanske demokracije
Knjiga je obširna izdaja spominov širši javnosti manj znanega, pa vendar pomembnega slovenskega politika prve polovice 20. stoletja. Pravnik Jakob Mohorič se je namreč od svoje mladosti naprej aktivno vključeval v politično življenje kot privrženec slovenskega katoliškega tabora, prav zato pa nudijo njegovi spominski zapisi izjemno zanimiv zakulisni vpogled v tedanjo slovensko politično dogajanje. Knjiga je nastala pod uredništvom dr. Andreja Rahtena in dr. Gregorja Antoličiča, pri čemer je Rahten knjigi dodal tudi obsežno spremno študijo. V sklopu slednje je Jakob Mohorič postavljen v širši kontekst političnega dogajanja na Slovenskem vse od predvečera prve svetovne vojne pa tja do konca druge svetovne vojne. Na tej podlagi tako spominski zapisi Jakoba Mohoriča kot tudi spremna študija Andreja Rahtena prinašajo v slovenski zgodovinski prostor nov pogled na prelomne dogodke iz naše bližnje preteklosti. Za boljše razumevanje Mohoričevega teksta in njegovih življenjskih okoliščin sta urednika vzpostavila stik z njegovimi potomci in opravila več intervjujev, kar knjigi daje še dodatno težo.
