Food Waste Reduction and Valorisation
This book adds a new dimension to the sustainability assessment of food waste reduction and valorisation: policy analysis. Featuring a transdisciplinary analysis by key experts in the field, it identifies the drivers of change in food-waste reduction and valorisation technologies by looking, for example, at the regulatory framework and at policy actions undertaken by local and global actors. The book explores the development of regulations and policies for food-waste prevention, management, and valorisation at a global as well as European Union level. It also discusses the notion of food waste in legal terms and investigates the effects of the lack of a standard, universal definition of food waste on the efficient use of by-products, promising processes and products for technological and commercial exploitation. Utilising mathematical mapping methods to assess food consumption impacts and providing supply chain models that allow the testing of consumption scenarios, the book goes on to discuss a series of emerging technologies (tested at lab scale and/ or pilot scale) and opportunities for the valorisation of food waste.
Drivers and Barriers of Consumer Behavior Regarding New Technologies and Digital Channels
Katja Wagner investigates consumer behavioral intention and interactions with new technologies and digital channels. Due to the fact that the development, spread and sale of these new technologies and digital channels will have a continuous growth and influence in the following years regarding business activities, it is important to take a deeper look in the areas of artificial intelligence and e-commerce. Not only business is affected from these new shifts, but it also impacts consumers’ attitudes, motivation, and practices. So, the evaluation of anthropomorphism and in general, the expectation and motivation of successful acceptance are under review and offer explanations for consumers intentional usage of new technologies. Therefore, six essays address specific phenomena in central subareas of new technologies and digital channels for a more profound understanding of consumers in digital environments.
Lexicography in the Borderland between Knowledge and Non-Knowledge
The book contains a state-of-the-art summary of the theoretical discussions within the field of lexicography during the last decades. On this basis it presents and argues for a new general theory, called the function theory. It goes on to develop this theory in one single field, i.e. learners lexicography where it both formulates the basic elements of a general theory for learners’ dictionaries as well as a number of specific theories for special subfields such as selection, meaning, semantic relations, morphology, syntactic properties and word combinations. It contains a big number of examples extracted from existing dictionaries which are discussed from the point of view of the theories formulated.

Twice
Hell and Heaven in one place. Past, present and future combined in one dimension. Twice. Inspired by a true life experience, the story of Flower leads us into the heart of a young woman who needs to endure an unexpected negative turn of her life. For the second time.

My Innocent Absence
In this poignant memoir Frank paints a vivid portrait of a life as refugee to New Zealand through the colourful images of a child's eye from Collioure and Oran in France; from the Casablance immortalised by Bogart and Bergman, to markets from Mexico's Xochilmilco.
Phoebe Daring
Poetic Phoebe Daring is a wonderful twist on the original Phoebe Daring. If you are a long time fan of the L. Frank Baum original, you'll be curious how true this book is to the original. The book makes a departure from the original and may be the most wacky by-product for the L. Frank Baum fan. In this expanded edition of Phoebe Daring, 85 percent of the original text has been preserved but fused with how L. Frank Baum would write it today.... It's the perfect read for literature lovers, L. Frank Baum fans, and anyone who loves a reanimated Phoebe Daring.
