A series of numbers was tattooed on prisoners’ forearms only at one location - the Auschwitz concentration camp complex. Children, parents, grandparents, mostly Jews but also a significant number of non-Jews scarred for life. Indelibly etched with a number into their flesh and souls, constantly reminding them of the horrors of the Holocaust. References to the Auschwitz number appear in artworks from the Holocaust period and onwards, by survivors and non-survivor artists, and Jewish and non-Jewish artists. These artists refer to the number from Auschwitz to portray the Holocaust and its meaning. This book analyzes the place that the image of the Auschwitz number occupies in the artist’s consciousness and how it is grasped in the collective perception of different societies. It discusses how the Auschwitz number is used in public and private Holocaust commemoration. Additionally, the book describes the use of the Auschwitz number as a Holocaust icon to protest, warn, and fight against Holocaust denial.
This book addresses the innovative themes in characterizing the cellular membrane platforms and intracellular networking, as well as the architectural aspects of cell compartments mediated by the entry and replication cycles of viruses. The instrumentation of modern molecular and cellular biology provides a potent array of wave packets to image, detect and manipulate major dynamics of macromolecular and subviral assemblies as in the host cellular context.The book includes case studies presented with highly coherent and structured illuminations, including microscopy, spectroscopy and scanning probes. The compilation and integration of the methodology provides time-resolved observations on the reactivity of structures from near-atomic resolution to various molecular or cellular levels of descriptors. The book provides a broad introduction to the various fascinating virus systems and may be used as an advanced textbook by graduate students in biomedicine. It provides adequate background material to explore further the research problems of epidemics in the 21st century.
This book provides a comprehensive overview of the benefits of biofertilizers as an alternative to chemical fertilizers and pesticides. Agricultural production has increased massively over the last century due to increased use of chemical fertilizers and pesticides, but these gains have come at a price. The chemicals are not only expensive; they also reduce microbial activity in agricultural soils and accumulate in the food chain, with potentially harmful effects for humans. Accordingly, it is high time to explore alternatives and to find solutions to overcome our increasing dependence on these chemicals. Biofertilizers, which consist of plant remains, organic matter and microorganisms, migh...

In der vorliegenden Dissertation geht es um die Vorstellung der verschiedenen Partizipationsebenen sowie der Komponenten eines Dienstleistungssystems als Co-Creation System. Auf dieser Basis wird eine digitale kollaborative Bürgerbeteiligungsplattform zur Co-Creation von bürgerinitiierten Dienstleistungen im öffentlichen Sektor designt und evaluiert. Weiterhin findet das Design und die Evaluation einer digitalen kollaborativen Lern- und Qualifizierungsplattform zur Co-Creation von situiertem arbeitsprozessbezogenem Lernmaterial im privaten Sektor statt. Schließlich werden geeignete Dienstleistungsmessmodelle zur Qualitätsbestimmung erarbeitet. Dabei trägt die Dissertation mit dem systematischen Co-Creation Einreichungsprozess durch die Anwendung von strukturellem Empowerment zur Unter stützung des Einzelnen bei. Die aus einem Top-down und Bottom-up Ansatz kombinierte Co-Creation Plattform stellt eine Theorie der Gestaltung und des Handelns dar. Zusätzlich werden konkrete Designprinzipien zur Entwicklung des Co Creation Systems bereitgestellt.
Under ongoing climate change, natural and cultivated habitats of major food crops are being continuously disturbed. Such condition accelerates to impose stress effects like abiotic and biotic stressors. Drought, salinity, flood, cold, heat, heavy metals, metalloids, oxidants, irradiation etc. are important abiotic stresses; and diseases and infections caused by plant pathogens viz. fungal agents, bacteria and viruses are major biotic stresses. As a result, these harsh environments affect crop productivity and its biology in multiple complex paradigms. As stresses become the limiting factors for agricultural productivity and exert detrimental role on growth and yield of the crops, scientists ...
