Cultural Values and the Family Beyond Year 2000
Culture is dynamic. But in cultural (ethnic) groups certain elements of culture such as cultural values relating to the family are regarded indispensable for social order, and therefore for the survival of the society. Accordingly those concerned strive to maintain social order by rediscovering what they regard as traditional cultural values. The thesis of this study is: the process of the development of cultural values relating to the family can be defined as "Spiral Involution"; namely a development through interparticipative stages, each stage (past or present) participating in the other, as impulse to further development. Therefore the proposition of this study is: dialogal-value-system-concordance, a conscious intervention by those concerned through dialogue towards optimal social order.
Spirit Sets Free
The Spirit Sets Free reflects on the Spirit setting free from within as a basis for the spontaneous enthusiasm of hope and joy, expressed in general liveliness, music and dance. This poses the challenge of laying the foundation of moral integrity as the second stage of African renaissance. The commitment to this challenge of moral integrity makes African spirituality a prophetic spirituality in the service of universal hope and joy. These cultural and spiritual missions involve both opportunity and responsibility with wide-ranging implications for individuals and groups of peoples of African heritage. The reflections suggest how individuals or peoples of African heritage could convert this challenge of moral rebirth into the opportunity for true freedom from within, as basis of hope and joy.
Don't Let them Die
Africa's healthcare crises is well documented, even if not always accurately. What is undeniable is that millions of Africans are dying - from HIV/AIDs, tuberculosis, malaria and other illnesses - some of them easily preventable.Dr Akukwe examines the healthcare policies on Africa's major diseases - HIV/AIDS, tuberculosis and malaria, showing how the healthcare crisis is bound up with, and worsens the general crisis of poverty in the continent. He also discusses how a different form of policy intervention can make all the difference.

Deceptive Knight
I am a liar, a deceiver, a devil in the dark. I will hunt you, steal your secrets, and use them against you. You will never see me coming. Then I met my match. She cut out my heart, left me bleeding, without a backward glance. But, she made one mistake...she stepped back into my world, trying to run from her past. She's mine, and she will soon learn there is no escape when fate says she belongs to me.
Introduction to Epigenetics
This open access textbook leads the reader from basic concepts of chromatin structure and function and RNA mechanisms to the understanding of epigenetics, imprinting, regeneration and reprogramming. The textbook treats epigenetic phenomena in animals, as well as plants. Written by four internationally known experts and senior lecturers in this field, it provides a valuable tool for Master- and PhD- students who need to comprehend the principles of epigenetics, or wish to gain a deeper knowledge in this field. After reading this book, the student will: Have an understanding of the basic toolbox of epigenetic regulation Know how genetic and epigenetic information layers are interconnected Be able to explain complex epigenetic phenomena by understanding the structures and principles of the underlying molecular mechanisms Understand how misregulated epigenetic mechanisms can lead to disease
Lithuanian Jewish Communities
Lithuanian Jewish Communities is a remarkable resource for students of Lithuanian Jewish history and for people descended from Lithuanian Jews. This volume lists, in alphabetical order, the major Jewish communities that existed in Lithuania before World War II. The name of each community is accompanied by information about it: when it was founded, the Jewish population in different years, shops and synagogues, and the names of citizens. An appendix locates each town on a map of Lithuania. Since most of the Jewish communities in Lithuania were destroyed in the Holocaust, this volume will be a valuable tool in recreating a picture of Lithuanian Jewry. Other appendices provide member lists from Lithuanian Jewish organizations throughout the world and list agencies that will provide help in further research on Lithuanian Jewry. Descendants of Lithuanian Jews who wish to trace their genealogy will be greatly helped by Lithuanian Jewish Communities.
Additive Runge-Kutta Schemes for Convection-diffusion-reaction Equations
Additive Runge-Kutta (ARK) methods are investigated for application to the spatially discretized one-dimensional convection-diffusion-reaction (CDR) equations. First, accuracy, stability, conservation, and dense output are considered for the general case when N different Runge-Kutta methods are grouped into a single composite method. Then, implicit-explicit, N=2, additive Runge-Kutta ARK methods from third- to fifth-order are presented that allow for integration of stiff terms by an L-stable, stiffly-accurate explicit, singly diagonally implicit Runge-Kutta (ESDIRK) method while the nonstiff terms are integrated with a traditional explicit Runge-Kutta method (ERK). Coupling error terms are of equal order to those of the elemental methods. Derived ARK methods have vanishing stability functions for very large values of the stiff scaled eigenvalue and retain high stability efficiency in the absence of stiffness.
