The Taste of Art offers a sample of scholarly essays that examine the role of food in Western contemporary art practices. The contributors are scholars from a range of disciplines, including art history, philosophy, film studies, and history. As a whole, the volume illustrates how artists engage with food as matter and process in order to explore alternative aesthetic strategies and indicate countercultural shifts in society. The collection opens by exploring the theoretical intersections of art and food, food art’s historical root in Futurism, and the ways in which food carries gendered meaning in popular film. Subsequent sections analyze the ways in which artists challenge mainstream ide...
This book deals with the most emerging aspects of algal research with special reference to microalgae viz; diversity, mutations, genomics and metagenomics study, eco-physiology, culturing, microalgae for food and feed, biofuel production, harvesting of microalgae, separation, and purification of biochemicals, techno-economical assessment, microalgal biotechnology, algal-bacterial systems for wastewater treatment. It describes the complex issues associated with the above-mentioned areas with the intervention of cutting-edge biotechnological tools and techniques like next-generation sequencing methods, metabolomics, and bioreactor design and development. The chapters provide past developments, current information and future prospects of algal technology as an alternate avenue for waste water treatment and its potential for production of biofuel and nutraceuticals.
Algae Refinery: Up- and Downstream Processes offers complete coverage of algae refinery, including up- and downstream processes while proposing an integrated algal refinery for the advancement of existing technologies and summarizing the strategies and future perspectives of algal refinery. It provides a concise introduction to the algal science, biology, technology, and application of algae. It explains downstream and upstream steps of algal refinery for the production of algal biomass, with several social benefits. Features: Provides various aspects of algal bioprocess including upstream and downstream processes Explains the major research streams of algae structures and their pathways Covers algal-based CO2 capture technology Explores the potential applications of algae for socioeconomical benefits Deliberates algal bioremediation approach for clean and sustainable development
This is the first book to present the idea of using Industry 4.0 and smart manufacturing in the microalgae industry for environmental biotechnology. It provides the latest developments on microalgae for use in environmental biotechnology, explains process analysis from an engineering point of view, and discusses the transition to smart manufacturing and how state of the art technologies can be incorporated. It covers applications, technologies, challenges, and future perspectives. • Showcases how Industry 4.0 can be applied in algae industry • Covers new ideas generated from Industry 4.0 for Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) • Demonstrates new technologies invented to cater to Industry 4.0 in microalgae • Features worked examples related to biological systems Aimed at chemical engineers, bioengineers, and environmental engineers, this is an essential resource for researchers, academics, and industry professionals in the microalgae biotechnology field.
Sekalipun sering dianggap sebagai karya pertama sastera klasik Melayu oleh kaum sarjana yang meminati ilmu pengajian Melayu, dan tela’ah demi tela’ah telah dilakukan terhadapnya sejak pertengahan abad ke-19, namun Hikayat Raja Pasai, belum pernah dikaji secara mendalam oleh sejarawan. Penerbitan edisi terbaru karya yang melakar zaman awal kedatangan Islam di Sumatera Utara oleh Prof. Emeritus Datuk Dr. Ahmat Adam ini adalah percubaan terkini beliau untuk mengetengahkan beberapa tafsiran baru mengenai karya klasik Melayu yang belum pernah diungkapkan oleh mana-mana kajian; satu daripadanya ialah aspek tasawuf di dalam karya itu.
Biotechnology and Crop Improvement The green revolution led to the development of improved varieties of crops, especially cereals, and since then, classical or molecular breeding has resulted in the creation of economically valuable species. Thanks to recent developments in biotechnology, it has become possible to introduce genes from different sources, such as bacteria, fungi, viruses, mice and humans, to plants. This technology has made the scientific community aware of the critical role of transgenic, not only as a means of producing stress tolerant crops but also as a platform for the production of therapeutics through molecular farming. Biotechnology and Crop Improvement: Tissue Culture...

This work, based on Persian and non-Persian sources, contemporary and later, is an impartial study of the rise and fall of the Nizam Shahi Kingdom of Ahmadnagar, founded in 1490 A.D., conquered by Shahjahan and annexed to the Mughal empire in 1636 A.D. From the very beginning, Nizam Shahis, struggled against the neighbouring states of the North, the Daccan and the South, the rising power of the Portuguese and then against the expansionist designs of the Mughal Emperors, to preserve the local cultural traditions, political independence and also to maintain balance of power between the imperial power of the North and independent states of the Daccan. In their struggle against the Mughals, they were supported by the Portuguese, and the states of Bijapur and Golkunda, by the Marathas and Abyssinians. For a while they successfully resisted the forward movement of the Mughal forces. A complete account of it has been given. Apart from the political achievements and failures of the Nizam Shahi kings, their cultural contributions and political institutions have been closely examined in proper perspective.
