This collection of wide ranging case studies and theoretical pieces shows how religious or spiritual factors can play a helpful role in international relations. Written by a distinguished roster of scholars, this volume includes a foreword by Jimmy Carter and six maps.
This book is at the center of the UN goals of combining environment and economic development with new technologies.First, sustainability in mining is defined as a process of transformation. This is followed by an outlook on the aspects of safety, economy, environmental impact and digital transformation. The book includes a discussion of new aspects such as the problem of liability for mining damages regarding climate change in Peru. Specific technical issues in smart mining are covered as well, such as underground localization systems based on ultra-wide band radio and inertial navigation, or the use of thermal imaging for roof crack detection. In addition, the characterization of material flows, subsurface hydrogen-storage systems and the prediction of mining induced subsidence and uplift are dealt with.The Sustainable Smart Mining and Energy Yearbook is not only aimed at researchers professionals, but at all who want to get an overview of the important technical and legal topics in this field.
“War is just a word.” To young Anna that’s all it is, just a word, it’s where Pappa goes to work, until one day, the War comes home. WW II, the world’s most horrific War was on its way and they had no idea of its coming. No one could have foreseen that so much madness would erupt from such a small country, a land of the Fairytales and Legends, nor could they have imagined that their “Fuehrer” Adolf Hitler, whom they had raised to glorious heights, would take them to the depth of hell. Through the horror, amidst the chaos, emerges the story of a family, of Ludwig, his wife Marta and their high spirited young daughter Anna, who wake up one morning, to find their lives threatened ...
First multi-year cumulation covers six years: 1965-70.
This book provides current, comprehensive, and clear explanations of the physics behind medical and biomedical applications of shock waves. Extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy is one of the greatest medical advances of our time, and its techniques and clinical devices are continuously evolving. Further research continues to improve the understanding of calculi fragmentation and tissue-damaging mechanisms. Shock waves are also used in orthopedics and traumatology. Possible applications in oncology, cardiology, dentistry, gene therapy, cell transfection, transformation of fungi and bacteria, as well as the inactivation of microorganisms are promising approaches for clinical treatment, indust...
In a world at the eve of digital television by satellite and cable, this publication provides a state-of-the-art exploration of the latest developments in HDTV technology. It highlights the technologies needed to launch HDTV from demonstration and trial status to that of a complete product and service. It also contributes towards the provision of the knowledge base required for the planning and management of the spectrum across the continents.Papers are sourced from a wide range of international experts in the field, including those from Canada, where, according to L. Chiariglione, ... An incredibly bold gamble, the progressive introduction of HDTV service on the [Canadian] terrestrial distribution network, additional to the existing TV service, has been proven to work and steps have been taken towards the full technical specification of the complete system. This publication aims to have the dream of interactive television take a leap forward into reality.
This book provides a practical, concise guide to existing and future biosensor methodologies and technologies (i.e. portable sensing devices for continuous monitoring of parameters of blood glucose, carbon dioxide, PH, neurochemical analysis.) It considers why continuous in vivo sensing might be preferable to discontinuous in vitro sensing, which diagnostic parameters are of immediate health-care and commercial interest and which existing commercial devices lie on the path to fully autonomas, implantable devices.
Formerly known by its subtitle “Internationale Zeitschriftenschau für Bibelwissenschaft und Grenzgebiete”, the International Review of Biblical Studies has served the scholarly community ever since its inception in the early 1950’s. Each annual volume includes approximately 2,000 abstracts and summaries of articles and books that deal with the Bible and related literature, including the Dead Sea Scrolls, Pseudepigrapha, Non-canonical gospels, and ancient Near Eastern writings. The abstracts – which may be in English, German, or French - are arranged thematically under headings such as e.g. “Genesis”, “Matthew”, “Greek language”, “text and textual criticism”, “exegetical methods and approaches”, “biblical theology”, “social and religious institutions”, “biblical personalities”, “history of Israel and early Judaism”, and so on. The articles and books that are abstracted and reviewed are collected annually by an international team of collaborators from over 300 of the most important periodicals and book series in the fields covered.
