Boilers
Following the publication of the author’s first book, Boilers for Power and Process by CRC Press in 2009, several requests were made for a reference with even quicker access to information. Boilers: A Practical Reference is the result of those requests, providing a user-friendly encyclopedic format with more than 500 entries and nearly the same number of supporting illustrations. Written for practicing engineers and dealing with practical issues rather than theory, this reference focuses exclusively on water tube boilers found in process industries and power plants. It provides broad explanations for the following topics: A range of boilers and main auxiliaries, as well as steam and gas tu...
Between Educationalization and Appropriation
Developments in educational systems worldwide have largely contributed to the modernization and globalization of present-day society. However, in order to fully understand their impact, educational systems must be interpreted against a background of particular situations and contexts. This textbook brings together more than twenty (collaborative) contributions focusing on the two key themes in the work of Marc Depaepe: educationalization and appropriation. Compiled for his international master classes, these selected writings provide not only a thorough introduction to the history of modern educational systems, but also a twenty-five-year overview of the work of a well-known pioneer in the field of history of education. Covering the modernization of schooling in Western history, the characteristics and origins of educationalization, the colonial experience in education, and the process of "appropriation," Between Educationalization and Appropriation will be of great interest to a larger audience of scholars in the social sciences.
The Safety Relief Valve Handbook
The Safety Valve Handbook is a professional reference for design, process, instrumentation, plant and maintenance engineers who work with fluid flow and transportation systems in the process industries, which covers the chemical, oil and gas, water, paper and pulp, food and bio products and energy sectors. It meets the need of engineers who have responsibilities for specifying, installing, inspecting or maintaining safety valves and flow control systems. It will also be an important reference for process safety and loss prevention engineers, environmental engineers, and plant and process designers who need to understand the operation of safety valves in a wider equipment or plant design cont...
Religious Voting in Western Democracies
This book offers a systematic exploration of the role of religion and religiosity in electoral politics in Catholic, Protestant, and religiously mixed countries across Western Europe and in the United States. The chapters approach the relationship between religion, religiosity, and electoral behaviour from a variety of different angles. They include analyses of secularization trends; comparative studies of the links between vote choice and religiosity; longitudinal single country studies; and a novel discussion of the theoretical underpinnings of the politicization of religion that provides a radically new framework for the analysis of the role of religiosity in election studies. The volume ...

Schrijven in de Grauwzone
J.M.H. Berckmans is een van de meest oorspronkelijke Nederlandstalige auteurs van de vorige decennia. Tijdens zijn woelige leven werd zijn unieke stem door vele schrijvende collega's bewonderd. Zijn vaak zelfdestructieve gedrag was zowel een hinderpaal als brandstof voor zijn taalmuziek. In 2008 stierf hij op 54-jarige leeftijd, alleen en in miserabele omstandigheden. Vandaag zijn Berckmans' boeken verzamelobjecten en werd hijzelf een legende die lezers blijft fascineren. Op basis van vele ongepubliceerde teksten, brieven en gesprekken met familie, vrienden en collega's reconstrueert biograaf Chris Ceustermans Berckmans' literaire en existentiële zoektocht. Of hoe een teruggetrokken jongen uit een arme arbeidersfamilie en Italiaans handelsagent in goedkope schoenen de virtuoze vuurspuwer met woorden werd.
