Coffee

We live in an era of constantly accelerating scientific and social change brought about by developments in education, technology and modem communication.

  • Publisher: NYU Press

"Cutting, burning, branding, and bone-breaking are all types of self-injury, of the deliberate, non-suicidal destruction of one's own body tissue, a practice that emerged from obscurity in the 1990s and spread dramatically as a typical behavior among adolescents. Long considered a suicidal gesture, The Tender Cut argues instead that self-injury is often a coping mechanism, a form of teenage angst, and expression of group membership, and a type of rebellion, converting unbearable emotional pain into manageable physical pain. An important portrait of a troubling behavior, The Tender Cut illuminates the meaning of self-injury in the 21st century, its effects on current and former users, and its future as a practice for self-discovery or a cry for help."--P. [4] of cover.

Since 1948

2021 CHOICE Outstanding Academic Title Toward the end of the twentieth century, an unprecedented surge of writing altered the Israeli literary scene in profound ways. As fresh creative voices and multiple languages vied for recognition, diversity replaced consensus. Genres once accorded lower status—such as the graphic novel and science fiction—gained readership and positive critical notice. These trends ushered in not only the discovery and recovery of literary works but also a major rethinking of literary history. In Since 1948, scholars consider how recent voices have succeeded older ones and reverberated in concert with them; how linguistic and geographical boundaries have blurred; how genres have shifted; and how canon and competition have shaped Israeli culture. Charting surprising trajectories of a vibrant, challenging, and dynamic literature, the contributors analyze texts composed in Hebrew, Yiddish, and Arabic; by Jews and non-Jews; and by Israelis abroad as well as writers in Israel. What emerges is a portrait of Israeli literature as neither minor nor regional, but rather as transnational, multilingual, and worthy of international attention.

Natural Food Colorants

In this second edition of Natural Food Colorants two new chapters have been added and we have taken the opportunity to revise all the other chapters. Each of the original authors have brought up to date their individual contributions, involving in several cases an expansion to the text by the addition of new material. The new chapters are on the role of biotechnology in food colorant production and on safety in natural colorants, two areas which have undergone considerable change and development in the past five years. We have also persuaded the publishers to indulge in a display of colours by including illustrations of the majority of pigments of importance to the food industry. Finally we ...

Mãe... Amor inexplicável. Amor infinito. Amor verdadeiro. Amor sagrado. Tantas histórias a serem contadas baseadas nesse amor. E a minha? Como a sociedade me vê através da educação dada aos meus filhos? A opinião dos meus herdeiros, eu sei: a mãe chata, que nada deixa fazer. Então serei eu, de fato, a bruxa má do Velho Oeste? A madrasta da Branca de Neve? Ao tentar buscar a resposta, percebi que não era de todo má, não, nem, entretanto, a boazinha. E a única certeza que obtive foi a de que não há mesmo uma receita, uma fórmula mágica para educar um indivíduo. Há, no entanto, conceitos de vida que permeiam qualquer cultura, em qualquer parte do mundo. E isso eu aprendi quando Jesus chegou de vez à minha vida me ofertando os frutos do espírito. E são nesses frutos que venho trabalhando diária e continuamente. São nessas diretrizes bíblicas que minha fé está firmada e confiante. Assim, tudo aquilo que fiz, faço e continuarei fazendo é para exercer, confiante, o papel mais atuante e importante que Deus me permitiu interpretar: o de ser mãe. É fácil? Não! E quem disse que seria? Que Deus nos abençoe.

  • Publisher: Springer

The purpose of this book is to assess the potential effects of biotechnological approaches particularly genetic modification on biodiversity and the environment. All aspects of biodiversity such as ecological diversity, species diversity and genetic diversity are considered. Higher organisms contain a specific set of linear DNA molecules called chromosomes and a complete set of chromosomes in an organism comprises its genome. The collection of traits displayed by any organism (phenotype) depends on the genes present in its genome (genotype). The appearance of any specific trait also will depend on many other factors, including whether the gene(s) responsible for the trait is/are turned on (e...
