Human health as well as aquatic and terrestrial ecosystems are threatened from increa sing levels of environmental radiation of various sources, many of them of anthropoge nic causality: large areas of the former Soviet Union suffer from radioactive pollution, in particular after the Chemobyl accident; the increase in the incidence of UVB radiati on at the Earth's surface as a result of a progressive depletion of stratospheric ozone is a global problem that requires international concerted actions; in areas of former uranium mining the natural radiation level is substantially increased due to elevated radon levels; a growing portion of the population involved in air traffic is exposed to inc...

On March 13, 1989, the entire Quebec power grid collapsed, automatic garage doors in California suburbs began to open and close without apparent reason, and microchip production came to a halt in the Northeast; in space, communications satellites had to be manually repointed after flipping upside down, and pressure readings on hydrogen tank supplies on board the Space Shuttle Discovery peaked, causing NASA to consider aborting the mission. What was the cause of all these seemingly disparate events? Sten Odenwald gives convincing evidence of the mischievous—and potentially catastrophic—power of solar storms and the far-reaching effects of the coming "big one" brewing in the sun and estima...
Fundamentals of Radiation Biology presents a contemporary, comprehensive review of the interactions between ionizing radiations and biological materials, tracking the consequences to three inevitable endpoints: cell restitution, cell death, or cell transformation.The introductory narrative is followed by examination of larger scale phenomena including tissue responses to radiation injury, organ failure modes, and resultant human illness including cancer. Ultimately, Fundamentals of Radiation Biology considers circumstantial radiation incidents impacting biological systems including radiological terrorism and radiation pollution remediation. Chapters presenting an overview of carcinogenesis a...
As culturally-diverse students feel trapped in failing public schools and abandoned by the system school choice offers a way out and a way up for students who have not succeeded in existing public schools. Many of the intractable problems that plague culturally diverse students are deeply rooted in the poverty, unemployment, crime, racism, and cultural differences that pervade the neighborhoods around them. Educators who work in our nation's schools represent the conscience of a society because they shape the conditions under which future generations learn about themselves and their relationships to others in the world. Educators, families and community members need to reinvigorate the language, social relations, and politics of schooling. We need to address the issues of school culture, poverty and violence. We need to look at new and future trends in education. Our goal is to achieve results. Parents, teachers and students must come together to make a difference. Ideas and people can change the course of history.
Buku ini merupakan pengembangan ide-ide yang pernah ditulis dalam buku sebelumnya, Studies in the Theoly of Ideology, dalam bingkai "semangat dekonstruksi kritis". Buku tersebut memfokuskan pembahasannya pada kritik terhadap sejumlah pemikir terkemuka tentang teori sosial kontemporer. Inti persoalan yang diusulkan adalah mengajukan beberapa ide konstruktif tentang karakter dan peran ideologi, hubungannya dengan bahasa, kekuasaan, dan konteks sosial, serta memberikan cara yang memungkinkan ideologi dianalisis dan ditafsirkan berdasarkan kasus-kasus tertentu. Lalu, ide-ide tersebut dikembangkan dan dipadukan dalam suatu pemahaman teoretis yang sistematis di dalam buku ini. Pada bagian tertentu...
Kekerasan telah menjadi warna politik di Indonesia, terutama sejak 1965. Berbagai kekerasan terus berulang. Sejak dari peristiwa Tanjung Priok, Tragedi 27 Juli, Mei 98, kasus-kasus bom di berbagai wilayah hingga kasus-kasus kekerasan terkini. Pelakunya bukan saja aparatur negara, masyarakat sipil dengan mempertaruhkan berbagai kepentingan, juga terlibat dalam aksi kekerasan, yang bahkan mengarah pada kekerasan ekstrem dan pelanggaran hak-hak asasi manusia. Buku ini memperlihatkan keterkaitan antara kekuasaan, kekerasan negara, dan munculnya sikap "banal" sehingga masyarakat tanpa sungkan-sungkan melakukan aksi kekerasan.
