 Victoria M. Follette, Jacqueline Pistorello, Steven C. Hayes, "Finding Life Beyond Trauma" English | 2007 | ISBN: 1572244976 | 280 pages | EPUB | 1.4 MB If you've experienced trauma-whether as a result of common life events like accidents or abusive personal relationships or extraordinary experiences like war or natural disasters-you may find that the pain and emotional unease you feel don't go away over time. In fact, they may get worse. But the trauma you experienced lies in the unchangeable past. Because of your strength and perseverance, you survived, and now the rest of your life stretches before you. How do you want to live it? Finding Life Beyond Trauma is about living life well after a traumatic event. It uses the powerful techniques of acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT) to help you take a different approach to painful feelings and chart a new course for a rich and meaningful life.

 Fiber Fueled: 51 Plant-Based High-Fiber Recipes for Gut Health, Weight Loss and Optimizing Your Microbiome By Jules Neumann English | 2020 | ASIN : B08MC8RWDD | 143 pages | EPUB, MOBI | 17 MB  Energetic Materials: Processing and Characterization of Particles By Ulrich Teipel 2000 | 637 Pages | ISBN: 3527302409 | PDF | 14 MB Incorporation of particular components with specialized properties allows one to tailor the end product's properties. For instance, the sensitivity, burning behavior, thermal or mechanical properties or stability of energetic materials can be affected and even controllably varied through incorporation of such ingredients. This book examines particle technologies as applied to energetic materials such as propellants and explosives, thus filling a void in the literature on this subject. Following an introduction covering general features of energetic materials, the first section of this book describes methods of manufacturing particulate energetic materials, including size reduction, crystallization, atomization, particle formation using supercritical fluids and microencapsulation, agglomeration phenomena, special considerations in mixing explosive particles and the production of nanoparticles. The second section discusses the characterization of particulate materials. Techniques and methods such as particle size analysis, morphology elucidation and the determination of chemical and thermal properties are presented. The wettability of powders and rheological behavior of suspensions and solids are also considered. Furthermore, methods of determining the performance of particular energetic materials are described. Each chapter deals with fundamentals and application possibilities of the various methods presented, with particular emphasis on issues applicable to particulate energetic materials. The book is thus equally relevant for chemists, physicists, material scientists, chemical and mechanical engineers and anyone interested or engaged in particle processing and characterization technologies.

 Sarah Guri-rosenblit, "Digital Technologies in Higher Education: Sweeping Expectations and Actual Effects" English | 2009-01-20 | ISBN: 1606922386 | 192 pages | PDF | 6,4 mb Technology affects nowadays practically most activities in our life. The new digital technologies have permeated economy markets, politics, our workplaces, the ways we communicate with each other, our home activities, as well as operation of all levels of education from kindergarten to doctoral studies.  Anat Pick, "Creaturely Poetics: Animality and Vulnerability in Literature and Film" English | 2011 | pages: 265 | ISBN: 0231147872 | PDF | 2,8 mb Simone Weil once wrote that "the vulnerability of precious things is beautiful because vulnerability is a mark of existence," establishing a relationship between vulnerability, beauty, and existence transcending the separation of species. Her conception of a radical ethics and aesthetics could be characterized as a new poetics of species, forcing a rethinking of the body's significance, both human and animal. Exploring the "logic of flesh" and the use of the body to mark species identity, Anat Pick reimagines a poetics that begins with the vulnerability of bodies, not the omnipotence of thought. Pick proposes a "creaturely" approach based on the shared embodiedness of humans and animals and a postsecular perspective on human-animal relations. She turns to literature, film, and other cultural texts, challenging the familiar inventory of the human: consciousness, language, morality, and dignity. Reintroducing Weil's elaboration of such themes as witnessing, commemoration, and collective memory, Pick identifies the animal within all humans, emphasizing the corporeal and its issues of power and freedom. In her poetics of the creaturely, powerlessness is the point at which aesthetic and ethical thinking must begin.  Cracking the Quebec Code: The 7 keys to understanding Quebecers by Pierre Duhamel, Jean-Marc Léger, Jacques Nantel English | September 29th, 2016 | ISBN: 1988002362 | 192 pages | True EPUB | 2.74 MB The key to opening the hearts, minds and wallets of Quebecers. Most Quebecers come from a French culture, live in an English society and have an American lifestyle. Who are Quebecers exactly? What do they want? What are their aspirations? This book paints a surprising, sometimes unsettling, and consistently uncompromising portrait of the Quebec personality.  Conservation Science: Heritage Materials By Eric May, Mark Jones 2006 | 391 Pages | ISBN: 0854046593 | PDF | 6 MB Conservation of artefacts and heritage materials is an increasingly popular and fascinating area, spanning both historical and scientific disciplines. Materials come in many forms ranging from sunken ships to tapestries, from buildings to books. With this wide range of matrices and materials to analyse and preserve, an interdisciplinary approach is needed drawing upon skills from many areas of knowledge. Conservation Science: Heritage Materials links these fields of research together forming a comprehensive overview that discusses analytical aspects, wall paintings, organic and inorganic materials. It provides up to date information on subjects including research on decay and degradation and an understanding of the deterioration mechanisms of historic and artistic works. Also included are a number of case studies of particularly important finds including the upkeep of the historic British 16th century warship, the Mary Rose, and the preservation of the sail on Nelson's ship HMS Victory. This book provides an essential guide and reference source for those working in all areas of heritage conservation. |
