Now the time is ripe for a comprehensive book covering not only theoretical aspects, but also such mechanistic topics as principles and mechanisms of photoinduced charge injection, transport and trapping in DNA, sequence-dependent DNA dynamics, spectroscopic investigations of hole transport and much more. From the contents: * Principles and Mechanisms of Photoinduced Charge Injection, Transport and Trapping in DNA * Sequence-Dependent DNA Dynamics: The Regulator of DNA-Mediated Charge Transport * Excess Electron Transfer in DNA Probed with Flavin and Thymine Dimer Modified Oligonucleotides * Dynamics of Photoinitiated Hole and Electron Injection in Duplex DNA * Spectroscopic Investigation of Oxidative Hole Transfer via Adenine Hopping in DNA * Chemical Probing of Reductive Electron Transfer in DNA * Chemical Approach for Modulating Hole Transport in DNA * Spectroscopic Investigation of Charge Transfer in DNA * Spectroscopic Probing of Ultrafast Structural Relaxation and Electron Transfer Dynamics in DNA Edited by Hans-Achim Wagenknecht, and written by renowned international authors, this book provides an excellent overview with high quality contributions, making it a ''must-have'' for everyone working in the field.  Vladimir Latinovic, Gerard Mannion, Jason Welle O.F.M., "Catholicism Engaging Other Faiths: Vatican II and its Impact" English | 2018 | pages: 342 | ISBN: 3319985833 | PDF | 3,3 mb This book assesses how Vatican II opened up the Catholic Church to encounter, dialogue, and engagement with other world religions. Opening with a contribution from the President of the Pontifical Council for Interreligious Dialogue, Cardinal Jean-Louis Tauran, it next explores the impact, relevance, and promise of the Declaration Nostra Aetate before turning to consider how Vatican II in general has influenced interfaith dialogue and the intellectual and comparative study of world religions in the postconciliar decades, as well as the contribution of particular past and present thinkers to the formation of current interreligious and comparative theological methods. Additionally, chapters consider interreligious dialogue vis-à-vis theological anthropology in conciliar documents; openness to the spiritual practices of other faith traditions as a way of encouraging positive interreligious encounter; the role of lay and new ecclesial movements in interreligious dialogue; and the development of Monastic Interreligious Dialogue. Finally, it includes a range of perspectives on the fruits and future of Vatican's II's opening to particular faiths such as Judaism, Islam, Hinduism, and Buddhism.  Canada's Other Red Scare: Indigenous Protest and Colonial Encounters during the Global Sixties (Rethinking Canada in the World) by Scott Rutherford English | December 17th, 2020 | ISBN: 0228004063, 0228004055 | 208 pages | True EPUB | 4.39 MB Indigenous activism put small-town northern Ontario on the map in the 1960s and early 1970s. Kenora, Ontario, was home to a four-hundred-person march, popularly called "Canada's First Civil Rights March," and a two-month-long armed occupation of a small lakefront park. Canada's Other Red Scare shows how important it is to link the local and the global to broaden narratives of resistance in the 1960s; it is a history not of isolated events closed off from the present but of decolonization as a continuing process. Scott Rutherford explores with rigour and sensitivity the Indigenous political protest and social struggle that took place in Northwestern Ontario and Treaty 3 territory from 1965 to 1974.  Campaigns of the Norman Conquest By Matthew Bennett 2001 | 94 Pages | ISBN: 1841762288 | PDF | 6 MB This book provides a full introduction to the Norman Conquest, an event which resulted in dramatic changes to the nation's aristocracy, church and administration. It brought a new language and cultural influences and revolutionised military architecture with the introduction of the castle. This profound impact was not brought about as the result of a single battle and it took a five-year war for William to establish control over his new kingdom. The campaigns are studied in detail, with maps showing how William's energy and strategic intelligence enabled him to defeat his formidable opponents and create a new order.

Biochemical Individuality By Roger Williams 1998 | 312 Pages | ISBN: 0879838930 | PDF | 2 MB There is no such thing as an average person, we are all genetically and biologically unique. But when sperm meets egg, our characteristics are not locked in stone. This work argues that bad genes do not necessarily cause disease by themselves, and nutrition and environment can alter the outcome. ![Bill Gates - Holiday 2020 Recommendations [Collection]](https://i114.fastpic.ru/big/2020/1221/3a/309c361a3bc2670297e472ab2e7afb3a.jpeg) Bill Gates - Holiday 2020 Recommendations [Collection] English | ISBN: N/A | 5 Ebooks | EPUB | 66.74 MB In tough times-and there's no doubt that 2020 qualifies as tough times-those of us who love to read turn to all kinds of different books. This year, sometimes I chose to go deeper on a difficult subject, like the injustices that underlie this year's Black Lives Matter protests. Other times I needed a change of pace, something lighter at the end of the day. As a result, I read a wide range of books, and a lot of excellent ones. Here are five books on a variety of subjects that I'd recommend as we wrap up 2020. I hope you find something that helps you-or the book lover in your life-finish the year on a good note.

Belo: From Newspapers to New Media By Judith Garrett Segura 2008 | 329 Pages | ISBN: 0292718454 | PDF | 4 MB Founded in Galveston in 1842 with the launch of the Daily News, the Belo Corporation entered the twenty-first century as a powerhouse conglomerate, owning four daily newspapers (including the Dallas Morning News), twenty-six television and cable stations, and over thirty interactive Web sites. The first comprehensive work to bring to life this remarkable success story, Belo blends biography with a history of corporate strategies. Drawing on company archives and private papers of key figures, including A. H. Belo and G. B. Dealey, former company archivist Judith Garrett Segura brings to life important chapters in the cultural life of Texas, from Galveston's days as the largest and most vibrant town in the Republic of Texas, through the wars that followed statehood, periods of economic hardship, and the effects of sweeping social change. Turning points in the company's history, such as the sale of its Galveston paper when company revenues were dramatically affected by candid reporting of Ku Klux Klan activities in the 1920s, highlight crucial elements of the press's role in the life of a community. Segura also charts technological advances, from the telegraph and the typographers' union to the dawn of the Information Age. Finally, she includes the most complete portrait of the Dallas Times Herald Company to date, documenting the rise and fall of Belo's chief rival. This is a story of frontier survival and futuristic thinking, marketing genius and historic reporting, nurtured by a family of mavericks.
