![]() M. P. Hanaghan, "Reading Sidonius' Epistles" English | ISBN: 1108429211 | 2019 | 246 pages | PDF | 2 MB Sidonius Apollinaris' letters offer a vivid series of glimpses into an otherwise sparsely documented period. His rich anecdotes feature the events, characters, and moments that defined his life, ranging from the treason trial of Arvandus to the Visigothic raiding of Clermont, from the corrupt and vile Seronatus to the holy widow Eutropia, and the day-to-day incidents that confronted a Gallo-Roman poet, aristocrat, and bishop as the Late Roman West transitioned into the barbarian successor kingdoms. Like any good storyteller, Sidonius exploited a wide array of narratological tools, manipulating temporality for dramatic effect, sketching his heroes and villains in vivid detail, and recreating witty dialogue in a collection that is highly organised and carefully strategised. This book provides a fuller understanding of his contribution to Latin literature, as a careful arranger of his self-image, a perceptive exploiter of narrative dynamics, and an influential figure in Late Antique Gaul. ![]() Reading Minds : How Childhood Teaches Us to Understand People by Henry M. Wellman English | 2020 | ISBN: 0190878673 | 201 Pages | PDF | 7.9 MB ![]() Raptor Medicine, Surgery, and Rehabilitation, 3rd Edition by David Scott English | PDF | 2021 | 361 Pages | ISBN : 1789246105 | 20.7 MB Comprehensive, practical and extensively illustrated, this book accumulates years of practical knowledge when dealing with injured birds of prey. Written by a practicing veterinarian it is a concise, helpful, day-to-day guide which outlines everything from handling and the intake examination, through to practical procedures and the treatment of a comprehensive range of conditions and injuries. Also covering advice on housing, rehabilitation and eventual release, and fully updated throughout, this new edition incorporates new images as well as new and expanded information on electrocution, pesticides, feeding puppets and species habitats. ![]() Rapid Ethnographies: A Practical Guide by Cecilia Vindrola-Padros 2021 | ISBN: 110849336X, 1108736998 | English | 186 pages | PDF | 3 MB Rapid ethnographies are used in a wide range of fields to speed up research quickly and effectively. This book is the first practical guide to rapid ethnographies, helping readers to improve skills in the design, implementation, dissemination and use of findings generated through rapid ethnographic research. It gives advice and guidelines for carrying out rapid and rigorous research and provides details of tools used in the field. Vignettes reflecting on the author's research are included throughout, including observations on research carried out during the COVID-19 pandemic, to highlight how challenges of conducting rapid ethnographies can be overcome. Case studies across a range of subjects are also included, to demonstrate how rapid ethnographies can be applied in practice. With its useful tools and easy-to-read format, it will be used by teachers and students, as well as researchers wanting to successfully implement rapid ethnographies in their own work. ![]() Radio Broadcasting: A History of the Airwaves by Gordon Bathgate English | 2020 | ISBN: 1526769409 | 290 Pages | True EPUB | 17 MB ![]() Rebeiz, "RF MEMS: Theory, Design, and Technology" English | 2003 | ISBN: 0471201693 | 506 pages | PDF | 17.9 MB Ultrasmall Radio Frequency and Micro-wave Microelectromechanical systems (RF MEMs), such as switches, varactors, and phase shifters, exhibit nearly zero power consumption or loss. For this reason, they are being developed intensively by corporations worldwide for use in telecommunications equipment. This book acquaints readers with the basics of RF MEMs and describes how to design practical circuits and devices with them. The author, an acknowledged expert in the field, presents a range of real-world applications and shares many valuable tricks of the trade. ![]() Helen Palmer, "Queer Defamiliarisation: Writing, Mattering, Making Strange " English | ISBN: 1474434142 | 2020 | 224 pages | PDF | 1009 KB Helen Palmer examines the Russian formalist concept of defamiliarisation from a contemporary critical perspective, bringing together new materialist feminisms, experimental linguistic formalism and queer theory. ![]() Python Data Analysis: Perform data collection, data processing, wrangling, visualization, and model building using Python, 3rd Edition by Avinash Navlani ![]() Protein Protocols Handbook By John M. Walker 2002 | 1172 Pages | ISBN: 0896039404 | PDF | 5 MB Univ. of Hertfordshire, Hatfield, UK. Provides a cross-section of analytical techniques commonly used for proteins and peptides. Each chapter opens with a description of the basic theory behind the method being described. ![]() Protein Nanotechnology: Protocols, Instrumentation, and Applications By Tuan Vo-Dinh (auth.), Tuan Vo-Dinh (eds.) 2005 | 466 Pages | ISBN: 1588293106 | PDF | 14 MB Rapidly emerging at the intersection of nanotechnology, materials science, and molecular biology, the field of nanobiotechnology promises to elucidate many life processes at the molecular-level previously invisible to human inquiry, and thereby dramatically to transform diagnostics, therapy, and drug discovery in this postgenomic world. In Protein Nanotechnology: Protocols, Instrumentation, and Applications, leading experts in nanobiotechnology comprehensively review the most recent advances in instrumentation and methodology, as well as their applications in genomics and proteomics. The authors provide a wide variety of techniques and methods for dealing with protein functions and structures at the nanoscale level, including nanostructured systems, nanomaterials, carbon nanotubes and nanowires, optical nanosensors, and nanoelectrodes. Among the highlights are techniques for the in vivo tracking of biochemical processes using fluorescent molecular probes and nanosensors, and the exploration of biochemical processes and submicroscopic structures of living cells at unprecedented resolutions using near-field optics. Also discussed is the development of nanocarrier methodology for the targeted delivery of drugs whose shells are conjugated with antibodies for targeting specific antigens. The protocols follow the successful Methods in Molecular Biology™ series format, each offering step-by-step laboratory instructions, an introduction outlining the principle behind the technique, lists of the necessary equipment and reagents, and tips on troubleshooting and avoiding known pitfalls. Comprehensive and authoritative, Protein Nanotechnology: Protocols, Instrumentation, and Applications provides investigators a wide variety of readily reproducible techniques and methods for exploring both protein functions and structures at the nanoscale level and their powerful new biological and medical applications. |
