This work will interest scholars, students, academics, and policy makers on the fields of Chinese and African politics, development studies, and international political economy.  Chemical Reactivity in Confined Systems: Theory, Modelling and Applications English | 2021 | ISBN: 1119684021 | 422 Pages | PDF | 18 MB Chemical Reactivity in Confined Systems: Theory and Applications presents a theoretical basis for the molecular phenomena observed in confined spaces. The book highlights state-of-the-art theoretical and computational approaches, with a focus on obtaining physically relevant clarification of the subject to enable the reader to build an appreciation of underlying chemical principles.  Change from the Inside Out: Making You, Your Team, and Your Organization Change-Capable English | 2021 | ISBN: 1523000392 | 264 Pages | EPUB | 2 MB Change initiatives fail because humans are hardwired to return to what's worked for us in the past.

Certified Ethical Hacker (CEH) Preparation Guide: Lesson-Based Review of Ethical Hacking and Penetration Testing English | 2021 | ISBN: 1484272579 | 217 Pages | PDF EPUB | 14 MB  Cell Biology and Translational Medicine, Volume 13: Stem Cells in Development and Disease English | 2021 | ISBN: 3030790576 | 195 Pages | PDF EPUB | 15 MB Much research has focused on the basic cellular and molecular biological aspects of stem cells. Much of this research has been fueled by their potential for use in regenerative medicine applications, which has in turn spurred growing numbers of translational and clinical studies. However, more work is needed if the potential is to be realized for improvement of the lives and well-being of patients with numerous diseases and conditions.  Celiac Disease by S. Devi Rampertab English | PDF | 2014 | 332 Pages | ISBN : 1461485592 | 3.8 MB Celiac Disease is an authoritative text intended to educate healthcare practitioners, gastroenterologists, physicians and nutritionists about the diverse manifestations, complications and management of gluten-sensitive enteropathy. The seventeen-chapter text provides the latest research on pathophysiology, including animal models, immunopathogenesis, genetics and the intestinal microflora. The book also features chapters on diagnosis, monitoring, complications and nutritional management, including therapies on the horizon. The text concludes with appendices that provide educational tools for symptom monitoring and dietary guidance.  Brain, Mind and Consciousness: Advances in Neuroscience Research by Petr Bob English | PDF | 2011 | 145 Pages | ISBN : 1461404355 | 1.7 MB Neuropsychological research on the neural basis of behavior generally asserts that brain mechanisms ultimately suffice to explain all psychologically described phenomena. This assumption stems from the idea that the brain consists entirely of material particles and fields, and that all causal mechanisms relevant to neuroscience can be formulated solely in terms of properties of these elements.  Blockchain and Artificial Intelligence: The World Rewired English | 2021 | ISBN: 3110661144 | 266 Pages | PDF | 1.26 MB Blockchain and artificial intelligence are perhaps the two most significant disruptive technologies this century and both will significantly rewire the world of global financial markets and the world in which we live. While blockchain offers a number of significant advantages over traditional forms of finance including lower cost and massive increases in operational efficiencies of traded markets, property records and a whole host of transaction processes, artificial intelligence is moving fast from basic structured machine learning doing menial yet important big data tasks like credit card fraud detection to predictive analysis and real-time real-world risk management and investment decision making.  Biosemiotic Literary Criticism: Genesis and Prospectus English | 2021 | ISBN: 3030724948 | 279 Pages | PDF | 5 MB This volume is based to a large extent on the understanding of biosemiotic literary criticism as a semiotic-model-making enterprise. For Jurij Lotman and Thomas A. Sebeok, "nature writing is essentially a model of the relationship between humans and nature" (Timo Maran); biosemiotic literary criticism, itself a form of nature writing and thus itself an ecological-niche-making enterprise, will be considered to be a model of modeling, a model of nature naturing. Modes and models of analysis drawn from Thomas A. Sebeok and Marcel Danesi's Forms of Meaning: Modeling Systems Theory and Semiotic Analysis as well as from Timo Maran's work on "modeling the environment in literature," Edwina Taborsky's writing on Peircean semiosis, and, of course, Jesper Hoffmeyer's formative work in biosemiotics are among the most important organizing elements for this volume.  Bioremediation and Biotechnology: Sustainable Approaches to Pollution Degradation by Khalid Rehman Hakeem English | PDF | 2020 | 334 Pages | ISBN : 3030356906 | 6.7 MB Toxic substances threatens aquatic and terrestrial ecosystems and ultimately human health.
