English | 2021 | ISBN: 3030795365 | 278 Pages | PDF | 3 MB In times of pandemic and global economic crisis, little more than a decade after the last, there are serious questions about how the liberal order can stand, who its friends are, and what the future will look like. This edited collection provides a comprehensive overview of the principles and stakes at play in the dispute between liberalism and socialism. It explores the 21st century appeal of socialism, particularly to millennials and other relatively young citizens, and shows why modern classical liberalism and neoliberalism have generated tepid support, leading to the resurgence of socialism after it was thought dead and buried due to the dramatic failures of statist models in 1989. ![]() Learning DevOps: The complete guide to accelerate collaboration with Jenkins, Kubernetes, Terraform and Azure DevOps by Mikael Krief ![]() Learn Algorithmic Trading: Build and deploy algorithmic trading systems and strategies using Python and advanced data analysis Edition by Sebastien Donadio ![]() Justice before the Law by Michael Huemer English | PDF | 2021 | 375 Pages | ISBN : 3030675424 | 3.3 MB America's legal system harbors serious, widespread injustices. Many defendants are sent to prison for nonviolent offenses, including many victimless crimes. Convicts often serve draconian sentences in crowded prisons rife with abuse. Almost all defendants are convicted without trial because prosecutors threaten defendants with drastically higher sentences if they request a trial. Most Americans are terrified of encountering any kind of legal trouble, knowing that both civil and criminal courts are extremely slow, unreliable, and expensive to use. ![]() Introduction to Modeling and Numerical Methods for Biomedical and Chemical Engineers English | 2022 | ISBN: 3030764486 | 292 Pages | PDF | 4 MB This textbook introduces the concepts and tools that biomedical and chemical engineering students need to know in order to translate engineering problems into a numerical representation using scientific fundamentals. Modeling concepts focus on problems that are directly related to biomedical and chemical engineering. A variety of computational tools are presented, including MATLAB, Excel, Mathcad, and COMSOL, and a brief introduction to each tool is accompanied by multiple computer lab experiences. The numerical methods covered are basic linear algebra and basic statistics, and traditional methods like Newton's method, Euler Integration, and trapezoidal integration. The book presents the reader with numerous examples and worked problems, and practice problems are included at the end of each chapter. ![]() Introduction to Fluorescence Sensing Volume 1: Materials and Devices by Alexander P. Demchenko English | EPUB | 2020 | 673 Pages | ISBN : 3030601544 | 1203.4 MB This book provides systematic knowledge of basic principles in the design of fluorescence sensing and imaging techniques together with critical analysis of recent developments. Fluorescence is the most popular technique in chemical and biological sensing because of its ultimate sensitivity, high temporal and spatial resolution and versatility that enables imaging within the living cells. ![]() Internet Philanthropy in China by Yidan Chen English | PDF,EPUB | 2021 | 442 Pages | ISBN : 9811625654 | 27.2 MB This book is the work of Charles Chen Yidan, "the Father of China's Internet Philanthropy". It is based on the long-term research and practices of Tencent Research Institute and the Tencent Foundation. ![]() International Relations and Heritage: Patchwork in Times of Plurality English | 2021 | ISBN: 3030779904 | 463 Pages | PDF | 7 MB Patchwork in times of plurality encompasses the multitude of actions as a revealing symbol of ethos, actors, organisms, and manifestations of preservation and dialogue frontiers. This plural metaphor, almost like a patchwork, aggregates and yet segregates, conforms, but disfigures, and boosts the meanings which represent this new field that international relations have been recently crossing. Just like the mirror metaphor - that reflects everything to all and, sometimes, intervenes in distortions - the patchwork analogy allowed the book to take responsibility for the disclosure of preservation actions on a global scale. The book has a pioneering role insofar since it is the only publication with such characteristics, concerns, and coverage. The work studies the interconnection between cultural properties and international relations by understanding them as a mosaic before the bridges that intertwine people and borders. ![]() International Practice Development in Health and Social Care 2nd Edition English | 2021 | ISBN: 1119698359 | 301 Pages | PDF | 6 MB The second edition of International Practice Development in Health and Social Care remains the definitive resource for all those responsible for facilitating innovation and change in health and social care practice at every level. Fully revised and updated throughout, this new edition preserves its focus on developing person-centred, safe and effective evidence-based care that reflects the most recent health service modernisation agendas, clinical governance strategies, and quality improvement initiatives worldwide. |
