Law and Justice in South America and Europe by Cristiano Paixão English | PDF | 2021 | 318 Pages | ISBN : 3030675017 | 4.5 MB This present book examines some of the key features of the interplay between legal history, authoritarian rule and political transitions in Brazil and other countries from the end of 20th Century until today. This book casts light on these aspects of the role of law and legal actors/institutions.  Climate Resilience and Environmental Sustainability Approaches: Global Lessons and local Challenges by Anubha Kaushik English | PDF,EPUB | 2021 | 418 Pages | ISBN : 9811609012 | 37.7 MB The book is about climate resilience and environmental sustainability approaches, discussing knowledge at global level and the local challenges, presented by authors from various countries. Environmental sustainability is at stake and implications of climate change are clearly visible in most parts of the world. In the times of the prevailing global environmental crisis, this book discusses key issues of climate change and sustainable energy alternatives, waste management and development.  China's Sustainability Transitions: Low Carbon and Climate-Resilient Plan for Carbon Neutral 2060 by Ali Cheshmehzangi English | PDF,EPUB | 2021 | 223 Pages | ISBN : 9811626200 | 22.9 MB Ali Cheshmehzangi: Professor of Architecture and Urban Design, Head of Department of Architecture and Built Environment, at the University of Nottingham Ningbo China (UNNC); and Specially Appointed Professor at Network for Education and Research on Peace and Sustainability (NERPS), Hiroshima University, Japan.  China's Solution for Precise Poverty Alleviation: The Case of Guizhou by Guiyang Poverty English | PDF,EPUB | 2021 | 214 Pages | ISBN : 9811574308 | 2.8 MB This book select successful cases of poverty reduction and alleviation in the Guizhou province of China, which reflects the highest number and widest distribution of people living in poverty. The local government seeks to achieve sustainable development goals and find multiple solutions to the problem.. The book introduces local experiences and presents the whole process from policy making to practice.  Cardiac Regeneration English | 2021 | ISBN: 1071606700 | 350 Pages | PDF EPUB | 57 MB This detailed book addresses major goals of regenerative medicine and the cardiovascular research community with techniques to replenish lost cardiomyocytes, avoid scar-associated pathology, and improve myocardial infarction (MI) outcomes. The collection begins with a section on cardiac injury models, including zebrafish, neonatal and adult mice, and pigs, and continues with sections covering culturing cardiomyocytes from different species as well as methods for labeling or manipulation of cardiac tissue for the purpose of answering questions in regeneration. Written for the highly successful Methods in Molecular Biology series, chapters include introductions to their respective topics, lists of the necessary materials and reagents, step-by-step, readily reproducible laboratory protocols, and tips on troubleshooting and avoiding known pitfalls.  Carbon Emission Calculation Methods for Highway Tunnel Construction English | 2022 | ISBN: 9811653070 | 242 Pages | PDF | 9 MB This book introduces the research background and significance of carbon emissions in the tunnel industry and systematically reviewed the research progresses of carbon emission researches for tunnels, LCA (life cycle assessment) research framework, and uncertainty research progress. The authors propose a novel modular carbon emission calculation method for highway tunnel construction and expounds on the modular LCA system boundary theory of tunnel construction. This method does not require abundant knowledge of LCA modeling, which is convenient for general engineering and technical personnel to calculate the carbon emission level of tunnel construction. The calculation formulas for input and carbon emissions of each module are provided. It also analyzes the parameter uncertainty, model uncertainty, and scenario uncertainty of the carbon emissions from tunnel construction by the Monte Carlo method. Further, this book proposes the fitting model of carbon emissions of unit engineering quantity in tunnel construction, which benefits to simplify the calculation of carbon emissions.This book is mainly aimed at engineering and technical personnel in the construction industry, especially tunnel and underground engineering, including tunnel design engineers; tunnel construction engineers, experts, and scholars; tunnel owners; management departments.  Capitalism and the Dark Forces of Time and Ignorance: Economic and Political Expectations by David Harrison English | PDF,EPUB | 2021 | 152 Pages | ISBN : 3030783936 | 2 MB This book explores the role of expectations within the modern capitalist system. Through looking at how they are formed and develop, the impact of events that lead to a collapse in expectations, such as a major financial crisis, is examined to highlight the precarious and unstable nature of the economic system. With a particular focus on the UK and USA, it is also considered how public policy and institutions can shift the balance away from speculation and back towards enterprise.  CPT Invariance and the Spin-Statistics Connection English | 2016 | ISBN: 0198728808 | 201 Pages | PDF | 2 MB This book seeks to answer the question "What explains CPT invariance and the spin-statistics connection?" These properties play foundational roles in relativistic quantum field theories (RQFTs), are supported by high-precision experiments, and figure into explanations of a wide range of phenomena, from antimatter, to the periodic table of the elements, to superconductors and superfluids. They can be derived in RQFTs by means of the famous CPT and Spin-Statistics  COVID-19: Environmental Sustainability and Sustainable Development Goals English | 2021 | ISBN: 9811638594 | 192 Pages | PDF | 4 MB This book highlights the impact of COVID-19 on environmental sustainability and SDG's, using various case studies. The year 2020 was a historical year mainly due to the pandemic caused by COVID-19 and it influenced or affected the global economy, business models and the industrial sectors, thus impacting sustainability in various ways. Given that sustainability has many faces and facets, it is worthwhile to deal with the relation (or impact) of COVID-19 on various elements of sustainability. This book presents how COVID-19 has influenced Environmental Sustainability along with the SDG's. |
