 Normans and Early Plantagenets (An Alternative History of Britain) by Timothy Venning English | January 31st, 2020 | ISBN: 178346271X | 240 pages | True EPUB | 0.93 MB Continuing his exploration of the pathways of British history, Timothy Venning examines the turning points of the period from the death of William I to the reign of Edward III and a little beyond. As always, he discusses the crucial junctions at which History could easily have taken a different turn and analyses the possible and likely results. While necessarily speculative to a degree, the scenarios are all highly plausible and rooted in a firm understanding of actually events and their context. In so doing, Timothy Venning gives the reader a clearer understanding of the factors at play and why things happened the way they did, as well as a tantalizing view of what might so easily have been different.  Nomads of the Mediterranean: Trade and Contact in the Bronze and Iron Ages : Studies in Honor of Michal Artzy by Ayelet Gilboa, Assaf Yasur-Landau  Reece Jones, "Nobody Is Protected: How the Border Patrol Became the Most Dangerous Police Force in the United States" English | ISBN: 1640095209 | 2022 | EPUB | 288 pages | 1 MB An urgent look at the U.S. Border Patrol from its xenophobic founding to its assault on the Fourth Amendment in its quest to become a national police force  No More Free Lunch: Reflections on the Cuban Economic Reform Process and Challenges for Transformation By Claes Brundenius, Ricardo Torres Pérez (auth.), Claes Brundenius, Ricardo Torres Pérez (eds.) 2014 | 260 Pages | ISBN: 3319009176 | PDF | 3 MB In September 2010, the Cuban government decided to embark on an economic reform program, unprecedented after the Revolution in 1959. This opened up opportunities for Cuban economists and scholars to participate in the development of the reform program. Thanks to grants from SSRC (Social Sciences Research Council, New York) and the Norwegian Ministry of Foreign Affairs, several researchers from the Cuban think tank CEEC (Center for Studies of the Cuban Economy, Havana) got an opportunity to visit countries that could be of interest for the reform process, notably Vietnam, but also Brazil, South Africa and Norway. The result of these field visits and a subsequent workshop involving contributions from Cuban as well as non-Cuban scholars, this volume showcases unprecedented new insights into the process and prospects for reform along many dimensions, including foreign direct investment, import substitution, entrepreneurship and business creation, science and technology development, and fiscal policies. The resulting analysis, in a comparative perspective, provides a framework for future research as well as for business practice and policymaking.

New Thinking in GIScience English | 2022 | ISBN: 9811938156 | 667 Pages | PDF EPUB (True) | 39 MB This book is a collection of seminal position essays by leading researchers on new development in Geographic Information Sciences (GIScience), covering a wide range of topics and representing a variety of perspectives. The authors propose enrichments and extensions to the conceptual framework of GIScience; discuss a series of transformational methodologies and technologies for analysis and modeling; elaborate on key issues in innovative approaches to data acquisition and integration, across earth sensing to social sensing; and outline frontiers in application domains, spanning from natural science to humanities and social science, e.g., urban science, land use and planning, social governance, transportation, crime, and public health, just name a few. The book provides an overview of the strategic directions on GIScience research and development. It will benefit researchers and practitioners in the field who are seeking a high-level reference regarding those directions.  Jerry Stahl, "Nein, Nein, Nein!: One Man's Tale of Depression, Psychic Torment, and a Bus Tour of the Holocaust " English | ISBN: 1636140254 | 2022 | EPUB | 264 pages | 2 MB A guided group tour to concentration camps in Poland and Germany allows Stahl to confront personal and historical demons with both deep despair and savage humor  Olivera Petrovich, "Natural-Theological Understanding from Childhood to Adulthood " English | ISBN: 1138939471 | 2018 | 160 pages | PDF | 3 MB It is commonly assumed that young children only begin to think about God as a result of some educational or cultural influence, perhaps provided by their parents. Natural-Theological Understanding from Childhood to Adulthood asks if there is anything about God that children can know independently of any specific cultural input; does their knowledge of God simply come from their everyday encounters with the surrounding world?  Nano Emulsions in Enhanced Oil Recovery English | 2022 | ISBN: 303106688X | 89 Pages | PDF EPUB (True) | 10 MB This book focuses on the use of nanoemulsion in enhanced oil recovery, along with a brief information about the emulsion and its types and different physico-chemical properties used to analyse the efficiency of the emulsions and nanoemulsions. The author discussed about the nanoemulsion, classification of emulsions and nanoemulsion and use of nanoemulsions in petroleum industry. A special attention has been laid on nanoemulsion and its advantages over commercial product, physico-chemical properties like emulsification, interfacial tension and wettability alteration study as a screening criteria for application in EOR. Given this content, this book offers an assessment for the undergraduate and postgraduate students of petroleum and chemical engineering along with the researchers working in the field of EOR. It is a subject of interest for oil and gas industry professionals. |
