 Soil Quality, Sustainable Agriculture and Environmental Security in Central and Eastern Europe By C. B. Davis, F. P. Miller (auth.), M. J. Wilson, B. Maliszewska-Kordybach (eds.) 2000 | 375 Pages | ISBN: 0792363787 | PDF | 14 MB Agriculture is a crucial component of the economies of many of the countries in transition from a centrally-planned to a market economy and the sector is by no means immune to the environmental and socioeconomic problems confronting the countries as a whole. The concept of sustainable development provides a convenient framework for the formulation of government environmental policy for such countries, especially those of them that aspire to join the EU and would thus be expected to meet EU environmental standards. For agriculture, this inevitably involves appropriate strategies for balancing crop and animal production while protecting the quality of the national soil and water resources. There is thus an urgent need to compile, exchange and evaluate current information on the quality of soils in these countries, and to assess the potential impact of new management practices on the soil and on the wider environment.

Soft Computing in Data Science: 6th International Conference, SCDS 2021, Virtual Event, November 2-3, 2021, Proceedings by Azlinah Mohamed English | PDF | 2021 450 Pages | ISBN : 9811673330 | 48.6 MB This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 6th International Conference on Soft Computing in Data Science, SCDS 2021, which was held virtually in November 2021.  Ludwig von Mises, J. Kahane, "Socialism: An Economic and Sociological Analysis" English | 1988 | ISBN: 0913966630, 0913966622 | PDF | pages: 593 | 55.5 mb More than thirty years ago F. A. Hayek said of Socialism: "It was a work on political economy in the tradition of the great moral philosophers, a Montesquieu or Adam Smith, containing both acute knowledge and profound wisdom. . . . To none of us young men who read the book when it appeared was the world ever the same again." This is a newly annotated edition of the classic first published in German in 1922. It is the definitive refutation of nearly every type of socialism ever devised. Mises presents a wide-ranging analysis of society, comparing the results of socialist planning with those of free-market capitalism in all areas of life.
 Social Impact Measurement for a Sustainable Future: The Power of Aesthetics and Practical Implications by Richard Hazenberg English | EPUB | 2022 | 347 Pages | ISBN : 3030831515 | 3.4 MB This book explores the history of social impact measurement, offering justifications for the use of social impact measurement in modern society. It seeks to uncover the tensions inherent in social impact measurement, especially between creating and measuring social value creation. As the world becomes ever more globalised in its focus to deliver sustainable solutions to social and environmental problems, frameworks such as the United Nation's Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) provide basic structure through which social impact can be assessed and compared globally.
 Skew-elliptical distributions and their applications : a journey beyond normality By Marc G Genton 2004 | 396 Pages | ISBN: 1584884312 | PDF | 12 MB Content: This book reviews the state-of-the-art advances in skew-elliptical distributions and provides many new developments in a single volume, collecting theoretical results and applications previously scattered throughout the literature. The main goal of this research area is to develop flexible parametric classes of distributions beyond the classical normal distribution. The book is divided into two parts. The first part discusses theory and inference for skew-elliptical distribution. The second part presents applications and case studies in areas such as economics, finance, oceanography, climatology, environmetrics, engineering, image processing, astronomy, and biomedical science.

Hamlet, Macbeth, and King Lear are three of the most frequently adapted plays. They have been re-imagined as political theatre, comedic parody, Chinese opera, avant-garde theatre, and experimental theatre in Hong Kong, China, and Taiwan. This ground-breaking anthology features the first English translations of seven influential adaptations from 1987 to 2007 across a number of traditional and modern performance genres in Beijing, Shanghai, Hong Kong, and Taipei. Each of the book's three sections offers a pair of two contrasting versions of each tragedy - in two distinct genres - for comparative analysis. This anthology is an indispensable tool for the teaching and research of Sinophone theatre's engagement with Western classics in the late twentieth and early twenty-first centuries.

 Damian A Gonzalez Salzberg, "Sexuality and Transsexuality Under the European Convention on Human Rights: A Queer Reading of Human Rights Law" English | 2019 | ISBN: 1509914935, 150994530X | PDF | pages: 248 | 4.8 mb This book undertakes a critical analysis of international human rights law through the lens of queer theory. It pursues two main aims: first, to make use of queer theory to illustrate that the field of human rights law is underpinned by several assumptions that determine a conception of the subject that is gendered and sexual in specific ways. This gives rise to multiple legal and social consequences, some of which challenge the very idea of universality of human rights. Second, the book proposes that human rights law can actually benefit from a better understanding of queer critiques, since queer insights can help it to overcome heteronormative beliefs currently held. In order to achieve these main aims, the book focuses on the case law of the European Court of Human Rights, the leading legal authority in the field of international human rights law. The use of queer theory as the theoretical approach for these tasks serves to deconstruct several aspects of the Court's jurisprudence dealing with gender, sexuality, and kinship, to later suggest potential paths to reconstruct such features in a queer(er) and more universal manner. |
