 Industry and empire: from 1750 to the present day By Eric John Hobsbawm 1999 | 432 Pages | ISBN: 0140257888 | EPUB | 4 MB This outstanding history describes and accounts for Britain's rise as the world's first industrial world power, its decline from the temporary dominance of the pioneer, its rather special relationship with the rest of the world (notably the underdeveloped countries) and the effects of all these on the life of the British people.  Joji Parambath, "Industrial Hydraulic Systems and Circuits - Basic Level: In the SI Unit" English | 2020 | ASIN: B08BDSDDFF, B08BFRL7FM, B09HQCFWHR | EPUB | pages: 293 | 5.0 mb Industrial Hydraulic technology is expanding and as fascinating as ever. Hydraulic systems provide the muscle power to run the machines with the smoothest control possibilities. Many professionals are designing, constructing, and maintaining hydraulic systems every day. Several budding engineers are initiated into the technology of fluid power now and then. Therefore, the spread of technological information on fluid power is essential for the advancement of fluid power technology. The textbook on 'Industrial Hydraulics - Basic Level (in the SI Units)' is written to meet this objective. The textbook deals with the components and circuits of hydraulic systems. The book uses the SI system of units. The fundamentals required to understand the core topics are given initially. The book describes the topics on power packs, hydraulic actuators, and control valves, in detail. The book also presents the maintenance, troubleshooting, and safety aspects of hydraulic systems. The book has been written by a professional trainer who has trained thousands of professionals and students, over 25 years. If you are looking for a more in-depth knowledge into fluid power, then this book is a valuable resource that will assist you in your quest for professional development.  T.V. Paul, "India-China Maritime Competition: The Security Dilemma at Sea " English | ISBN: 0367001543 | 2019 | 206 pages | EPUB | 2 MB This edited volume critically examines the concept of the "security dilemma" and applies it to India-China maritime competition. Though frequently employed in academic discussion and popular commentary on the Sino-Indian relationship, the term has rarely been critically analysed. The volume addresses the gap by examining whether the security dilemma is a useful concept in explaining the naval and foreign policy strategies of India and China. China's Belt and Road Initiative and its expansive engagement in the Indian Ocean Region have resulted in India significantly scaling up investment in its navy, adding ships, naval aircraft and submarines. This volume investigates how the rivalry is playing out in different sub-regions of the Indian Ocean, and the responses of other powers, notably the United States and prominent Southeast Asian states. Their reactions to the Sino-Indian rivalry are an underexplored topic and the chapters in this book reveal how they selectively use that rivalry while trying to steer clear of making definite choices. The book concludes with recommendations on mitigating the security dilemma.  Lingo Valley Inc, "Inclusive Language: A Writing Guide on Respecting Diversity" English | 2020 | ASIN: B08F33CFJY, B08XFVWYB8 | EPUB | pages: 50 | 0.7 mb Building an inclusive social and work environment starts with communication and choosing our words thoughtfully and carefully.  In-Depth Calculus: by Abhijit Kumar Misra English | 2022 | ISBN: N/A | ASIN: B09WKN951F | 874 pages | PDF | 42 Mb The discipline of CALCULUS is very broad and widely used in every branch of the physical  In Vitro Toxicity Testing Protocols By Chris K. Atterwill (auth.), Sheila O'Hare, Chris K. Atterwill (eds.) 1995 | 332 Pages | ISBN: 0896032825 | PDF | 11 MB In vitro toxicology is one of the most rapidly expanding areas of biological research today. It is generally conceded that this is a result of pressure from the public for safer products and environmental conditions and, in these recessionary times, pressure from company accountants, who often perceive in vitro experimentation as a cheaper option than lawsuits, fines, and expensive remediation. Toxicologists themselves form one group whose vigor and influence on the evolution of in vitro toxicology is often underestimated. Many toxicologists have for some time been unhappy with the quantity (often a result of unnecessary duplication), the reliability, and the ethical circumstances of much animal experimentation. It is hoped that the present book, In Vitro Toxicity Testing Protocols, will play some part in enabling and encouraging the more widespread use of in vitro techniques. Since in vitro toxicity testing methodology is evolving at such a rapid rate, this book can of necessity provide only a "snapshot" of the major techniques in use at the present time. As with the other publications in Humana Press' Methods in Molecular Biology series, the aim has been to supply information on the fundamental requirements for the establishment of new techniques within working laboratories and to describe a variety of basic in vitro methodologies. Certain of the techniques detailed here could more accurately be described as ex vivo rather than truly in vitro. No apology is made for the inclusion of these techniques.  In Situ Bioavailability and Toxicity of Organic Chemicals in Aquatic Systems English | 2022 | ISBN: 1071623524 | 305 Pages | PDF (True) | 6 MB This detailed volume examines the complex study of the assessment of in situ bioavailability and toxicity of organic chemicals in aquatic systems with a toolbox of reliable techniques. Beginning with a section on approaches for chemical analytical and bioanalytical techniques in bioavailability research, the book continues with methods to monitor effects in situ and conduct bioassays to assess the effects of complex environmental samples. It concludes with descriptions of various computational models. Written for the Methods in Pharmacology and Toxicology series, chapters feature the kind of expert implementation advice that leads to greater success in the field.  John F. Copper, "Human Rights in the People's Republic of China" English | ISBN: 0367014130 | 2019 | 344 pages | EPUB | 2 MB This book examines the effects that political institutions, the legal system, and economic policies have had on the human rights record in the PRC since 1949. The authors first address the problems of assessing political liberties in a nation that emphasizes economic over civil rights and that has traditionally valued collective rights over individual freedom. In later chapters the authors describe how various "target groups"-intellectuals, youth groups, women, and religious and racial minorities-have fared under communist leadership. Also included is a statistical analysis of the record of the PRC's judicial system, based on 38,000 cases of arrests, detentions, and sentences reported in the Chinese press. The authors assert that human rights violations were more serious during the Cultural Revolution than at any other time in recent history, although the situation did not receive much attention in the world press or among human rights advocates. The documents show that in recent years the human rights record has improved somewhat, but the authors conclude that current trends are most discouraging.
