![]() Roger Balm, "Archaeology's Visual Culture: Digging and Desire " English | ISBN: 1138941158 | 2015 | 286 pages | EPUB | 4 MB Archaeology's Visual Culture explores archaeology through the lens of visual culture theory. The insistent visuality of archaeology is a key stimulus for the imaginative and creative interpretation of our encounters with the past. Balm investigates the nature of this projection of the visual, revealing an embedded subjectivity in the imagery of archaeology and acknowledging the multiplicity of meanings that cohere around artifacts, archaeological sites and museum displays. Using a wide range of case studies, the book highlights how archaeologists can view objects and the consequences that ensue from these ways of seeing. ![]() Anthony J Barham, "Archaeological Sediments and Soils: Analysis, Interpretation and Management " English | ISBN: 1138404977 | 2017 | pages | EPUB | 4 MB A collection of papers focusing on the links between archaeology and the study of geological sediments and soils. ![]() Applied Soil Chemistry English | 2021 | ISBN: 1119710189 | 271 Pages | PDF | 15 MB This book explores the state-of-the-art information regarding applied soil sciences.

Royle, "Anglo-Korean Relations and the Port Hamilton Affair, 1885-1887 " English | ISBN: 1848935811 | 2017 | 180 pages | EPUB | 4 MB In April 1885 the British navy seized the small archipelago of Port Hamilton (now Geomundo) off Korea, an incident dubbed the Port Hamilton Affair. This was part of a larger story of Empire and East Asian geopolitics involving China, Japan, Korea and Russia. At the time Britain and Russia seemed close to war over Afghanistan, and taking the islands, with their sheltered anchorage, would deny them to Russia while they might be useful in any blockade of the Russian fleet in Vladivostok. However, even in this imperial era, there were qualms about seizing inhabited territory belonging to a friendly nation, if only through the precedent it may set for others - particularly Russia - to do the same. Thus, Britain stressed that occupation was temporary and attempted to gain legitimate control anyway, through issuing leases. In the event, after much political posturing from East Asian nations, given that the geopolitical situation improved and there was no war with Russia, the British, after assurances that Russia would not take Port Hamilton, slipped away in February 1887. Geomundo returned to obscurity. ![]() Anesthesiologist's Manual of Surgical Procedures 6th Edition English | 2020 | ISBN: 1496371259 | 3469 Pages | PDF (conv) | 66 MB Covering both surgical and anesthetic considerations, Anesthesiologist's Manual of Surgical Procedures, Sixth Edition, is an essential resource for formulation of an anesthetic plan and perioperative management of patients.

Behre, Susan Nieschlag, "Andrology: Male Reproductive Health and Dysfunction" English | 2009 | pages: 646 | ISBN: 3540783547, 3662517388 | EPUB | 73,5 mb The decade that has passed since publication of the second edition of this textbook has not only witnessed a tremendous increase in knowledge within the ? eld of and- logy, but also seen the ? eld itself achieve a newfound status within the medical p- fession. Knowledge and status have been of mutual bene? t to the ? eld and the growing critical mass of diagnostic and therapeutic possibilities have caused andrology to be recognized as a medical subspecialty in some countries such as Germany, Poland, and Estonia. The European Academy of Andrology (EAA) served as a pacemaker for this development and continues to strive for establishment of andrology as a clinical ? eld. Well-designed curricula and qualifying examinations have contributed to the of? cial recognition of andrology as a speciality. This recognition of the ? eld helps patients with andrological problems to ? nd the specialist they seek. This textbook summarizes the current state of knowledge in the ? eld of andrology. It is a source of knowledge to all those who are or want to become andrologists. In addition, as andrology is clearly an interdisciplinary ? eld, this book may serve as a compendium and source of reference for all those physicians and biologists active in neighboring areas, who want to obtain an overview of andrology and who require information on special problems. The extensive references are timely and up to date. ![]() Steven R Simms, "Ancient Peoples of the Great Basin and Colorado Plateau" English | ISBN: 1598742965 | 2008 | 383 pages | EPUB | 4 MB Written to appeal to professional archaeologists, students, and the interested public alike, this book is a long overdue introduction to the ancient peoples of the Great Basin and northern Colorado Plateau.
