Developed to operate without the need of a runway, the Harrier uses a unique system of four vectored-thrust nozzles and a number of small reaction control jets to allow vertical take-off and landing.;Employed in theatres of war all over the world, the Harrier is perhaps the most famous (in its Royal Navy Sea Harrier guise) for its part in the Falklands War and with British and American forces in the Gulf conflict. The Harrier is still an important front line type in the 21st century.;This book provides the reader with a wealth of photographic detail of the major Harrier variants. Showing important but seldom-seen details, this book should be useful to any aircraft enthusiast or modeller.  Hardheaded & Softhearted: Lessons from the Boardroom to the Break Room by Rick Belluzzo, Krish Dhanam English | August 15, 2013 | ISBN: 1612541267 | 153 pages | EPUB | 1.13 Mb Rick Belluzzo and Krish Dhanam offer their Lessons from the Boardroom to the Break Room based on their extensive experience with companies such as Microsoft, Hewlett Packard, Quantum, and the Zig Ziglar Corporation.

 Handbook of Speech-Language Therapy in Sub-Saharan Africa: Integrating Research and Practice by Ulrike M. Lüdtke, Edward Kija, Mathew Kinyua Karia 2023 | ISBN: 3031045033 | English | 828 pages | PDF | 31 MB This book synthesizes research on language development and communication disability in Sub-Saharan Africa and highlights best practices for providing speech and language therapy services to individuals with language, communication, and hearing disorders across the lifespan. The book brings together a wide range of international contributions from various disciplines, such as speech-language pathology, audiology, developmental psychology, language education, social work, neurology, neuropsychology, pediatrics, linguistics, pedagogy, and phonetics to provide perspectives on problems, challenges, ideas, concepts, and models to serve the people in Sub-Saharan Africa.  Rita de Cássia Veiga Marriott, "Handbook of Research on Collaborative Learning Using Concept Mapping" English | 2009 | ISBN: 1599049929 | PDF | pages: 548 | 15.9 mb Educators are now seeking new methodologies to respond to the demand for personal education and knowledge acquisition and production. Concept mapping, a powerful learning and teaching technique, provides these educators with new methods that are beginning to be implemented at all educational levels in many institutions worldwide.  Handbook of Neuroengineering English | 2023 | ISBN: 9811655391 | 3686 Pages | PDF (True) | 118 MB This Handbook serves as an authoritative reference book in the field of Neuroengineering. Neuroengineering is a very exciting field that is rapidly getting established as core subject matter for research and education. The Neuroengineering field has also produced an impressive array of industry products and clinical applications. It also serves as a reference book for graduate students, research scholars and teachers. Selected sections or a compendium of chapters may be used as "reference book" for a one or two semester graduate course in Biomedical Engineering. Some academicians will construct a "textbook" out of selected sections or chapters. The Handbook is also meant as a state-of-the-art volume for researchers. Due to its comprehensive coverage, researchers in one field covered by a certain section of the Handbook would find other sections valuable sources of cross-reference for information and fertilization of interdisciplinary ideas. Industry researchers as well as clinicians using neurotechnologies will find the Handbook a single source for foundation and state-of-the-art applications in the field of Neuroengineering. Regulatory agencies, entrepreneurs, investors and legal experts can use the Handbook as a reference for their professional work as well.  Keiko Hirose, "Handbook of Dynein" English | 2019 | pages: 436 | ISBN: 9814800015 | PDF | 30,8 mb Dyneins are molecular motors that are involved in various cellular processes, such as cilia and flagella motility, vesicular transport, and mitosis. Since the first edition of this book was published in 2012, there has been a significant breakthrough: the crystal structures of the motor domains of cytoplasmic dynein have been solved and the previously unknown details of this huge and complex molecule have been unveiled. This new edition contains 14 chapters written by researchers in the US, Europe, and Asia, including 3 new chapters that incorporate new fields. The other chapters have also been substantially updated. Compared with the earlier edition, this book focuses more on the motile mechanisms of dynein, especially by biophysical methods such as cryo-EM, X-ray crystallography, and single-molecule nanometry. It is a major handbook for frontline researchers as well as for advanced students studying cell biology, molecular biology, biochemistry, biophysics, and structural biology. |
