 Free Download Australian Caves and Karst Systems by John Webb, Susan White, Garry K. Smith English | EPUB (True) | 2023 | 395 Pages | ISBN : 3031242661 | 319 MB This book, part of the series Cave and Karst Systems of the World, begins with a review of the interaction between people and caves in Australia (including conservation), followed by descriptions of the spectacular cave diving sites, before comprehensively covering all the major carbonate and noncarbonate karst areas, subdivided by rock type and region, and including the origin of the caves. This is followed by broad overviews of cave minerals and speleothems, cave biology and cave fossils. Each section was written by one or more specialists in the topic and is illustrated by clear diagrams and superb colour photos. The book emphasises the unique aspects of the Australian karst, including the variability in the age of the caves (very old to very young) and the impact of isolation on the stygofauna, as well as the vertebrate fossils preserved in the caves. Written in an easy-to-read style, the book is a primary reference guide to Australian karst and represents a valuable asset for anyone interested in the topic, not only cavers and academics.
 Free Download Lorenz B Puntel, "Auf Der Suche Nach Dem Gegenstand Und Dem Theoriestatus Der Philosophie: Philosophiegeschichtlich-Kritische Studien" Deutsch | 2007 | pages: 323 | ISBN: 3161493281 | PDF | 2,0 mb English summary: The critical essays on the history of philosophy and on contemporary philosophy reprinted in this volume, which were written and published over the course of many years, focus on the two central problems indicated by the terms subject matter and theoretical status, which appear in the volume's title. The essays reveal the background, in the history of philosophy, of the structural-systematic conception of philosophy Lorenz B. Puntel presents in his book Struktur und Sein.. Ein Theorierahmen fur eine systematische Philosophie (Mohr Siebeck, 2006). In this previous work, the conception of philosophy envisaged in the essays and presented in the book has a unique but genuine theoretical status, one identifying its subject matter as the universal structures of the world or of actuality as a whole. German description: Dieser Band enthalt Aufsatze, die Lorenz B. Puntel uber einen langen Zeitraum hinweg veroffentlicht hat. Das Verhaltnis der Philosophie zu ihrer Geschichte wird im ersten Beitrag umfassend geklart, wodurch die Basis geschaffen wird, um die anderen Studien richtig zu situieren. Diese kreisen um die beiden zentralen Probleme 'Gegenstand' und 'Theoriestatus' der Philosophie. Einerseits werden einige der grossen Vertreter der Idee der philosophia perennis untersucht, vor allem: Thomas von Aquin, Kant, Fichte, Hegel, Heidegger, anderseits einige Vertreter der analytischen Philosophie, zum Beispiel Carnap, Quine und Tugendhat. Besonders die Arbeiten zu Thomas von Aquin und Hegel bieten eine originelle und fur die kritische Durchdringung der Grundproblematik der Gegenwartsphilosophie wichtige Deutung. Alle Studien berucksichtigen jene Dichotomie zwischen analytischer und sogenannter kontinental-europaischer Philosophie, welche die heutige philosophische Lage entscheidend pragt, und versuchen, diese gerade dadurch zu uberwinden, dass sowohl der genuine Gegenstand der Philosophie als auch ihr spezifischer Theoriestatus durch die Analyse bedeutender philosophiegeschichtlicher Gestalten herausgearbeitet werden. Diese Aufsatze stellen einige der wichtigsten Etappen des philosophischen Weges des Autors dar, der schliesslich zur Entwicklung einer struktural-systematischen Konzeption der Philosophie und zu ihrer Darstellung in dem 2006 (bei Mohr Siebeck) erschienenen Werk Struktur und Sein. Ein Theorierahmen fur eine systematische Philosophie gefuhrt hat.

Over five months of desperate fighting in 1916 the British wrestled with the Germans for control of a narrow strip of innocuous French countryside. When the fighting petered out the British had barely pushed back the Germans from their original positions for a combined casualty figure of over a million men. But after 80 years this notorious episode in western military history deserves to be reassessed.  Free Download Atmospheric Re-Entry Vehicle Mechanics by Patrick Gallais English | PDF | 2007 | 65 Pages | ISBN : 3540736468 | 20.2 MB Ballistic reentry vehicles, capsules and planetary probes are the fastest human designed objects to fly through planet's atmospheres. With velocities over Mach 20, RV's have to dissipate a huge kinetic energy, and environment may exceed 100 g's at center of mass, 100 bars stagnation pressure and 100 MW/m² on nosetip. Design of thermal protection system is a formidable material engineering problem. Vehicle conception covers large discipline realms, among which Aerodynamics and Flight Mechanics are essential as they only can provide necessary aeroshell shape, mass and inertia properties and tolerances to achieve adequate environment and trajectory performance. Capsules and probes have different missions and entry conditions but approaches and methods are identical. Based on a long engineering experience, this book offers a comprehensive and state of the art analysis of aerodynamic and flight mechanic entry topics. In addition, it provides a large set of application exercises and solutions. It is addressed to university and engineering school students, as well as engineers in aerospace companies and government agencies, or simply curious readers.  Free Download Atmospheric Physics: Background - Methods - Trends by Ulrich Schumann English | PDF (True) | 2012 | 884 Pages | ISBN : 3642301827 | 32.1 MB On the occasion of the 50th anniversary of the Institute of Atmospheric Physics of the German Aerospace Center (DLR), this book presents more than 50 chapters highlighting results of the institute's research.
 Free Download Atlas of the Mammalian Ovary: Morphological Dynamics and Potential Role of Innate Immunity by Katharina Spanel-Borowski English | PDF | 2012 | 149 Pages | ISBN : 3642305342 | 32 MB In the era of molecular biology, an atlas that allows a rapid understanding of the complexity of ovarian processes is urgently needed. In this book, the author draws upon her own research, conducted over the past three decades, to provide a unique compilation of high-quality illustrations that offer illuminating insights in a readily accessible form. The ovarian follicles, the corpus luteum, and the interstitial cortex are presented as precisely controlled homeostatic compartments. Physiologic cell death forms and leukocyte subtypes are clearly depicted, and the various steps in the ovulatory process are demonstrated in detail. Further topics addressed include the microvascular bed, the plasticity of intraovarian nerves as part of the remodelling processes in the polycystic and the menopausal ovary, and the role of cytokeratin-positive cells as messengers of innate immunity. This atlas will be a fascinating and informative resource for both trainees and more experienced professionals.

Free Download John J. Pasquini, "Atheist Persona: Causes and Consequences" English | 2014 | pages: 189 | ISBN: 0761863311, 0761863303 | PDF | 1,7 mb In the past, as in the present, science has explored the reasons for belief. In recent years, with the rise of categorical, practical, and militant atheism, the scientific and philosophical community has begun studying the worldview of atheism. The Atheist Persona: Causes and Consequences is a summary of the most recent research, by the best of scholars, on the subject of atheism. In an effort to create a more courteous dialogue between theists and atheists, this book acknowledges that while there are reasons for believing in God, there are also reasons for not believing in God. Atheist Persona showcases how the worldview we choose to accept determines how we live our lives and how we influence those around us. |
