The question lies at the centre of this collection, inviting us to challenge established conceptions of pluralism and understand South Asian ways of thinking about difference, diversity, and 'the other'. ![]() William C. Carter, "Proust in Love" English | ISBN: 0300108125 | 2006 | 280 pages | MOBI | 2 MB The acclaimed Proust biographer William C. Carter portrays Proust's amorous adventures and misadventures from adolescence through his adult years, supplying where appropriate Proust's own sensitive, intelligent, and often disillusioned observations about love and sexuality. Proust is revealed as a man agonizingly caught between the constant fear of public exposure as a homosexual and the need to find and express love. In telling the story of Proust in love, Carter also shows how the author's experiences became major themes in his novel In Search of Lost Time. ![]() Protracted Displacement in Asia (Law, Ethics and Governance) By Howard Adelman 2008 | 282 Pages | ISBN: 0754672387 | PDF | 2 MB In a protracted displacement situation, refugees are sequestered in camps without right of mobility or employment; their lives remain on hold and stagnate in a state of limbo for a long period. This book reviews the situation and results of research and policies that have left refugees as a forgotten group in protracted situations. This work features case studies by experts who conducted field work examining long-term protracted refugee situations in Nepal, Thailand and Bangladesh, the protracted internally displaced (IDP) situation in Sri Lanka, and the refugee and IDP situation in Afghanistan. Also discussed is an emerging protracted refugee and IDP problem in Iraq. This volume concludes with an analysis of the lessons learned and the applications for policy, and incorporates a valuable bibliography detailing research in this hugely important area. This is a critical resource for academics and policy makers concerned with migration and governance issues. ![]() Protein Mutations: Consequences On Structure, Functions, And Diseases by M Michael Gromiha English | October 7, 2024 | ISBN: 9811293252 | 396 pages | MOBI | 14 Mb Proteins perform various functions in living organisms. However, any mutation in the amino acid residues of a protein affects its structure and function. Some of these mutations may lead to diseases. These disease-causing mutations have an impact on protein structure, stability, and its binding affinity to complexes. Moreover, the study of amino acid mutation in proteins is important for developing therapeutic strategies. It is a pertinent and timely endeavor to provide comprehensive insights on the consequences of these mutations. The main highlights of this book are the effects of protein mutations on its various functions such as aggregation, folding, stability, binding affinity, and diseases, as well as a wide range of applications such as database development, computational algorithms, and drug design. It will be a platform to provide the up-to-date information and latest developments in the field and will serve as a single resource to get the information on comparative studies to delineate these mutational effects on protein folding, stability, and interactions, and for understanding the molecular basis of diseases. ![]() Protein Intake in Health and Disease by Victor R. Preedy English | July 30, 2025 | ISBN: 1032458275 | 510 pages | MOBI | 14 Mb Proteins are fundamental to human health, serving as building blocks for cellular structures, providing essential energy, and supporting tissue function. In Protein Intake in Health and Disease, the critical biomedical and nutritional roles of protein in the diet are explored in depth. Topics include protein quality, the impact of both low and high-protein diets, and the metabolic disorders and diseases linked to protein malnutrition. The book delves into protein's influence across the lifespan, from maternal health and early development to the nutritional needs of children, adolescents, and the aging population. Each chapter is enriched with practical insights for broader health applications and concise summary points to aid understanding. ![]() Protective Put Strategy to Shield Your Portfolio: ATR + Bollinger Bands English | Dec 21, 2025 | ISBN: 9798233509025 | 205 pages | EPUB (True) | 1.55 MB You've built your portfolio carefully over years-maybe decades-researching companies, timing entries, watching your wealth grow, and then one morning everything changes: the market crashes fifteen, twenty, thirty percent in a matter of weeks, and you're paralyzed with fear, watching your life savings evaporate while wondering if you should sell before it gets worse. This nightmare scenario plays out repeatedly in markets, destroying retirement plans and forcing investors to delay their dreams for years while they rebuild what was lost. The tragedy is that these catastrophic losses are almost entirely preventable if you know how to use protective puts combined with technical indicators that give you advance warning when volatility is about to explode. ![]() Protecting Building Occupants and Operations from Biological and Chemical Airborne Threats: A Framework for Decision Making By National Research Council 2007 | 152 Pages | ISBN: 0309109558 | PDF | 2 MB Protecting buildings and their occupants from biological and chemical attacks to ensure continuous building operations is seen as an urgent need in the Department of Defense, given recent technological advances and the changing threats. Toward this end, the Department of Defense established the Immune Building Program to develop protective systems to deter biological and chemical attacks on military facilities and minimize the impacts of attacks should they occur. At the request of the Defense Threat Reduction Agency, the National Research Council convened a committee to provide guiding principles for protecting buildings from airborne biological or chemical threat agents and outline the variables and options to consider in designing building protection systems. This report addresses such components of building protection as building design and planning strategies; heating, ventilating, and air-conditioning systems; filtration; threat detection and identification technologies; and operational responses. It recommends that building protection systems be designed to accommodate changing building conditions, new technologies, and emerging threats. Although the report's focus is on protection of military facilities, the guiding principles it offers are applicable to protection of public facilities as well. ![]() Prosthetics and Orthotics for Physical Therapists by M. Jason Highsmith English | June 16, 2025 | ISBN: 1041024274 | 266 pages | MOBI | 24 Mb Prosthetics and Orthotics for Physical Therapists provides physical therapy students, physical therapists, and other allied health clinicians with foundational knowledge in prosthetic and orthotic (P&O) topics. The text and its resources are efficient, impactful, and affordable, including an overview of the history of amputation, and artificial limb, prosthetic, and orthotic concepts, followed by a review of professional and educational concepts related to P&O. ![]() Neil H.
