NO ONE COUNTRY AND/OR INDIVIDUAL IS FREE FROM RISK OF INFECTIOUS DISEASE WHICH INCLUDES EMERGING AND RE- EMERGING DISEASES CAUSED BY BACTERIAL, VIRAL AND PARASITIC AGENTS. NEITHER DEVELOPMENT NOR POLITICAL AND GEOGRAPHICAL BOUNDARY MAKES ANY COUNTRY AND/OR INDIVIDUAL FREE FROM INFECTIOUS DISEASES INCLUDING THOSE CAUSED BY PARASITES . Giardia lamblia, Cryptosporidium parvum, Dientamoeba fragilis and Blastocystis hominis have socio- economic impacts to the society. The debilitated patient is unable to go to work/ school. The episodes of diarrhoea in animals due to Giaridia and Cryptospridium are also an added economic disadvantage on farmers. The problem involves human behaviour, environment, water, food, travel, animals, technology, absence of treatment, certainty to determine the role as pathogenic organism, change of work force and others. A multi- disciplinary approach involving agriculture, water, environment, education, public health, sociology and economic sectors is necessary to formulate policies on prevention and control of infectious diseases, with particular emphasis on emerging and re-emerging parasites.;https://c5-static.dodax.com/de-de/dp/KU0A6JK2TLU-9914c068db-64-64-1;https://c5-static.dodax.com/de-de/dp/KU0A6JK2TLU-cc42c03d8d-175-175-1;https://c5-static.dodax.com/de-de/dp/KU0A6JK2TLU-9f17d924daed1b-570-420-1;9783838391243;9783838391243;0;49.00;1;pc;11;;;;1 K7U47QQTD0R;Numerical Computation of the Sign of the Determinant;49.00;https://www.dodax.de/de-de/dp/K7U47QQTD0R/;Bücher / Naturwissenschaften, Medizin, Informatik & Technik / Informatik & EDV / Informatik;Accurate computation of the sign and the value of a matrix determinant attracts a great deal of attention. Various algebraic and geometric computations boil down to it. This includes the computation of a convex hull and a Voronoi diagram as well as the evaluation and expansion of scalar, univariate and multivariate resultants. In the present day computing environment, it is most effective to compute determinants numerically with IEEE standard double precision floating-point numbers provided rounding errors are controlled. That control is difficult where the input matrix is ill conditioned but easy where the matrix is well conditioned. This motivates the application of preconditioning methods. In this book, recent techniques of additive preconditioning are applied, the technicalities of this application are elaborated, and the power of the approach is demonstrated with numerical experiments. That book should be especially useful to professionals in Science and Engineering who are interested about the Numerical Computation approach, technicalities and applications to Matrices.;https://c5-static.dodax.com/de-de/dp/K7U47QQTD0R-9914c068db-64-64-1;https://c5-static.dodax.com/de-de/dp/K7U47QQTD0R-cc42c03d8d-175-175-1;https://c5-static.dodax.com/de-de/dp/K7U47QQTD0R-9f17d924daed1b-570-420-1;9783838376202;9783838376202;0;49.00;1;pc;11;;;;1 MT7DIK7082D;WATER CONSERVATION IN BIOFUELS DEVELOPMENT;79.00;https://www.dodax.de/de-de/dp/MT7DIK7082D/;Bücher / Naturwissenschaften, Medizin, Informatik & Technik / Biologie / Land- & Forstwirtschaft;Biochar was evaluated as a soil amendment in an Arizona soil in greenhouse and field experiments. Biochar is a porous charcoal substance that when used as a soil amendment effectively removes net carbon dioxide from the atmosphere (Lehmann, J. et al 2006). Biochar production from urban, agricultural and forestry biomass can help combat global climate change by displacing fossil fuel use, by sequestering carbon in soil carbon pools, and by dramatically reducing emissions of nitrous oxides, a more potent greenhouse gas than carbon dioxide. (Rondon, et al., 2005). As a soil amendment, biochar helps to improve crop yields and productivity and reduces the need for some chemical and fertilizer inputs (Glaser, et al., 2002, and Lehmann, et al., 2006). Biochar is produced by heating plant biomass without oxygen in a process known as pyrolysis.;https://c5-static.dodax.com/de-de/dp/MT7DIK7082D-9914c068db-64-64-1;https://c5-static.dodax.com/de-de/dp/MT7DIK7082D-cc42c03d8d-175-175-1;https://c5-static.dodax.com/de-de/dp/MT7DIK7082D-9f17d924daed1b-570-420-1;9783838392417;9783838392417;0;79.00;1;pc;11;;;;1 PLU10T6DMC3;Equivocation in Reunification for Taiwan and Mainland China;79.00;https://www.dodax.de/de-de/dp/PLU10T6DMC3/;Bücher / Sozialwissenschaften, Recht & Wirtschaft / Medien & Kommunikation / Kommunikationswissenschaft;In human communication, sending an unclear message is often regarded as failure or impoliteness. Nevertheless, it is not always the case that those who make explicit statements are the most successful communicators. Equivocal communication is widely employed by modern politicians, and it can also be possible to extend its scope further, to communication between nations. In this book, Bavelas et al.'s theory of equivocation is applied to analyze nine public texts (1979 2000) concerning the discussion of national reunification between Taiwan and Mainland China as their political communication is not normally conducted clearly and directly. A comparison will also be made between western societies and eastern societies to explore their different attitudes towards equivocation. The analysis should be especially useful to professionals in Communications and Social Psychology fields, or anyone else who may be considering utilizing ambiguity strategies for political diplomacy.;https://c5-static.dodax.com/de-de/dp/PLU10T6DMC3-9914c068db-64-64-1;https://c5-static.dodax.com/de-de/dp/PLU10T6DMC3-cc42c03d8d-175-175-1;https://c5-static.dodax.com/de-de/dp/PLU10T6DMC3-9f17d924daed1b-570-420-1;9783838377957;9783838377957;0;79.00;1;pc;11;;;;1 QU7A6DHD8CN;CHILDREN S PERCEPTIONS OF SCREEN VIOLENCE;49.00;https://www.dodax.de/de-de/dp/QU7A6DHD8CN/;Bücher / Naturwissenschaften, Medizin, Informatik & Technik / Informatik & EDV;The emergence of information and communication technologies (ICT), as a primary agent of socialisation, has raised concerns for child practitioners and researchers alike. This influential medium carries messages and images that have both positive and negative effects and are used in relative isolation from adult influences. A particular source of consternation is recent findings which suggest that violent screen' content is adversely impacting on children's behaviour, socialisation and social development. Working from a child participatory perspective, this study aimed to explore children's perceptions and experiences of screen' violence and the subsequent impact it has on their well-being. Within this process there is an attempt to understand how children assign meaning to these violent screen' images at an interpersonal and broader social level. This study utilised a broad epistemological framework of social constructionism and the theoretical perspectives of social learning theory, social reinforcement theory, social script theory, cue theory and framing theory are employed as theoretical base for the research..;https://c5-static.dodax.com/de-de/dp/QU7A6DHD8CN-9914c068db-64-64-1;https://c5-static.dodax.com/de-de/dp/QU7A6DHD8CN-cc42c03d8d-175-175-1;https://c5-static.dodax.com/de-de/dp/QU7A6DHD8CN-9f17d924daed1b-570-420-1;9783838380551;9783838380551;0;49.00;1;pc;11;;;;1 PU1HUUAQO1C;Comparison of Heavy Metals Removal Efficiency of some Biochars;54.90;https://www.dodax.de/de-de/dp/PU1HUUAQO1C/;Bücher / Naturwissenschaften, Medizin, Informatik & Technik / Chemie / Anorganische Chemie;Heavy metals are found abundant in the water sources due to the rapid industrial and agricultural development together with the population growth. Metals from polluted water bodies can then enter into the surrounding soil, surface water, and groundwater. Polluted water when consumed by living organisms, the toxic heavy metals can accumulate and cause harm. It is important to remove heavy metals from industrial sources before they enter into the environment. Conventional treatment processes for removal of heavy metals are either very expensive, generation of large volume of chemical sludge and extra operational cost are required for sludge disposal. The book is about to develop a low cost sorbent for effective removal of heavy metals from Industrial waste water and to determine removal efficiency of biosorbents (pine wood, paper mulberry wood/bark and rice husk bio-chars) in comparison with commercially available (silica powder) under different experimental conditions. Method of preparation of biochars and heavy metals removal efficiency of biochars has been described in detail.;https://c5-static.dodax.com/de-de/dp/PU1HUUAQO1C-9914c068db-64-64-1;https://c5-static.dodax.com/de-de/dp/PU1HUUAQO1C-cc42c03d8d-175-175-1;https://c5-static.dodax.com/de-de/dp/PU1HUUAQO1C-9f17d924daed1b-570-420-1;9783838395807;9783838395807;0;54.90;1;pc;11;;;;1 ROF5H1I7PF0;Municipal Solid Waste: Bangladesh Perspective;68.00;https://www.dodax.de/de-de/dp/ROF5H1I7PF0/;Bücher / Naturwissenschaften, Medizin, Informatik & Technik / Technik / Bau- & Umwelttechnik;The Municipal Solid Waste (MSW) generation, composition, physical and chemical characteristics, and the recovery potential are obtained in four major cities of Bangladesh. The amount of MSW generations are 5340, 520, 170 and 130 tons/day for Dhaka, Khulna, Rajshahi and Barisal city, respectively and the per capita waste generation rates are varied from 0.325 to 0.485 kg/day. In MSW stream, food and vegetable wastes range from 68.3 to 81.1%, while papers and plastics range from 7.2 to 10.7% and 3.1 to 4.3%, respectively. pH value varies from 7.70 to 8.69, while moisture and volatile solid contents vary from 56 to 70% and 43 to 71%, respectively. The highest and lowest calorific values are obtained as 20,467 kJ/kg for rubber and 5,907 kJ/kg for food wastes, respectively. In the context of Bangladesh, the MSW are suitable for composting since good concentrations of carbon, nitrogen, phosphorous and potassium, while incompatible for incineration due to high moisture and organic contents. The potential for waste recovery implies that about 21.64 million US$/yr can be earned from recycling and composting of municipal solid waste.;https://c5-static.dodax.com/de-de/dp/ROF5H1I7PF0-9914c068db-64-64-1;https://c5-static.dodax.com/de-de/dp/ROF5H1I7PF0-cc42c03d8d-175-175-1;https://c5-static.dodax.com/de-de/dp/ROF5H1I7PF0-9f17d924daed1b-570-420-1;9783838375663;9783838375663;0;68.00;1;pc;11;;;;1 PVT6L7BTCUU;Identification of the Root Causes of Software Project Failure;49.00;https://www.dodax.de/de-de/dp/PVT6L7BTCUU/;Bücher / Sozialwissenschaften, Recht & Wirtschaft / Wirtschaft / Management;Software failure is the biggest challenge faced by IT as well as business people in 21st century. Software industry is growing day by day and it is becoming more complex and diverse due to the increase in cost and rate of failure. Increase in complexity of software projects can produce a negative impact in the software productivity, deadline and efforts. Organizations are demanding high quality software products to increase their productivity and profits. It is common that companies are facing some serious software project failure problems even after spending a large sum of money. It's an alarming situation and the concerned parties should take effective steps to resolve software project failure problem. This high rate of software project failure is putting software industry on stake. So, there is a strong need to find the root causes of software project failure to mitigate them. This book will give you a better insight about the root causes of software project failure and it is possible link with inefficient management practices. There could be many factors responsible for the software projects failure, which are discussed in this book as well.;https://c5-static.dodax.com/de-de/dp/PVT6L7BTCUU-9914c068db-64-64-1;https://c5-static.dodax.com/de-de/dp/PVT6L7BTCUU-cc42c03d8d-175-175-1;https://c5-static.dodax.com/de-de/dp/PVT6L7BTCUU-9f17d924daed1b-570-420-1;9783838393940;9783838393940;0;49.00;1;pc;11;;;;1 QGUHIMH51PH;Corporate Orchestras - Concertos in We-major or We-minor?;59.00;https://www.dodax.de/de-de/dp/QGUHIMH51PH/;Bücher / Sozialwissenschaften, Recht & Wirtschaft / Wirtschaft / Management;Corporate Orchestras examines the intersection of corporate and individual identity in the modern workplace - particularly focusing on the tension between identities as individuals are welcomed into existing workplaces and the various induction and socialisation processes used to set the limits of expression for those identities. This works ask whether the collective endeavour of the modern workplace is in effect a concerto in We-major or We-minor - whether collective activity comes at the expense of individual identity and to what degree this is an expected, and accepted, norm in the underlying principles of the typical approach to induction programmes.;https://c5-static.dodax.com/de-de/dp/QGUHIMH51PH-9914c068db-64-64-1;https://c5-static.dodax.com/de-de/dp/QGUHIMH51PH-cc42c03d8d-175-175-1;https://c5-static.dodax.com/de-de/dp/QGUHIMH51PH-9f17d924daed1b-570-420-1;9783838389431;9783838389431;0;59.00;1;pc;11;;;;1 OPP82AJBHVP;Overcoming the Challenges of Youth Ministry;79.00;https://www.dodax.de/de-de/dp/OPP82AJBHVP/;Bücher / Geisteswissenschaften, Kunst, Musik / Religion & Theologie;This book points out the complex situation in which the youth of the Christ Church Lahore find themselves. One of the key problems is that the youth do not have a sound knowledge of the Bible, which makes them less effective in witnessing in a country like Pakistan. After a brief introduction of Lahore, Pakistan, the history of the Christ Church Lahore and its youth, as well as the history of the youth ministry laid a firm foundation for the study. It has been observed that the teens have been neglected, and this caused serious problems in their spiritual growth. Recognizing the basic needs of the young people will make the church in general and the Christ Church Lahore in particular aware how to care for their teens and to value this ministry. This book, therefore, provides a solid biblical based understanding to reach the youth in any culture and context. In this regard basic needs, functions, models, election and responsibilities of a team- centred youth ministry with a vision, goals and programmes are highlighted to bring the adolescents into a relationship with God. Hence, a valuable tool for church leaders and for all youth groups.;https://c5-static.dodax.com/de-de/d<
