Download or read book Environmental and Social economic Impacts of Sewage Sludge Treatment written by Guofeng Zhang and published by Springer. This book was released on 2015-11-06 with total page 90 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents an experimental simulation of sewage treatment, which is designed to evaluate the environmental and social-economic impacts of integrated sewage treatment policies. The author puts forward a comprehensive linear optimization simulation model that takes the environmental, energy and economic systems into consideration. Beijing was selected as a typical Chinese city for the purposes of simulation, and the comprehensive model employed realistically reflects the specific and unique characteristics of Beijing’s social economy and environmental status. Given the importance of sewage treatment and the accurate assessment of its impacts, the book will be of interest to researchers and scholars of environmental economics.
Download or read book Bernard Stiegler written by Bart Buseyne and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2024-01-25 with total page 265 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Honouring the memory of the late Bernard Stiegler, this edited collection presents a broad spectrum of contributions that provide a complex and coherently articulated image of Stiegler's thought which reached beyond the boundaries of academic, artistic and experimental techno-scientific enclaves where it had been originally received. Stiegler's philosophical work encompassed theorization, social diagnosis, planning, practical and territorial experimentation, politics, and aesthetics. In its wake, the essays in this volume celebrate and explore the wealth of this multi-dimensional legacy. They examine the conditions of human life in general, its foundational intermittence, and carry forward Stiegler's post-phenomenological unfolding of the distinctive spatio-temporalities that weave together the epoch we call 'present'. Engaging closely with Stiegler's original impetus for the creation of technologies of care, as well as of communities of knowledge and artistic practice,
Download or read book Technology and Isolation written by Clive Lawson and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2017-03-30 with total page 243 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: By reconsidering the theme of isolation in the philosophy of technology, and by drawing upon recent developments in social ontology, Lawson provides an account of technology that will be of interest and value to those working in a variety of different fields. Technology and Isolation includes chapters on the philosophy, history, sociology and economics of technology, and contributes to such diverse topics as the historical emergence of the term 'technology', the sociality of technology, the role of technology in social acceleration, the relationship between Marx and Heidegger, and the relationship between technology and those with autism. The central contribution of the book is to provide a new ontology of technology. In so doing, Lawson argues that much of the distinct character of technology can be explained or understood in terms of the dynamic that emerges from technology's peculiar constitutional mix of isolatable and non-isolatable components.

Download or read book The Politics of Digital Pharmacology written by Felix Heidenreich and published by transcript Verlag. This book was released on 2022-09-30 with total page 127 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Digitization is transforming our world economically, culturally, and psychologically. The influx of new forms of communication, networking, and business opportunities, as well as new types of distraction, self-observation, and control into our societies represents an epochal challenge. Following Bernard Stiegler's concept of pharmacology, Felix Heidenreich and Florian Weber-Stein propose to view these new forms as digital pharmaka. Properly dosed, they can enable new self-relationships and forms of sociality; in the case of overdose, however, there is a risk of intoxication. In this essay, Felix Heidenreich, Florian Weber-Stein, and, in a detailed interview, Bernard Stiegler analyze this complex change in our world and develop new skills to use digital pharmaka.
Download or read book Does the Internet Have an Unconscious written by Clint Burnham and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2018-05-31 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Does the Internet Have an Unconscious? is both an introduction to the work of Slavoj Žižek and an investigation into how his work can be used to think about the digital present. Clint Burnham uniquely combines the German idealism, Lacanian psychoanalysis, and Marxist materialism found in Žižek's thought to understand how the Internet, social and new media, and digital cultural forms work in our lives and how their failure to work structures our pathologies and fantasies. He suggests that our failure to properly understand the digital is due to our lack of recognition of its political, aesthetic, and psycho-sexual elements. Mixing autobiographical passages with critical analysis, Burnham situates a Žižekian theory of digital culture in the lived human body.

Download or read book Returning to Judgment written by Ben Turner and published by State University of New York Press. This book was released on 2023-03-01 with total page 338 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Returning to Judgment provides the first extensive treatment of political judgment in the work of Bernard Stiegler and the first account of his significance for contemporary continental political thought. Ben Turner argues that Stiegler breaks with his predecessors in continental philosophy by advocating for, rather than retreating from, the task of proposing totalizing judgments on political problems that extend beyond the local and the particular. He shows that the reconciliation of judgment with continental political thought's commitment to anti-totalization structures the entirety of Stiegler's philosophy and demonstrates that this theory of the political decision highlights the difficulties that contemporary political ontology faces when addressing global and large-scale political problems. The book provides an overview of Stiegler's philosophy useful for those unfamiliar with his thought, shows how he draws on key influences including Deleuze, Derrida, Freud, and Simondon to develop his conception of judgment, and considers the challenges and consequences of his embrace of totalizing political decisions.

Download or read book PRINS and PNA Technologies in Chromosomal Investigations written by Franck Pellestor and published by Nova Publishers. This book was released on 2007 with total page 208 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Book & CD. Advances in molecular biotechnology have greatly improved the sensitivity and the efficiency of methods utilised for genetic investigations and diagnosis. In the domain of chromosome analysis, the introduction of molecular techniques has led to the development of a new approach, called Molecular Cytogenetics, which has surpassed previously available techniques to become a foremost biological method. The fluorescence in situ hybridisation (FISH) is quickly became the standard technique for in situ chromosomal investigations, as illustrated by its large variety of applications in research and diagnosis. However, during the last decade, alternative methods to FISH have been introduced and have shown to be valuable in detecting chromosomes and quantifying chromosomal abnormalities. These alternative procedures are the Primed IN Situ (PRINS) labelling and the Peptide Nucleic Acid (PNA) probes. The two procedures present several advantages for the in situ detection of nucleic acid sequences, such as the small size of PNA probes and PRINS primers, or the fast kinetics of PRINS and PNA labelling reactions, that make them very attractive for a number of cytogenetic purposes. This book provides a valuable introduction and overview of the principles and the applications of alternative approaches in the field of molecular cytogenetics.
