Download or read book World War I Battlefield Artillery Tactics written by Dale Clarke and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2014-12-20 with total page 66 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As the First World War bogged down across Europe resulting in the establishment of trench systems, artillery began to grow in military importance. Never before had the use of artillery been so vital, and to this day the ferocity, duration and widespread use of artillery across the trenches of Europe has never been replicated. Featuring specially commissioned full-colour artwork, this groundbreaking study explains and illustrates the enormous advances in the use of artillery that took place between 1914 and 1918, the central part artillery played in World War I and how it was used throughout the war, with particular emphasis on the Western Front.

Download or read book The Mis Behaviour of Markets written by Benoit B. Mandelbrot and published by Profile Books. This book was released on 2010-10-01 with total page 352 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This international bestseller, which foreshadowed a market crash, explains why it could happen again if we don't act now. Fractal geometry is the mathematics of roughness: how to reduce the outline of a jagged leaf or static in a computer connection to a few simple mathematical properties. With his fractal tools, Mandelbrot has got to the bottom of how financial markets really work. He finds they have a shifting sense of time and wild behaviour that makes them volatile, dangerous - and beautiful. In his models, the complex gyrations of the FTSE 100 and exchange rates can be reduced to straightforward formulae that yield a much more accurate description of the risks involved.

Download or read book Environmental Law and Economics written by Klaus Mathis and published by Springer. This book was released on 2017-04-07 with total page 542 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This anthology discusses important issues surrounding environmental law and economics and provides an in-depth analysis of its use in legislation, regulation and legal adjudication from a neoclassical and behavioural law and economics perspective. Environmental issues raise a vast range of legal questions: to what extent is it justifiable to rely on markets and continued technological innovation, especially as it relates to present exploitation of scarce resources? Or is it necessary for the state to intervene? Regulatory instruments are available to create and maintain a more sustainable society: command and control regulations, restraints, Pigovian taxes, emission certificates, nudging policies, etc. If regulation in a certain legal field is necessary, which policies and methods will most effectively spur sustainable consumption and production in order to protect the environment while mitigating any potential negative impact on economic development? Since the related problems are often caused by scarcity of resources, economic analysis of law can offer remarkable insights for their resolution. Part I underlines the foundations of environmental law and economics. Part II analyses the effectiveness of economic instruments and regulations in environmental law. Part III is dedicated to the problems of climate change. Finally, Part IV focuses on tort and criminal law. The twenty-one chapters in this volume deliver insights into the multifaceted debate surrounding the use of economic instruments in environmental regulation in Europe.

This book was released on 2019-12-18 with total page 193 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents an in-depth look at the state of transnational education and comparative perspectives on education systems between Germany and other nation states. It explores how a transnational education identity in secondary and tertiary institutions has developed in the German and other national contexts and which lessons can be learned from current challenges and successes of education systems. It uses detailed case studies to promote critical rethinking of current educational practices in high schools and universities, specifically of race, gender, religion and learner ability in educational settings. It understands learning and teaching as an arena to discuss transnational education opportunities in the 21st century as an emerging or evolving discourse on contemporary forms of transnationalism.

Download or read book Inside Immigration Law written by Dr Tobias G Eule and published by Ashgate Publishing, Ltd.. This book was released on 2014-05-28 with total page 173 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Inside Immigration Law analyses the practice of implementing immigration law, examining the different political and organisational forces that influence the process. Based on unparalleled academic access to the German migration management system, this book provides new insights into the ‘black box’ of regulating immigration, revealing how the application of immigration law to individual cases can be chaotic, improvised and sometimes arbitrary, and either informed or distorted by the complex, politically laden and changeable nature of both German and EU immigration laws. Drawing on extensive empirical material, including participant observation, interviews and analyses of public as well as confidential documents in German immigration offices, Inside Immigration Law unveils the complex practices of decision-making and work organisation in a politically contested environment. A comparative, critical evaluation of the work of offices that examines the discretion and client interactions of bureaucrats, the management of legal knowledge and symbolism and the relationships between immigration offices and external political forces, this book will be of interest to sociologists, legal scholars and political scientists working in the areas of migration, integration and the study of work and organisations.

Book excerpt: From the Best Selling author Dr. Kasia Kines. Take your life back! For anyone suffering from Epstein-Barr Virus (EBV), chronic fatigue, autoimmune disorders, Infectious Mononucleosis, or other mystery illnesses, this is a must read!Do you feel lost and hopeless, living a life of illness with no answers? Do you feel unsupported by your medical team, left to suffer alone with no guidance? Are you searching for solutions to get your health and life back on track?Finally, a book that speaks to both the medical community and people inflicted by both mono and chronic conditions caused by EBV!The expanse of this pivotal book is far reaching - many people may not yet know they have been infected with EBV (commonly known as the "kissing disease"), but yet they struggle every day with chronic symptoms such as severe brain fog, debilitating fatigue, headaches, fever, chills, sore throat, body aches, and abdominal discomfort and can't seem to find a successful treatment solution.Eventually, some go on to develop autoimmune disorders, e.g. Lupus, Multiple Sclerosis, or Hashimoto's Thyroiditis and even cancer and are told that their immune system is simply confused and is now attacking itself, left with no solutions or hope for recovery.Alarmingly, chronic EBV infection is almost completely missed in medical practice, and as a result of never being tested, misinterpreting the test results, not being diagnosed, or being mis-diagnosed by their doctors, millions of people suffer debilitating conditions for many years with no answers.But this suffering can be avoided. And with this book, answers can be found.Author Dr. Kasia Kines is considered by her colleagues to be "one of the most brilliant, and importantly, clinically experienced functional nutritionists in the world." In Epstein-Barr Virus Solution, Dr. Kines provides a groundbreaking examination of EBV and not only how it causes chronic fatigue, autoimmune disorders, and even cancer but also how recovery is possible. This book was written in hopes that it will globally change the way EBV is understood, diagnosed, and treated.The deep journey into the existing research sheds light on the EBV virus for both the seasoned medical community and the layperson. Along with the validated research, Epstein-Barr Virus Solution presents practical, time-tested, and evidence-based clinical solutions for the testing and medical nutrition therapy for EBV, testing and lab interpretation, unique supplementation protocols, recovery strategies for stress, insomnia, fatigue, and toxicity, pantry and kitchen rehab for EBV, and delicious anti-EBV recipes. Through Dr. Kines' compassionate guidance, readers will feel confident to discuss their concerns with their doctor, to ask for testing, and to take their lives back from EBV. Epstein-Barr Virus Solution urges medical providers to hear their clients' concerns and provides the medical community with the research and insights needed to avoid misdiagnosis and common problems with testing for EBV.Epstein-Barr Virus Solution was made possible because of Dr. Kines' long-standing expertise as a functional clinical nutritionist who has dedicated her practice to working with clients inflicted by EBV. Dr. Kines tells readers in easy-to-understand language that recovery and hope for better health are possible through targeted nutrition and lifestyle changes. Readers are given a toolkit full of practical advice and guidance, including exclusive materials from Dr. Kines' life-changing 30-Day Detox Program that she has taught successfully for over 10 years.The research is out there, and Dr. Kasia Kines has found it, synthesized it, and utilized it to implement successful treatment protocols in her own clinic. Clients who had suffered years with chronic EBV infection symptoms are now recovering and living their lives.This book will provide those infected with EBV everything they need to finally take control of their health and take their life and happiness back.

Download or read book Bioeconomy for Beginners written by Joachim Pietzsch and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2020-03-06 with total page 221 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides an interdisciplinary and comprehensible introduction to bioeconomy. It thus provides basic knowledge for understanding a transformation process that will shape the 21st century and requires the integration of many disciplines and industries that have had little to do with each other up to now. We are talking about the gradual and necessary transition from the age of fossil fuels, which began around 200 years ago, to a global economy based on renewable raw materials (and renewable energies). The success of this transition is key to coping with the challenge of climate change. This book conceives the realization of bioeconomy as a threefold task – a scientific, an economic and an ecological one. · Where does the biomass come from that we need primarily for feeding the growing world population but also for future energy and material use? How can it be processed in biorefineries and what role does biotechnology play in this regard? · Which aspects of innovation economics need to be considered, which economic aspects of value creation, competitiveness and customer acceptance are important? · What conditions must a bioeconomy fulfil in order to enable a sustainable development of life on earth? May it be regarded as a key to further economic growth or shouldn’t it rather orient itself towards the ideal of sufficiency? By dealing with these questions from the not necessarily consistent perspectives of proven experts, this book provides an interdisciplinary overview of a dynamic field of research and practice that raises more questions than answers and thus may nurture the motivation of many more people to seriously engage for the realization of a bioeconomy.
